Have you considered applying to be president of UEFA when Platini heads off to FIFA?

Yes, but I wasn't happy with their pension plan (they offered equity in Blatter's wine collection), so negotiations broke down.

Not the worst idea, as long as they actually use some common sense in scheduling and giving fans special tournament passports to bypass the rigmarole of crossing multiple borders.

You couldn't have a team play in Dublin one game and then Donetsk 4-5 days later.

Qatar WC will be perfectly organized, they have passion, plans and most importantly money to make it true. Y'all jealous.

Of course, if you don't agree you must be jealous.

i don't like the idea but that starts with expanding the tournament to 24 teams... srsly why would anyone want to see malta vs san marino at the ec? why do the teams need to qualify? could also play a big tournament around europe for 6 weeks with all of the countries in it.
and play it across europe? so if there is a game in madrid will spain play at home or will there be lets say norway vs croatia?
everyone that felt the experience of a tournament in his country knows that this is a unique thing and shouldn't change. all the atmosphere etc. that we had here in 2006 was just great. and if countries like ukraine and polan can handle the financial part i don't see why italy spain etc can not do it in the future also

look over the countries budgets and you got yourself an answer.

there's no justification in spending a huge amount on the euros if your country cant pay the bills.

you think platini and co care about it? the only thing they care is their own pocket. they could get so much money out of marketing and sponsering it is incredible. they can sell sponser deals for mercedes lufthansa etc in germany for fiat in italy for seat in spain etc.... it just about making more money for platini it is not about the fans or the financial part of a country

pardon me. but what on earth are you talking about?

i was clearly talking about the financial burden of the host country. not whether or not UEFA would earn money on the event.

you didnt understand why Spain and Italy couldnt host the EUROs under the current financial situation and i pointed out to you why. what does that have to do with Platini and UEFA??

If people are going to have a moan at UEFA, then direct attention towards the stupidity of increasing the number of participants of the Euro tournament to 24 teams.

indeed.

sounds like a wonderful idea really.

i know what you were talking about... but i was just pointing out that they don't care. if i remember correct italy wanted to host the ec in 2012 and 2016 and failed in their bids. and there could also be huge benefits with the new stadiums etc.

"We have some decisions to make now, some political, some geographical, for example we cannot have an English fan going to Lisbon, Kazakhstan and Sweden.

"We will have an intelligent solution, not chasing the fans all over Europe. The Euros are coming to the fans and taking matches to quite a number of countries. We have met with supporters' associations recently and have reassured them we will do whatever is possible to make sure fans get the necessary support when they travel."

Israel aren't recognised by most of the clubs in the AFC lol....(well the Western side of the AFC)

 

[Fred]

and rightfully so, they can keep playing in Europe, good riddance.

Plus that way, we can ensure that we won't have to see them in the WC or any major tournament
