Ahh okay. Thanks.Nah. They’re just known as Sporting Lisbon in casual English because their name is Sporting Clube and they’re from Lisbon. Makes it easier for Non Portuguese speaking fans who wouldn’t know where they’re from.

Ya I get it it’s what people here it’s just the wrong thing. Shocking how it even started to begin with you knowTo be fair Im 59 and in this country its always been reported/called as Sporting Lisbon. Just shows what the media knows eh?
Sheer stupidity at this point. Not sure how many times people need telling but if they don't get it by now then I don't hold out hope they ever will.How do you people STILL not understand what Sport Witness actually does?
Sky etc have called them Sporting Lisbon since before we signed Ronaldo, so it spread from there.Is this some kind of ‘Mandela Effect’ thing because I, and evidently a lot of others, am so sure the official name is/was Sporting Lisbon
It's gotta be, Lisbon has always been in the name in my memory.Is this some kind of ‘Mandela Effect’ thing because I, and evidently a lot of others, am so sure the official name is/was Sporting Lisbon
All they had to say was Sporting tbf. Also why don’t emojis work when on the forum through iPhone?I can't be sure so dont take this as the correct answer, maybe it was some lazy ass Journo/tv presenter couldn't pronounce you're proper name correctly similar to they way they refer to Bayern Munchen as Bayern Munich due to the English having problems pronouncing the word Munchen, and why they use Bayern instead of Bavaria.
Anyway thanks for teaching my old ass something new.
Red Star Belgrade is similar. Their name in Serbian is Crvena zvezda which translates just to Red Star. But they’re called Red Star Belgrade in casual English used by the broadcasters.Ahh okay. Thanks.
Dangerously near Scouseland there. Hope he closes his eyes tight and doesn't look out the window.Just going past Wrexham, which is the best thing to do.
Could be talking about Sporting Kansas CityAll they had to say was Sporting tbf. Also why don’t emojis work when on the forum through iPhone?
I can 100% guarantee that was not nor was it ever Sportings name. Some journalist started it I am assuming and it stuck form there on out. As I pointed out before “Lisbon” has never been in our name. In comparison Benfica HAVE “Lisbon” in there name but no one says “Benfica Lisbon” when In fact it makes a lot more sense.Is this some kind of ‘Mandela Effect’ thing because I, and evidently a lot of others, am so sure the official name is/was Sporting Lisbon
Didn’t know this either!Red Star Belgrade is similar. Their name in Serbian is Crvena zvezda which translates just to Red Star. But they’re called Red Star Belgrade in casual English used by the broadcasters.

Not when they decided to made and article of Sporting never increase the bid to 80m euro.I’m talking about you not understanding them. Sport Witness do not write their own stories. They translate reports from non English sources.
Why don’t you actually read the article, mate?Not when they decided to made and article of Sporting never increase the bid to 80m euro.
