Victoria Beckham Challenges Soccer Club ‘Posh’

The Daily Star reports former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham is opposing a Second Division soccer club’s attempt to register its 68-year-old ‘Posh’ nickname as a trademark. Peterborough United bosses were “absolutely stunned” by the move to challenge its attempt to trademark its nicknames, “Posh” and “The Posh”. “The name Posh is inexorably associated with Victoria Beckham in the public’s mind,” said Beckham’s publicity company. “The concern from her team is that they (the public) would think she had in some way endorsed products she had no knowledge of.”
