I know its a little early to start talking about the UEFA Champions League next season but todays news has tempted me into starting this thread nice and early.

For those who haven't heard it yet. Portuguese champions FC Porto have been banned from the 2008/09 Champions League after being found guilty of bribing referee's in 2003/04. The Portuguese Football Association had already deducted them 6 points from their 2007/08 league campaign but it wasn't enough to prevent Porto from winning the title.

UEFA though have decided that despite Porto winning the 2007/08 Portuguese Title that they will not be allowed to enter the following seasons champions league due to these bribing charges.

so porto can't play the CL but Milan two years ago was allowed to play even though they found guilty together with several other teams . Both (Porto-Milan) had enough points to qualify even after taking points away but Milan was still allowed to play. Porto just don't have the right chairman to scare off the Uefa bosses...

Well they do generally say that the big clubs get all the decisions when it comes to the governing bodies, looks like Porto isnt a big enough club. But I do agree, if AC Milan were allowed in then Porto should be.

I have read that Porto will be appealing so this decision is not set in stone. And if the appeals made by the 4 italian clubs a few years ago are anything to go by they might well get back in.

The original sanctions handed out to the 4 italian clubs found guilty of match fixing were...

Juventus - Stripped of the 2004/05 and 2005/06 titles, Bared from the Champions League, Relegated to Serie B, Begin the season on -30.
Fiorentina - Relegated to Serie B, Begin the season on -12, Bared from Champions League
Lazio - Relegated to Serie B, Begin the season on -7, Bared from UEFA Cup
AC Milan - Begin the Serie A season on -15, Bared from the Champions League

Those were the original sanctions placed on the teams, this is what actually happened after all their appealing...

Juventus - Stripped of the 04/05 and 05/06 titles, bared from the champions league, relegated to Serie B, begin the season on -9 (after two appeals)
Fiorentina - Begin the Serie A season on -15, Bared from the Champions League
Lazio - Begin the Serie A season on -3, Bared from UEFA Cup
AC Milan - Begin Serie A on -8, Made to enter the 3rd Qualification stage of the Champions League

Neither did Marseille.

BTW, who was the Porto manager in 03/04, he's so shy and quiet that I just can't remember.

Neither Tapie or the Porto Chairman will have a impact like Berlusconi

About José , i don't think he have to be mentioned in this , it's not the coach who buy referees

Being a FC Porto supporter, I can not accept other decision but the appeal to change UEFA decision, as far as we understand this is nothing but a political decision, and a setting of an future example and what makes even worse to take! :(
The fact is that we are still very small and insignificant in the uEFA world. :evil:

The word is that Porto have a very good chance to win the appeal, and to play Champions League football.
A team that wins the championship with a 20 point lead, is worthy of respect.
It is only good news for the other teams, because instead of pORTO they would play against a mediocre team that finished the league sooooooooooooooo far behind!!! :lol:

Ronaldo 'wants to play at Madrid'

Cristiano Ronaldo's future at Manchester United has taken a new twist after the winger was reported as saying he would like to play for Real Madrid.
Real have been tracking Ronaldo, 23, despite being warned off by United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
"I'd like to play for Real Madrid but only if it's true they are ready to pay what Manchester United ask of them," he told respected Brazilian website Terra.
