very true, but its their number one sport, I know I'm stating the obvious but football is behind the GAA in terms of popularity, interest etc, its an amazing achievment when we quaify for anything, it shouldn't be expected.Slovenia has a smaller population I think.
the fact that we have very few players going to england is incredibly worrying. i dont know if we will make future world cups

I would agree with you up to a point. Maybe we are better off sending players to England, Scotland or further afield who have already made the grade at home first in the EL, and possibly in European club competitions with their Irish clubs, for moderate to large transfer fees as they stand a better chance of making the grade overseas.
After all the two best players for Ireland in the last 15 years or so
Paul McGrath and Roy Keane both cut their teeth in our (according to barstoolers) brutal league.
I think if we had young player who were playing in the UEFA Cup or Champions League group stages and were aquitting themselves quite well they would sell well in England. We need to take the league and underage development to the next level.
