Cup Winners Cup

Uefa Cup

Champions League 

Europa League

2020-new-uefa-europa-conference-league-l

We've tried all the others, time for the modest, diddy-club tournament of our dreams. Looking forward to being a huge draw for the 3rd placed Andorran team in the near future.

Depending on the final league position, our draw will either be on June 15th or July 18th apparently...

I would love us to actually win a couple of games as it's been a while since we've been able to witness that (closed doors games against Glentorran and Coleraine don't count).

So here's the potential teams we could get if we go into the 2nd round

And Here is the 3rd round.

These are slightly out of date (there from last week) so there could be changes in the teams listed and seeding s but we should be seeded for 2nd Round and unseeded for 3rd Round.

 

Won't bother with the play off since I doubt we will get there. That can wait and see.

How the hell are Panathinaikos a lower seed than ourselves ? 

What has happened since they battered us 5-0 on aggregate in the Champions League qualifiers ?

They haven't been in Europe for the last four seasons and thus haven't been able to accumulate points, and Greece's national coefficient is fairly shit.

They did actually qualify for the 2020/21 Europa League, but had an outstanding ban from UEFA for failing to meet FFP rules.

Updated 2nd round table. This assumed seeded teams in 1st round make it through so there's some caviaties to this.

To clarify since it is a bit confusing

The draw seperates all these teams Into seperate pots of 10 teams (one may be different in size). Half will be seeded, half will be unseeded. This is regionalised for 1st and 2nd round but afterwards it can be anywhere.

 

So now, we will be seeded as nowhere won't be enough undecided teams that old overtake us and put us into the unseeded slot.

 

So basically, look for the teams in country's close to us. It's a similar situation as our last European outing where we faced 2 Northern Irish teams in the 1st and 2nd round, and an Israeli team in the 3rd. Be prepared for our European journey to potentially be within the British Isles.

Trying to arrange holidays for this Conference League. 

Would it go..

2nd Qualifying Round - Seeded - Away leg 1st (July 21st)

3rd Qualifying Round - Unseeded - Away leg 2nd (August 11th)

Playoff Round - Unseeded - Away leg 2nd (August 25th)

 

Or are the home/away leg dates luck of the draw and not actually based on seeding? Will probably need to hedge my bets on the dates if that's the case 😑

The home and away ties are not predetermined by seeding. The draw itself will determine whether we are home or away in the first leg. so you will have to wait until the 15th June to see which date the away leg will be.

Are we allowed to play the famous Europa Conference League music during the qualifying rounds? 

Unfortunately not - or face a UEFA fine.

It's the same music as the Europa League.

I wonder if we got fined for doing it during the Champions League qualifiers?

Assuming we'd avoid the Polish & Kazakhstani teams in the 2nd round based on the regionalisation?  That's a bit of a relief as they would be tricky.  Key here to hope we don't get the 2nd or 3rd best team in Sweden. 

As said on the 'Well thread, I've a decent chance of making the game in July so I'd be very happy if we ended up with a trip to Iceland, Faroes, Gibraltar of Rep of Ireland.

Does anyone know of any good websites to book international travel? I havent been abroad at all and the last time we were able to go yo am away game was back in 2014 (which I wasn't able to go to).

So what would be dream tie out of that lot? I was going to suggest a Welsh side but look what happened to Kilmarnock! A team from Gibraltar maybe.

And as  Belorussian side are Dinamo Mince allowed to play in this cup?

Does one match in Kazakhstan count as a European Vacation?

More of a vacation than a league cup grouper to Morton I guess - let's compare notes at the end of July :)

My point was more that Kazakhstan isn’t in Europe.
