RossBFaeDundee Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Is there a much better pay out for the Europa League group st- I mean that stupid league phase than for the Conference League one? Is it something that Hearts should want? More guaranteed games if not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that the chance of getting out of the league stage or at least getting financial rewards for racking up points are better in the Conference But that’s not the point. Hearts fans wanting the Europa Conference where the games are slightly easier than the Europa league would be like Dundee fans getting annoyed at missing out on the Bottom six. We should be looking to compete at the highest level possible Edited May 10 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VincentGuerin Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 I've just looked at the list of teams we'd play in either competition. They're all pish, so it doesn't matter either way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 No Lamie in the squad but we still go for a back 3, and we throw the largely untested Astley in there. Hope he's good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
