Football did exist before 1992,and not only that English sides dominated European competition for 25 years without the need of ownership from oil rich foreign oligarchs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before that day when we were Windassed whenever Argyle played Hull they always made a big deal of the game being between the two biggest English cities never to have had a top flight side.

Thank you! But isn’t the Premier League the top ‘division’ in England rather than a ‘football league’ ?? - interesting, yet pretty useless debate!

The pitch is doing well and on course to be ready for their opening friendly against Swansea on the 12th July.

Denbury Red Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Yep. I realise that go on sale at 10:00. Normally the website or article would state how to purchase - online, by phone etc. Just seen nothing anywhere! Hopefully it’ll become clear!

That would be silly as it's never been called the first divisionship.

When posting my lighthearted response, I obviously didn’t factor in the likely reaction from the humourless ones who truly believed I thought @harrysshould have referred to a past division as ‘the first divisionship’ - when I was making the point that the ‘premiership’ in England doesn’t exist... didn’t think anyone would take it so seriously ... so, again, apologies that I made you take to the keyboard to tell me ‘it would be silly’ ... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
