    UEFA Badge of Distinction. They brought that in a few years ago for clubs that have won 5 or more European Cups or 3 times in a row.

    Proudly displayed in European competition on the shirt sleeves of Ajax, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Madrid and Milan.

    Darn Richmond, I never even pointed that one out. Their ALL after you man. *Grins super big*

    Hail.
    Badges are nice but I like to hold up a new trophy every once in awhile

    My buddy from Germany is actually a Bayern Munich supporter and over the last few years made me watch them. They became my "German" team. My bud and I are waiting for the day Man Utd and Munich clash in a Cup final. Gonna be a bad day for someone. Now as far as today goes I'm confident Utd can win but I wouldn't be surprised if we lose either. City shouldn't be in a position to win the league but Utd gave them hope and they might pay the price.

    Hehe... Well, I hope to make it over the pond to see a game at Goodison at some point. Hopefully sooner rather then later. Then I can experience it more first hand. :-D

    So if a team were to win 5 now would they get the badge in addition to keeping the trophy? Or only the badge? Would be kind of lame if that was a substitute for keeping a trophy.

    Also, do wins before it became the Champions League that it is today count? As much as I have watched it, I have never delved into the intricacies of it, seeing how Everton hasnt played in it for awhile.

    BTW, I hope we finish above you in the league table at least. Odds are looking good. :-P

    The odds are looking great for one of those occasions for Everton to finish above L'pool given our woeful league form.

    We'll just have to console ourselves with (hopefully) two trophy's come Saturday evening,

    And yeah, clubs still get to keep the European Cup if they win it 5 times. (Or 3 straight years. Presumably the same with the Uefa Cup/ Europa Lge.). Hopefully Munich will do just that in a couple of weeks.

    I wonder if Madrid would of been able to keep another one if they had made it 10 this year?

    Hail.

    *Edit* Liverpool's first 4 wins in the competition where in the 'old' European Cup, and the 5th was in the 'Champions League.' So yeah, both count, as will Bayern's first three in the 'old' competition if they do indeed win a 5th in a few weeks.

    Like the Premier League/ old First Division Championship. Same competition, however you dress it up.

    Not surprised. With all the corners I knew they would get one. Utd played like crap the first half but that's why we play two halves. Winning is nice but a draw would be find.

    barely apparently. We might need to redefine it after that goal.

    LONG way to go yet. City will need more than one to win this.

    I think Alex Ferguson could have headed that ball away. However, yeah its gonna be long game. We've only had two games this year where we didn't score a goal. All I know is Utd better make sure the next goal is theirs or the lights may go out on their season.

    Utd need to change this more than just Wellbeck and start getting wide and behind City. This is so easy to defend it's unreal.
