mick90 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 https://scottishpyramidnews.yolasite.com/draws.php have been tracking UEFA ko draws for several years and are now highlighting the incompetence and unfairness of the `third bowl` system, which in recent draws for 112 ties in CL/EL 1 and 2 produced 74 seeded `teams` at home 2nd leg ( which most clubs consider an advantage and might also include extra time and penalties on home soil), compared with 38 unseeded. An alternative draw method is being suggested, which would have produced 56 unseeded and 56 seeded teams at home 2nd leg ... or first leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 In the upcoming CL QR4 draw for the "best placed" path, Benfica/Fenerbahce & Slavia Prague/Dinamo Kyiv are seeded. Standard Liege/Ajax & PAOK/Spartak Moscow are unseeded. However, due to the ridiculous rule that Russian & Ukrainian clubs are being kept apart (just like Armenia/Azerbaijan and some others I think), it's already known that Benfica/Fenerbahce will play PAOK/Spartak Moscow and Slavia Prague/Dinamo Kyiv will play Standard Liege/Ajax. The draw is only to decide the order of the legs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Whereas it was a laugh and good experience having 2 games against an English Premiership club, there's no doubt that Aberdeen got the absolute shittiest end of the stick with the draw. More so when you see New Saints v Lincoln Red Imps or whatever in exactly the same round. How the f**k does that work out that one of them ended up seeded, yet Aberdeen weren't ? The whole system is completely screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole system is completely screwed. TNS v Lincoln Red Imps was in the champions path, in which only 3 clubs were unseeded (the CL preliminary round losers, including Lincoln Red Imps). All 15 CL Q1 losers were seeded, meaning any of them could get any of the 3 unseeded clubs and other than those 3 ties the rest was an open draw (resulting in Drita from Kosovo playing F91 Dudelange from Luxembourg, with the latter winning). With TNS, one of the lowest "seeded" clubs got Lincoln Red Imps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
