See if - emphasis on "if" - Rangers win tonight and qualify automatically for the Champions League, does that mean Hearts will take their place in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League?

No, Rangers winning or not tonight doesn’t change anything for the other Scottish clubs in next seasons competitions.

Different set of circumstances but sort of linked.

When Liverpool won the CL in 2005, they qualified as holders for the following year’s tournament.  However, they’d finished outwith the top four.  This meant that there would be five English clubs in the CL, a situation which EUFA hadn’t foresaw and there was a bit of going and froing and eventually they allowed that for that season only and changed the rules so that if a team qualified for the CL through winning it and they hadn’t also qualified through their domestic league, the lowest place domestic qualifier would drop down to the EL.   In 2012 when Chelsea won the CL, they’d also finished outwith the top 4 and so Spurs dropped out, which kind of was the icing on the cake.

Rangers XI tonight - McGregor; Tavernier, Goldson, Bassey, Barisic, Lundstram, Jack, Kamara, Wright, Aribo, Kent.

No obvious centre-forward there 🤔

(And half as many Scots in the starting XI than in 2008)

Listening to it on the radio, Pat Nevin sounds like he's had a few, rambling on about irrelevant stuff, taking ages to get to the point and slurring his words a bit.

Doesn't he normally sound like that? 😂
