Royal "we". Mea culpa. Though I'm clearly not alone in this - the newly crowned Europa League winners. That double "r" is often overlooked, as in yesterday, all over the place.
Allowing some leeway for diacritics and changes of language (it's not Koln but then it's not Cologne either), what other clubs are routinely misspelled*? Some have a convenient abbreviation (PSV), and of course many full names are not used even by their own supporters, so we don't need to drown in pedantry. Looking more for the Middlesboroughs of world football.
