Hahaha. Amen brother.

I often feel like saying exactly the same thing. Glad someone else thinks it. I cringe when I hear it, especially from people like Alan Shearer who should know better!

Thank you for highlighting this on behalf of those of us that didn’t want to sound pedantic and were too scared to act.

The Premiership is the top tier of the Scottish football pyramid, whereas Cardiff City will be plying their trade in the English Premier League.

I’ll be able to sleep better tonight thanks to the OP and for that I salute you. Well done! :bluebird:

It’s been called the Premiership since it started nothing to do with us.

initially was called the premiership here but the premier league for foreign tv broadcasts..
