And we don't do 'movin on' or 'gettin over it'.

450,000 applications for Irish passports from the UK recently, I hear. Get your spoke in now TB before they're all gone.

Wee Jimmie Crankie will no doubt be inviting me to apply for a Scottish one as soon as she can get some printed.

Just do a complete reset on it. The name and imagery are totally intertwined.

I understood that was the intention. The tag Chiefs is a traditional one, not a marketing device.

Look the fact is they have been called the Chiefs for so long the only people who will avoid the name will be the BBC and media but most rugby players old school will refer to Exeter as the chief.

I went to a school were the head master was referred to as the chief -- nobody considered him an Indian red or otherwise.

Words are not racist only the ears that hear and the minds that think racist .

The unfortunate thing is the fans who don the headdress

The unfortunate and inappropriate thing is the club badge.
