    I get so annoyed when people refer to the league as just “Barclays”. Nobody calls La Liga the “Santander” or Ligue 1 as the “UberEats”. It’s such a small thing but it does my head in 😂

        That’s the thing! It is just Premier League!! And people still just call it Barclays. I just read something on F365 about Wenger and the writer referred to “the first 15 years of Barclays”…it wasn’t even sponsored by Barclays at all until 2001.

        As I said, such a minor thing but…grrrrr

          To be honest with you, a lot and I mean a lot of people outside of the UK, that are not in finance, have no idea Barclays is a bank.

          It’s a proper fancy sounding English word, that goes well with premier.

      I’ve actually seen quite a few people refer to Ligue 1 as UberEats lol
