    Yup, each English team will lose 4.8 Mill if Liverpool get entered. Also if they go int the qualifying rounds it is likley there multi million pound tour of Japan would have to be canceled. Hopefully they can go right into the group stages and the lowest ranking team be put down to the qualifying rounds.

    The Turkish FA will go nuts. I don't think that will happen. Also Everton will go nuts if they lose out on £5million.

    A good compromise would be for Liverpool to receive no prize money (since they didn't qualify by right) and have to enter at the first qualifying round, meaning the cancellation of their pre-season tour of Japan and friendlies against some German teams.

    If it's that important to them, they shouldn't baulk at that

    They're in.

    They'll have to cancel their friendlies and their tour of the Far East but will get a share of the prize pot. This share will be smaller than the other four Premiership teams but at least it's not an equal share. I suspect only Everton will argue this - tho' Man Utd's new board () may also register their disapproval with UEFA.

    Also they won't get any country protection meaning that they could get drawn in the same qualifying group as Chelsea or Arsenal (not Man Utd).

    there is also a new football rule (for testing) starting with the WK -20.


    it's about the offside rule, if a player gets a pass when he is offside but he does not touch the ball it isnt offside

    That seems to be a good idea but will lead to more players standing in offside positions hoping to get between defender and goalkeeper should the move break down.

    It will at least clear up the ambiguity that currently exists where it's really down to the ref's assistant's discretion whether a player is offside if the ball doesn't go near him.


    Btw, I also think it's unfair that Liverpool got the rules changed for them, poor Zaragoza

    I'm still wondering how they've been integrated into the first qualifing round. To add an extra team doesn't seem possible

    Also seeing as Man City didn't get Liverpools Uefa cup place who did? Or does that tournament play with 1 less team which again seems impossible

    Don't think they've decided who yet. It will prolly be the next team down in the fair play league or something.

    Apparently they are playing Man City in a pre-qualifying qualifier with the winner going into the first round of the qualifying stages proper, the loser going into the UEFA cup.

    But then wouldn't it mean Man City, who finished 8th could get into the Champions League if im reading you right?

    A Liverpool Vs Man City match with winner going into CL and loser into the EC. Surley if they did this it should be Everton Vs Liverpool and that would be unfair on Everton as they earned there place.
