compo 6,126 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I see a report in one of today's papers telling us that the east end bhoys will have to play eight games in eight weeks to qualify for the champions league ,how many matches were we forced into prior the Ethiad final . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,589 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Agreed, although it is ridiculous that some national champions have to play 4 qualifiers when some teams that finish 3rd in their league waltz straight in to the league stages. Hopefully we're affected by this quite soon (ie as national champions). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,240 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 If ever there was a year and season that showed how deep in Scum FC's pockets the SFA and SPL was, it's been 2008. An utter disgrace ... and unless I am mistaken, no journalist has ever taken up on that and criticized the authorities for there behaviour. In fact, it should have been a matter for UEFA to investigate, but as it is now, they hardly ever do so with national associations. Which is kind of strange, as on the other hand, any whisper that these associations do without consent of UEFA - if it touches their authority - is being shot down in flames at the earliest possible moment. Demand everything, but show no responsibility whatsoever. Wonder how these authorities would take it if we sue them for loss of prize money (due to Scum FC stealing the title) and CL entrance money (same reason) due to neglecting the protection of the interest of all their members and in clear preferance to the interest of just one. The 10th anniversary comes up soon. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenny3k 500 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 How do you manage that then Lenny?? Just realised how that was written, sounds impossible I play every Saturday but then the team also sometimes has matches on Wednesday evenings to make up for postponed matches from earlier in the season or cup matches.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
