They won't be in the Championship next year. And your suggestion isn't very funny.
The suggestion wasn't meant to be funny.

Anyway, I don't think anyone's mentioned the new Football League logo. EFL makes it sound like the EDL...


And from next year, it's just the 'Premier League.' They're cancelling the deal with Barclays to have the comp without a naming sponsor – apparently it's inspired by the American leagues.
Massive downgrade.

Chelsea have a great chance at free falling to the Leagues. They just need a bit of luck. Selling the newly devalued, under performing stars, throw in a couple looking for a way out for next season, miss a champions league spot, drop in merchandise (no one buys after a loss) and an FFP fine and they're good to go.

I don't mind this, it'll stop all those nerds who have never been to a football game in their life calling it the "BPL"

It's said either the 'Premier League' or 'EPL', none of this 'BPL' bullshit. The 'BPL' is the Bangladesh Premier League, which is T20 cricket league
Even EPL is terrible and pretty much every football fan in England hates it. 'Prem' does just nicely.

And lol at the Bangladesh Premier League – I didn't even know it existed and I'm sure I'm not alone in that regard

For me, 'Prem' means 'love' in my mother tongue; so there is no way I'm saying that.

I only know about the Bangladesh Premier League because it interests me to see the follow on effect from the Indian Premier League and the other countries and sports that are trying to adopt the structure (without the corruption).

Great logo. The green makes it so cool.

Two of the greatest tragedies in British soccer is the losing of Umbro to the national side, and Mitre no longer even supplying the lower leagues. Bring this back


This is the ball I remember as the default Premier League one.


The ones of the last six years have just seemed a variation on a theme – even since that classic 'three circles' one of about 2008.
