      No, they should go back to calling it the European Cup and keep the current format. There's a reason why Platini & his fellow bureaucrats earn so much money, and it's because of the TV and sponsorship cash that is there to invest in a tournament with the best teams.

      Sky, Mastercard and the rest of them are not going to fork out squillions for FC Retsina v Dynamo Tractorworks. That's what the UEFA cup is for. The premier club tournament in the world needs the best clubs - and that means several clubs from the best leagues. English clubs have made the final three years running, and had three clubs in this year's semis. Recently we had three Italian clubs in the semis. That shows the strength of these leagues.

      The tournament is much stronger and harder to win these days than in the old format, where only a handful of decent teams would be playing. These days every tinpot newly balkanised or seceding nation would get a seat and we'd soon end up with Ushka Pristina v Partisan Podgorica in the quarter finals.

      People like to have romantic ideas, but they don't think them through. :shakeshead:

          Prediction - Liverpool to win on penalties in Athens. Any takers?

                  Jeez, reds, you are as useless as tits on a bull .
                  “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

                          We need to get Drogue, Ming or Rah to edit the title. The person who spelt the title wrong might perhaps PM one of those Mods begging for a correction ....
