[Talk-GB] Should football clubs be tagged in their own right?

[Tom Crocker]

Thanks everyone. I'd wondered about brand rather than operator but can see
operator=[some football club] is used on at least some stadia. I'd want to
know the specifics of the stadium to do that. Still, adding the clubs and
detagging the pitches seems uncontroversial (but I won't be running round
doing it quickly).

Thanks again

Tom
