Indeed - especially with the home/away bit being decided behind closed doors. Unlikely, I think, but just suppose we got paired with the Tims tonight, then found out on Monday that it would be at the Brendanbeau. No chance of that being rigged, is there......

Haha! 8 group winners & 4 best runners up get joined by the 4 Euro entrants to make a last 16 which is straight knockout, as we've had til now. Draws in the section phase will be followed by a penalty shoot out (no ET), winner of which gets an extra point! Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were never getting banned, c'mon. I heard from somewhere it's a 100k fine they are getting but from a dubious source. Slap on the wrists, if true.

mclovin9091 1,388 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 So League cup: 4 games between 16th July and 31st. PLUS Europa League: 2 games for the 2nd qualifing round (QR) on 14 July and 21 July 2016. Then a third game for the 1st leg of the 3rd QR on the 28th July OR Champions League: 2nd QR, first leg 12 or 13 July, 2nd QR, second leg 19 or 20 July then 3rd QR, first leg 26 or 27 July.  Am i missing a trick here or is the SFA trying to fuck up any Scottish teams chances of staying in European competition? I know we dont care about any other teams but what (if we had won the cup) or next year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
