Lets remember the Cardiff owner is Malaysian, not Thai, and that the changes at Hull were designed to allow them to have some distinction from all the other teams called City in English football. MK Dons (or Wimbledon as they were) had almost no choice but to move to a new city, they had no ground and they had no local councils who wanted them in London, so a move to MK was by far their best option. We already have probably the most unique name in world football, so there is no need to change that, Sheffield is the 4th largest city in England, so the potential is there and our main rivals wear red, so unlike the Cardiff situation that change would be a non-starter straight away!!
