    Swear Spain and France will do anything to fast track their way to money instead of investing in the rest of the clubs in their league and marketing it properly. Instead they just suck off the 3 clubs they care about who already have all the money.

    PSG has definitely gotten a grip in the US market at least in terms of visibility and recognition. I see lots of kids with PSG gear even though they may not follow the team closely.

    Do Quebecois follow Ligue 1 in the same way that english speaking Canadians/Americans follow the PL?

    As opposed to cup games, preseason friendlies, etc.

    ‘Regular season’ adds more context to people only really familiar with American sports as well (though I’m not sure how many American’s unfamiliar with European leagues would be clicking on an article about Ligue 1 in the first place).

    Yeah, that wording doesn’t really make sense unless then mean it won’t be a cup game or a game in the champions league/Europa league/conference league

    I don’t think it would go that well, PSG’s really the only French team that could draw a half decent crowd in the US, otherwise you’re probably looking at Mazatlan-Juarez repeats.

    Given that people consider it a Farmers League - let’s send some matches to Idaho or Iowa.

    In all seriousness, who has thought that this could be a good idea? No league has done that, and the only time Spanish League did that, nobody liked it.
