Inigo 32,524 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 We should remember that the winners of the Europa League get access to the Champions League. It's another avenue into the CL, so it's very important to us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-ClaudeDarcheville 181 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Incidentally, as Scotland have moved up to 19th this year (mainly it has to be said on the back of Celtic and Aberdeen with 3 wins apiece, and 9 wins and 3 draws overall) and 23rd on the 5-year ranking, our CW will start in ELQ2 as of right in 2018/19 but our Champions will play in CLQ1 under the new format.

Probably wouldn't rate our chances much better than 50% with this current squad but obviously need to see who comes in Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought we would have been in it sooner. Same - all this "we didn't even know if we'd have a club to support again" is birthday card pish cunts that drink in the Louden on match day hit out with there was never any danger imo but the real danger was how long to recover etc not if.

Brackley Bluenose 4,478 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I think being in that very first round will actually benefit us, at least it gives us a chance to get competitive game time under our belt before maybe facing someone half decent. Going straight in and playing some Scandinavian team who are halfway through their season could really be a banana skin, if it isn't already.
