Ginaro Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Update after this week's games. Red Star got an unlikely victory against Liverpool - cancelled out by Celtic's win - while Rangers conspired to throw it away in Russia. Need two wins to move to 19th which is still doable. Sweden and Norway drew against each other, while Astana won for Kazakhstan. 19 Serbia 6.000 22.250 +0.500 1 UCL 20 Scotland 6.000 21.375 +0.500 2 UEL 21 Belarus 3.500 20.375 1 UEL 22 Sweden 3.375 20.150 +0.250 1 UEL 23 Norway 5.125 19.950 +0.250 2 UEL 24 Kazakhstan 4.250 19.250 +0.500 1 UEL 25 Poland 2.250 19.250 0 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastecoatwilly Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Great season for the coefficient at this rate Scottish teams will lose a qualifier and start a wee bit later maybe not next season but the one after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately needs to be the target for next year, then 15th which gets us 2 CL places, currently Switzerland on 26.3 so a gain of 5 points 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately needs to be the target for next year, then 15th which gets us 2 CL places, currently Switzerland on 26.3 so a gain of 5 points The target should be two teams in a group stage, or one in the UCL group and the others getting to the later stage of UEL qualifying. It only takes a couple of seasons of those results to move up the table. That's what the teams above us have done - last season both Serbian teams got to the UEL knockout stage, but in the previous three seasons their points were less than ours with only 1 or 0 teams in the UEL group stage. Also, important for both clubs to get results for their own club coefficient. Celtic need another win to stay at the same number as last season (31), while a Rangers win would move them up 50 places in the club rankings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had the same performance every year as this year we would be top 15, and too be fair its been a good year for clubs, but hardly stellar yet. If Hibs or Aberdeen had been able to get to the group stage also, and picked up a few more points that would have been excellent, and given us a real boost 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginaro Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Update after this week's games. Celtic's win and Rangers draw puts us just another draw behind Serbia in the race for 19th. Red Star lost and are up against PSG next match so hopefully shouldn't get a result. The two Cyprus teams won so they are now five wins clear of us in 18th, though neither can make it to the knockout rounds. 19 Serbia 6.000 22.250 1 UCL 20 Scotland 6.750 22.125 +0.750 2 UEL 21 Belarus 4.000 20.875 +0.500 1 UEL 22 Sweden 3.625 20.400 +0.250 1 UEL 23 Norway 5.125 19.950 2 UEL 24 Kazakhstan 4.250 19.250 1 UEL 25 Poland 2.250 19.250 0 https://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/data/method5/crank2019.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 There isn't any link between the coefficient this thread is about and the womens equivalent (if that's what you're asking). It's particularly significant for Womens CL as only the top 12 nations get 2 slots. Even so, the Womens CL is a knockout tournament and Hibs Ladies will require to win a 4-team qualifying group (held in a single country over the course of 1 week) to qualify for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 With Red Star's defeat it means if Celtic or Rangers get a draw on Thursday we will overtake Serbia for 19th place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year it meant the CL qualifier for 19th moving up from Q1 to Q2 to fill the vacancy created by a reserved spot for Titleholder's not being used. 18th this year saw the CL qualifier move up from Q1 to Q2 and best EL qualifier move up from Q2 to Q3 Relatively minor in the grand scheme of things, but something I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
