    Just looking at the Qualifying Rounds for next season, 4 rounds of qualifying to get to group stage and 3 rounds if Cup Winner, that is hard.

    I could see Bohs going close to a Champions League spot next season, with the new qualifying system.

    I think clubs going broke will have more impact on group qualification than an extra 8 spots, to be honest.

    Stupid name, but sure if we get into it, I won't mind.

    Also, there will be a change to co-efficients next year too:

    Also approved was the amendment of the club coefficient system, from the 2009/10 season onwards,
    to take into account results obtained in the qualifying rounds, re-balance the distribution of points to
    better reflect the higher level of difficulty of the UEFA Champions League and reduce the weighting of
    the association coefficient contribution to the club coefficient from 33% to 20%.
