Talk:Dundee East End F.C.

Are we absolutely sure that the club was ever called Dundee East End and the Dundee has not been added to the name by more recent writers to avoid confusion as to where the club was from (or mistaken for another club like the current East End F.C. in Aberdeen?). I note that Dundee F.C.'s website simply calls it "East End".[1] When looking at some newspapers from when the club existed a few years ago, I could only find it being called just East End Football Club, with the occasional East End (Dundee). Also Jim Wilkie's history of football in the city of Dundee Across the Great Divide only refers to the club as East End or East End (Dundee). Therefore I have serious doubts that Dundee East End was ever its name and so the page might need to be renamed. Dunarc (talk) 20:54, 5 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
