@15thdimensional@JohnJamesaexh@SqualoRegen@MrBlackFootball My club (Derry City) were not good enough to win that type of competition or any competition in Europe for that matter.
It doesn’t exist anymore because of the induction of lower European competitions like the Europa League, and most recently the Conference League. Still exists.
@SqualoRegen@15thdimensional@JohnJamesaexh@MrBlackFootball Of people that are too young to commemorate it.
Sure it’s not as prestigious as the Champions League, but to sit there and say that it means absolutely nothing is an insult to domestic competitions in Europe.
@15thdimensional@JohnJamesaexh@SqualoRegen@MrBlackFootball Don’t blame the fact you’re too young to remember cup competitions. It is a UEFA recognised competition so calling it a ‘nothing trophy’ is kinda insulting to anyone who wins silverware in the past.
@Lea_EFC Apparently you can now bottle games you were never winning to begin with. Either that or people just have their heads so far up Arsenal’s arse. 😂
@Lonethug_CFC@MrBlackFootball@ryangooner25 Insulting Arsenal fans when I’m not even one (Derry City), no wonder Arsenal is so over-hated.
On its own sure you can argue winning EL is better because of Europe next season. However a running argument last season was that Spurs had a more successful season.
@Lonethug_CFC@MrBlackFootball@ryangooner25 The way you’re wording it’s as if it’s runner up vs winner for the same competition. If you look at the revenue statistics, it’s significantly greater for a club who finishes runner up in the CL final than winning the EL.
@Sir_Ivans@MrBlackFootball I mean I would imagine it doesn’t affect them anymore because it’s more repetitive than anything.
And it is getting to the stage where you are diminishing the credibility of the CL as a whole.
@Lonethug_CFC@MrBlackFootball@ryangooner25 Financially speaking yeah it is seismically more important. Research the revenue a club generates between the 2.
And there’s no way you’re comparing a CL final to a CWC final. They are significantly different in importance for a club.
@Mark20_08@MrBlackFootball@ryangooner25 I am not talking about decoration.
I’m talking about class. Finishing runner up in a CL final matters a lot more to a club than winning a EL.
@Lonethug_CFC@MrBlackFootball@ryangooner25 That’s not the argument being shown here is it? European ‘trophies’ are in talk here, and it’s just common sense. Barcelona 06, nobody was beating that team. Same with this PSG team.
