ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

Status
Not open for further replies.
Can someone explain how it's possible to have one group with both Barcelona and Juventus, another with both PSG and Bayern, and another with both Real Madrid and Dortmund? Those are 6 of the best maybe 8 or 9 teams in the world, all stacked together. I'm not trying to act incredulous or cynical, I just genuinely don't understand how that happens.

Had to be stacked together to avoid Liverpool (which, to be fair, all of them asked UEFA to do). So basically Liverpool got a group with The New Saints, Spice Girls and BVD09 Wirral (being the only 3 lots left). There should be one hell of an atmosphere when they take on Birkenhead Venereal Disease FC at The Bebington Oval in game one. Of course they will be at home in Match 6 - against a tough looking Spice Girls especially if the Girls can get Posh fit in time.
 
I can explain, the League Champions of Europes top nations automatically go into pot 1, the teams in pots 2, 3 and 4 are in order of coefficient (ranking based on the past 5 season in both European competitions) so, you basically have the top 16 teams over the past 5 seasons in Europe split into pot 1 and 2. Unless there's a surprise Like Leics or maybe Monaco winning the League. League Champions going into Pot 1. (Leics were in pot1 last season). So you have Juve (Champions) with Barca (runners up remember), Madrid (champions ) with Dortmund (high coefficient) Munich (champions) with PSG (runners up remember) and so on. Leipzig finished runners up in Germany, but haven't played in Europe in the 5 year period, so their coefficient was low, hence them being in Pot 4.
At least make an effort mate

The original poster wanted to know how the draw was made, I explained, he's liked my post for explaining it. So what's with the dig? Are only RS supposed to know how the draw happens? This forum is weird sometimes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with what I posted and yet I get loads of sarcasm, digs and sh#£## remarks!
 
Dont be too offended there Kingh. You must admit yourself that your eager post has a certain zeal and forensic examination redolent of the "Rainman" type bores on RAWK. This coupled with the fact most Evertonians have that certain je ne sais quoi...and wouldnt be arsed explaining thus may clarify the critique.

?????? Poster wants explaination of draw, poster explains. My eager post? A certain zeal? Forensic examination? I. ANSWERED. A. QUERY. Jesus, I can't believe I'm coming in for stick for answering a posters query!!!!!!! In the words of Chris Kamara, unbelievable. I would have thought that most fans of most teams would know how it works anyway, because, y'know, we're all football fans. And because, well, we're in Europe too. Surely every footy fan knows that it's seeded and it's worked on coefficients? No? Our draw was pretty much worked the same, the top seeds in Pot 1 etc etc etc. Not rocket science. Do our fans have the same Je ne said quoi regarding that? Other than the Champions of each top League going into pot 1, it's worked exactly the same.

Calm yourself...I was actually trying to help you understand why people reacted to your post that way not criticising it, per se. Read it back. I don't care what you post in all honesty.

You wasn't criticising it, then went in to say that it was an eager post that has a certain zeal and forensic examination redolent of the"Rainman" type bores on RAWK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Not quite sure what you want me to explain, 1 + 1 = 2 ? What? Why the sacrcasm regarding Leics? The poster asked for an explanation, I give it. 'it's not a fix, these things just happen' wouldn't really be an explanation, would it? Just to help you out
