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
