We didn't seem to have a thread dedicated to the actual competition yet.

Here's a cheery stat from the Daily Sevco to kick things off: apparently, of the 576 clubs entering at the First Qualifying Round stage over the years, a grand total of 6 have made it through to the Group Stages. Rosenberg did it twice.

The Daily Sevco ended their article with a wee poll on whether Sevco would be the seventh. Currently 59% of them think they will. Bless.

I think it would be pretty rank if we didn't get to the 2nd qualifier, and being seeded there, should really expect to get to the third. Then maybe a big glamour tie and out with a bang?

Four rounds to get through before the group stages, the fourth of which always sees some big teams joining in. Everton and Marseille are two I can immediately think of for this season. I don't honestly think any of our Scottish teams will get past that.

I would love to see us up against a team of that calibre all the same, and if it's"out with a bang" then so be it.

When we played Rosenberg they were  the seeded side yet we played them at home first?

When we played Lucerne they were the seeded side yet we played them at home first?

I would assume ESES was the same?

so I do not think it matters it is the luck of the draw.

We played all those sides away from home in the first leg.

As I Said both these teams were seeded and we played them at home first legs??

Can someone tell me what is wrong with this as it is what happened both the seeded teams played the first leg at home????

 

See what you meant now, probably would have been less confusing  to say we played them at their ground for the first leg
