Sanguis Et Sudor Secundi Locus: 2014

SANGUIS ET SUDOR SECUNDI LOCUS
5th December, 2014
 

Following the news that Suphanburi FC had redesigned their club badge to include a Latin motto - "Modestia, Peseverantia, Probitas" (Discipline, Perseverance, Honesty) - I wrote to the Chonburi management, to request that we do the same to reflect our habit of finishing as TPL runners-up - five times in seven seasons. Below are the ten Latin phrases I suggested as choices for us to adopt. Which is your favourite?
 
Semper Secundus - Always second
 
Chonburi Secundus Ceterus Nusquam - Chonburi second, the rest nowhere
 
Venimus Et Nos Vidimus Complevit Secundo - We came, we saw, we finished second
 
Sanguis Et Sudor Secundi Locus - Blood, sweat and second place
 
Nos Conantur Ad Esse Secundum Melius - We strive to be second best
 
Sed Semper Ad Secundum - Always aim to be second
 
Pronuba Semper Nunquam Sponsae - Always the bridesmaid, never the bride
 
Iterum Secundo - Second again
 
Secundus Secundus Secundus - Second, Second, Second
 
Illic Semper Anno Altero - There's always next year
