We have a great chance to win the premiership league next season.

Changing the Premiership to Premier League was genius. I think they should also change the Championship to Champion League.

Oh hang on.

Just imagine all the pedants! "It's Champion League, you fool, I said CHAMPION, no effing 'S'... oh, FFS, some of the idiots on NSC!"

Is getting the name right considered pedantry?

Like, if I kept saying the name of my company wrong would it be pedantic for someone to point that out?

Depends whether it's Nike or Nike (Nikey).

All these people moaning about the 'Premiership' - do you work for the premier league or their sponsors perchance? Your zeal to defend the proper name borders on fanatical

Me, I've decided to deliberately and post-ironically call it the premiership on here just for the shits and giggles :moo:

and tomorrow I shall be singing We're on our Waaaaaaaay, to the Premiership, we're on our waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy and so on, and dare Mr Barber to flame me from the posh seats :doublemoo:

Maybe we should be replacing "Were Loose" at the top of the page with We're in the Premier League not the Fecking Premiership?

I find it pretty funny people arguing over a brand name for our 1st division.

True but because of NSCs obsession with this it is pissing me off when people say Premiership!!

It's seems that it is ok, cool almost, to refer to it as the First Division but not The Premiership. I usually write PL but this is because I'm lazy.

I still refer to the League Cup at the Rumbelows Cup or Milk Cup despite knowing full well it is neither (to be honest, I don't know who sponsors it now but could easily look it up).
