First "London" club could soon play in English League


LONDON (Reuters) - Leyton Orient are ready to risk fans' fury with a name-change in a bid to secure an Olympic ground-share with Premier League neighbours West Ham United.

The O's would rebrand themselves 'London Orient' if they move from modest Brisbane Road to the Olympic Stadium with West Ham, says chairman Barry Hearn, and become the first English League outfit to adopt the name of the British capital.
