The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
What I really mean is that we won't be able to stop players leaving for bigger clubs in (most likely) Britain. However, the best players also leave Holland, Portugal, Denmark, Croatia and so on, but their players all begin their careers in their own countries (unless Liverpool or Arsenal kidnap them first) Does that not entice people to go to games, knowing they could well be looking at future internationals?
