IF Rangers do not get a Euro Licence, from what I see so far it'll be

 

If we finish 3rd - when do we enter the Champions League? July 31st or August 1st

 

If we finish 4th - when do we enter the Europa Cup? August 2nd

 

I thnik we have ensured Europa Cup football next year with the result today :drinks:

Wee bit more time to squirrel money away as well. 31st July/1st August or 7th/8th August for CL (hopefully).

 

Now if we get papped oot to Benfica do we drop into Europa Leage Play Off Round with games on 23rd and 30th August?

 

A guaranteed four games in Europe would be brilliant!

Don't know if it'll be Benfica

 

but if we do get Champions league qualifiers then according to STV

 

If either side goes out at the third qualifying round or play-off round stage, they will automatically parachute into either the Europa League's play-off round or group stages respectively.

Yep that's definitely the case Brazilian.

 

Just studied the UEFA website there seeing where beaten teams from the 3rd Qualifying and Play-Off Round of the Champions League have ended up.....

 

And it's most definitely Europa League Play-Off Round and Group Stages respectively.

 

RIDICULOUSLY EXCITING NEWS!

 

So if we manage 3rd by the end of the season, we're guaranteed at least 2 European ties! yahoo.gif

Can't f.....g believe it - followed Motherwell for over 40 years - we get a sniff of Champions League football and I'm on f......g holiday in Majorca. wallbash.gifwallbash.gifwallbash.gifdash2.gif

 

Any chance we might draw a Spanish club? Cheap flight to the mainland.

 

I'm in Menorca for the first leg so I'm hoping its somewhere in Spain and I can do a cheap connection thru Madrid! Might see you at the airport and how do you tell the wife that you are fucking off during the family holiday?

It wont be a Spanish side.

 

The Spanish side who finish 4th (most likely Malaga) will enter the following round of Non Champions.

 

We will be getting:

 

Portugal

Russia

Ukraine

Holland

Turkey

 

 

So most likely:

 

Benfica / Braga

 

Dynamo Moscow / CSKA Moscow

 

Shakhtar Donetsk / Dynamo Kiev

 

AZ / Twente / PSV / Feyenoord

 

Besiktas / Fenerbahce

 

 

And no we wont be seeded when we fall into the Europa at this stage, that is a common misconception.

Portugal or Holland. Don't fancy the costs etc. of going to the rest. 'Poor' draw in the CL and I'll save my money for the Europa League.

don't like the negativity in that Statement Finlay, if we make the champions league qualifiers, I'm hoping to get to the play offs and then its the world!

 

but aye we can always wait for decorators photaes from the Ukraine
