Message Photos: -pjwoods.ch of the president From one year to the next In football, as in other sports, the end of the calendar year is not neces- sarily the best time to take stock, since we follow a different calendar, based on the football seasons, which generally start in summer and end the following spring. This does not, however, stop us from pausing for a moment to reflect on the first half of the season. For the continent’s best national teams, the last few months of 2009 – with all their surprises, successes and disappointments – repre- sented the home straight in the qualifying competition for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. For the clubs, the season began back in June but really took off in August, with the draws in for the group stages of the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League. There is, of course, still a long way to go in both these competitions, but it is already apparent that the format changes have been beneficial. And I am really looking forward to the implementation of another new feature – that of the Champions League final being played on a Saturday – enabling IN THIS ISSUE us to enjoy a whole week of build-up to this spectacular event. Behind the scenes, the first half of the season was also marked by The 13 European teams intense activity and definite progress towards establishing greater financial fair play going to South Africa 03 in our club competitions.
