Why is premier league called premier league?

The Premier League used to be called the Football League First Division but in 1992 the teams in the Premier League branched off from this championship. There is really no reason that the Premier League is called the Premier League other than Premier meaning good and needing to incorporate "League" in the name. Note that at the moment the Premier League is called the Barclays Premier League because of sponsorship (Barclays being the bank.)


What happened during the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge?

The NSW Premier Jack Lang was due to cut the ribbon to officially the open the Bridge. However, just as he was about to declare the bridge officially open, the ribbon was cut by the sword of Captain Francis De Groot who charged on his horse, slashing the ribbon. De Groot belonged to the paramilitary group, the New Guard, which was opposed to Lang's leftist policies. A militant monarchist, De Groot believed that only a member of the Royal family should have the honour of opening the Sydney Harbour Bridge. De Groot's organisation resented the fact that the King's representative in Australia, the Governor-General Sir Isaac Isaacs, hadn't been asked to open the bridge. De Groot was arrested, and the ribbon retied, allowing Lang to perform the official opening ceremony.
