It has never been the Premiership though. FA Carling/Barcaycard/Barclays Premiership, but never the Premiership. As I said, that is Mrs Mays job at the moment.

you were wrong, you are still wrong, and no doubt you will continue to be wrong, wrong,wrong. Let your ego die, embrace humility, admire the greatness of others before you shrivel into a slow, bitter death. It WAS called the premiership, albeit with a sponsor's suffix, give it up man, your posturing superior humbug has been exposed.

I’m afraid you are wrong, my friend. This from the Premier League’s own website - history section:

“From the 1993/94 season, England’s top flight was known as the FA Carling Premiership, before the sponsorship changed in 2001 to Barclaycard until 2004.

The title of the competition then changed to the FA Barclays Premiership, with this being amended to Barclays Premier League ahead of the 2007/08 campaign.”

It's the benders who call it the EPL who are the real problem.

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

You're right, Tim. They're wrong.

Maybe it is senseless to dismiss the idea that succes in lower leagues might be a lot harder to achieve then in the PL with it's near unlimited tv money. While I agree it is no certainty, I would love to see what the so called top managers could do in the lower leagues. Do you think Guardiola could have kept Bury up, or Conte could have done a better job at Barnet then Martin Allen did?

What is different is recruitment. But since we seem to have no agreement whatsoever between the people recruiting and the manager (considering last jan window) that may not be up to the manager, or head coach, after all.

Anyone who thinks managing a little club in the lower Scottish leagues is grounding for managing a Premiership team has lost their senses.

That annoys me too. I'm just waiting for the next incarnation. The English Premiership!

Mrs May’s job is Prime Minister.

Indeed. I think I mentioned that the Premiership was the Prime Ministers job. Maybe you missed that bit?

Don't wish to get involved with something so petty, but.... It definitely used to be called the FA Carling Premiership.
