Had the misfortune to get a glimpse of a match on TV the other night from the Northern Irish league - god what a load of excrement - I would put it equivalent to 8th or 9th tier in our money - hoof ball or what couldnt string one pass together.

Lol shocked..... that you have just realised!
Form 36 part time teams in birmingham, with only those able to play in the EFL or premiership allowed to leave.. Then see how good the standard is. Quite a ridculous statement, in the terms of what would you expect? Boca juniors?

Probably on a par with Scottish L1/2 and Lowland/Highland Leagues which get much more coverage.

No reason why NIFL or Welsh Prem shouldn't get just as much coverage as Scottish football on the BBC. Citizens in these devolved nations pay their licence fees as much as the rest of us.

That will never happen with the BBC. Good example was their website yesterday. World cup play offs with a UK team. Headlines are a black woman player complaining again that her team mates did not support her. Enough said about sports priorities and BBC

Surprised even that made a headline. “Ten whacky pitch designs from the world of soccer” is more the level of useless tosh on the bloated click-bait website they waste our licence fee on these days.
