Should we play in the Welsh league? 14:58 - Dec 26 with 3756 views | Brad_Bobbly | Over at the Liverpool forum I am a member at, the Scousers are all saying we should play in the Welsh league and so should the scum. Anyone agree? They reckon Celtic and Gers have to play in their own league so we should too. | | | | |

In reality when Rangers got put down a bunch of divisions they should of applied for English Leagues. | | | |

This "English" league thing is crap. It was the football league. It is a shame that the Scottish league exists as it clouds those narrow minded ones. A lot of the forum members who have been in the forces didn't join the English Army or the English Navy. People who go to the DVLA for 7.5 hours are not employed by the Welsh DVLA. | |

Just curious about the op's position on this. Swansea joined the League in 1921. Welsh Prem formed in 1991. So Swansea joined the professional league available to them at the time. I remember when we first got promoted into the Prem the argument welsh clubs shouldn't be in the Prem was bandied about by a lot of fans of clubs not in the Prem at that time. Just envy I guess as they didn't seem to care about Swansea being in the English League system when they were in it's lower reaches. | |

Spot on. An argument often raised by those who have no idea how the whole bloody league structure started. Many make the argument when their teams joined up AFTER us. They can do one. If the offer was withdrawn then we could sue them for restriction of trade. Along with all the other Welsh sides peppered through the league structure. | |

Could say the same about us with all of our anti English songs. Thing is, none of our players are Welsh. Our manager is English. And we play in an English league. Personally I would love for us to play in a Welsh league. Cymru Am Byth. | | | |

Should we play in the Welsh league? on 23:03 - Dec 26 with 2101 views | jackrabbit | The Premier League is not an English league. It is a world league that is played on English soil. English players and managers are a minority. So it is farcical to comment on a Welsh club full of foreigners (with no Welsh players) playing alongside other clubs full of foreigners in the same league. | | | |

When you talk about anti English songs you are obviously talking about your own anti English songs. Not everyone agrees. | |

An invite into the first season of the league over a hundred years ago seems like a pretty solid justification for being in it. | | | |

There was no English league, there was simply the football league, a,separate organisation to the FA. | |

Should we play in the Welsh league? on 13:45 - Dec 27 with 1727 views | BarrySwan | I'm surprised at the level of ignorance in this thread as to the history of the largest Welsh teams in the English league systems. The reason that the Welsh teams were originally in the Football league is that they competed in the Southern League at a time when there was a power battle between the Southern and Football leagues as to which would become the main and most prestigous league in Engalnd and Wales. In order to gain ascendency in the power battle the Football league adopted a policy of inviting leading Southern League teams to join the Football league in order to hoover up the best teams and improve it's standing over the Southern League. Which is why alongside a number of leading and now famous English teams Cardiff, Swansea Merthyr and Aberdare all became members of the Football League after accepting the invitation from the Football league. In fact it could be argued that they were poached from the Sothern League along with other clubs in order to improve the depth and standing of the Football League. I was watching Merthyr last season and there was an article in the programme which contained the league table from one of their last days in the Southern League before being invited to join the Football League, memory fails me now as to the number of well known subsequent EFL, Football League and Premier clubs that were in Southern League alongside Merthyr but Portsmouth is one that springs to mind. So perhaps the next time the scousers pipe up whining about Welsh teams competing in the Football League or other leagues point out to them that it was the Football League desperate to hoover up the best team at the time who invited the Welsh teams in to play in what then became the most important league in the country. | | | |
