    does anyone know what effect this will have on such things as the champions league as all Greek teams are suspended from International competitions. hence are spots in the CL going to open up to replace Olympiakos or whomever was supposed to represent them this year?

    If that's the case I'm sure spurs will be on the phone to UEFA having a moan again.

    And I'm sure we won't, but that hasn't stopped you getting your dig in...:rolleyes:

    Bounty Hunter, UEFA's own CL regulations state that no country can have more than four representatives in the CL, so I doubt England, Spain or Italy will get any extra spots. My guess is that either the Greek places will be awarded to another association based on coefficients, or that they won't be replaced and UEFA will just adjust the qualifying rounds to arrive @ 32 teams for the group stage. I'm inclined to believe option 2, its less controversial.
