    I actually looked it up a couple of months ago - I'm pretty sure that the catalyst for my curiosity was [MENTION=7129]Spectemur Agendo[/MENTION] on here though.

    I always thought this was clear cut but I found out that the true meaning is open to a different interpretation. The Latin phrase appears in a translation of Homers Illiad where it is taking a Greek passage that comes across as "watch how we fair in battle" or "when the time comes to fight, judge us then". Both of these I think are more apt to a sporting club and superior to the Latin translation.
