Setanta Sports Cup tournament to be revamped for 2011 | |
I have stated in a previous post that I would like to see the League of Ireland and the Premiership conbine. This would expand the league and hopefully create a more marketable league. Most people tune into the English Premiership and their favorite teams are not in Ireland. The League of Ireland and the Premiership have to do things to make their league more marketable. The main attention grabber would be if a club could advance deep into the Champions League or deep into the Europa League. Going deep into these prestigious international tournaments brings a lot of attention. Attention to the players, to the club and ultimatly to the League. The League of Ireland has had a number of different teams win at each of these competitions. Advancing effects the Leagues co-efficient that is a baromitor as to how you league ranks against the 53 other European Leagues. The competition between the two Irish Leagues is a good idea. However attendance is quite low for this competition. This video shows an empty Linfield Stadium. The crowd in from the traveling Dundalk fans. The stadium however is the biggest and best n Belfast. | |
