So... should we represent Europe at the World Club Championship competion in December if they don't let us defend our KINGS OF EUROPE title?

Or... should we tell them to shove it where the sun don't shine?

Your views please? Errr is this a "Poll" item

I don't think we gain a lot from the world club championship, so sure.

Tell 'em to "Fu'ck Off" why fly all the way to Japan just to give the gravy slurping b'stards another excuse for a free jolly boys outing . :angry:

Would rather give our lads a couple of days peace ,quiet and a bit of a rest.

All I can say is we get £15Million just for turning up, can we really afford to lose that amount of money.

I say go and win it and make UEFA look like even bigger Idiots if they don't let us back in. Not only will the European Champions not be in the CL but also the WORLD CLUB CHAMPIONS

We've never won the world championship. I don't think any English team has so I'd fancy it.

Is there any suggestion of having a world cup again like they had a few years ago when Manu and Real Madrid went? I'd fancy that too.

i'd be tempted to tell them to stick it...but i'm confident that we will be in the champions league...Ueffa have been back tracking the last few days saying that "something must be done to keep the Europen champions in the comp"

The only thing is, if we go against their wishes it could prove costly in the future. Well, I don't know if they could do this or not, but they could possibly refuse to allow to compete in any UEFA competition's if we don't go.

Hang on a minute , 15 million just for turnung up ? so if we go and loose the semi,s we still get 15 million for 90 minutes work just before the christmas games ? simple solution to it really , play the reserve squad pocket the money and scarper !!

Its just like that one.One club from every continent and the winner gets to call themselves champions of the universe(or something like that) plus a load of cash.We`d be fools to turn it down because i can assure you Milan will be only too happy to take our place.

A UEFA executive committee member believes it is too late to change the rules to accommodate holders Liverpool into next season's Champions League.

Pressure has increased on UEFA in the past week to include the Reds in next season's competition following their stunning penalty shoot-out triumph over AC Milan.

The elite European clubs group, the G14, have added their voice to the clamour while Football Association chairman Geoff Thompson, who is also a UEFA vice-president, has continued lobbying for there to be five English clubs in the Champions League so the Reds can defend their crown.

Liverpool will have to wait for another three weeks before the issue is resolved by UEFA's 15-man executive committee at their meeting in Manchester on June 17.

UEFA president Lennart Johansson is understood to be broadly supportive, and his influence is extremely important though not necessarily decisive.

However, Dr Joseph Mifsud, who has been on the committee since 1994, is a dissenting voice and is unequivocal in his belief the current regulations should be adhered to, which would result in the exclusion of the newly-crowned champions.

Mifsud, who is also the president of the Malta FA, told BBC Radio 5 Live: 'I believe we should follow the rules.

'If the rules permit it it is ok, if the rules do not permit it, no.

'I believe that while the English FA can do something in this regard, I believe as the rules stand at present at UEFA we cannot do anything - unless of course the regulations are changed.

'But I don't agree regulations can be changed midway through the season.

'As far as I can see it is too late.'
