Re: British Super League
There'd be no NI teams needed to form a `British' league. If it was a UK league, yes.
As has been pointed out, there's no team big enough in NI and I doubt there'd be much enthusiasm for a newly-created club.

Re: ARTICLE: Clarets land 16-year old defender from Northern Ireland
Speaking of former defenders we signed from NI, I keep seeing Curtis Woods up at the Mary Peters Track. He was a top quality 400m runner in his day and can still shift. Much better runner than he was footballer, arguably. Playing for Ballyclare Comrades (what a name), I think.

NI lost all 4 Nations League games, while Ireland drew 2 and lost 2 - and yet here they both are, still with a chance to make the finals.
