GazzyB Posted March 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Would I be right in saying that last year we went into the 1st Qualifying Round? And would we be seeded this year if we were to finish 3rd or 4th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan1984 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Yes we did, Fair Play enters the First Qual Round, and I believe we were the longest lasting team too even though Norwegian Giants Rosenborg were one of them too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finlay Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Fourth Place - Second Qual RoundThird Place - Third Qual Round Scottish Cup - Playoff Round If the Scottish Cup is Runner Up/5th place then it will be Runner Up/Fifth Place - Second Qual Fourth Place - Third Qual Third Place - Playoff Round Any ideas when the actual dates will be announced? So at the worst cast scenario (getting IN to Europe wise) if we finish 5th and there is (for example) an OF Final we will go in at the 'Flamurtari stage' next season?

Welldaft Mk1 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Runner Up/Fifth Place - Flamurtari Fourth Place - Steaua Bucharest Third Place - ????????? Tough call really when you look at the respective teams and rounds from last year. If we finish 5th we could get another Flamurtari and win comfortably or we could do a Falkirk and lose to an FC Vaduz. 4th place and we will likely face a St Bucharest and find the going tough, but with Paw Broon in charge - you never know. 3rd place and you can probably accept the best we will get is one home and away tie to glamour opposition. On that basis I would probably rather Motherwell finished 5th - assuming that is good enough to get a Europa league place. Best tactics are to go for 3rd/4th and we will hopefully finish no lower than 5th. Would love a Spanish or Italian tie. Fingers crossed. A real glamour tie against Roma, Juventus or Valencia - at least that way we would be guaranteed a home crowd of 5092 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nethertonwellfan Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I would rather get pumped 10-0 on aggregate by a Valencia or Roma than get beat on away goals by a pub team. So it's 3rd for me all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJ-94 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 rangers and celtic have been drawn apart and raith rovers have got either dundee utd or rangers so i would epect 5th place to get europe this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcC Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Hibernian is loosing against Hearts, thats good for us I think..... 2:0 after 75 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el-pidge Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Shame Hibs pulled one back, would of helped the goal difference. Still all positives, if aberdeen beat dundee we move into 3rd on our own without even playing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el-pidge Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Yup, I wouldnt expect us to drop below 4th for a while now. Aberdeen arent helping our case against Dundee at the moment though 2-0 down already, United could put a few away today and if they were to see us off next week they are looking quite comfortable in 3rd... anything can happen though. I love the business end of the season! 2-1 now good stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary_411 Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Aberdeen to nick a late goal and put us into third, come on muttley ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el-pidge Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Never mind. We will just have to move in to 3rd next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 United game is key. We've got the possibility of third here. Everyone else is dropping points and we're carrying on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 The Hearts game was the biggest of the season, but now the Dundee United game completely eclipses that. The Dundee United game is huge. If offered, I'd take a point now, but at the same time 3 points are very much a possibility! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellworn Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 We will know Sunday if 5th place will get the last place in Europe. Info taken from from the top man for stats over at the Hearts Kickback board. ONE match has a huge say in whether or not 5th in the SPL (possibly Hibs) get into Europe; The Active Nations Scottish Cup Semi Final DUNDEE UNITED v RAITH ROVERS If Dundee Utd win, 5th will enter Europe (unless Ross County win the Scottish Cup) If Raith Rovers win, a First division side WILL qualify for the Europa League So fingers crossed for a United win tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzie Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I don't think that's right. I'm sure it has to be a Celtic-Utd final. I reckon Gordon Smith tried to make that the case, but was blocked by FIFA/UEFA. Could be wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I think of it the year Gretna got into europe as runners up Hearts never made the champions league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
