From the coefficient thread, someone has pasted a list of potential qualifiers for conf league group stage from another site and where they’d be seeded. Obviously a lot to be decided, and it’s got Lask in there instead of us, and Tottenham despite them getting beaten in the first leg, but gives an idea of where we would be placed. Saints have 6.675 points (Aberdeen 7.5) so both would likely be in pot 3. Here's the scenario for you to get into pot 3. There's guaranteed to be 5 teams ranked lower, so you need 3 of the following lower ranked teams to go through into the group stage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021–22_UEFA_Europa_Conference_League#Group_stage The losers from EL PO: Mura (1-3 v Sturm Graz), HJK (0-1 v Fenerbache), Alashkert (0-1 v Rangers), Randers (1-1 v Galatasaray), Omonia (winning 4-2 v Antwerp). Also wins from: Raków Częstochowa (1-0 v Gent), Anorthosis Famagusta (0-0 v Be'er Sheva). Couple of other clubs that are ranked below but they are losing their 1st leg games.

I don't think you'd wind Mourinho up to be honest, he's too long in the tooth and far to savvy for it. I suspect he'd actually turn up and be great fun to watch and assuming it's going his way he'd be all smiles the entire time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree house tam Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Let's remember that was not the usual Linz defence, hopefully the others don't make Thursday as well or we may need to play a different game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Should have added. In relation to the other night, there were a few moments where, even on a dodgy pitch, Michael O'Halloran was gliding over the turf like the player of old. I know we are maybe going to be forever grasping to the player that was but if he, and in turn the team, could add that to the armoury... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His takeaway was if MOH can play to that tempo with Middleton on the other side then we shouldn’t worry about having a striker when we’ve Kane who can get on the end of everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 It's almost impossible to prove either way, but I wonder how MOH over the past 12 months actually compares to the rest of his career with us. Always wondered if he is actually playing to the same level, it's just we've all forgotten how inconsistent he was, and are blinded by the couple of months where he was genuinely unplayable. Dunno, just a thought I've been having lately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree house tam Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I see a few of these arrogant, over confident, Bratwurst inserting, fake German c***s are making the journey over. I urge any Saints fan If any make it into the ground , eject them using as much force as humanly possible without damaging any of your surroundings. Keep Mcdiarmid beautiful and nazi free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season that was undone by the daft cards he got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Ah the memories! Agree with the praise for MOH, great to see him playing the way he did the other night. I wonder if having defenders occupied with Middleton's threat has opened things up for him a bit. He's certainly working harder off the ball than at any time previously. That front post run by Kane that he scored from in the Scottish Cup semi and the other night, wonder if he's always done it and we've not been great at picking him out. Last minute in this game (look away Zander Clark though!): Shows the benefit of an early ball across the face of the 6 yard box. I'm a big fan of an early cross for strikers to attack. Think back to how much we dithered on the ball in the first few months of last season when we'd get the ball wide then make about 6 passes before a hopeful ball into a packed penalty area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 It's gives me the fear that LASK sit back and try and counter us. We consistently look lost when we're allowed to dominate. Wotherspoon back though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FortescueFotheringhamSmyth Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 FT: LASK 1, TSV Hartberg 1. LASK were 1/2 with the bookies. Hartberg 4 points from 4 games before today. Finished 7th last year, both before and after the split. Hartberg won the corresponding fixture last season and drew at home to LASK, so 1/2 didn't look an enticing home banker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my early days on the media team when I was taking pics I was messing about with the settings on my camera when I took that and it almost never saw the light of day as everything around it had that funny circle around the images. I was scanning back through to decide what would go in the album and that stood out. That and my Liam Craig montage at Dens always come up and remind me how with zero experience I ended up on the touchline when the media team was 3 volunteers and there was no central plan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
