Posted January 13, 2006 How many Championship sides have got to the UEFA cup final recently? How many Championship sides have beaten Barcalona over 2 legs? How many Championship sides have had the chance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 13, 2006 One that I can remember recently. It's not about who got the chance, not eam gets the chance, they earn it. SO the reason championship sides dont get there is becuause they are not good enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Incase you havent noticed its harder for championship sides to earn it because they have to go up against teams better than you do to get there. The only reason you earn it is because there is little competition in the SPL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea because the carling cup is so difficult with any bigger teams playing not only reserved teams but not really giving a shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Man United definatley played a reserve team against Blackburn: Man Utd: Van der Sar, Neville, Ferdinand, Brown, Silvestre, Ronaldo, Fletcher (O'Shea 85), Smith, Giggs, Rooney, Saha (van Nistelrooy 82). and besides how many championship sides lost to Clyde *runs* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Besides at the end of the day does it matter that Scottish clubs couldnt make it in the English leagues because they will probably nver be in the same domestic leagues.
