Bazzas right boot Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) If rangers win the tournament (looking at the teams left, it's not beyond the realms of possibility), they get automatic qualification for the ucl. If they done that and celtic won the league does 3rd place in the league get the 2nd place ucl spot....

They were already in the next round by virtue of winning their group, the games last night were a play-off between CL drop downs and EL group runners up to see who joins them.

That would be the case I think with both Rangers and Celtic going directly into the Group Stage and 3rd place going in at the 2nd Qualifying round. However should Russian teams be unable to participate, coefficient wise we'd become the 10th ranked nation and in with an outside change of catching 9th place Austria who only have LASK left in the conference league, 9th would bump us up from 2nd qualifying round to 3rd.

No, in that scenario both would go into the group stage, but we wouldn't get an extra place, there are only two places available to Scottish sides. If you go back to 2012, Chelsea won the UCL after finishing 6th in the EPL. This qualified them for the following season's UCL group stages, at the expense of Spurs, who had finished 4th in the league but went into the Europa League group stages instead.

You are right, would only be 3 teams if Rangers won the Europa league but then finished outside the top 2, like last season villareal who won the Europa League but finished 7th in la liga were awarded a CL group place for this season and Spain's top 4 all still qualified Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chillidigits Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 For me watching Rangers over the two games was the perfect example of raising your game to match and outscore the opposition. You could see how fired up Rangers were - they knew they had to be to stand a chance against the tournament favourites . The parallel in our league is the need for teams to raise they're game against the old firm but when you're playing each of them maybe four times a season over familiarity sets in and the tendency isn't to go toe to toe with them and get them rattled. Mght be more inclined to happen if teams were only playing them twice a season. Must admit I looked forward to the big clashes much more in days of old because they didn't happen as often.

The problem is Scottish managers who have this fear of the " OF". They seem to think that keeping a clean sheet for the first 20 minutes is winning the league. Until other teams go up against the bigot twins with a view to winning, or at least taking the game to them, nothing will change. Even Robbie won't attack them ( or any other team it seems ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there will always be varying degrees of interest in any league set up . However it seemed to me that in the league set up where a larger number of teams played each other twice firstly the interest was sustained to a certain extent because of the lack of over familiarity, secondly when the top of table fixtures or old firm or derbies came along ultra high interest and anticipation and thirdly Hearts were not bad at putting the lower teams firmly in their place which meant for them it wasn't all that interesting I'll admit but who cares because for us it was.

That Norwegian lot by no means a big budget team but fantastically well drilled to be able to wipe the floor with 'Tic. Every Scottish non OF manager should be replaying that tie to their players.
