    It would be suspicious if this was done by drawing out every single match separately but that wasn't the case with this draw. All the teams were split into group of six and then the numbers 1 to six were drawn out and the result applied to every group.

    It's not that unlikely then that you could get all of the seeded teams home or away.

    0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 12.5%

    All very true.
    But one thing you can seemingly absolutely guarantee is that SEVCO will get a p1ss easy draw.

    Actually, if you are a conspiracy theorist, it could be fixed.
    When the first ball is put in , its spun round the bowl. The next ball is put in and spun to chase the first ball.
    When the gadjee then waits to let the balls spin more (but the 2nd ball is still chasing the front ball), the gadjee puts his hand in at the front and catches the ball as it comes round.

    They could have had more balls in the pot ( make it 6 balls instead of only 3 and no need for the middle pot) and simply make it ABBA style, rotating between seeded and unseeded pots.

    No it doesn’t
    0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 =0.125.

    50% x 50% x 50% = 12.5%

    Isn’t 0.125 just 12.5% expressed as a decimal fraction, or 1/8 in Proper Mannies’ fractions with numerators and denominators?

    Group for tomorrow draw

    PSV Eindhoven
    Sporting Lisbon

    All 3 teams are in top 13 seeds so if we win (ahem) we would be seeded in Play off round
