The most exciting league in the world

How can anyone call the English Premier League the most exciting in the world? The football may be a lot better to watch than Spanish and Italian football, but the title only has two teams chasing it.

To my mind there is a league that matches the Premiership for exciting football and it has a great scrap for the title and an engrossing battle against relegation.

The name of that league? None other than the Coca-Cola Championship, which also has the excitement of the chase for play-off places added to the mix.

Ok so the quality is lower than the Premier League but the football is even faster and more frenetic to make up for it. The lead seems to swap hands every week and the relegation fight is wide open. It is at least the equal of the EPL.

I agree I think the essence of good sport is that it is competetive, 2 evenly matched teams or competitors are exciting to watch no matter what the standard , but few top leagues in the world can match the quality of the CCC.

i agree that the premiership isn't the best in the world but not all the exciting games on monday came in the championship a lot came from league 1 and 2, eg. Swansea 3-0 Port Vale, Yeovil 2-1 Leyton Orient


Chelsea to win the championship
Swansea to get promoted to the championship

Swansea: Lee Trundle, Leon Britton, Andy Robinson, Willy gueret, and Bayo Akinfenwa rock

Chelsea: Cech, Terry, Carvalho, Robben, Ballack, Essien, Lampard, Sheva, Kalou and drogba rock

Fact: Bundesliga is the most exciting league. Far better quality than the championship and it's always close at the top.

There is a fantastic finish to the Eredivisie this year but in truth I don't think half the teams in the league are up to championship standard.
