AFT!! (about f****** time)!! Horray!! Now all we need to do is get the rights back to the Rowdies theme song from Paul McCartney! The name "FC Tampa Bay" had all the joy of a paramilitary unit designation. I heard a Rodney Marsh interview somewhere on the web a few years ago where he said he owned the Rowdies name and that is was worth absolutely zero (at that time it probably was, before this incarnation of the Rowdies). Dollar wise it probably was, though in reality it is priceless. He must have given the name to that Texas company, only to be pulled off at halftime. I'm very, very excited and hope the boys are extremely proud to be Tampa Bay Rowdies! Is Ralphs Mob now considering changing name to Loudies (maybe a compromise- "Ralphs Mob Loudies") They certainly qualify, being a stadium full of loud cheer energy! It's high time we got some damn Wowdies!

As a proud member of RALPH'S MOB, I don't foresee our supporters' group being renamed the "Loudies". In this new chapter of the Rowdies legacy, We are looking to cement ourselves as one of the more popular Supporters' Groups in North America!
I am absolutely ecstatic about the news of us acquiring the naming rights & identity that was ours to begin with. I wasn't around during the old NASL day, so I cannot imagine how exciting this news is to those fans who've followed this club since the beginning.

LET'S GO ROWDIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
