Can't see why opponents wouldn't agree to having the 2nd leg at their place, definite advantage for them.

No point is us playing our home leg at 5pm on a Tuesday - crowd would be about 15,000. We did unbelievably well last season to get 28,000 for Dynamo Kiev for a 6pm KO during a run of about 7 home games in 3 weeks - might aswell have pitched tents outside Eastlands, was there that often,

From a Premier League point of view, 5pm on a Tuesday gives us plenty of time to prepare for the weekend so I don't care personally & if I can't go, I don't care about that either.

Why would anyone have a rule whereby the previous PL champions get priority over kick off time ? Exactly what the fuck has any previous record in any competition got to do with the kick off time ? It's a purely financial disadvantage from less gate & tv revenue not a sporting disadvantage. Why effectively give a team more money for something they did last season ?

It's just another example of UEFA thinking 'hmm, if we get one of our elite sides drop out of the Champion's Lg, ok we can put them in the Europa, ok we can seed them top try to help them stay in the competition, at least it gives them some kind of TV money, but what if they have to play at 5pm, their gates will be down & people will be at work when they appear on tv, what else can we do to help them get as much revenue as possible ? '

UEFA fucking stink.
