I'M FOOTBALL
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “I’M FOOTBALL” is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by Football Album Limited, with the cancellation entered on March 27 2026 because the registrant failed to file an acceptable Section 71 declaration; no later maintenance events are listed. The registration covered Class 009 software for instant messaging, file sharing and VOIP communications, Class 038 telecommunications and electronic messaging services, and Class 042 temporary‑use online software for messaging, video conferencing and e‑commerce functions, so a similar name used in those digital‑communication or software contexts would present the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “I’M FOOTBALL,” especially outside the listed tech‑service areas. The prosecution history shows an initial refusal, an amendment, and eventual registration, but the later Section 71 lapse led to cancellation rather than a Supplemental Register filing. The supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation, or court actions, so no enforcement signal appears. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable name in the same software‑or‑communication services.
