Motherwell have a slightly softer draw than us in both rounds, but they would still be second favourites by a distance against Hapoel Beersheva. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about Motherwell having a "slightly softer" draw.... it looks like a much easier draw to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtic are also in the Champions Path, which is obviously easier than the League Path. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably correct there - but the difference in QR2 (Northern Ireland vs Norway) is probably even more stark than the prospective QR3 away ties in Lisbon and the Israeli desert. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Well, at least we don't have to worry about getting our hopes up. I'm starting to think that the bottle-jobs against a mediocre Maribor and that even more mediocre Cypriot mob were the best opportunities that we're likely to get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm starting to think that the bottle-jobs against a mediocre Maribor and that even more mediocre Cypriot mob were the best opportunities that we're likely to get. Were they 'bottle jobs' ? Admittedly we should have beaten Maribor 4-1 at Pittodrie, when Stockley won every knock down going and Rooney kept missing easy chances. Then we were the better side over there and the victims of scandalous refereeing eg rolling the ball into an empty net, but getting pulled back for a (missed) spot kick - keeper staying on the park for a cynical assault, whereas he couldn't send off Stockley quickly enough. Apollon looked decent in both legs - the bigger Cypriot clubs still maintain the transit club status for S.American or Balkan players to gain EU passports - and if you look at their results since they played us, you will see that they're strong - especially of course in 35 degree temperatures at home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
