Worrall: Rangers bigger than Forest

[Walterbear 557]

The year they won it against malmo we KOd Eindhoven and Juve. Possibly our best chance of going all the way looking at the QF lineup. We were arguably the biggest club left in the tournament at that stage.

Today, we have a competition (CL) where I could probably name 6 of the quarter-finalists now, for next springs last eight.

 

Real Madrid

Barcelona

Bayern Munich

Juventus

Atletico Madrid

Manchester City

Liverpool

The old European Cup is so far removed from the CL. Let's face it, most teams that won it only had to play 5-7 competitive games to win it. If the draw was kind you could be playing teams from Malta, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Norway, Iceland, Finland etc. in the 1st round.
