Term used by football fans to refer to Ligue One, because it's lack of competitiveness and the common practice of recruiting peasants to fill the squads of the many zombie-teams that compound this insignificant league.
Some may tag Bundesliga as another Farmers League because of Bayern's supremacy in Germany. This may be discarded as German teams don't perform nearly as poorly as French teams in UCL, neither German squads recruit farmers

Pionel Pessi fan: Penaldo is finished, now playing in Saudi Arabia away from big leagues like the Uber Eats Ligue 1, the best tournament on earth
Unbiased football fan: Ligue 1 not even among top 20 European Leagues. Saudi Arabian League way more competitive than French Farmers League. In Saudi Arabia there are many teams that contend to win the title, in France there's only one, whose president buys anything with oil, even the rigged and disgraceful World Cup that he gave to the Argentinian goblin

A term used to as an insult to define an Association Fooball league that lacks depth of quality.
A farmers league can have a couple of good teams in it, but if the rest are that bad that a "farmer" could play in it, then it can be labelled a farmers league.
Plumbers league is a term that infers the same meaning and is used on occasion.
A league that is won by the same side, over and over again is not necessarily a farmers league, as it can still have other strong teams in it.
Ligue 1 is a good example of a farmers league as it only has 1 good side. The rest of the league consists of mediocrity.
Bundesliga and Serie A are not farmers leagues, as both leagues are full of good sides.

Ligue 1 is a dead set Farmers League. With the exception of PSG, it is mud. My uncle , who's a plumber, could get a game for a club like Strasbourg. My aunty, who's a farmers wife, would get a game for Auxerre.

Dangerous organization of geologist that discuss minerals like gold, platinum, uranium and coal. The organization doesn't like the coal mineral due to some historical moments. This organization is dangerous and should be locked up. They also like football players like mbappe.

1. Arrogant
2. an EPL supremacist. But in fact, the EPL teams especially big sixes are just all so terrible and inconsistent over multiple seasons to make it look competitive.
3. 12 y/old or under who just learned this term so he can show off his "new-found knowledge".
4. Someone who actually does not watch Bundesliga or Serie A.

A football league in which the champions are the same every year. The leagues are fun to watch, they score great goals but the ending is always the same unfortunately.
This term came from each of the football seasons in the 2010s. Teams like Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona & Juventus won their leagues many times in the 2010s. Only teams to stop them were Borussia Dortmund, Monaco, Montpellier, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and AC Milan.
The reason why the premier league isn’t a farmers league is because all their teams have lots of money to buy great players.

there aren't just 1 Farmers league, there are 3. Original, Pro and Pro max: this includes teams. Original is 2018 - 19 - 20 - 22 PSG, where's the 2021 you say? The 2021 is hosted by Olympique Lyonnais. The Pro is also same as Original, but the 2020 is hosted by Liverpool. The 18 19 and 21 22 is hosted by Manchester City. The Pro Max includes all years by one club, FC Bayern München. All the 4 years? Bayern.
