Aye, it's important to them so they can get some more money out of their fans and that's about the size of it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim White 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Dundee United twice let slip an aggregate lead against Slask Wroclaw as they won 3-2 but went out of the Europa League on away goals. More... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Pretty embarrassing but the way UEFA have set up the European competitions does nobody favours except the big 8 clubs in the CL. Scrapping the Cup Winners Cup was an error as now all those sides have to go into the Europa qualifiers which means a silly amount of teams just have to qualify. But it shows the level of SPL now that Dunder Utd cant get past an unheard Polish team. Yet in the late 80s Utd were knocking out Barcelona in the Semis of this cup. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54andcounting 0 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 ....Also like to add, the SPL's reason for starting the season early was to help our clubs in Europe. Whit the fuck! The season hisn'y started yet and already 1 club is out! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigRFC 0 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Watched it and the Polish team were clearly far fitter! Utd were all over them the first half and should have went in 4-1 at half time. Came out the 2nd half and put 11 men behind the ball basically, invited pressure onto themselves and by the time the poles scored their 2nd(cracking goal tbh) you could tell they weren't going to score! Although Daly had a sitter in the last min and skied it! The polish team were nothing special and Utd should have beat them. It seems now though that the teams outwith the OF have some sort of inferiority complex when playing a team with a foreign language. Also can't remember the last time I saw Tannadice that full outwith the OF, they had filled the 3 stands with the poles taking the other. Awels looks like it's down to us yet again for the 4th or 5th year running to keep the co-efficient up...joys.. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season hisn'y started yet and already 1 club is out! The SPL remain clueless. They think 1 or 2 weeks early for the first game then have a break for friendlies helps. They are getting more stupid. If the really wanted to help clubs in Europe then do what the Russians and Scandinavians do, start the season in March. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
