TIME FOR A NAME CHANGE

Thu Jul 18, 2013 11:07 am

Now we have two Welsh teams in the premier maybe its time for a name change.
Cricket has the English and welsh cricket board so why not the English and Welsh Premier League.

It's not the welsh premier league it's the English premier league we just play init. Technically we are a English club anyway. That's why the jack bastards are in Europe representing England. So please stop talking so wet. Thank you

If we play in Europe, an English flag will be next to us. We represent England now.

P.S It's not called the English Premier League.

Its BPL. It has never been called the "English Premier League" So I don't know why you are using the EPL thing.

I've noticed EPL is being used more and more recently, was never called English!

Might have something to do with social media sites, people are always abbreviating on them.

He does have a point, but the other posters are correct. It is the EPL in the sense that even though there are welsh teams, it's the premier league of England. But it isn't named as such, it is named the BPL, so no need for a name change.

English fans tend to call it the EPL because, well, it is mainly based in England, and it was until Swansea then us went and fucked it up.

The people who call it EPL are just English, but it's an unofficial name. PL or BPL are the official terms. There's no need for a name change.

EPL is what all the yanks refer to it as - its not the official name it's just a way of directing foreign audiences to the right "premier league" as there are many throughout the world.

And what happens if Swansea and Cardiff got relegated? :roll:

We're part of the English football system, end of. The official terms are 'Premier League' and 'Barclays Premier League', the 'English Premier League' is just a term some fans call it as the competition is part of the English system.

We are an English, welsh based club. That is the sacrifice we made when we decided not to join the welsh league. There is already a welsh league, why should the English league change it's name because we don't want to play in our own league?

If your such the big welshman why don't you support a WPL side.
