So MR Platini wants to do away with the Europa league,he wants 20 groups in the champions league,it works out 6 teams from each country going into it.How it works top 4 teams go through and 5 and 6th placed team go into a play off ,Platini and co,are apparently in talks about this and if it gets the go ahead should be in place by 2015 what do you blues think i think it will be a great idea Stef the blue
Awful idea. There is already a load of crap teams in the Champions League, without adding more to it.
Mike
Mike it will give us a better chance of getting in to it who cares what other teams are in it look at the money that is in the champions league we could do with some of that.Stef the blue
It will give other teams a chance of getting champs league money ie a opportunity to compete with the richer clubs.
Robbie
Yeah, the money would be good, I just don't like the idea, sorry. And what would they call it? as it surely wont be called The Champions League. Maybe ''The Champions and a bunch of crap to make up the numbers League''.
I'd just leave it the way it is, only change it so that the 3rd placed teams in the group stages don't get to go into the Europa League.
Mike
Mike there already looking into a new name aswel this might not even go ahead its something there looking at be honest champions league is the wrong name anyway how can a team that finishes 3rd and 4th be called a champion ,but i think its a great idea and they should of reviewed this a long time ago it would be great for our club .Stef the blue
The Europa league as it stands is a nonsense, goes on longer than one of Bills plays, a never ending list of matches for a poxy trophy, also why should failing Champions League failures join in, once your out your out. Anything to improve it would be welcome
I agree with mike on this the champs league is all about playing barca, real and Milan not bate borisov or Apoel! Who? Exactly.
BlueClarkey
Adding more teams makes the champions league significantly less lucrative.
nobody wants to watch the ukrainian runners up against the team that finished 5th in france, so it's not gonna get enough money.
best to leave it as it is and have teams striving to improve so they can make it in.
Unsurprisingly as it comes from Platini, it's an awful idea.
It reduces the value of European competition even more than it has been already for the sake of an extra Euro every so often. I'd stop caring about Europe at all if this happens. Bring back the old ways, European Cup for the "champions", Cup Winners Cup, and UEFA cup. All 3 of those (especially that one time we won) meant more than any Champions League trophy.

david moyes to start contract talks inthe new year with everton, best news so far imwt
toffee shaun
Didnt say he would start contract talk, he said he is going to wait and see who is allowed to leave and who comes in before deciding, i dont blame him either, we need at least 2 quality signings in january
It's good he is waiting to see what the boards plans are in taking us forward.., kind of thinly veiled threat?
