Unbelievable Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Fair enough. Just winds me up the usual suspects downplaying the PL all the time. There's a reason none you watch the Bundesliga as often. Funny coming from you, seeing as you have no qualms about ridiculing other countries' leagues at every possibility. In recent years the Bundesliga has grown massively in stature and international appeal. Certainly I know people over here who follow it much more closely than the Premier League these days. It's quite obviously becoming a stronger competition every year too, as evidenced by German clubs' results in Europe and the strength of their national team largely made up of players earning their corn domestically. I love Newcastle United and the Premier League, but then I am biased, not least because of my dislike of everything German. Objectively their football has come on leaps and bounds in the last decade. The fact that they've been able to develop so much whilst respecting their fans' interest is very creditable and certainly deviates from what we've seen in England unfortunately.

Guest firetotheworks Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I have to admit that I'm generally losing interest in this league nowadays. Coincides with us being shit like, but the World Cup was brilliant, so it's not that I've lost any interest in football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Colossus Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Couple of friends of mine run a music shop. They had Google in today to take photos of the inside, so decided to hide 25 pictures of Shola Ameobi around the shop. Whoever finds the most before Christmas wins a prize.
