In my early days in the Birmingham Works League I'm sure I once played against Ansells Villa.

I can only think of a few clubs with unique names: Port Vale, Sheffield Wednesday, Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest, Crewe Alexandra, MK Dons . Anyone think of anymore? Probably a few in Scotland

Hamilton Academical, Iverness Caledonian Thistle
Celtic.

There's a Farsley Celtic too.
