The Liver Bird. But it’s just a mythological one.

Mings might well be fit for this game, so him and Lindelof could start.

Walsall Town Swifts in their first game.

I just knew you would get that.

PS. Things such as Heanor Town/Dukla Pibram don't count.

Sheffield Wrensday?

Hopefully we don't slack off like we did at Bruges (league stage) or Monaco, or they'll be dancing in the streets of Go Ahead tomorrow evening.
Tomorrow ?

You're always a day away.

We have played four other sides with a bird in their name.
Swansea are one, who are the other three ?

One of them you have to go back to the 19th century.
One of them we played in Europe and it is their correct full name .
The other we played in a one off game (think Swansea above).

*Willing to be corrected if there are more.

Blackpool and Blackburn Rovers.

Think that's colours rather than birds 🐦
