Malta will be the only European Country not to have a team from its Capital in the top division as Valletta have just been relegated to the 2nd tier

Valletta being relegated would be like Arsenal going down. This was their first relegation in their history.

I support Qormi Fc as thats where my Grandad was from. They used to be in the Premier League and have largely been a Prem club but in the last few years have struggled, they're in the Amateur Division now :D which is the 3rd tier of Malta.

There's also a Gozo league, which has a 1st and 2nd division. Mad stuff for a tiny place

They had a bit of money behind them a few years ago and played West Ham in europa league qualifying, only losing on penalties after 2 legs.

They had Miccoli up front, ex Italy international

Sadly not, when I say I support them I mean I check their Facebook account for their results lol. I did actually watch Birkirkara v Qormi in the Malta Premier League when I was on holiday there once and I also brought home the home and away shirt

That’s definitely not true :D

There’s maybe 6 stadiums on the island and they all share them, the biggest being the national stadium Ta Qali which has a capacity of about 17k
