Tord31 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 We are so far down the rankings in QR2 that we probably want to be in QR1 if we are in europa to at least build up some more points against a diddy. Link to comment
RAZOR Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Europa League qualifiers are a nightmare for me next season. At work for these two games. July 2, 2015 1st qualifying round Europa League, 1st leg July 9, 2015 1st qualifying round Europa League, 2nd leg On holiday for these two games July 16, 2015 2nd qualifying round Europa League, 1st leg July 23, 2015 2nd qualifying round Europa League, 2nd leg On holiday for this one as well. July 30, 2015 3rd qualifying round Europa League, 1st leg Can make this one August 6, 2015 3rd qualifying round Europa League, 2nd leg At work for these two as well. August 20, 2015 4th qualifying round Europa League, 1st leg August 27, 2015 4th qualifying round Europa League, 2nd leg Hope the Champions League ones we're going to be in are a bit more Boofon friendly. If it's the Europa League we're in then I'm praying for the group stages.Ouch. Away on holiday for 2 and a half weeks in July. Will definitely make the 4 round though Link to comment
MMG Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Utd & Dundee can actually still catch us mathematically & we "could" still finish 5th Link to comment
Sonoftherock Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 As someone else said earlier, I wouldn't mind us playing in the earlier rounds... excellent pre-season prep, playing some competitive fixtures. Link to comment

The Cockney Don Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Can make this one August 6, 2015 3rd qualifying round Europa League, 2nd leg The Dons at White Hart Lane Link to comment
dave_min Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 The Dons at White Hart Lane I would attend that fixture. Link to comment

Pudgie Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Not giving up on winning the league whatsoever but just looking ahead to what might be if the bookies get every result remaining this season correct. Based on the current league standings around europe (and based on Celtic winning the Scottish Cup) our opponents on July 16th/23rd are from this list. West Ham United Will update the list as we get closer to June 22nd.How are they getting in? only 5th & 6th in the EPL gets EL I thought. Link to comment
The Cockney Don Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 How are they getting in? only 5th & 6th in the EPL gets EL I thought.Fair Play ! 7th(Tottenham) will get in as well if it`s an Ars*nal v Liverpool fa cup final . Link to comment
Tord31 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 England is 5th placeLeague cup winner (will revert to league when Chelsea qualify for europe)FA cup winner (will revert to 7th if winner is in top four - only Arsenal?) Link to comment

We would be seeded in the 1st round, wouldn't we? Probably draw some bunch of Kazakhstani no-hopers and run up a record score. Then have a fair chance of a seeding in the 2nd round and another easy tie. All this transpires and we'd probably get a much easier team in the 3rd than this season What happens if we win that? Would it be the group stages next or is there a 4th round? As you say, a good chance for more points too add to those gained this season as well as an extra million in gate fees Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think the 1st qualifying round is regionalised so no chance of playing FC Borat Yeah you need to play 4 rounds before the group stages. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 just to confirm QR1 is only round we would be absolute favourites Link to comment

Tord31 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 So the Pot we were in last year gives an indication of the regionalisation which will come into play the day before the draw Group 6seeded: Aberdeen, Jeunesse d'Esch, Tromsø IL, Ekranas Panevezys, MyPa-47, Bangor Cityunseeded: Dundalk, Stjarnan FC, Crusaders Belfast, Santos Tartu, IF Fuglafjørdur, Daugava Riga So the opponents possibilities last year were Ireland, Iceland (thank fuck we didn't play them turned out to be not bad), Northern Ireland, Estonia, Faroes and of course Latvia.

Tord31 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Well we could be an underdog in QR2 defeat them and carry their seeding into QR3 yes. Link to comment
dervish Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 You should be employed by a paper or something. I've no idea what the fuck is going on. Hows your drawings? A wee infographic wouldn't go a miss. Little wee flags and league rankings, price of a pint and female to male ratios in the potential away destination. That kinda stuff. 1 Link to comment
