Dave from Little Sutton! It's the father of my brother-in-law's girlfriend! He's the reason she won't support Everton. He won't go to Goodison while Silva is manager? He won't be going to Goodison when he's not manager, hasn't 'gone the game' in years. Small world, eh?

Wouldn’t your brother in laws girlfriend be your dad?

Think of it in terms of a knight's move in chess -  Forward two, across one, or forward one, across two.

 

His brother in law can either be his sister's husband, or his wife's brother, who has a girlfriend, whose dad this story is about.

I was reading yesterday that 3rd place in a Europa League group will see teams drop into the Conference for the second round, same as the way they do it in the CL now. Also, winning the Conference League gets you a spot in the Europa League the following season. What more incentive do you need?

Wait, so they just have to get in to the conference cup, win that, with entry into europa league next year, win that, with entry into the champions league the year after, win that, then reject the trophy because "its not what it used to be lid"

It was great when all three European competitions meant something. The UEFA and the Cup Winners, or at least the knockout format, got devalued when the Champions League got expanded. It's a real shame, used to love those European nights.

This.

It appears the white knights of morality have wiped the memory of their own transgressions from history. Or maybe they just didn't happen at all.

 

 

 

Anyone posted about Gary Hyland in reply?

On that Europa Conference League thing, real shame they haven’t basically just reprised the Cup Winner’s Cup. Don’t know why they ever dropped it.

 

What an absolutely shit name for a European trophy as well. The Poundstretcher Cup. They must have Gerald Ratner as head of branding.

Ratner was honest, so no chance of a job at FIFA/UEFA/MAFIA

I think the trouble with the cup winners cup was once they expanded the CL, the cup winners were often already in the CL so it was getting more rare for actual cup winners to be in the CWC. The expansion of the CL was always going to undermine the other competitions.
