But they didn't claim the *club* had the history, which would still be silly but is at least arguable. They claimed the *brand* had the history. It doesn't.
"The Melbourne United Basketball Club is one of Australia's premier sporting brands with a rich history dating back to the 1930's."
Except that it isn't.
They should be trying very hard. Eventually dust will settle and over a number of years new fans will not even remember the Tigers. That's how it goes, father time sits still for no one. I hope it works out for hoops in Victoria and they have not just stuffed up the chance for a second team here!
I say this because if they are the sole team we have, we are stuffed!
