Why are RTE are still calling this programme The Premiership?

Don't they know that the league changed it's name to The Premier League
 
For the same reason that BBC call their program "Match of the Day" when they now show highlights of all the matches....it's just a name!

- Totally agree and John Giles keeps calling the Premier League the Premiership.

I'm sure RTE would not like us to call RTE2 Network2 or N2- No I dont think so!

am I right in thinking it was called the Premier League before? In the season after the old first division and before the advent of the Premiership?

In the same piece

 
Shouldn't they just call it the "RTE delayed transmission of the Sky League highlights that are carefully packaged to avoid ruining the image of the greatest league in the world.....probably"

Sorry, just a thought.
