vanderark14 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Very good result considering the first leg performance, the new signings along with cosgrove and Ferguson stole the show. I have a feeling Ferguson will be one of the stand outs in Scotland this season. i hate the the fact reality sets in when you realise there’s still two more matches including a playoff against CL drop outs if we get there.

My tonight was to suggest that they aren't just Scotland's shame based on last night's result. They are a permanent stain on Scotland. A national embarrassment.

PASTA Mick Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Decent start for us this season but we really should be in an even better position than we are. The next round will be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde1998 Posted August 2, 2019 Author Share Posted August 2, 2019 I've updated my spreadsheet following this week's fixtures: http://bit.ly/2yzwp8m Notably, Croatia and Serbia are both down to two teams (one in each competition), with Rijeka, obviously, playing Aberdeen next. We remain the nation with the most points in Europe so far this season - matching our 2015-16 tally already. The next round could go either way for us - both Europa League ties are winnable, IMO, with the added benefit of both Aberdeen and Rangers having their home leg second. Both will be unseeded in the play-off round draw (on Monday), but there are a number of beatable seeded sides: Legia Warsaw, Steaua Bucharest and Malmo stand out for me. Celtic are seeded in the Champions League and will face one of Young Boys, APOEL/Qarabag, Slavia Prague, Maribor/Rosenborg in the play-off round, should they beat Cluj. The latter two being, probably, the best opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4Footsoldier Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 That's a cracking set of results for us last night with both Croatian sides failing to win their home legs and looking further ahead the Cypriot team losing to Qarabag. Not that Celtic, Rangers or Aberdeen are guaranteed results this week especially all being away from home but if even one of them could get a win it would be a good step this week.

PASTA Mick Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Draw was a good result for Celtic considering how poor we played. I fancy us to get through but not sure about getting much further than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can assess how to beat Slavia Prague, whilst having the Europa League group stages as a backup.

Aye, agreed. We seemed happy to just play out the draw and take it back to Glasgow. After we equalised I never felt we were in any real danger.

sbcmfc Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 And If Celtic lose to Cluj they go into europa play off. So if they beat Cluj they are guaranteed a group stage of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous that any team basically has 3 safety nets to get dropped in to another tournament regardless of who it is and makes a mockery of the Europa League. I'd imagine any reasonably minded football fan would agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the losers of this round go into the play-off for the Europa League. In this instance, the loser between Celtic and Cluj play either the Swedish champions or some team from Moldova. The losers of the Champions League play off go into the Europa League group stages. It's been like this for quite some time.
