Ajax held FK Jablonec away 0-0 to qualify 1-0 on agg.

Despite Southampton battering them in the final 5 mins - they are oot! 1-2 aggregate.

FC Astra conquerors of ICT and WHU were 10 minutes away from knocking out AZ Alkmaar when leading 3-2 on agg. Two goals put paid to them...4-3 Alkmaar.

Only 1 British club playing in Europe tonight...Southampton after at 1-1 at home travel to Denmark for the 2nd leg against FC Midtjylland (With a name like that they should be Scottish) Anyway...it's Half time. Midgyland 1-0 Soton, the English side fielding their strongest line-up.

How much is the Europa League worth to Celtic? This is the first year of a new Uefa cycle, so the financial rewards are greater than before. Malmo earned £1.42m by beating Celtic; much more will come their way in the Champions League. Celtic will have £2.13m to help ease their disappointment before they enter the Europa League, the prize money for which is broken down below: Europa League prize money Group stage fee £1.74m Group stage performance £262,000 per win, £87,000 per draw Group winners £363,000, and £182,000 for runners-up Round of 32 £363,000 Round of 16 £545,000 Quarter-finals £727,000 Semi-finals £1.09m Final £4.72m for winner and £2.54m for runner-up So, even if Celtic do not gain a point in the Europa League they will be guaranteed £3.87m (£2.13m + £1.74m). Clubs also earn money from the competition's market pool, which includes a share of TV money. This is tricky to predict as last season's figures are not yet available - and the same is true of the gate money taken by Celtic during their Europa League campaign last year. But using a bit of educated guesswork, their combined value might be about £4m.

I forgot all about that draw...? Must have been the 'other' draw that caused it to slip my mind Group D...the group of death?

...also belting karaoke's with the gaffer must have been something to look forward to.

Greatest ever 'Huddle' at the P. Drome...

Full draw...as it happened. Kilmarnock v Hearts Livingston v Inverness CT Ross County v Falkirk Rangers v St Johnstone Celtic v Raith Rovers Morton v Motherwell Dundee United v Dunfermline Athletic Hibernian v Aberdeen

On listening again Pete it sounds as if they are saying 'Sheeps' not a word in the English dictionary but more acquaint to foreigners invading our land Stupid bastards need to get their lingo right when visiting Scotland. Keeds is what we want it to be, but it was sheeps. The Swedes were actually insulting the whole of Scotland rather than the paedo history of the Celtic Football Club.

After some more listening I'll hold my hands up and say it is KIDS!!! Celteec and Keeds gives it away...a speech impediment indeed.

They might reach the final they might not who cares?

Looking at the results tonight says this trophy is a stick on for us. The Scottish League Cup has been in existence for almost 70 years (older than me This trophy is like a magnet to Rangers FC 27 successes along with 34 final appearances. It should be re-named the Rangers Cup. We continue our journey against Airdrieonians tomorrow night with more expectation than hope. 28 this year?

Wasn't 'sheep' was it?

Coefficience (is that a word? ) Is oot the windae. Doesn't matter where you are regarding coefficientionsy (is that a word? :laugh:Main thing is entering a competition with the realistic chance of actually winning it. So coefficientelism (is that a word? ) isn't really important. It's all about the quality of the team taking part in the first place.

It was definitely the same as Friday, I could click on any other site no probs but when I tried on here it just wouldn't happen . I liked trublusince1982's reply though

A lot has been made of our failure to build from the expulsion we got shafting us into the depths of Scottish Football. The failure of the game itself is down to the 'vote' delivered back in 2012. C*ltic have failed big time yet again. They thought get rid of Rangers and Champions League football is all ours. The future of Scottish football wasn't even considered in the first place, just those with the dark hidden history which must never be discussed. Isn't it just joyful that all these with a bigoted outlook get one right up them?

We don't need Rangers, we'd rather play 6 CL matches any day. Oops!!!

They lost a goal from a corner kick at the P Drome for 2-3, tonight both goals conceded were from corners... Undisclosed fee then.

I fear your wrath on here if it doesn't work out that way

Guys on Fox Sports in their analysis of the game saying Delia is uninspiring as a manager and sellik are lacking in competition at domestic level missing the challenge of Rangers. Tell us something we don't already know lads. The mhedia in this country don't like to tell you that.
