By the way. From who did you receive these dates? I don't see anything yet on the site of the UEFA.

If this were correct, and I don't doubt about the information of Bert, the intertoto cup should keep the same format.

I got the info from a single source that proved to be reliable in the past. I don't know all the details, but if I understood well, the dates come from some kind of UEFA 2005 diary. I suppose that this "diary" has been sent by UEFA to the national associations and/or clubs.

If you take last years(June-Dec 2004) dates and substract 1, you get exactly this list: Absolutely nill changes compared to last year.
I hardly can believe this would be true. Maybe it's the eintention, but England and other big countries will come and say that they have friendlies or cup-matches planned, so it might change!

They had the friendly's and Cup matches also this year, so no need for changes.
This season all English clubs were free on the 4th matchday of the UEFA-cup groupstage, so the same can be done for next year.


By the way, both English teams still in the UEFA-cup were already eliminated in the League Cup, so there was no need for this rule.

I just can't understand why days 5 and 6 os UCL group phase and days 4 and 5 of Uefa Cup are scheduled in four different weeks.

I guess the reason is that in this way the match days 4 and 5 of UC can be split on 2 days (wednesday / thursday). Means more TV coverage etc.

So these are the remaining dates according to the DFB-site:

CL round 2: 21/22 February & 7/8 March
CL QF: 28/29 March & 4/5 April
CL SF: 18/19 April & 25/26 April
CL final: 17 May

UEFA-cup round 3: 15/16 February & 23 February
UEFA-cup round 4: 9 March & 15/16 March
UEFA-cup QF: 30 March & 6 April
UEFA-cup SF: 20 April & 27 April
UEFA-cup final: 10 May

So the only changes compared to this season are that the QF's, SF's and finals are 1 week earlier than this season.

its earlier most like ly due to WC 06
i head FIFA made a rule saying they wanted all club competitions to be done by May 14
wouldnt that affect the final being on May 17?

They made an exception for the CL-final, I read somewhere earlier.

Champions League final is the only match for which exception was made.
