If the Europa Cup hadn't been designed to allow Champions League teams to drop into it, after failure in their own competition, there would probably be no need to start playing the qualifying games, etc, so early in the season.
Bring back the Cup Winners Cup, stop the bail out for Champions League teams and the, maybe, clubs might take cups more seriously.
The only club I feared, in the cup, was Chelsea, so now they're out, I'm seriously peed off. Will be even more so if Sunderland get a plum home draw against the outsiders.
We coulda been contenders!
