[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 158572"] That's not necessarily the case. The GP is definitely better run because it has proper European qualification as opposed to the ML. Speaking from an Irish perspective, it appears as though Irish provinces get up for interprovincial fixtures and the rest of their home games. They can take or leave their games in Scotland and Wales. When 1/3 of the season is viewed with less importance than the rest, it's hard to take the league as seriously as it no doubt requires. The GP is fine as is. It can continue making a lot of money if it follows the same trajectory as it's currently on. On the other hand, problems such as club and country fixtures clashing, are holding it back somewhat. As I see things, widening the base of the league can eradicate that problem. I could be wrong though. [/QUOTE]
