Ýmir, "football club"[edit]

While it is true that the club acts as a reserve side to HK, HK has in fact just "borrowed" the name from a local sailing club (this is standard practice (although not nearly all reserve sides are like that, some are just local football clubs), to approach non-footballing clubs about the use of their name, example: Skautafélag Reykjavíkur (SR), a local skating club, is the reserve side for Knattspyrnufélagið Þróttur). The reserve side Ýmir is thus the same club as the sailing club Ýmir. The club has its own page on the Icelandic wiki, under "Siglingafélagið Ýmir", the club's full name. I have no idea how to incorporate this intelligently into the article, nor do I have any sources to link to (it's hidden somewhere in the depths of the website fotbolti.net though). finval (talk) 22:00, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
