So 26 clubs go through automatically, & the rest have basically next to bvgger all chance of qualifying at all?? This needs reformed if we are to ever see Rangers play in the Champions League again. I thought they were going for a slightly expanded competition, didn't know that it was actually less!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
917 191 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Only 4 places through the champions route now, and 2 for non-champions. Down from 5 and 5. So all 4 each from Spain, England, Germany & Italy now go through automatically, plus 3 from France, 2 from Russia (+1 in qualifiers) & 1+1 from Portugal, Ukraine, Belgium (!) Turkey & Austria (!!). None from Holland.. These seedings seem to give an advantage to teams in Europa league though, as I can’t remember any Belgian or Austrian team doing anything in CL. So doing well in the EL could get Scottish teams back into the CL, confusingly.. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
26th of foot 5,829 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 Well, a bit of serendipity in the Europa Cup group stages draw. FC Cludgie have drawn FC Cluj; thus, if FC Cluj win again, do they get to keep Neil Lennon? We should be told. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
