Whatever Happened To Dukla Prague

Well not just Dukla Prague but also many other teams from Europe in my youth,I remember my team Wolves and others playing such sides as the aforementioned Dukla Prague buit also the likes of Carl Zeiss Jena,Academica Coimbra,ADO Den Hague etc etc.

So what is the point of the reminiice well it's just that every year in the current Champions league even in the group stages it's pretty much the same teams year after year,I mean back in the 80's we had Forest v Malmo in a European Cup Final we had Red Star Belgrade winning the dammeed thing but now its the same old crew time after time.

Now i know that the money feeds the same clubs year after year and the Champions League is dominant but I do feel sorry for fans today who because of ther lack of the interest in the Europa League and the demise of the Cup Winners Cup see only the "Big" names of Europe and see them year in and out rather than the variety of foreign opposition that was around in my youth
