Panathinaikos join the seeded teams in our round. That gives us PANO, Kyiv and Fenerbahçe and either Copenhagen or Brugge depending on results on Wednesday.

I'm trying to figure that out. Wiki says overall goal difference but Bert Kassies has them ranked as Seeded in the Champions Route. While the Romanian League website has them as Champions as well

Cluj are already Champions.

The Seeded ball is drawn. Then the unseeded ball is drawn. They are then both put into another pot, shaking about and then drawn again. First one out is at home - subject to change due to other teams and fixtures.

3pm KO. Denmark. Second last game of the season. FC Nords currently sit 1 point behind FCK. Brondby v FC Nordsjaelland FC Midtjylland v FC Copenhagen 6pm KO. Greece. Last game of the season. AEK currently 1 point behind Panathinaikos. Panathinaikos v AEK Athens.

I remember watching that game on SkySports (might have been Setanta). But anyway, the commentator just before he smashed that one into the top bag came out with a line that basically said Fortune was an absolute diddy.... the rest is history Jam20, the game against Falkirk I believe you are thinking of. It ended 5-0 (a week after Falkirk drew 0-0 playing the same team and tactics).

Best Scenario I can think of right now for the above is Bayern win tonight AEK Athens wins tomorrow Copenhagen win the league This would give a seeded pot of Sporting Braga Dynamo Kyiv Spartak Moscow Fenerbahce Club Brugge Swap Brugge with Copenhagen if Copenhagen come runner up. Swap Brugge with PANO if PANO beat AEK tomorrow. Swap Brugge and Fenerbahce with PANO and Copenhagen if PANO win and Copenhagen come second. In other words there will always be either a Greek team or a Turkish team in the seeded pot. Also why did I just do that when Steelboy worked it all out

Looking at the league tables still to complete - and how they stand now. If Chelsea win the Champions League then the following should be seeded Dynamo Kyiv Fenerbahce** Panothanikos* Club Brugge** Teams that could come runner up in their league that could change this are AEK Athens (Greece) and FC Copenhagan (Denmark). *Not confirmed qualifier. ** May not be seeded if Bayern win

McFadden would snub Celtic for any Championship or Premiership team. This is a fact. You could even count on the League 1 Playoff Winner in that list of teams he would jump at signing for before Celtic.... You have also been stating your stance for the last nine years. Time for you to move on as much as those who say (more in hope/joke that actual fact - unlike you) he is joining us....

Blackpool is a good call tbf And again for what, seems like the 100th Transfer Window, McFadden will not be signing for Celtic

Celtic are playing a smart game. They will be the last to vote. If the vote is in favour of letting a NewCo in then all they will do is vote against it to safe face... If it is heading to against, again they will vote no as nothing to lose, but everything to gain. Celtic will be hoping for the first scenario though!

Since we all love a former player link....

Round placing is decided by National Co-eff not club. And Portugal and Russia are the highest in this rond

Any youtube videos of his best moments (Own goals included?)

Fenerbahçe join Brugge and Feyenoord in Seeding Limbo. Chances are they will be seeded though.

If Chelsea win then 4th in England won't qualify for the Champions League. This leaves 2 spots (winner from third and 4th in England) in the Playoff Round. This will be taken by Portugal and Russia from Third Qualification. If Bayern Win, then as Bayern have already qualified for the Group Stages for the Champions League as Runner Up in Germany this leaves a Champions Path open for the Groups Stages. I believe Belgium is one of the Nations that will benefit here.

Dynamo Kyiv of Ukraine and Club Brugge of Belgium have qualified for the 3rd Qualification Round (unseeded < 12.480, seeded > 41.615) Unknown coef. ------------------------ --- ---------------- CL2 Tur 38.115 - 41.615 Club Brugge Bel 35.480 Feyenoord Ned 12.603 CL2 Rus 9.566 - 80.566 CL2 Rom 7.764 - 26.764 CL2 Gre 7.420 - 50.920 CL2 Den 6.505 - 46.505 Seeded teams coef.

Am I the only one hoping for PAOK rather than anyone else - especially from Greece? As it being Thessaloniki I probably could make it an actual family holiday (if second leg away)!

Lose in 3rd Qual - Enter Europa League Playoff Get through 3rd but lose in Champions League Playoff - Enter Europa League Group Stages

The Paragraph you quoted is missing a key sentence... And actually St Johnstone couldn't afford that squad. They made a loss that season... but agains that is business not sport.

WTF has that got to do with Sporting Integrity! Sporting Integrity is about the fair competativeness of a sport. And well Motherwell, Dundee, Livingston, Gretna, Airdionians, Third Lanark, Rangers and many others have paid the sporting price of paying what they could not afford. Although what we did or any of those other clubs did doesn't even come close to what Rangers did in scope. Anyway Administration is all about Business Integrity. The Sporting Integrity is the SPL, where they have admitted (although BSkyB, ESPN, BBC, and everytother Sponsor have not confirmed anything) that they cannot punish Rangers be removal from the SPL, for everything but Sporting reasons. They have came out and said they must have four SPL Old Firm games (again something no one in the media have dared to admit yet), although there is a real possibility of there only being 3 next season if the SFA stick to their guns as apply the 12 month transfer embargo (which I'm hoping going on precident UEFA will force them to) as Rangers could end in the bottom six. It has also been admitted that NewCo, NewShare, The Non-Liqudated Rangers, whatever you want to cvall them could probably be unable to be punished further by the SPL (after they have their prize money taken from them). Only the SFA (Double Contracts) and UEFA (for oweing more to member clubs than most SPL clubs earn in a year) although if anyother club is caught now doing this or even trying what they are they could be written to the history of the Scottish Game.

Same here. Looking up the Francisco de Sá Carneiro airport (the Airport of Braga) there seems to be no direct flights from Scotland but there is from London or Liverpool (seasonal). PANO, AEK and Atromitos are all Athenian clubs, while PAOK is Thessaloniki - both well serviced from Scotland/UK.

No one would give a fuck if Rangers are in the SPL and still in Administration. If you believe this whole Share Transfer, NewCo whatever is any different from any other previous Liquidation then you're a fool. The only reason Rangers are doing this (or thinking of doing this) is because they know with the Assets they have they have no chance whatsoever agreeing a CVA with their Administration Pot.

Which would also read as "Sporting integrity means fuck all to Motherwell FC so we need to check how much money it will cost....."

It is UEFA Co-efficient that is used.
