Nope. You have stated it was a gift that the reds were given an additional place. It is nothing new. Prior to the change of rules, an FA could appeal to UEFA if a team won it but didn't qualify the following season. Where is the "going around in circles" there?
Why should be have been embarrbutted? We'd just won it a few months earlier after being 3 goals down at half time? Liverpool only wanted to defend their title of being the Champions of Europe.
... in the knockout stages, which comes after the league stage, which came after the preliminary stages, that's quite a few matches more than the BS managed...
Yep. The BS supporters spent an age screaming they were in the ECL, when actually they were in the preliminary knock outs. Where they were preliminarily knocked out and then knocked out of the UEFA cup - so after the shouting, screaming, wild jubilations, the BS went back to the mediocrity they'd enjoyed for so many seasons. That *is* embarrbutting no matter how you look at it.
And my dad has bigger balls than yours...
Um, nope. Do it. Show me the error of my ways. I enjoy making you look like a bigger arsehole than we already know you are...
I did qualify what I said (something along the lines of "I'm not sure but")
Correct. The Spanish FA then had to let UEFA know who had the final word on the matter.
Ah, Bernice - when will you learn, it is you who is the stupid cnut... Everyone on here just enjoys making you look a bigger tit than you already are. Now go back to Bolton and enjoy your team. -- "ist du meine Mutter?" - der leerkinde
