sergie's no1 fan Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 It was nearly another glorious Scottish/Irish/Palestinian failure but they got the job done. I just hope Celtic don't sign players that will take place of any young Scot now that they have made it. Will be interesting to see how Celtic do in the group stages. Diddy clubs who reach the big league in this country kept being told not to just make up the numbers and take the money, now it's Celtic who probably don't care if they lose all 6 games because they will be making a fortune. The guys on the radio were saying it's good for Scottish Football (I agree it has its positives) but then kept talking about having at least £20,000,000 more in the bank to blow Rangers away (and therefor other teams) so I don't see how that benefits Aberdeen, Hearts ect. Would love to see Real Madrid come to Scotland, especially if they were to stay at Mar Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wastecoatwilly Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 the result last night was more important than the performance,celtic done the job in the first leg,it's good to be back at the top table of european footie,6 games to look forward too win lose or draw,celtic don't control how much money we get for being in the champions league it's just the reward for representing Scottish football as champions of our country,it felt like the ref had a calendar instead of a watch last night ,http://CELTIC PLC CELTIC PARK GLASGOW G40 3RE Company No. SC003487 Status: Active Date of Incorporation: 12/04/1897 Note the date of incorporation THE RANGERS FOOTBALL CLUB LIMITED IBROX STADIUM 150 EDMISTON DRIVE GLASGOW G51 2XD Company No. SC425159 Status: Active Date of Incorporation: 29/05/2012 Note the date of incorporation.

Greenlantern Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Could someone please tell me if Celtic qualifying means everyone in the Premiership (except The Rangers) get a cash windfall? I don't think it's been mentioned at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davie Bhoy Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 This is where the seedlings make a mockery of the tournament.Leicester City, first time in the CL & hardly set foot in Europe. In fact not played in Europe since 2000/01 & yet they don't have to go through qualifiers and straight into pot 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Leicester are the English champions it would be even worse if the other 3 English sides were above them in the seedings, unless one of them was defending it. It's not a perfect system but this particular point is absolutely correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not necessarily a bad thing for Celtic, you could miss an actual pot 1 team (on ranking points) like Real Madrid and get Leicester or CSKA Moscow instead. Neither would be easy games, but you don't get easy games at this level. On the other hand, the boost of Leicester to pot 1 (rather than pot 4), may well have doomed Celtic to pot 4 rather than pot 3...although other results would need to happen for that complaint to be relevant.

TheGoon Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 How on earth are CSKA in Pot 1? How the Russian league has made it into the Top 7 I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I'm not buying the "clubs should be grateful" pish that they've netted a whopping £200k whilst Celtic stand to earn in excess of £20 Million. Having a team from the league at the highest level of club football is good, but the revenue Celtic earn is only going to widen the gap between them and the rest, damaging the domestic game. Similarly, if Dundalk had managed to make the CL last night the League of Ireland would've become more of a joke than it already is - they'd be streets ahead of everyone else.

However the seeding was done wouldn't matter a monkey's f**k to you anyway, no matter who you get drawn with you'll be papped out after the group stages.
