Why are Scotland crap? That was the ITV post match chat.
Ian Wright compared them to Norway.
And he linked national team performance to domestic league media rights valuations.
I can see the point but not sure he's right. Or at least, it's a bit simplistic.
There's a lot of links in that chain.
I've never seen a breakdown between average match attendance and media rights values - I assumed the latter is often skewed by local competition in the media market rather than actual quality of the product.
And what of the link between the commercial appeal of the domestic league and national team performance?
If you throw in this Sportico chart it doesn't make it easy to draw that conclusion.
