Toxteth O'Grady Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 7 hours ago, A Well Fan said: I wondered how long that would take. You can't just say that. It doesn't work that way. They dropped down from the Champions League qualifiers and then played clubs from Andorra, Moldova and Faroe Islands. Some of the clubs in that route are nowhere near the level of the clubs in the other route. Fair enough, I stand corrected. I only saw the headline news and wasn't aware of their qualifying path.

Welldaft Mk1 Posted October 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 If you add the coefficient points of all 3 clubs it comes to 16. Good luck to Dundalk. The Moldovan mob were seeded higher but to get a Faroes team in the play off round is taking the piss a little when others are playing Spurs, AC Milan etc. I am glad we were in Europe and hope to be again soon. But that does not change my mind that UEFA it is one of the most self serving organisations on planet earth. Basically it all about how we maximise revenue and literally NOTHING to do with sporting integrity. I have never agreed with seedlings in cup competitions but the fact UEFA seed every round up to the group stages is ridiculous. And as mentioned to give Champions League losers multiple chances and an easier path. Taking the piss at this point...... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its even applied after the CL group stages ffs, a UEFA carve up to pander to the top teams and TV companies. If that nonsense stopped there would be more places available for the EL, oh and while I am on my rant the CL should be for champions only or change the name. Totally agree Allan. Also, each country has only have one league champion per year, so they should only be one entrant per country for the Champions League. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C&A not the shop Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 3-1 win for Hapoel Beer Sheva tonight against Slavia Prague. I'm beginning to think they might be a not bad side..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daver Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 The stats on the BBC website for that game are something else. Hapoel only had 31% possession and had 4 shots to Slavia's 18. Maybe it was their game plan or they just were very lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 I see it's been confirmed that Scotland has 5 teams in UEFA competitions next season. 1st and 2nd get into Champions League qualifying rounds, 3rd and 4th into Europa League qualifiers and Scottish Cup winners also into Europa League qualifiers.
