The whole point of leaving the EU is that these foreigners can no longer dictate to us what we can and cant do I.m pretty sure there will be any number of Tory Brexit MP.s who will be more than happy to tell them where to go if they tried to.

I agree with your sentiment, Northernsoul, but the EU and UEFA are two different organisations.
The latter is the Union of European Football Associations, and I believe our four nations’ FAs are fully paid-up and compliant members.
It would require something like the Premier League to completely break away from any such organisations and set up its own competitions as rivals to the European Championships and Europa (Consolation) Cup to ignore UEFA rules.
Paradoxically, the most likely way that might happen would be if a Euro (or even Global) Super League was formed for the big boys to play in (and never get relegated from!).
