    Europe is only worth while if you get to the groups. Massive financial incentive. But we have to play 4 rounds of qualifiers to get there because UEFA don't want us there. F@cking four. They can call the Playoff round what they want. Its a qualifier at the end of the day Other countries get their representatives straight in because UEFA want that countries in it. 2 from Guffball, Germany, Spain, France, and 7 split between Portugal, Russia, Belgium, Ukraine, Austria, Switzerland, Turkey. Plus 10 champions league drop outs. Yet second and third in Scotland have four qualifiers to get in. Same as the Champions League making Celtic do the same. They are league champions yet have 4 qualifiers. Its a f@cking farce. Scotland is unwanted by UEFA hence why I say its f@cking pointless

    I would love to see us make the groups but I don't believe it will happen any time soon(note to the team prove me wrong)

    The fans get the only benefit of Europe. A jolly on the piss in some random country. That's the only plus point

    Watching football as a neutral is boring as ****, rather watch paint dry.

    Agree with you the set up isn't great and loaded against teams like ours but that's partly the result of being **** for so long.

    I'm not saying its pointless for the fans. The two away days in Europe I have done have been great

    I'm saying its pointless qualifying as a club.

    As for the watching football as neutral comment. I said on here before that my love of fitba grew when I realized there was more to it than 90 minutes. Its the whole experience, meeting people, cultures, beers, food etc. Ive had some of the best days out ive ever had watching fitba as a neutral. Cliftonville, Go Ahead Eagles, Keith, Auchinleck being the best. Annan was also great due to the locals pre and during the match.

    Last season at Pittodrie was worse than watching paint dry. It was f@cking awful

    Absolute b0llocks.
    Of course there is a point.

    The alternative is the league cup group stages, guranteed to be commercially at the very least a benefit in Europe over the League cup group stage.

    this season, two games out of two, its been an absolute dream to watch.
    Maybe you were a catalyst of the eye bleeding football. You should have left earlier (only joking)

    I've watched a few games as a neutral.
    I've been in the area, at a loose end and took in the game. It can be useful time-filler and entertaining in its own context.
    Nothing better than the passion, excitement, frustration etc that you get from supporting your local team.
