Reuter and Moller both won the world cup as well and were in that Dortmund side -
Yup, already beaten our total for 2015/16 in the beginning of August.

Motherwell FC - A Thread For All Seasons

At the same time we could have gotten much less to almost nothing. £1m to Aberdeen means a lot less than it does to us, and if we get that sort of offer for a 1 season player (who wasn't looking anywhere near his former self in pre-season), we have to take it. We talk a lot about the perceived "value" of players, but at the end of the day, every club has a price they're willing to sell everyone at, and ours is lower than Aberdeen's (and most clubs know that). I'm really gutted to see Cedric go, but he's the first one we've let go in a long time that I actually feel has the natural ability to make it to the EPL, just as long as he applies that talent fully. Would love to see him bodying Salah in a couple of years. -
That's club coefficient, for whether your team gets seeded or not. Country coefficient is still based on each games result: https://kassiesa.home.xs4all.nl/bert/uefa/data/method5/ccoef2019.html

Not really, but its cool to be mentioned in a video like this. I just like giving kudos to the young guys whenever I can, I remember my time as a season ticket holder in the mid-late 90s when I was younger in a dreary atmosphere, wishing we had something like what they do now to liven up the place. Although we sat in the main stand so shit like that was never going to happen there. -

Icelandic fans giving Motherwell credit for their 'Viking' chant in this half million viewed video(3:10). We can't help but be viral sometimes these days, great job to the Bois in the East Stand. Over here in North America, even the American Football fans are copying it now, Minnesota Vikings call it the Skol chant. -

The transformation in this club over the last 6 months has been nothing short of remarkable. Full credit to Stephen Robinson, Alan Burrows and everyone that worked so hard behind the scenes to make this possible. And thank you to the players that made it possible too. Days like today don't come along often for fans of clubs like ours, I'm off to the pub to enjoy it a bit more. -

And there's our centre-half, Peter Hartley on loan from Blackpool for the year. Weird one as he's just signed there. -

Thats Grimshaw signed up, with one more coming within the hour. Wonder if the other ones a centre-half or if we're thinking McHugh will be slotting back in there with Grimshaw taking his place. -
Yea, don't know what I was thinking there...

0.125 overall points, as the 0.5 points they would gain is divided by the 4 teams taking part.

The Old Firm have been equally as culpable at that, so let's agree to say that none of us have been pulling our weight as much as we could. That being said though, if we deride the clubs for losing to unseeded sides, praise must then be heaped on those that overcome their seeded opponents so Aberdeen's 3 years in a row of doing just that should be applauded. They must be one of the only clubs in Europe to have done accomplished something like that. 1. Germany 2. England 3. Spain, Italy were 5th

Yea this is the same Rangers team that won only 1 of their last 25 games in Europe, they were a big part of us falling down the rankings like we did.

Because it's a 5 year average, also the reason we're still up their as we got a shit ton of points just for being in the CL qualifiers, regardless of the result. Its why its good to see Aberdeen making Europe time after time, most seasons its been musical chairs for the teams outwith the old firm for who qualifies, and leads to our clubs having poor club coefficients and poor seedings. If they make it next season Aberdeen will finally be seeded in QR2, and if they get to playoffs both seasons, there's a good chance the season after that they'll be seeded in QR3. Hibs would've gotten some club coefficient points for being in the next round, but the country wouldn't receive any, and its unlikely the extra points for them will make a difference any time soon.
