I know it is. But you appeared to be dismissing my point as it was a league below the top one and my point was that is not a good enough point. If the league is equal to or worse than ours then obviously the First Division is worse. But if the league is better than ours then the First Division may be better than, equal to ours. Not to say this is the case as I am not very familiar with the Challenge League, but if the Super League is better than the Premier Division then it's hardly conceivable that the Challenge League is on a different planet to the eL.
I am not following the logic of the original poster but none the less it is interesting to see Liechtenstein are currently beating Luxemburg 3-0 away as I type. It seems they are advancing as a footballing nation domestically and internationally.
Luxembourg 0-4 Liechenstein or Luxembourg 0-3 Vaduz if u prefer. Starting to think that "have you ever played vaduz" chant wasnt meant to be sarcasm!
This is getting so sad. They beat Luxembourg for gods sake.
When was the last time Luxembourg won a game? They met the Faroes recently and shipped four goals to them as well.
err no there not. The only club success they had was against mighty LongfordIt seems they are advancing as a footballing nation domestically and internationally.

Errr, yes they are. When the hell do Liechtenstein ever win a game either!? Not only that but comprehensively away. In fact they have claimed 4 points for their last 6. When could they ever say that? And doesn't the fact that Vaduz have risen rapidly up the Swiss league to the verge of the top division as well as having finally progressed a round in Europe not represent advancement? No one is giving Longford a pat on the back for losing but the criticism they are getting considering the fact they are not even one of our most major clubs (no offense boys) I feel they deserve some defending. I hope they win the cup so they can get a chance to exorcise this ghost because as far as I'm concerned an anomoly led to them drawing a rather tough unseeded team.This is getting so sad. They beat Luxembourg for gods sake.

If two crap teams meet each one of them is bound to win.
But given the fact the steamrollered them away and held Portugal to a draw, do you not call that progress? Have they ever even accumulated 4 points in a championship before?
Sure but two good enough to qualify for proper European Competition. Can you give your stat-o-meter a rest and give us a break as this is just going around in circles now, we know the arguements...
1) They're a rising team. Full time, playing budget that beats any in the league. One game away from top flight swiss football.
2) Sure they've always done crap in Europe. Look at their history, look at the country they're from.
btw Eoin, you excluded the fact that before the rise of Liechtenstein in world football (
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
Jesus christ on a moped. What utter tripe. Fact is you got beat by a team from Liechtenstein. I dont care if they then went on and beat Brazil!
The only Longford fan with any semblance of common sense here is techs. And before you think this is an anti longford post it isnt. If we had lost to vaduz in europe I would be the first one to say we embarrassed the league. Farcical thread.

personally any team who sold there ground, are homeless and can't afford to pay their players are an embaressment also, perhaps a bigger one.
we are the club most wanna be these days, ya don't here them saying, oh rovers are the club we want to aspire to be
sorry if that sounds harsh, but if you weren't at either game you have no right to comment on a game u didn't even see.

I have every right to comment on those games. Guarantee if the shoe was on the other footpersonally any team who sold there ground, are homeless and can't afford to pay their players are an embaressment also, perhaps a bigger one.
The "team" didnt sell our beloved ground. Like most longford fans you seem to have a short memory. Lucifer kilcoyne did. Our club is an embarrassment at the moment. The dogs on the street know that. But considering we didnt lose to vaduz on footballing terms longford did embarrass the league. Re read my last line on my last thread.

Only for what you did with your ground. With all due respect your ground is out in the middle of nowhere and I doubt very much you had planning permission problems, school next door moaning, residents protesting etc.
sorry if that sounds harsh, but if you weren't at either game you have no right to comment on a game u didn't even see.
Maybe if you could get around your anti Rovers stance and try to accept that ALL league clubs were let down by your "performances" in Europe.
Gee max hope you dont have any immigration problems getting into NY. There are enough warped minds there

no the point is that how can you comment on a game you haven't seen ??
you have every right agreed , but your view are uninformed and pointless if you haven't seen the game in question.
