		<description>Surely this should be a discussion about consitent all round, month on month, spectacular form, and not lucking it when it counts; resulting in whining from disapointed fans? I promise to light a candle for you and your team next season.</description>

		<description>You both think you&#039;re funny but you&#039;re not! You clearly are not thinking straight and I suggest that &#039;green&#039; is the new &#039;red&#039; (MU)and &#039;blue&#039; (Chelsea)</description>

		<description>Keith,

I think you are right. The rules should most definitely be broken for Liverpool. In fact, they are such a deserving case, I think Chelsea should also forfeit the Premiership Title out of deference and the teams who stood between the top place and Liverpool should part like the Red Sea and allow Liverpool to take their rightful place at the top of the table. I know there is no law that would make that possible, but hey...it&#039;s Liverpool - so that&#039;s OK!

lol

		<description>Keith,

Clearly the solution is simple, and there is precedent.  FIFA have left it up to English FA by saying that only four English teams can play in UEFA.  This means that Everton must forgo their place in next season&#039;s competition.  As you say, &quot;clearly&quot; we wouldn&#039;t want the defending champions to not be in the competition.

I suggest it will be a simple matter of contacting the chairman of Everton FC (see website here: http://www.evertonfc.com/) as well as the chairman of the Everton fans club (email him: ablue@evertonfc.com), simply pointing this out to them, and I am sure that they will do the right thing and step aside for Liverpool.  I cannot see why rational logic would not prevail.

:-)

On this one, Keith, I think you might alone...</description>
