OK Dev - I'm going to bite.
BCPDLK? I suspect Basic and knowledge are the bookends, and the word league may be in there too but what the blazes are the middle initials?
It is indeed Athletic. They used to have the longest name in professional football when they were called Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic (not United as I remembered) until they changed their name to AFC. This happened in 1972 which makes me feel very old.
Inverness hadn’t merged by then and weren’t in the professional leagues and had less letters anyway than the old Bournemouth name.

Inverness was not the correct answer though to be fair.
The correct answer to the question asked is
Clwb Pêl Droed Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Football Club
BCPDLK to be honest.
