      Historic European cup wins from 2024 will now give permanent points towards coefficient.

      Although Im struggling to find the article that explains this.

      So the old Saturday/Wednesday/Sunday fixture will now become a Saturday/Monday/Wednesday/Friday/Sunday routine.

      Rock on.

      180 CL group/league games from 2024. Up from 96 now.

      Yes there will be a few more 'top' games but there will also be a hell of a lot of Salzburg v FC Basel.

      And at the end of those 180 games you could finish 24th out of 36 in the table and still win the Champions League.

      Crackers.

      Shambles.

      I believe it's like another 100 CL games which will work out an extra 6 more games.  :f_doh: Don't ask me how that fits into the current campaign. I thought there was talking of reducing how many game we played in a calendar year not increasing it.  :f_doh: No doubt more injuries across the board when this goes ahead.  :f_steam:

      It's a real shame we've not been able to get any energy going towards kicking off at this.

      Just a watered down ESL really and needs binning off asap.
