But what is really criiminal is Corbyn and his commie cnuts doing everything they can to stop what 17 million people voted for. I say that as someone who's only ever voted for Labour.
Except that's not what they are trying to do at all.

Unfortunately yes, Macron and Juncker have already said that if Britain is no longer part of the EU then they need not necessarily be part of its cultural interlinks either, whereby aspects like participation in the UEFA Champions League will need to bartered on during the next phase of the divorce negotiations. Clubs from non-EU countries like Russia and Israel participate on an invite basis similar to that of Cardiff participating in the English football leagues, so this invite may well not be extended to ourselves in the case of an acrimonious divorce.

Thank you. This is what I suspected might be the case as well. So if England is not invited, then there is no inherent right to participate.

The EU should take over the European CL. Non EU countries will of course still be able to join but they be forced to accept a 3 non EU player rule which is meant to give EU players more opportunities for work. Can you imagine if that had to happen? Gaz head would simply implode

The only thing UEFA care about is money and the English teams bring in far too much of that for them to want rid of us.
