[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 114088"] Ok, this seems to be becoming a general consensus (apart from amongst the welsh). Could someone please explain what is so awful about this tournament? From a Welsh perspective it's a great prospect, something to really look forward to, finiancial benefits, and a breath of fresh air. [/b][/quote] I always use it as my comparison: Imagine taking away the FA Cup in football. Imagine denying the one opportunity the biggest and smallest sides in the land get the face off against one another. That's the basic objection. And once you add to that the fact it isn't straight knockout, has a crap format and adds to an already conjested fixture list, English supporters just don't see the point of it. [/QUOTE]
