    Note to self, make sure I am not a subscriber to nPower, as they clearly just want to waste money.

    The logo is appealing on the totty, not sure about rest of it, but who cares, as Pompey sort of supporter I think someone like Barclay's, HSBC or HMRC would be more fitting

    The Pubs Galore Premiership has a nice ring to it.

    We might get enough to sponsor the Spartan South Midlands Premiership for one weekend providing all the games are called off.

    Given financial strains on football clubs this season..

    Quite appropriate sponsor name for FL as next season is likely to see the lights go out on a few of its FL members..

    At least they’re not altering the names of the divisions beyond the sponsor’s prefix this time. So we are spared the pathetic attempts to convince us that “League One” and, before that, “League Division Two” were somehow progressively superior to the 3rd division as was. Idiots.

    And while I’m on the subject, why can’t they understand that “League One” and “League Two” are not leagues at all, they are separate divisions of the football league. Every other country seems to be able to cope with this simple concept.

    It's still Divisions 1, 2, 3 & 4 to me. Old habits die hard.
