It was the president of Lens who sent a letter to UEFA where he claimed the exclusion of all the italian clubs (especially Milan) from all the european cups. If that french d!ckhead wouldn't have sent the letter, UEFA wouldn't have called the Emergency Panel and Milan would be partecipating normally in the preliminary round.
nothing to worry we will be ok. with no juve or us that must effect tv figures etc and after all uefa are a buisness! the saving factor for me is that we weren't relegated so an 8 point deduction means that nothing to sinister happened.
