You can't spell failure without FAI
Why is it moronic? The EL Is not at the same level as the English Championship. The market has proven that. It's myopic to think otherwise.
Also, for every Kevin Doyle there is a Dominic Foley, Vinny Arkins, Glen Crowe etc. etc. who simply could not cut it in the Championship.
There is no such thing as a miracle cure, a free lunch or a humble opinion.
Dominic Foley could barely cut it here. There are plenty of players who develop late. I see no reason to think that Crowe couldn't have made it in the Championship when he was at his best three or four years ago.

Let's keep the thread on topic, I didn't mean to hijack the thread when I posted about Jason Byrne. Sorry to everyone who has to sift through these other posts to get at what they came here for.
If that is the case then why didn't he? A footballer has a finite period of time in which to make their money. The simply fact is, the Championship pays a lot more than the EL. Players who can make it there will based on simple economic necessity. Most EL players would not make it in the Championship. Crowe tried on several occassions and he didn't make it.

when you posted about Jason Byrne?? what you posted was trolling. and you know it. now your acting like were the ones bringing down the tone by going off topic when it was you that dissed the EL in the first place well knowing it would go off topic
A club would have to sign him first.
Don't think anyone's disputed that. What people are objecting to is the statement that the league is much worse than it.Most EL players would not make it in the Championship.
At Wolves once - what am I missing here?Crowe tried on several occassions and he didn't make it.

'dissed'
I love it - never in all my days did I think anyone would or could use the word 'dissed' in serious dialogue. Magnificent. The oodles of nonsense posted in this particular thread have spawned genius, it was all worth it.

Getting back to the match...
I think the poor performance was a ploy to help Chile rise in the world rankings and make Mark González look good so that he gets a work permit.
Greece 1 - 0 Germany

Indeed. Probably why Finnan wasn't playing too!

Sheesh - he didnt say it was at the same level he said it was FAR SUPERIOR which IS moronic.
And what market has proven that?
There's a rather big difference between the "thought police" and people who are irritated by people too lazy to start a sentance with a capital letter, use an apostrophie when appropriate or distinguish between "their", "there" and "they're".

Far superior, probably not. Better, without a doubt.
And what market has proven that?
The market meaning that, generally, a soccer player will want to maximize his income. The best leagues attract good players by paying higher wages. A player, looking to maximize income, will gravitate towards the best leagues with the highest wages. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that a league that pays significantly higher wages attracts better players.

Some clubs are as good, some are not but at least you agree its not far superior.
Income is just one factor when comparing one league to another. THe CCC is marketed properly in its own country and is the 7th highest attended league in Europe - to say that the 3/4 eL teams could easily hold thier own says a lot for how far the game has progressed here in the last 4/5 years.
The game has done well but it could do so much better. I see no reason why the EL could not become the equal of the SPL. If we combined with IFA we could create a single, domestic league. Perhaps pare it down to 12 teams or so and really put time and money into it.
At the moment, our national stadium play on a pitch that would SHAME most American High-School teams.
I do not agree that 3/4 EL teams would survive in the CCC.
