Donkey Lover We are the greatest team in Europe True Blue How do you figure that one out? You're not even the best team in England. Donkey Lover We were second, for a few hours. True Blue So how does being the current third best team in the land make you the best team in Europe? Donkey Lover Simple, we finished top of our group in the CL, way ahead of Chelsea (who finished higher than us in our league last year). True Blue I'm not sure that finishing top of your group means quite that much, Lee, erm I mean Donkey Lover. Donkey Lover Oh yes it does. True Blue Probably a good thing you had such an easy set of qualifying games, you kicked off with the 4th best team in Wales, little more than a meaningless friendly. Donkey Lover Yeah, I went, the regular fans couldn't be bothered going. True Blue Wish we hadn't been facing such tough opposition, Villarreal. Donkey Lover They're not a good side, they are really aweful, one or two players being the exception. True Blue But they finished at the top of their group and eliminated Manure from Eurpean competition entirely. Donkey Lover Just because they finished top of their group doesn't make them a special team..... True Blue But you just said Donkey Lover erm, erm, erm, half season tickets, erm, erm, advertising on the radio True Blue Someone ruffle your feathers??
by collecting more points than manure, they effectively eliminated them by being the better team over the length the league ran (you will have difficulty appreciating that concept that one team is better than another because it has collected more points over the lifetime of a league than any other)
