Joanne,
It is all still up in the air. I see no problem in having a group that has us as one extra team, but other teams may baulk at having to play all the extra games. I see no reason not to allow the shadows (Everton) to continue to the competition as they deserve what they achieved.
I think that UEFA will allow us in but have to work the fairest way, after all they want us to compete in the World Club games to line their own pockets so they will have to give something in return.
Walk On
