The BBC trailed our televised cup tie v West Ham in 2014/15 by describing us as: "the Sleeping Giant of the West," it's not like we describe ourselves as such. Not our fault if the BBC have never interrupted people waiting to watch Eastenders or The Repair Shop by referring to Luton as the "Sleeping Giant of that bit of the country somewhere between the Midlands and London, not far from the M1."
We're not giant, we're middle fer diddle (but not top of the league, sadly). The "Sleeping" bit is accurate, mind.
