There wouldn't be football if it wasn't for the CEOs 

Thats the same ridiculous argument you get with manual labourers moaning about top brass being paid more

If it wasn't for the top brass, the labourers wouldn't have a job

Football was born as a working mans sport, not a product of business. Its only in the last 30 years or so that money has seperated the largest clubs from the rest in most leagues and we now have a situation where the same clubs dominate year after year.

Agree to a certain extent that only we can control our destiny but there's a limit to what we can realistically achieve, especially when our FA have held us back for years and more and more European Nations pass us by.

And a quick language lesson to  spark a fun conversation in the pub if you happen to chance upon any Sporting fans (green & white hooped cnuts) or looking for a match thread title that will suffice

Foda-Se Sporting (FY Sporting)

Sporting comedia de Portugal (Sporting, the laughing stock of Portugal...  this is common!)

Lagarto Cabrao (bastard wizard...  Its what the Benfica call them. strange, but seems to work ?

Does that mean that the likes of AC Milan and Rijeka are unseeded?

That would just be our fucking luck; beat Lisbon, only to draw Milan. ?

Must be a pretty good line up of seeds if Milan can't get in there.  Seeded teams will be full of Champions League drop outs no doubt. 

Actually Besiktas & Viktoria Plzen are the only seeded Champions League drop outs.
