1700
03:24
Liverpool play at Anfield and their nickname is The Reds because their club colour is red.
42
204890
9409
03:34
We've got two Manchester teams now.
43
214299
2591
03:36
The first one is Manchester City or we commonly say Man City.
44
216890
6340
03:43
And in fact their nickname is just City.
45
223230
3720
03:46
Now there are lots of English teams called City but you know this one is probably the
46
226950
6210
03:53
biggest one at the moment so they are know as City.
47
233160
3719
03:56
So Man City or City and they play at the Etihad stadium.

236879
7591
04:04
The second Manchester team is Manchester United.
49
244470
5239

Possibly the biggest team in the world.
50
249709
2191
04:11
Again we call them Man United or simply United.
51
251900
5610
04:17
Again there are lots of English teams with United as part of their name but this is the
52
257510
5470
04:22
biggest one in the country so Man United or United.
53
262980
5180
04:28
They are also known as The Red Devils and that's because of having a devil in their
54
268160
6780
04:34
badge.
55
274940
1000
04:35
They play at Old Trafford.
56
275940
4310
04:40
The third promoted team, Newcastle United.
57
280250
6110
04:46
Now they are called the Toon Army.
58
286360
2620
04:48
They are known as the Toon Army because in the local pronunciation of town is toon.
59
288980
6630
04:55
So in Newcastle the local people are called Geordies and their pronunciation of town is
60
295610
7270
05:02
toon.
61
302880
1000
05:03
So they are the Toon Army, it comes from local pronunciation.
62
303880
4590
05:08
And they play at St James' Park.
63
308470
7330
05:15
Southampton and they are known as The Saints and they play at St Mary's.
64
315800
8860
05:24
Stoke City.
65
324660
3280
05:27
They are known as The Potters and that's because the local industry was pottery and they play
66
327940
6440
05:34
at the Bet 365 stadium.
67
334380
2660
05:37
This is a team from Wales, Swansea City.
68
337040
8940
05:45
They are known as The Swans and they play at the Liberty stadium.
69
345980

05:55
They are another team from North London and they play usually at White Hart Lane but this
71
355140
9840
06:04
season they are building a new stadium so for this season only they are playing at Wembley
72
364980
5200
06:10
stadium which is the national stadium for the England football team and where there
73
370180
5000
06:15
are all the FA cup finals, the League Cup finals etc.
74
375180
4350
06:19
Now Tottenham Hotspur have a nickname and that's Spurs.
75
379530
4050
06:23
And they got the name Hotspur from an old Shakespearean character called Harry Hotspur
76
383580
5390
06:28
and I guess Spurs is a shortened version of Hotspur, it's an easier way to say it.
77
388970
6140
06:35
And they are known as Spurs so you'll often hear people saying 'Spurs are playing Manchester
78
395110
4890
06:40
United tomorrow' so Spurs.
79
400000
3000
06:43

403000

425500
3570
07:09

6700
07:15
They play at the London stadium which is the old Olympic stadium and their nickname is
85
435770
7010
07:22
The Hammers and that's because they were founded by shipbuilders who used hammers to build
86
442780
7780
07:30
the ships.
87
450560
