stokeriño Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 5D chess from Chelsea to qualify for this competition as their only realistic chance at revenge against the likes of St. Gallen (UEFA Cup 1st round, 2000). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each side faces six different teams (three at home, three away). The top eight overall advance directly to the round of 16; sides finishing from ninth to 24th will contest the knockout round play-offs, with the victors going through to the last 16. From then on it is a straight knockout." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokeriño Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Looking at the wiki page revealed to me that Chelsea, Fiorentina, Lens, Real Betis and Heidenheim haven't even qualified for the Big League phase and we all have to go through a Playoff Round against teams emerging from the qualifying rounds above and/or losers from Europa League qualifiers. Excellent. Exactly the kind of nonsense we deserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stokeriño Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 Dunno about the rest of the draw, but Chelsea will play the loser of Braga vs. Servette from the Europa League qualifiers. Not sure if playing the castoffs from another competition is more or less illustrious than playing one of the tiniest tiny teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stokeriño Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 Indeed. The game has generally been very laboured, and it just feels like pre-season never ended. Hopefully in the next few weeks that'll change. Hopefully. Thank you for that second goal, Noni. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyre definitely being joined by Shamrock Rovers in the Conference League unless they can overturn a 4-0 loss to PAOK in the Europa League qualifiers. St Patrick's Athletic are still in with a chance of qualifying having drawn 0-0 in Dublin with Istanbul Basaksehir. Larne lost 2-1 to Lincoln Red Imps. I don't know which I want to see more a Northern Irish team qualify for the first time or a second group stage appearance for Gibraltar.
