Bluto10 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 ^^^^ whilst I agree with your point vda and I also prefer the older format of 3 euro trophies knockout Your attitude of withdrawing is typically negative and Scottish. 'Europe being a closed shop for scotland' should be another glaringly obvious symptom of the state ourr game has stagnated in for decades. It should be another catalyst for improvement across the game but prob easier to do nothing about it Link to comment

shut up meg Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Bluto, how are you supposed to break into a closed shop? Look at the points system below Points system1. Each team gets two points for a win and one point for a draw (points are halved for matches in the qualifying and play-off rounds). 2. Clubs that reach the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals or final of the UEFA Champions League, or the quarter-finals, semi-finals or final of the UEFA Europa League, are awarded an extra point for each round. 3. In addition, four points are awarded for participation in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League and four points for qualifying for the round of 16. If I understand the above correctly a team from a smaller league requires to win 4 games in the qualifying rounds to match the points total that one of the 26 teams who are dropped straight into the group stage before the top 26 have even kicked a ball. UEFA should just go the whole hog and make it a NFL style model. Link to comment
Tommy Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Uefa confirming that they are corrupt as fuck.The CL has ruined my appetite for European games.The old European Cup for Champions only on a knock out basiswas far better.It’s so wrong that, and I despise them, Celtic will have so many qualifying games yet so many2nd, 3rd and 4th place clubs walk straight to the league stage.As for the Europa League, it’s a joke anyway when failures get parachuted in from the CL qualifiers.

The same teams get a bite at the cherry every year along with the same players. That opportunity had to be earned. Teams regularly beat European records because they get to play every year whereas the may not have before. Football is barely even a sport nowadays. Someone mentioned the NFL, at least each NFL team has a fair chance at success, that’s not the case in football. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 PSGLOL think Spurs will progress tonight.Would expect a full house also; very impressive crowd of so. English teams all looking strong this year. Even stuttering Man U will be difficult to beat (over 2 legs) with Jose in charge. Tonight's prediction:10-12 pints. :beers: Link to comment

Bluto10 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Be funny if the Gooners go out also. Painful watching how bad they are these days. Almost feel sorry for them. A world away from the days of Adams and Bergksmp Link to comment

Probably wanting to punch him even more than normal: 'English football is the best, best country in the world mate. I luv Wembley... now someone get me another fortified beer!' Link to comment
