Disco Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 BBC World Football Phone-In -> http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/wf Most recent one (last night) had a lot about Newcastle, discussing Ben Arfa, Cissé, Cabaye etc and their backgrounds and all that. Very good listen Cheers, haven't got around to listening to it yet but will do now. Enjoy when we get a mention. I've not listened but Top Brass is pretty pro-Toon like, went to Uni here. = Andy Brassell? Aye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 IRC Football @IRCFootball Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Michael Platini may abolish the Europa League and extend the Champions League. According to German newspaper "Bild" EDIT: Article is http://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/nachgehakt/kolumne-alfred-draxler-23525676.bild.html and it looks like nee quotes central. Awful idea either way like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 So they're going to put more teams in the Champion's League? It already has way too many Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 mkaes sense to me to just have 1 single european competition tbh. but do away with the champions tag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 what a daft idea, just make the Europa league a 2 leg knockout no seedings the whole way through, keeps it interesting Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 what a daft idea, just make the Europa league a 2 leg knockout no seedings the whole way through, keeps it interesting Nah, seedings are needed for the early rounds I think. If they took away the group stages they could have 2x - 4x the amount of teams in it. Give the smaller teams more of a chance to play someone is what I say.

Seedings are only needed to keep bigger teams in the competition. Screw that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Seems like an excellent idea to me. Just do away with the Champions league tag and call it the European cup again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Just want to say I hope Pepe gets an injury which keeps him out of football for a long time. He's a disgusting piece of shit. Watched a compilation of some of his filth before and couldn't believe what I was seeing. Makes Suarez look like an angel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Anyone else heard of the Real Madrid Island? Apparently it will have a 10k seater stadium which will host Real Madrid's friendlies, plus it will show all of Real Madrid's games in a giant hologram. The stadium will have one end open to the sea, the island will also have a Real Madrid museum amongst other things. I'm pretty sure it an April fools gone too far.

Beren Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 http://www.debatabledecisions.com/the-decisions-so-far Immediately discredited tbh. Nice idea, but five blokes who haven't watched it all isn't enough. Rio's ridiculously obviously foul on Demba Ba at SJP isn't on there - which is the first one I looked for. As it says though, not to be taken seriously - but then I suppose you wonder, what's the point of doing it at all if it's going to be done badly...
