    German league is ace - games are often quite exciting, league is shared about a bit and the atmosphere seems to be brilliant.

    Remind me with small brain and small team, why they were relegated?

    Because we got less points than the other 23 teams in the Championship aka bottom.

    German league is good. I know the Scottish and Irish leagues are piss poor but the English trumpet the EPL as the best thing on earth, like their football side, they are both average at best.

    The standard obviously isn't as high but its a lot more competitive than the EPL.

    I just generally like the way the germans run football overall, competitive league, well run clubs, busy games and cheap tickets the list is endless it all seems to be positives.

    Don't mention international football! It's dead, Blatter has ruined international football! I love the German league, Serie A use to be my favourite in the 90s when it was shown on channel 4.

    Nobody English that I know trumpets the England team as the best on earth. The PL maybe, but it does help when your team wins it half the time :)

    Roy - have you got the score correct ?
    Reading the article - it states that the Premier League logo and anthem are subject to copyright - so buying foreign decoders are all well and good - but if you need clearance from the Premier League to transmit games it will be useless if the PL say " no " ( assuming that the 44000 pubs would not be able to match the money offered to the PL by Sky. )

    100% agree. Loads of people say "I want to go to Barcelona, AC Milan etc." - I'd rather go and watch Bayern munich.

    Your right as always <laugh>

    They will just copyright the whole game by flooding it with logos.

    Good. They have had a monopoly for too long. Maybe now someone else can get a look in.

    Like ITV you mean who only ever used to show the so called big 4? At least Sky show every team live a few times during the season and not always just as cannon fodder either.

    Sky and the Premier League just want to copyright everything, pricing everyone that cannot afford it out of the game.
