I have to agree with Martin here that this seems so silly an issue
that it needs 2 tags that mean the same thing, just because someone
has a bee in their bonnet about it, all they need to do is have a
preset file localised to the UK and they'll never see the word soccer
anywhere, unless they want to view the raw data.
