Laudbertz 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 ... ive heard there might be getting extra CL/Uefa cup slots being opened up and other countries would get their places and start in round 1. Would Scotland (ie Rangers) get an extra spot in it? I doubt it cause there's only 12 teams in the league but not sure either way. Whats the co-efficent (sp?) looking like these days? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest linzee Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 http://www.xs4all.nl/~kassiesa/bert/uefa/data/method3/crank2006.html the country rankings are there, but i think its a bit late now to be giving out places to champs league. i dont know how they will sort it out. but the teams in italy are likely to be banned too from europe, but their places will prob just go to the next in line teams in serie A. celtic's "run" didnt help our coefficient last year, as hibs got a bigger one than them! but if the greece FA lose all their european places then that would be more than one champs league spot going around and a couple of uefa. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I saw someone posting on one of the rumours websites about this yesterday and saying we would get a place. Someone else posted today with the coefficients and there were at least 3 teams with better co-efficients than us who placed 3rd in a league that had 2 participants in the CL. Wishful thining I believe 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishful thining I believe does it go by team ranking, or country's league ranking? i would have thought it was scotland's that counted, as we could have come 6th but we wouldnt have got into europe before the 4th and 5th just coz we had the next highest coeff would we? it would just give the next team in the league the place. its possible as greece have 6 european places in total, so they must be going somewhere and we arent far behind them in the table. but it is wishful thinking, as the qualifiers would be starting in a couple of weeks! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 fair point linzee - didn't think about whether it would be club or country coefficient - I agree with you that it makes more sense for it to be the country's as that is how the spots are determined in the first instance. Would be nice - but highly doubtful ! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colshy18 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 when i seen the greek clubs had been thrown out my heart skipped a beat thinking we might get in through the back door. butr the more you examine other countries placings around the euro scene you can quite clearly see that finishing second in scotland does not merit enough to earn a place in the champions league! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The_Rock Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Would the choice of who gets the extra places be given to the same people that fined us for sectarianism , tht dosent exactly work in our favour . ....... UEFA 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
