Carndablues Clutched July 13, 2009 Share July 13, 2009 About $50 a month including GST for the privilege of watching about 20 quality games, most of which are Champs League, cos let's face it who watches the UEFA Cup (or whatever rebranding those marketing genii at UEFA have called it) or Serie A (the world's second most boring league, second only to our own S-League!) ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carndablues Clutched July 13, 2009 Author Share July 13, 2009 do you know that serie A score more goals than premier league last season? Do you know that on average a Serie A game lasts 5 minutes longer than a EPL game because of the number of diving players and referee interruptions? If you judge the quality of a game by the amount of goals scored, then I would suggest you watch some other sport, like basketball! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's see how many english players can play overseas. In the past have lah, current generation, cannot think of any. La liga worse hor, diving players not sure. But the number of times, the ref whistle is comparable to Serie A. Because the refs are bought up to protect the players. Let's see why people like to watch BPL. 1. Its fast paced 2. Its more physical 3. More well-known names in general 4. Its ENGLISH (most people get bored of watching serie A or la liga because they dont understand what the commentor is saiding.)

Italian football can be interesting but the commentator are not as good as those in BPL thus, made the matches boring. The time of the big games are also in the wee hour where if I can sleep, I'll watch Serie A ... Guarantee chopped can sleep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carndablues Clutched July 13, 2009 Author Share July 13, 2009 But let's see how many english players can play overseas. In the past have lah, current generation, cannot think of any. Irrelevant, I watch EPL not for the ENGLISH players, I watch it cos of the quality of the players (let's face it how many good English players are there in the top four teams?) La liga worse hor, diving players not sure. But the number of times, the ref whistle is comparable to Serie A. Because the refs are bought up to protect the players. Who's talking about La Liga, it's comparable to the Serie A, as you have mentioned, I hate watching Real against the smaller teams, the amount of time they waste harassing the ref is ridiculous, and the fact that they only start games in the evening cos the Spanish cannot live without their siesta in the arvo just goes to show that they don't really care about international audiences, I hope Real goes the way of Leeds, they're junk. Let's see why people like to watch BPL. 1. Its fast paced 2. Its more physical 3. More well-known names in general 4. Its ENGLISH (most people get bored of watching serie A or la liga because they dont understand what the commentor is saiding.) Pretty much correct, except for the 2nd point, the refs let the game go on, and they do not tolerate harassment (except at Old Trashford or Junkfield) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
