Leeds are **** at the moment, m8. Maybe better than Lyon and Leverkusen, but outclassed heavily by Dortmund and PSG.
Also, Dortmund won the CL in '96, the World Cup (or whatever it's called) the year after that. PSG have an impresive team, Leverkusen are pathetic this year, Lyon are a typical French team.
Dortmund has good chances of making it to the Quarter Finals (they will if they beat Real at home IMO) and are doing well in their league as well. Dortmund is a force to be reckoned with again.
To line their own pockets without a care for anyone else

Thats about the jist of it
Hehe, "ourmission" even the url is evangelistic
I'm now imagining Alex Ferguson and Fabio Capello in white suits with soverign rings trying to heel young blind boys and asking us to pledge money...

As a consequence, G-14, based on its legitimacy of being "the voice of the clubs", has a clear objective: to give club football a fair contributory role in the large-scale decisions that will make the football of tomorrow while guaranteeing:
- The prosperity and continuity of the clubs as key actors of football
- The standard quality of the game itself (excitement, spectacle, etc.)
- The continuity of the sport and its values
Our actions
To liaise between its objectives, its context and its fundamental involvement, G-14 must:
- identify the consensual voice on each level
- propose, dialogue, and endeavour involved in the decision-making process
- ensure that it achieves the best possible level of constructive dialogue and relationship with the overall governing bodies (inside and outside of football)
- use as many alternative diplomatic or strategic actions as possible to delay the final recourse, which is to openly deal with whoever or whatever needs to be dealt with
- be leaders: to keep on being innovative and pioneering

Outclassed heavily?
Not a chance.
How did Dortmund win the World Cup then, pray tell?
So Leeds are **** but are better than Leverkusen (who, before selling their top players made a steal on the CL, just as Leeds did)? Really? I'd be interested to see your working out on that.
