non-scoring strikers 113 Posted September 12, 2020 Was rebranded to the Premier League in 2001. 19 years ago. No wonder nodge fans have a reputation for being a bit slow on the uptake. Unless of course most of you on this fine forum have been referring to the Scottish Premiership. Or Premiership Rugby. Have a lovely weekend! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777 Posted September 12, 2020 I thought it was later than that; around 2007? But as a pedant, it bugs me a little bit too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1902 1,167 Posted September 12, 2020 I'm sorry for not following the corporate rebranding. It is of course, the most important thing in the world that we follow the diktats of PR firms at all times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,632 Posted September 12, 2020 It is indeed the Premier League, but a lot of people, not just our fans, still call it the Premiership (which the Rugby and SPL are called). As to following some ‘corporate’ thing, the ‘Premier League’ makes more sense as a name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even denying that, just that policing how people refer to a league on a messageboard is ridiculous and seems to me to be a strange case of obsessing over whatever random decision was made on the whiteboard of an advertising firm.

The Real Buh 3,423 Posted September 12, 2020 I hate the fact it’s often referred to as the “EPL” and “EFL” just so stupid Americans can understand what’s going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
