Reds Cheering On Schalke?


Recommended Posts

Just wondering if all reds will be cheering on Schalke against Manchester United in the semis of champions league?

 

If Man Utd, or one of the Spanish teams win the Champions League then 2nd place in SPL will get into Champions League Qualifiers and 4th in the SPL (United) will get into the Europa qualifiers meanign 5 Scottish teams in Europe next season.

 

However if Schalke win the Champions League then only 1 SPL teams gets in Champions League and 3 into Europa League.

 

Reason for above is that countries can have maximum of 4 teams into Champions League and if English, Spanish or Italian team wins it the place reserved for holders is filtered down rankings table to country in 16th place which for the coming season is Scotland, meaning extra Euro place.

Is this true?.............Im pretty sure they said on the radio last week that the only way that the Jooot could get into Europe is if Der Bosche win the SPL and the JJ's win the cup :dontknow: If Schalke win the CL then the SPL champions go into the CL and the runners up, third place and fourthplace/Motherwell go into the Europa League

Couldn't care less who wins. Although if it means more Euro spots for Scotland I will hope Schalke win.

 

Although I do hate Aberdeen fans who support an English team with more passion than there own, just don't understand how people can support two teams.

 

agree with bold part. nae italic part. well, you can 'follow' a second team as such. makes watchin a far better league than our own a lot more interesting etc

England is more responsible than any other country for the horrific state of the game at the moment.

 

Germany has a more equitable league and a greater spread of league winners.

 

For that reason, get Man Utd to f**k, the huns of England, hope they get cuffed like their brethren Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs.

 

Mon the Schalke.

 

I won't be watching this capitalist's footballing utopia.

We cannot qualify for Europe, we'd just get humped in any case, so I don't give a flying f**k how many places we get.

 

Nor do I give a toss about the co-efficient. The lower the better. If it means we never see either of the scum in the big tournaments again, that can only be a good thing.

you dont remember the run a few years ago then?

 

Aye the scintillating run to the round before the quarter finals. This disna come onto football's radar. It's irrelevant in the grand scheme.

 

It was enjoyable, but hardly groundbreaking.

 

It helps Rangers and Celtic far more if we get a better co-efficient.

 

Ergo, the lower the better.

you said "we'll just get pumped" if we get into europe

 

well, no.

 

i got to go to madrid to see aberdeen play and i got to witness us dismantle a regular champions league team 4-0, our club also made a lot of unexpected money out of it too

 

this, my friend, is something which fans born 1984 and onwards greatly appreciate and would like to taste more of, so please do not belittle it

 

Celtic, who have pulverised us this season, got thumped in Europe by Braga and Utrecht, two clubs of a similar standing to Aberdeen in their respective domestic leagues.

 

Aberdeen, if we made Europe with this team, would embarrass the club with their performances. I have no interest in seeing that.

 

If our co-efficient drops so low that Celtic and Rangers have to go through four two leg ties, two of which will be in the summer, to make the group stages I'll be absolutely delighted. Over the f**king moon.

 

Maybe getting thumped every year in Europe will make them come to their senses.

That would be the last 16 then. We made the last 32.
