Maybe I am wrong. I don’t profess to be much of an expert on soccer. Only have a very passing interest in it. Mind you the five that you have mentioned Cameroon, Senegal, Sweden, Nigeria and Ivory Coast have all had representation in a squad at a World Cup from their domestic leagues.

A shocking day
Are you going to one to provide an identity of a competitor at a soccer World Cup other than Eire, who have not had a squad representative at any World Cup from their domestic league? Nobody else has successfully done so as yet. Too busy for the most part in childish name calling and personal insults.

Can you name another nation that had an amateur domestic league?
I’m just interested in getting an answer to the question I posed. None of the soccer types have even attempted to answer it yet.

Eire have an amateur domestic league of semi professional players who sign on the dole in off season.
What is the point in your query and are you pro or anti scummy soccer it’s difficult to tell?
England produce all their own players bar one economic migrant, half the Eire players, a good few Welsh players and a good few northern Oirish.
That’s remarkable.

A population of 50 odd million people, players who’s parents were economic migrants, returning home to play sports. not surprising really is it.
Apparently Eire is a special case when it comes to sustaining a professional soccer league. Too close to England, population too small and competing with other sports like GAA and rugby.
Countries with comparable enough populations to Eire like Croatia and Slovakia, where there are strong competing sporting interests like basketball and ice hockey have no problem in sustaining a professional domestic league. They’ve even managed to get teams into the group stages of the European Cup in recent years.
The Irish ground football fans love nothing more than a stream of excuses, Henry handled the ball, Keane left Saipan, the economy has turned we cant pay for the stadium etc etc
In fact the only thing they like more than complaining is a good drunken sing song

For what? he has spent half the day googling the answer to a question that wasn’t asked.
He’s you all dancing to his tune. It’s gas.
We wouldn’t even be playing soccer if it wasn’t for ye invading hun bastards coming in and forcing it on us.
It’s the third sport in this country, ahead of that other abomination ye forced on us.
Ireland’s best soccer players are abducted at 14 years of age to go away over to your bastard of a country and all but about 1% come back broken and uneducated or sexually abused.
You hail from a fucking cunthole. Be glad your let live here

Rugby lads love a bit of physical contact. Almost as much as they like homoerotic banter and the queen (except O’Gara)
