Maybe it was called the Premiership the last time they were in it, Marra. Much like 'Newcastle Airport', they dinnit recognise the 'Premier Leygue'.

NG32 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I think it may have been called the Barclays Premiership at one point, when sponsored by Barclays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Not strictly Mackems but the similarities between them and Everton fans is hilarious. Listening to an Everton Twitter Space (pathetic a kna) and they’ve just been ranting about how a Liverpool fan from outside of the city is day tripper, but an Everton fan from America is an Evertonian. Then talking about the merchandise Liverpool fans where, apparently Everton fans wear “the classier stuff”. Desperate stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FA-backed top flight breakaway initially called itself the ‘Premiership’ due to disputes as to whether use of ‘League’ was the intellectual property of the Football League (and given the PL breakaway was from a now pissed-off Football League, court cases were not unlikely). It took a few years to resolve that it wasn’t an infringement, and changed to the Premier League from then on. Ugly stuff, all based around a money-grab by the top division clubs - plenty of whom are now rattling round the lower leagues (non-league in Oldham’s case) and complaining about the Premier League’s greed.

pinkeye Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I never understood the requirement to have little relationships with other clubs fans. There are several clubs that I quite like, several I absolutely hate as well but, I never feel the need to buddy up with the ones I like - especially to re-enforce my feelings towards a third club. Sun'lun fans seem to find great delight in making up stories about how all the clubs in the UK have a great love and respect for them while simultaneously hating Newcastle.... There will have been some sieth on Wearyside last night if they were watching The Chase on ITV, a question about a bridge in Sunderland and which River it crossed, the Chaser said it was the Tyne and the contestants said Tees... Apparently the Wear did not even occur to them... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
