    @Mr Cleansheets @AussieGreek @George Theodorou

    Let’s avoid taking the Ange thread on a tangent eh? :ange2:

    Discussions have been largely about the standard of A-League football.

    For what it’s worth I don’t think the MacLaren comparison holds much weight. He’s banging them in in Australia and was only decent in Scotland.. but Shane Duffy failing in the SPL doesn’t mean the SPL is on a par with the Premier League.

    @Mr Cleansheets can we revisit the Austraila National Team having a higher co-efficient than Scotland means the A Leagues stronger? Cos that was interesting.


    It would mean currently Belgium is the strongest league in the world, fair play to Jack Hendry for thriving at that peak level.

    It would also mean the Welsh league is better than the A-League and the SPL and also the J-League seeing as we're randomly throwing Japan about

    * me, I’d be banging them in more than a free prossie in Kings Cross (look it up)
    In all reality though, think of J Macs support when he played in Scotland. Not saying he’s awesome, but he was in a * team.
    ……. Ok where’s my Scotch……..

    I heard the reason Aussie soccer is so * is because the water swirls in the wrong direction when they flush their toilet.

    I’m a massive fan of The Gold Coast Flamin Shiela’s FC. We should sign their best defender, Big Bruce Reillycostopopulos.
