Doc, you get to choose the leagues for Season 61, don't forget!

All right English and Scottish Premier leagues.

BTW when does Blueshirt choose?

I dunno... maybe when I actually do well in this damn thing?! At
the moment I seem to be on the wrong end of dodgy VAR calls plus
the balls they are using in the selected leagues are way too
light. <shrugs> It seems I'm just unlucky... maybe one day?

I'd pick the League of Ireland and the Irish League though...
just to confuse the hell out of people. :-)

League of Ireland plays in the summer, though, no?
Shamrock Rovers have been quite impressive in the Conference league.

I wish we did have more variety in the leagues chosen. Maybe 2nd or 3rd
Bundesliga, or French Ligue 2 ? Or the Belgian league which seems
suitably unpredictable this year, as is the Swiss league.

Kind of, the League of Ireland season runs from February to
November... so there is some overlap with the traditional
European football seasons. But, with the big European clubs
playing friendlies and overseas tours in "the summer" nowadays,
you could just say that the League of Ireland has a decent
"winter break"!

The Irish League (now the NIFL) season runs from August to
March, so there is a few months where the two Irish leagues
overlap. So they are the two leagues I'd pick if my choice ever
occurred during that time... just to be different obviously!

They've done well.

It doesn't matter to me, I'd still probably lose!

With that world club cup thingy in the US in June & July this year it
looks like everyone will be playing in the summer now

You want unpredictability ? Pick the NHL for your contests.

Yes, why does the English league get picked so often? I officially
propose that picking the English league is banned until at least 10
other leagues have been picked at least 3 times.

For once, I agree with you... which is why I wouldn't be picking
an English league if the choice ever came around to me... So if
ye all let me win in Season 61 and 62 (or however many seasons I
have to win to get there), you WILL get something different! :-)

C'mon... you know it makes sense!

It makes sense... almost, as it's the runner-up who picks the league. :)

(Next time, focus your pitch on "if I win, Futbolmetrix doesn't". You'll
get at least one vote.)
