Now that The Football League has gone to all the trouble of rebranding themselves, do you think we'd be allowed to use their (rather nice) new logo as an image on this page? It's available at [1]. BBC News had it on their site, but I'm not sure if they have some sort of special permission. Surely their logo can be featured here too under fair use?
I seem to recall this being discussed before, but I'd like to suggest that this is moved to Football League, without the definite article. sjorford :// 10:18, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
The Football League → Football League - same reasons as above. sjorford #£@%&$?! 15:36, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. Dragons flight 07:23, September 10, 2005 (UTC)
Alright, it's finally got to me, so I've put this (and The Football Association) on WP:RM. Main reasons:
I think this article has some discrepancies regarding the term 'Football League'. Itr seems the author(s) have assumed that prior to the Premier League being formed the teams involved we're part of the football league. This isn't not true. The Premier League was mearly a re-badging of the Division 1 (mainly for marketing purposes), 'the football league' did not exist prior the premier league. Parts of the article refering to this have to be changed. Any objections? Jamie 12:02, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
Are we sure the discussion of escalating transfer records in the Premiership (in the History section) wouldn't be better place in the Premier League article? It may already be there for all I know, but I really don't think it belongs here, as well. Binabik80 04:31, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
I think we only need to say he was scottish once, not twice. He lived most of his life near Birmingham and it was there that he started the league. I think Wikipedia is turning into a bit of a soundpiece for nationalists of all kind (I am not anti Scottish: I am anti Wikipedia turning into such a soap box, regardless of the country). How about "originally from Perthshire, Scotland".
Is "Scottish" a nationality, any more than "Bavarian" is? Grassynoel ( talk) 17:48, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
The definitions were wrong, so I changed them. They were stated as:
goal difference (the difference between goals scored and goals allowed) rather than goal average (goals scored divided by goals allowed).
Correctly, they should be (and now are):
goal difference (the difference between goals scored and goals conceded) rather than goal average (goals scored divided by the number of games so far played). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.96.161.52 ( talk) 21:35, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
I have started a media rights section. It needs more information, especially on situation between the start of the league and the ITV Digital contract. Jamie Mercer 12:34, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Did you all know that live Football League matches continued on ITV after the Premier League moved over to Sky from the 1992–93 season. The ITV franchised regions would have their own live sports programme showing a live match from their region. The games would normally kick-off Sundays at 3pm. Onshore ( talk) 12:20, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was no consensus. Incidentally, there seems to have been a three-way cut-and-paste move from English Football League via Football League to The Football League back in 30 March 2004; I'm going to try to merge the histories so that the revisions will at least all be in the same place. — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 17:14, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
The Football League → Football League — Though the definite article is included in the organisation's logo, it is not commonly used in regular speech. —- PeeJay 19:25, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia's naming conventions.I've done a history merge to fix a pair of cut-and-paste moves (from English Football League via Football League to The Football League) done back in 30 March 2004. All the revisions of this article are now at The Football League, while the history of English Football League now only contains the revisions made after it was turned into a disambiguation page. As a side effect, the five earliest revisions of The Football League, from before the cut-and-paste move, have been deleted: they were all redirects, so this shouldn't be much of a loss. — Ilmari Karonen ( talk) 17:39, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
I've moved the following new section to the talk page until a citation can be provided. I think it would probably be better on the English football champions article if it is staying anyway:

Please note that the current "big four" are Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea (not Everton) Also please note in the main article that, due to changes in the new Europa Cup, during the 2008/2009 season winning the League Cup will no longer gain entry to the Uefa Cup (in future the Europa Cup) AlbanScot ( talk) 17:59, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
