'Dinamo Dorigo' are members of the league whose name I think is a nod to the former Leeds United, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Torino, Derby County and Stoke City player Tony Dorigo who also played for England International team 15 times despite being born in Australia to an Italian father and Australian mother.
