    I used to watch the J-League highlights show every week a couple of years ago, actually used to enjoy it a lot, might start watching it again sometime...

    Used to also be a big fan of the Eurogoals programme, Haven't seen that on telly in ages though, do they even show it anymore? :pac:

    Have you any interest in a weird foreign league?

    Many people in this country see the League of Ireland as a strange foreign league, so yes.

    Welsh League, I've been to a few games.

    Also been to see Stenhousemuir in the lower Scottish league.

    I nearly went to a Serie C match while on my honeymoon, but decided it would be a bad choice :D

    Surprised it took that long!

    Used to keep an eye myself on the Finnish League once upon a time. Read something about a club called FC Jazz and followed their fortunes for a while. Sad I know, but I haven't done it in ages. I swear!!

    Your Stenhousemuir comment reminded me, I nearly went to a Dunfermline fame when I was on a family holiday :D :pac: tbh I've kept an eye on how they've been doing since then as well! Was gutted when they lost in the playoff final last year :pac:

    Oh yeah, I was a regular at Sydney FC in the first season of the A-League, really good atmosphere in "The Cove" there. Dwight Yorke strolling around the pitch, not giving a crap and still being the best player there.

    I've be watching a lot of the MLS the last while, there are some cracking games.

    Not even remotely strange and slightly OT but I remember being mesmerised when TG4 had a Liga highlights pack called Ole Ole!

    I still follow the misfortunes of FC Lausanne-Sports in the Swiss league from when I lived there almost fifteen years ago.

    I wonder did you actually go to see any Finnish clubs play when they came over here in European competition. Or were you too busy?
