Wolfcastle Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Three of the four Champions League groups we've been in have come down to the final game. Only the melancholic planet bore under Dalglish (and now UEFA) could avoid it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Hypothetical situation - Dortmund are winning 2 or 3-0, or have already won. We are drawing 0-0 and get a corner with 2 mins of injury time to play - would you bring Pope up for it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) PSG would be raging in that situation if Milan broke away and went on to win the match as they (Milan) would go from 4th to 2nd out of nowhere, knocking PSG into the Europa, ha.

Paullow Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 2 minutes ago, jack j said: Too right The europa is the consolation prize I'd rather go out in a blaze of glory Aye, but it's a decent consolation prize though. More matches in Europe, new clubs to face, possibly even new countries, maybe more chance for lesser like fans (like me) to see the team if drawn against a Slavia Prague / Qarabag etc. and a chance to win a trophy and get back into the CL through the backdoor if we don't do quite enough in the league, and possibly even knock out the team that finishes 5th (not sure how that would work, but would be sweet )? More matches on TV etc. We hadn't even been in the Europa League for 10 years before this season, so I'd really like our European journey to continue, even if not the ultimate goal, so I think people would be fairly split, with no universal obvious answer.

Dortmund are saints compared to these other two. But yes, I'd want us to go for it and would relentlessly defend the decision if it ended badly.

We haven’t been in Europe for a decade - I want us to play as many games in it as possible. Something with thinking about - winning the UEFA Cup wouldn’t just be one of the biggest (maybe the biggest) moments in our club’s history to date - it also means qualifying for the European Cup again next year.

Guest Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Going to be cruel as fuck it we take 4 points each from Milan and PSG and don't make it through man. If Isak didn't go off against Borussia at home we probably get a point there and it's at least in our hands still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) Honestly think it’s 50/50 but few things in our favour, PSG don’t look good away from home, Dortmund will want to top group, draws no good for the cheating cunts, prestigious home game against big name opposition Dortmund will want to beat them and finally it’s 2 million a win which is not chicken feed to Bundesliga clubs.

Guest Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Almost an identical scenario to the last day of the 2002/3 group where a draw guarantees Europa League football but a win and the result going elsewhere for us sends us through. Hopefully Borussia do a Juventus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say 35% chance of CL, 40% chance of EL and 25% chance of going out of Europe. Looking alot better than it did yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 In two minds whether we should just rest players against Milan for the domestic league and cup campaign.

Let’s not chuck the towel in having spent all of last season playing phenomenally well to get into this competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
