Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I would hope we would get past the first 2 rounds, but that's it imo. Got to remember Warburton doesn't like these early season starts and we will not be playing the dregs of Scottish Football this time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will our style of play do in European games? Should we change to accommodate continental environment? All comments welcome Think we should qualify first before we think about anything else.

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Are we going to be eligible due to the accounts over the past few years not meeting the UEFA financial fair play rules? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Can't really see us doing much . Whatever team we have is unlikely to have much European experience, the management team will not have any in managing in Europe and the early start would be against us. I would be astonished if we did anything significant Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris182 6,297 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 2 hours ago, Bears r us said: My honest answer is that at this time I have no idea, but my guess is that since we will have mainly the same team as we have now when the games start it will be a difficult to qualify to say the least. If we qualify then this seems to be the dates: 2017/18 UEFA Europa League calendar 19/06/17: First and second qualifying round draws 29/06/17: First qualifying round, first leg 06/07/17: First qualifying round, second leg 13/07/17: Second qualifying round, first leg 14/07/17: Third qualifying round draw 20/07/17: Second qualifying round, second leg 27/07/17: Third qualifying round, first leg 03/08/17: Third qualifying round, second leg 04/08/17: Play-off draw 17/08/17: Play-off round, first leg 24/08/17: Play-off round, second leg My god that's brutal. The Co-efficient is dog-shit. Just as well the shitebag SPL clubs knew what they were doing when they voted us out the league ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are benefits to European football. Of all the places I've been Latvia has the hottest women. Something to do with so many of the men dying during the war that only the hottest birds got pumped I'm sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a thing posted by UEFA and it showed just how much damage was done to Scottish football when we were demoted - I'll see if I can find it.

NixonRFC 1,333 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 doubt we'll make the group stage unless we have a big upswing in quality, if we make it to the Play-Off's that would be 4 rounds, that should get us a decent wee earner from gate receipts Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if we done a 'Celtic' in the 1st qualifying round, and got beat 1-0, by a shitty team like Lincoln Red Imps of Gibraltar. We'd, more than likely, beat them at home fairly easy, and hopefully do another 'Celtic',and qualify for the group stage, because of some technicalities, or dodgy refereeing decisions.

loyalfollower 1,543 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 We struggle to beat anyone so I struggle to see us winning even 2 rounds. Goals win games and we don't score many Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC55 108,906 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Is this our new club/holding company name? I got attached to sevco. Fucking hell they didn't have great players but they didn't half take a share issue by storm. Rangers international football club seem to be getting better on the park but off field issues make it hard for me to bond with. Hopefully Rangers in Europe 2017 can have us back to Murray international holdings levels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueshoff 11,811 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 When the first game comes around (assuming we qualify) in all likelihood the loan signings will have returned to theirown clubs and we will not have brought in any new players.
