UEFA Champions League Pool 2008/2009

[bspsoccer]

Here we go again for the new season:
I would also like to thank all those who participated in this thread last year and hope will have them again and hopefully more.

Rank all teams from 1 to 32. 1 being the lowest and 32 being the highest (team winning the whole thing). Accumulate points throughout the season base on how you rank your teams and round value. Whoever has the most points at the end of Champions League season, wins!

Deadline: (one day before 1st game starts)

Scoring System: Each Round will increase in value.

Group Stage = 1 pt for a win 0.5 pt for a draw

Bonus points (3 points) for teams advanced to the Round of 16.

Knockout Round:
Sweet 16 = 5 pts
quarterfinal = 7 pts
Semi-final = 9 pts
Final 11 pts

For example: If you rank Lyon number 32, they beat Bayern Munchen during Group Stage 1 you earned 32 pts (1 * 32). So on with all your teams.

I'll give periodic update throughout the Champions League season here on this board.

Thanks for playing and good luck.

How can FC Basel 1893 and Shakhtar Donetsk be in the same quarter?

How can FC Basel 1893 and Shakhtar Donetsk be in the same quarter?

There are no rules about how you order them 1-32.

[goliath74]

There are no rules about how you order them 1-32.

I am not talking about the rules, I was wondering about common sense.
