Even that won't work, may get a few fans from the bigger Welsh clubs but not a lot of support to really get any interest going. Not enough South Wales based teams that are attractive to the public. For me I support Prestatyn as I lived there for a few years.
No games on TV as of yet, don't think Bala's will be, they play tonight, Prestatyn on Thursday

I went to one welsh league game (not premier) and I quite enjoyed it. With more investment I think the welsh leagues could do well, just need to target plastic man ure, liverpools, chavski fans etc.

How is it a fact? The Irish league is hardly prolific.

No but Irish teams are now qualifing to the group stage of the UEFA Cup so there's progess on the field. There is also progress off the field with attendance figures raising as people have got at least some standard of football to watch during the summer months,

As for Irish football, SKY shows some games from Northern Ireland. Crowds seem decent enough. Always thought of Northern Ireland as a proper football country. The Irish Football Association is the fourth oldest in the world. Shame that the southern clubs broke away.

They are calling for Northern Irish teams to follow the South in going for a summer league
