And if we win, does that mean we are in the ECL? How many QRs is there? it's a weird system mate where runnersup in the league actually benefit more than champions in situations where both have to qualify - why? fuck knows but lose either 3rd qualifier or playoff and its europa league group stage next season OzzieBear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic 4,654 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Seen this elsewhere. All the teams in bold have qualifiers so some might not make it, but this is what the pots could look like. If Liverpool win the champs league, they'd swap with Ajax. If Benfica somehow fail to qualify we'd be in pot 3. Could be some unreal groups for us if we get there.

Chances are much higher having a really long run from the Europa League. Supersonic 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,313 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 If we somehow managed to get into the CL groups we would probably take a couple of skelpings but I would like to think we could give anybody a game at Ibrox especially if the atmosphere is anything like the knockout games this season.

the cry was no 3,012 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 3 hours ago, Brackley said: So celtic are the lowest ranked team in the tournament. 😂 Annoyingly though, from a money perspective their 10 year coefficient is likely to be about 7th lowest netting them 7x 1,15m euros - about £7m. If we qualify we're likely to be bottom or 2nd bottom netting £1m or £2m. They also wouldn't have been seeded in the qualifiers and, given their European form, would have been highly unlikely to qualify Fucking infuriating ElBufalo20 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MarzM 1,238 Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 We need to have a good pre-season to get ready. Last seasons was a clusterfuck with folk coming back at different times. Alfie having extra time off etc. We really need to hit the ground running. plymouthranger, graeme_4, barrymorrison1 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
