Fairs Cup and Intertoto Cup

Well there's a love-in I never expected to see.

Happy for you both.

 

We agree a few times.

If we don't he tends to use mental gymnastics and I boil his old fart piss.

 

So was my dad, he always bores me with stories about it.

It doesn't qualify for me, it's very obscure and most people these days wouldn't know what you're talking about if you cited it, it's a lame one to cling on to, so it doesn't count for me.

It's not as obviously not a proper trophy as the Intertoto, we didn't even win a competition for that, we were just the last remaining team in a competition we still didn't get very far in.

 

It was far superior to the intertoto.

Look at some of the winners

 

You leave the country for 2 weeks and the world goes mental

 

We did have to qualify for the Intertoto though and like the Europa conference was a third tier competition. It was a qualifier for the uefa cup so not a friendly either really.

 

Ha ha yes the actual “cup” was embarrassing.

 

It’s not recognised by uefa as they didn’t organise it. It is however recognised by fifa

 

Fairs cup was second tier like the uefa cup/ Europa league. Intertoto was third tier like Europa conference but still a European trophy

 

Well, I'll take the lead on worthiness of the Fairs Cup from those who were there, like Trev. But I guess ultimately I never really think about it simply because it was so long ago.

Intertoto I don't think about at all because it just seemed so meaningless.

 

Intertoto wasn’t even as prestigious as the Sela cup man (reigning undisputed, undefeated , heavyweight champions of the world)

 

It certainly wasn’t prestigious but did have uefa cup qualification

 

Amazing the club managed to win anything playing in those 'boots'.

 

And how thick are those socks?

Looks like you've stepped into 2 pints of Guinness.

 

I mean if your going to the lengths of adding colour to photoshop you’d at least crop your sisters church shoes out
