Europa League 20/21

[D31]

I vote Partizan Belgrade in Round 3

Basically we’re phucked. We need a miracle to get past Round 3 never mind the play off round.

one of matches gives anyone a chance. Coleraine gubbing Maribor etc.

Also the fact we dont need to worry about away goals probably helps us.

Let's see what the draw brings first. The 'big' team we face in round 3 might be knocked out in round 2 cos they are away in kazakhstan or something.

Mental that you could play AC Milan and then still have ANOTHER round to play before making it into the groups.

It’s pretty simple really. They don’t want the likes of us anywhere near their party.

They just want the tedious repetition of the same teams playing each other in the same groups with the sane results every year as that’s what the tourist fans from the Far East etc want to watch...

And that in a nutshell is it !!

What happened to this " Diddy " third Europa cup . Probably shelved till the Covid is expunged ?

That`s our only likely chance of near future Euro glory. ? Although that will see the same regulars ppearing. Maribor, Kairat Almaty , Venstspil . They all keep popping up don`t they ?

The new third tournament is coming in the next couple of years I think.

I believe they are still having this disgusting parachute thing though where teams drop from one tourney into the next - the absolutely worst thing about modern Euro fitba by a mile - so teams will be dropping from the Europa into this new thing.

I fully expect to see Timothy get papped out the champions league qualifiers, then get papped out the Europa league - probs at groups - & then still get to drop down again into this new tournament. Three attempts at Europe - Absolutely farcical.

So basically, just expect more of the same as we get now - but with shyter teams.

Yaaaay - Go UEFA....
