Post Line-ups Champions League XX - Round 1 - It's time to give the people what they need, not what they want...

[Haarithan]

A seven team tournament isn't actually complicated either, just increases the number of games from 17 as in the case of a 6-team tournament to 23. Format absolutely remains undisturbed whatsoever.

NM, having 2 teams from one League while having just 1 from the others does actually sound odd, so I might as well revert back to having just 6 teams without last season's champions.

 

[Dipak]

Well I reckon we have a qualifier involving all the second place teams of leagues wherein two teams will qualify for the main tourney, thereby making it an eight team tourney. And yeah, pleeeaaasee can I manage this edition of CL . I really want to.

 

[Haarithan]

Yeah with CG and bcvs not interested, I think you can very well run this. And no need of second placed teams please. This is a 'Champions' League after all.

I wanted it to be of 8 teams so I can place them in groups, thereby simplifying the process of clashes.

 

[Haarithan]

Lol at you thinking this to be the GPL thread.

[BKB1991]

qualification for the runners up should be there imo.

 

[Haarithan]

Well I used to be a fan of having a Europa League style of competition here in PC for the runner-up teams, you know.
Not anymore though.

 

[CG123]

You know my thoughts on the whole runners-up etc, a Champion's League should just have the Champions, second place are the first losers.

 

[Fenil]

Well even if my team lose the final of SLPL, I'd still recommend that Champions League should have Champion teams only.

 

[Dipak]

Well I thought a qualifier b/w the second place teams would spice it up.

 

[Dipak]

Well the CPL is not over. It was the preseason cup. Why don't we have the winner of Prats' MCC instead?

Nope, it doesn't. Atleast not for me, Callum and Great India.

Oh that's right, just saw The Author has a cup prior to the main tournament in his league (was befooled by his thread title tbh ). Right then, including Prats's league sounds good to me, for its about time we had a representative from the Associates as a whole.

Yeah at-least Minor Countries' players can improve here

Good idea but it's carbon copy of CLT20 2011. But they can be included but with less chance to win/make it to the final.
