I was so going to join until I was asked which club I support. Which is Leeds United. Who have won in Europe in the past. Who are not on the list. Meaning I can't complete my registration.

I think I will be having words. Oh yes indeed.

I have similar problems here. Well, my team never won a cup in Europe (though they have won some matches). Worst thing is, for some reason ADO Den Haag is *in* the list. They ended up lower than my team this year. And Feyenoord is not in the list either. Feyenoord ffs. Also former cup winners.

Boycot.

Leeds are still in the Championship...so not in the EPL...but given I was offered the choice of -

Spurts - slightly annoying fans and a well dodgy club

Citeh - bought for success...shame. I respect the citeh fans who packed Main Road when they were in the lower division for those years...

Arsenal - If I hear Wenger say 'I didn't see the foul' again I'm gonna slap him upside the head.

Chelsea - Fa Cup 1971. Nuff said.

Dirty Mancs - well coz they are dirty Mancs

So what is a poor Leeds fan to do?

Write to Mr Platani

I was given the choice of Ajax, AZ, PSV, Twente and ADO Den Haag. None of those are my clubs, though I do like PSV a bit. But no NAC Breda => no me.

Clubs? You support more than one club? I can't do that.

Any way...is Den Haag less obscure (in Europe) than Breda?

I really am not impressed with this (the actions of UEFA that is).

[The Icemark]

I support three clubs; Tottenham (because I just always have), Stevenage (Because I live in this shithole) and Copenhagen (Because thats where I was born)

A bit weird, huh?

Den Haag is slightly more obscure, but I think they played last season while Breda didn't.

And I only support NAC Breda. Though I'm sympathetic of some others.

Can't wait for the European Championships this week. C'mon Ireland!

yeah I thought that was the case...I certainly recognize the name NAC Breda more than ADO Den Haag...

yeah sympathy for other teams....sure...like Southampton when Le Tiss played there. Actually now there is a great player....could have made huge big money moves to Spurs or Chelsea...and never did. Spent his entire time with the Saints. Total respect for that man...not withstanding his utterly incomprehensible goals.

[Homelands our]

Obscure clubs then
Lakena United ok not in Europe from Tuvalu but come on beat that!

The Gunners.

I mean the soccer club in Breda that is called the gunners

Or aren't we allowed to point out amateur clubs?

[Cosmopoles]

Any chance the league admin can remove the Serrland team that is in there now? I stupidly forgot to write down the email address and now I can't get back into it.

I think I removed the right one, let me know if its wrong and I'll reinstate it.

Ireland winning Euro = new Zealand winning the World Cup

Hey, NZ didn't lose any match on the last world cup. Not even Spain managed that.

That's what they used to say about Greece or Denmark.

If I recall correctly, they were even entertaining to watch. I seem to recall them playing a really exciting one against Italy.

Sweden actually has a pretty decent footballing history.

As does Denmark, come to think of it. Although Denmark's glory days kind of predate WWI...

Greece, well, yeah, that was kind of out of nowhere.

Update: Hungary 0-0 Ireland

Yeah they are going to win the Euro

[Nazis in Space]

And if not, Trappatoni gets to have another rage attack in front of the press.

Not really. Ireland are 18th in the FIFA World Rankings, New Zealand are 130th.

[Utopia FTW]

Not really. Ireland are 18th in the FIFA World Rankings, New Zealand are 130th.

But the fact still is they both have zero chance.

I saw that, I cannot remember it. They play at a crazy hour here.

Ah, but we didn't win any either.

They're in the tournament, that means they have a chance.

See: Greece, 2004. Denmark, 1992.

[Why Try]

Are you sure they're not in Europe? I mean I'd neve heard of them before, but looking at their kit I think I've seen them pay champions league football a few times

Tis true, but they don't play that (ugly but efficient )defensive football that Italians perfected and Greeks play so well. Nor are they hosts or underrated as the Danes were. But if they take a page from both this two they could surprise a few.
