Outlander Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I don't understand fans who want easy groups in the Champs League. If that's what you want, then may as well play in the Europa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VALDOS Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Celtic with a fair chance of 3rd, I reckon 3 of the 5 engliah clubs will get through the groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The unwashed green and grey demons will travel to these games in big numbers. Given that the locals and the police are not the most tolerant there is great potential for TGFITW to disgrace themselves yet again on the Europrean stage. It's about the only thing I'm looking forward to in this farce of a "competition" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibrahim Tall Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 They'll get ****ed most likely but I'm still slightly jealous, trips to Munich, Paris and even Anderlecht is probably a level we'll never reach again sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manaliveits105 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Police in these countries have bigger fish to fry at the moment so would expect the great unwashed to be treated ruthlessly if they waste the police resources with their nonsense. From a playing side hope they get royally pumped with the thumb disappearing under his wig and Guppy sent off at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hueyview Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Usually about 10 points gets you through to the next round, three wins and a draw... PSG v Celtic games, like last seasons Man City v Celtic will be interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingantti1874 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 The only hope for Scottish football is outside investment.. Improving the coefficient is entirely worthless whilst the rest of club in Scotland are bottom feeding scraps. Get Outside investment into our league somehow (unlikely I know).. In my view we should beg our way into a British league.. A lot of clubs wouldbt make it but aftrr 5/10 years wed establish ourselves at a good level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambothump Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Its done, it's gone, Fergus A McCann did scottish football and this country a great disservice,by saving that abomination of a "club". Who with their equally disgusting neighbours, will ensure what happened in recent times, Aberdeen, Hearts, Dundee United, will never happen again. The football governance, are only interested in the duopoly, nothing else. Sent from my FDR-A01L using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre curser to the UEFA cup, had to be invited originally and another club from the same city couldn't be involved in Europe. If you read up on it, initially it was pretty low key tournament as teams finishing quite low in leagues would play in it and I think Hearts turned down playing in it in the 50s or 60s as we were on a North American tour.
