If I remember correctly we weren't excluded, we just withdrew.

In any case, United's appeal goes throughout the UK, the supporters are probably evenly spread throughout the whole British Isles - but England's appeal is not as widespread.

When Liverpool won the Champion's Cup, that was given a lot of coverage - no problem there, the media have demonstrated they'll give such coverage to any team which does as well as them

But they have also demonstrated that they won't give the same coverage to all home nations - just the ones beginning with 'E' and that's what I object to - my money is as good as yours, why shouldn't my national team get equal coverage? As I've said, when all 4 countries play, why should yours get prominance over mine?
