I agree we need to do better but seeding systems etc are all with the idea of getting the big teams through. It’s why the Champions League is less interesting nowadays. Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 This conference league thing is as closed shop as the rest of the UEFA tournaments are. If we make it to the final qualifying round, we could draw a team who started in the champions league qualifiers, then got put into europa qualifiers, then got put into the conference. It's just another safety net for the bigger teams who make a mess of qualifying for the first two competitions. Link to comment

Yes but for them to get there to shag you out of euro money they've given you back your tv revenue which is reasonable wonga to have your best players sit on their bench. So sit down, shut the fuck up and know your place. Link to comment
Betty Swallicks Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Anyone who thinks the dropping down from Champions League to Europa to Conference isn't solely to protect the big fish is fucking clueless about football and most likely life in general. 1 Link to comment

Completely agree, it’s obvious as well, just as obvious as the 2 rat fuck teams that are trying to have second teams implemented on the guise that it would help our international team,? No a chance, how many were there in the squad for the euros, would they accept losing in competitions because they had to play young Scottish talent, would they fuck, blatantly obvious that they would be there as a revenue for money while there big teams are away joining a big league, creating 2 revenue streams to make them even bigger. Football died of greed years ago, we will all have to wait until the historical big teams end up bust for a new batch of teams to get there chance. Link to comment

G31DON Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Euro conference league is just the Europa league with the biggest 32 teams taken out of it. Europa league is now the closed shop for those that still have some muscle and romance, but not the prestige of a champions league team. Feyernoord, Marseille, Sporting Lisbon, Dinamo Zagreb etc. We find ourselves in basically the same situation as always, tough team in qr3 and 4, champions league drop out in play off round.

Hope he’s their number 1 this season. He’s useless. Genuinely could go down to Hazlehead or Sheddocksley at the weekends and get a better keeper from there. Link to comment
Guest Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Tim supporting, season ticket holder claims Tims 100% in crisis, and will be in transition for a year or two. We need to get a couple of more signings, capitalise on Thursday's promising performance and have a good tilt at overtaking Tims this season. This is a chance DM would bugger up, let's see if Glass can manage better. Link to comment

They are vulnerable but surely they’ll bring in a new keeper & another 2 or 3 defenders. Edouard will go too, so fucked up front. This is the best chance we’ll have to finish above them in years if we can bring in a couple of quality players. Link to comment

I just watched it again, he was covering the back post, one yard to his left and the forward would have had the whole goal to roll it into. I don't think I have ever seen Barkas make a save. His signing is up there with Raphael Scheidt and Daniel Prodan, utter waste of money. Link to comment
