RedLichtie86 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 All jokes aside. I think its great that Rangers got knocked out as they stand a far better chance of earning more wins in the Europa League/Conference this season.The more wins add more points to the table. With luck we can have at least 1 more team in the groups this year to boost it furtherThe prospect of have 3 teams in the Groups is not far off and that will be good for all teams involved. Other clubs will get extra cash as a result too through solidarity payments.Mon the Coefficient. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Is a Champions League win not worth more than one in the Europa? Seems silly if not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLichtie86 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Is a Champions League win not worth more than one in the Europa? Seems silly if not.Nope. Same value. Just bonus points for making groups and progressing to further rounds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Thanks. Seems a bit mad that. Obviously beating Barcelona or Man City should be worth more than beating the champions of Gibraltar and the Kazakh runners-up in the Conference League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to stay in 9th to have three teams in a group stage, though next season in 11th the cup winners/3rd will be guaranteed ECL GS unlike this season. If both OF get to the Europa League group stage again, get a few wins and progress to the knockouts it'll be much more profitable for the coefficient than if they qualified for the Champions League (whilst not banking as much money). 4 minutes ago, Bully Wee Villa said: Is a Champions League win not worth more than one in the Europa? Seems silly if not. In coefficient points, no. But you get 4 bonus points for getting to the CL GS. So you need at least two wins in the EL or ECL to make up for that. In terms of money, yes, much more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coefficient Wankers spent ages hoping we could get 2 CL sides, despite the obvious damage it does to our game. It's wonderful to see neither get near the group stages. Sorry to disappoint you but Rangers dropping into the Europa is good news for the coefficient. They will pick up a lot more points in the Europa League than the Champions League and will probably get to the Knockouts. And more bad news, next year there is going to be a third team in the group stages. The Scottish Cup winner/3rd place team goes into the Europa play-off. So even if they lose they go onto the Conference League groups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 To be fair I was actually cheering Rangers on towards the end. Was desperately hoping they'd get an equaliser to get a half point for the coefficient. Get oooooooooooot though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLichtie86 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 How does that dent the point I was making?Cause getting 2 teams to CL group stages wasnt the main aim.It was having teams in the Europe up until xmas in the CL and EL (and the EC now)1 or 2 teams in the CL groups is a bonus but will gladly accept teams only getting to EL and EC groups if it means more teams getting the chance.Going from 4 to 5 teans is great for Scotland. More chances for a team outside the 2 arse cheeks to make it to the groups.Your narrow minded view is on them 2 making the CL groups and the money they will earn.Whilst we look on on how a higher Coefficient will help the other sides get to the group stages and let others experience European football more often. What round. Who they could play. Etc.Mon the Coefficient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Judge Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I noticed that a few of the teams knocked out in last nights CL qualifiers go straight into the EL groups e.g. FC Midtjylland, Genk, Sparta Prague, Spartak Moscow. Is that because their national co-efficient is higher than ours? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mon the Coefficient. Whether or not it was the "main aim", it was certainly the main outcome in terms of its potential impact. The tiny wee bonus of an extra side getting to paddle in the diddiest of ponds for a wee while, is wildly overtaken by the damage of hugely exacerbating the gross imbalance that already strangles such sides in their legitimate week to week ambitions. It's really not my difficulty if the Coefficient Wankers are too myopic to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I'm not sure the coefficient wankers were actually hoping Rangers got to the Champions League groups. They would probably have finished bottom or 3rd in the group and not picked up many points. In the Europa League they will probably win the playoff home and away and have a good chance of getting to the knockouts and picking up more points. The same with Celtic. They will pick up more points in the Conference League than in the Champions League. And this means we keep 5 teams in Europe in future and will have a 3rd club in the groups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
