Thread Name: BS: Foreign-Farce Football
Subject: RE: BS: Foreign-Farce Football
I disagree SSC - if someone prefers English club-football the way it was not that long ago, they are NOT automatically "xenophobic"; and I think it's wrong that those who take such threads off-thread, and repeatedly make personal attacks, should NOT keep succeeding in having them closed (I, for one, would have continued adding any news to the Green/Godly Gardening thread - if it had not been closed).
To IB - I agree but add/reaffirm that ALL our club-football was largely like that before deregulation, which I think occurred just over a decade ago. I think it was only 2 foreign players on the field then, and I think FIFA are discussing making it only 5 (perhaps someone can confirm this).
