    The UEFA Europa Conference League starts 2021/2022 season.
    It's supposed to benefit the lower ranked teams but allows teams from the "big 5 leagues" to take their usual spots straight into top stage although this time its play offs as there is no direct entry into group stage.
    I dont believe teams from the "big 5" leagues should be allowed access at all into this league, even if they are put out of CL or Europa.
    Typical corrupt UEFA.

    This is a big thing. Would it be better for clubs to fail in Europa qualifying or the group stages to try and win this.
    Reality is we are probably to good for this competition so will never be in it so stuck in 2 much harder competitions which we won't win.

    Edit: Never mind. It seems the current format is different from earlier proposals.

    I'm assuming so but I'm not sure, if Alkmaar beat us do we enter the group stages in this?

    I'm sure we do. I'd rather enter it at the last 32 though with a real possibility of winning a diddy cup, the other diddy Cup keeps getting won by the big boys who drop out the champions league :56:

    A team from the usual leagues will win. Roma, Spurs, Rennnes and Union Berlin are already in the play offs. A couple of teams from the big leagues will come 3rd in their europa group getting them into the 2nd round although if you win your EL or ECL group you get through to the 3rd round of that competition this year.

    Big result from Bohemians in the third round beating PAOK the Greek league runners-up 2-1 in the first leg in Dublin. Probably the clubs best result in a European game since the 3-2 win over deadco back in 1984. Probably get knocked out in the return but quite a result to win the first leg all the same.

    Rennes saying it’s not been postponed by UEFA and they’re turning up to play the game.

    They say Spurs haven’t shown proof they don’t have 13 eligible players for tomorrow night…

    Be good if they forced a forfeit over this fiasco.

    * drawing Qarabag or Maccabi, dont want us having to travel that far.
    PAOK and Spurs/Vitesse no thanks.
    Bodo, they humped Roma 6-1 maybe avoid them for now.

    Randers i'll take
    Partizan, revenge for the 5-4 game would be good
    Slavia, i suppose they'll do
