AC Milan could play in the Champions League

esmufc07 · 4th June 2008, 10:35

The bulgarian football federation has asked that CSKA Sofia will be excluded from the next Champions League preliminary round cause of their financial situation; if UEFA will accept this request, the club that would replace the bulgarian team would be the one wit the highest UEFA coefficient, that means AC Milan. The italian club was involved in the opposite situation in 2006, when Lens asked to be admitted to the Champions League instead of Milan tha was involved in a corruption scandal.

Interesting, would this have happened had Milan finished 4th? I'll leave you conspiracy theorists to work that one out

AC MIlan = the new Liverpool.

Jammy fucks.

Sarni · 4th June 2008, 10:48

I promise I won't watch CL next season if this happens.

Jiggs'Hamstring · 4th June 2008, 10:50

That would be such bullshit

Edit: I've just read the article and pieces with that many spelling and grammatical errors are normally bollocks, so I'm gonna save up my anger for something more concrete.

I've just read that they will allow Levski Sofia instead, which would make way more sense.

esmufc07 · 4th June 2008, 10:53

I'd prefer AC over Levski Sofia. You want the best of the best in the Champions League.

FranklyVulgar · 4th June 2008, 11:07

Thats bull, AC always find a way and what kinda crap is it that a team wants out of the champions league because of a financial situation? wouldn't any team in a financial situation want to be in the champions league to make some money!??? nonsense.

Coca Cola · 4th June 2008, 11:11

Would be a disgrace if that happens. But somehow I wouldn´t be surprised, Berlusconi has connections.

In reality you want teams who did well over a period of a season to be in the Champions League. Not teams who blag their way in.

reddevilcanada · 4th June 2008, 11:28

the corrupt fucks always find a way to cheat, that's how they won it last year when they shouldn't have even been in the competition...mafia bastards

Rahul · 4th June 2008, 11:34

I just heard about this

Its almost laughable, you almost knew theyw would find some way back in.

Levski would have blagged their way in, no?

Yeah but they will still represent Bulgaria instead of doing what Liverpool did. That is fair enough

Maroon Lucifer · 4th June 2008, 12:07

You get a lot of money just to participate, so it makes no sense that you choose to abandon because of financial reasons. Of course... it makes sense if AC Milan gave them a better offer than UEFA

it's the licence I believe. CSKA couldn't obtain one for playing in europe because of their debt, unpaid wages and stuff. They have missed some deadlines or something.

UEFA will give them more time to sort things out I believe.

AC Milan can go fuck themselves.

REd FUn DevIl · 4th June 2008, 14:05

ffs this is unfair. It cant be true. They didnt earn the right to be in the tournament.

If this happens then Whats the point of a championship and positions in the table when you know uefa will do anything to keep famous clubs in the tournament anyway. I rather watch Levski Sofia or any champions of a lesser league than see Milan get a chance when they didnt earn it.

olesmyhero · 4th June 2008, 14:07

What'd the fuck? That'd be complete bullshit if true.

ecantona7 · 4th June 2008, 14:44

is this a joke?

Dippersripper · 4th June 2008, 14:46

Would be great to see them back in the CL although not this way. Maybe, they could take out a La Liga team instead?

cesc's_mullet · 4th June 2008, 14:53

I don't get this.

So they're banning Sofia; from the most lucrative sporting contest in the world; due to their poor financial circumstances?

Mmmm.

Why would it be great?

They didn't earn their fucking spot. Hence, they're not in it.

Razwan000 · 4th June 2008, 14:56

Champions League Dream In Tatters
Milan’s hopes of playing in next season's Champions League have been dashed after the Bulgarian FA (BFU) decided to give the UEFA license to Levski Sofia.

Il Diavolo appeared to have been handed a lifeline as Bulgaria’s FA has asked that champions CSKA Sofia be thrown out from the Champions League due to financial problems.

Reports suggested that Milan would be given the place as the highest UEFA ranked team not in the competition.

However, Rossoneri hopes have gone up in smoke as it has emerged that the Bulgarian autho
