Paulo2576 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I know UEFA have there own plans afoot that I haven't really paid much attention to yet, but the link below is an interesting article on re-shaping qualification for tournaments. I started off shaking my head, but certainly got me thinking the more I read it http://www.msn.com/en-gb/sport/football/what-is-holding-back-international-football-and-how-do-we-fix-it/ar-AAsTj56?li=AA572I&ocid=ientp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrisandmoo Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Sounds like a perfect format for sky and English tv consumers. Written by somebody obsessed with the EPL, who sees international break as a distraction. Did paddy power publish this? Not saying we can’t make it better, but I look forward to every international break. So disagree with the basis of everything that is said to be honest.

Morrisandmoo Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 And no way I committ to spending the whole of June attending qualifiers. So I’d go from a supporter to a tv consumer. Pish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrisandmoo Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Just move the games back to Sat. Or at least Thu-Sat as a compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo2576 Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 Theres holes all over it for sure and indeed written by someone who openly admits internationals are an inconvenience, you just wonder though that something along those lines might be appealing to clubs. The game is unfortunately being more and more dictated by the super clubs, I think they day will come when they have their say on international football.

DaveyDenoon Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Never read so much guff in all my days. Lets completely revamp international football because England are fed up of playing Slovenia? How about revamping international football to ensure it is given the top status ahead of club football that it deserves. The pinnacle of the game.
