    I'm saying nowt about the players. There've been two or three posting on here saying Brazilian top tier is equivalent to Championship. Load of tosh.

    It'd be more rewarding to clarify butter.

    Not sure that's true mate

    Have you ever clarified butter? Thoroughly boring and pointless procedure. Far easier to buy some ghee from shop and you get a better product.

    but you end up with clarified butter, which is your reward.

    People don't seem to understand Pete's post, they've just got wound up about the swiss league? Which is slightly more random then the lottery, if I apply your level of disagreement formula obviously.

    I'm not wound up, just underwhelmed.

    If so, Jay might be right afterall.

    Unfortunately I've yet to experience that level of satisfaction - mainly because you can buy it from the shop just down the road.

    Maybe if I did it myself I wouldn't be such a moaning sod. Although having said that I don't like to get on the players backs at all - I suppose we were a little spoiled with Hume.

    You're right. I didn't mention the Swiss league in this post. I did somewhere suggest that Basle are better than any team in the Championship tho'. Didn't think it would be that controversial.</p>

    And once more back to the OP. Several comments on several threads stating that the Brazilian top flight was comparable to the Championship. This thread is tangental to that and is not really about players we've signed or where they've come from. My original statement that I'm sticking to is that the Brazilian top flight is a higher standard than the Championship. I know nothing about our new signings or where they've played their football.
