I think Arsenal get listed as ASL, but Sky usually list more letters (ARSNL)

Does it vary between each channel then? I think ASL is right for Arsenal though so updating the list with that

It probably does, depending on their mood. Happy I'm sure in years gone by I've seen Arsenal as ARS and ANL.

You're mistaken. That comes up when Savage is the appointed pundit.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what 'it' was.
Now, what I'm with isn't it, and what's 'it' seems weird and scary
