I think booing the Champions League Anthem is a tremendous idea. I hope it catches on.

Are Chelsea going to be playing their home games at the Amex ?

We could get them in the group stages, I suppose.

Looking at current form ... are Chelsea going to get in the champions league next 2 seasons ? Still think my dream is the more likely !
No doubt about that, surely.

I wish English clubs would just Boycott the FIFA/UEFA crap. UEFA needs us more than we need them.
Unlike all the other european leagues, the British leagues would survive easily without UEFA. All they seem to do is either fine British clubs or ban them from europe. The English game and our superior depth down the leagues can't be matched even close by any other nation on earth.
Uefa can F off.

Frankly if I owned City, I'd tell EUFA to stick their anthem and their Cup op their 'arrises !

Look forward to booing the Champions league theme at the Amex season after next .... a tad optimistic ?
A splendid aspiration. And then we can all boo, too.
Unfortunately I doubt that's the case. A lot of top players won't play here if there's no hope of CL football, and other clubs won't notice we're missing.

They were booing because UEFA imposed a (suspended) £50 million fine on Manchester City and cut the size of their squad for being in breach of FFP rules.

I think it would be the death of the CL if a nation like England pulled out of it (not that it will happen). Foreign clubs all hope for a good English cup tie when the fixture are due.
They seemed to cope fine when we were missing in the 80s.

Cobblers, the CL would carry on just fine without us. Foreign teams no more look for an English cup tie than a Spanish, Italian or German.
Don't believe the perpetual Sky Sports hype-machine hogwash. The Premier League isn't the be-all and end-all to everyone else.

I don't but what other country has lower divisions as strong and well supported as ours? European football is still seen 2nd to league football in this country. You've only got to see the starting line-ups our English clubs are putting out in Europe to believe that.

Why, we rarely do very well. When we were banned for hooligan behaviour years ago, the Euro Comps ticked over ok, and the only ones that missed it was us! Besides which, all the foreign players that play in our premier would just move to participating teams.
That said, it's beyond me how in Gods name any organisation can award themselves an 'Anthem' ! We'll all be expected to stand still for a minute in Waitrose, when they decide to play a John Lewis Anthem every day. Has Gus announced the arrival of his new Anthem yet, I'm sure he'll think he deserves one!

The champions league has lost all its sparks and like many I can't remember the last one I watched.

No other country in the world has anywhere near 92 professional clubs across 4 divisions, attracting the kind of support ours do. But whats that got to do with the Champions League ? It certainly wouldn't "die a death" without the presence of the PL clubs.
