Subject: [NT] U27 European Championship

Eesti - Belgïe: 1 - 4

It is nice to win this first EURO U27 tournament!

Congratulation to Eesti !

great game and now the official WC :)

Congratulations.

Congrats Belgie!

My match ended for me on 12', but nice to see injury Prusik -> running 30m 1vs1 with GK Italy and... inury:P and own goal after the tackle DEF it was nice!:P

Fatal match Poland.

By the way, hopefully our Krull will be saved...

Thanks guys :)

I was very disappointed after the WC. This small victory brings some satisfaction but I really think we need a big change on this ME. :)

I'm still disappointed, though 5:0 against Poland makes me feel a bit better. :p

The games look even more random than before...

Congratulations for all countries, and for Belgie, who is the first winner of the U27 European Championship challenge !

Thanks for the tournament and congratulations to Belgie :D

At what point will countries be taken into consideration for the next U27 European championship?


If I'm not clear,

on season X week Y the first 8th ranked european teams will be invited to join the 2nd unofficial U27 European championship.

Is that already decided?

Nothing is decided ... I'm not the new French NT manager.

The U27 was borned to take place after each WC. So the next one will be take place next season.
We can have discussion, if the community is interest, to make rules that will allow more teams toparticipate. Such like qualifications, preliminary turns, etc ....

I think there should be some qualifications to the tourney .... i.e. highest 8 ranked qualify automatically, then next 32 play a knockout qualificication where 8 teams qualify..... i´d love that since it would give our country a chance to qualify....

and i think the day to decide which teams are ranked as what should be the day that NT elections finish.... especially since i can see there where some problems with new/old coach saying yes or no to participate.....

i.e. highest 8 ranked qualify automatically

nice idea but for example Nederland is now on 9 place in ranking because we have good last games.. we were 16 ! It's stupid when we are lookin only by ranking points.

But then tell us what other way.... ;)

so basically you're too weak, even when getting lucky, to get in :)
