    Yes. You get nothing for a win at any stage. From the group stage on you get 2pts for a win and 1pt for a draw, regardless of competition.

    By qualifying for the CL group stage you get 4 bonus points. You don't get any bonus points for the EL group stage, but are guaranteed 3 points minimum. So just by being in the CL group stage you're already (usually) 2 wins ahead of a team in the EL group stage.

    You also get 5 bonus points for making the last 16 of the CL, then a bonus point for reaching each of the QF, SF and Final. You don't get any bonus points for making it out the CL group stages. Just the bonus points for reach the QF, SF and Final.

    Should the last 'CL' read 'EL'?

    Once we get past Suduva there will be excitement come the Draw.

    Potential for some winnable games and some glamour ties as well. Plus if we manage to get out the Groups we can start dreaming of 2003 again.

    Theres no way we won't beat Suduva or the other team. Will probably coast through by 3-5 goals.

    We should get through to the groups here now so that's at least 10m with the sale of Boyata also possibly along with Armstrong. there's no reason we can't do well in this competition if we strengthen the defense and add 1 or 2 more players given the money we have raked in these last couple of seasons even if a couple are loans while keeping our big hitters.

    Also probably going to be a pot 1/2 team should we qualify.

    We've got player's on bookings, haven't we?

    Think Broony's 1..

    Hammer them first leg. Pick up a booking or bookings during. Sit out the second leg fresh for the Huns game. Free to go for the group's..

    By "we", do you mean Celtic or @PaulM1888 and yourself?

    Not interested, just curious :fear:

    Gotta be a solid centre half out there that can act as the bully and battering ram whilst someone like Ajer is made to play the ball.

    get that in along with someone like a gamboa who's got pace but can also defend Against crosses for RB then maybe we could give this a right go.

    Assuming of course Celtic don't get Celtic'd in the group stage draw and manage to get the worst teams possible.

    Don't think we have any chance of going on any major run in the competition, I'd be delighted with the Last 16.

    Depends on the draw and if we add fresh blood , momentum can build we have a very strong attack.

    One (and probably only) benefit of europa over CL is more enjoyable matches, there won't be any 7-0 or 5-0 against us this time around, and we have a high chance of winning the group,

    Don't see us adding the 2-3 defenders we'd need to get far. Making it out of the group is a must, though.
