Just read a small article regarding Celtic being stopped from using the term "Invincibles"
"In a legal twist, the Hoops may no longer be able to use the 'Invincibles' tagline after Arsenal legend Jens Lehmann secured the branding rights. The Gunners famously stormed to an unbeaten Premier League title triumph in 2004 in what is regarded as one of the greatest achievements in English football - earning the name 'Invincibles'.
{Ed007's Note - I read that earlier, one of the most bizarre things I've read in a while considering there was a film called The Invincibles about 10 years before Arsenal won the league.
I really don't think it would stand up in court if Lehmann tried anything.}

I agree Ed and that's why I shared.
Seemed a bit silly and I read a wee wiki article where the same term was used for Preston North End.
"In English football, "The Invincibles" is a nickname used to refer to the Preston North End team of the 1888–89 season"
{Ed001's Note - it is a charity thing, to use it for charity events and good causes involving that Arsenal team. I agree with you both though, it is a silly thing to even need.}

Also Celtic were real Invincibles that season, unbeaten in all domestic competitions not just the league ?.
{Ed033's Note - Celtic FC can use the 'Invincibhles' tagline. :)
