Football teams

[David Humphries]

Just why the sudden drop in points from 8 to 5 in similar european competitions? And then the FA cup should surely be worth more the amount of teams involved.

 

Think the system was a bais creation from a liverpool supporter

 

I'm sure if I had the time I could easily change the points system to favour man utd:biggrin:

Imagine it's down to quantity & quality of opposition (Barca, Madrid, Inter etc.....) in attaining one of the big Euro cups as opposed to beating low leaguers (Port Vale, Wigan, Everton .....eg) in the FA cup.

I suppose its a way that liverpool fans (or plastic scousers) can make themselves feel better. Is there any other point to this?

The fact remains that Liverpool are a club in terminal decline left behind by Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, United and even Spurs.

35million for Carroll? Newcastle must be wetting themselves!

Ps Arsenal fan.

Arsenal, having a bad start to the season, granted. But there's one fact that everyone forgets, arsenal are the only team who have never been relegated!
