Only a 12 hour flight to get there!! WTF!Hahahaha I'm generally good with geography, but did not realise Almaty is virtually on the Chinese border. F*ck that for a laugh.
Good luck to @Gazrfc who'll be on the deep dark web trolling through Armenian and Kazak forums.
Not easy draws but when you compare it to the sides they could have got, it is a decent draw.Think both Hibs and Aberdeen will find those draws tough.
Not impossible certainly but far from straightforward.
Pumped by Qarabag thenLimassol or Qarabağ
I actually agree as much as I dislike them , these teams such as Hibs , Aberdeen , Celtic need to start pulling their weight in Europe to keep up the co-efficientDefinitely winnable for them. I know we're not supposed to want Scottish teams to do well, but it would be a nice change of pace to see a different Scottish team in the group stages of a European competition.
Aye this is who they will play if they get beat by GalatasarayTheir admin are idiots - don’t see my to know it depends on result of Galatasaray game
What happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?
Conference League group stagesWhat happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?
I think straight into the Conference League groups?What happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?
The players/team have improved immeasurably due to our European runs and going up against varying opponents.
I recall this stage last year there were people on this board content to go out of Europe altogether in order to concentrate on the League. We showed we can do both - indeed, we played our best football during that period.
Scottish football has achieved bugger all to dismiss a European tournament.
They go into the conference leagueWhat happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?
Aye this is who they will play if they get beat by Galatasaray
It was better than the alternative. Greek sides are doing poorly in Europe so far as well. Already 2 out of 4 out.Amazed some people think Rijeka then probably PAOK is good for Hibs.
Conference groups.What happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?

Not true, they will have to play the ECL play off round vs either Tobol Kostonay (kazakhstan) or Zilina (slovakia).Conference League group stages
tough but if they put on a performance like they did against us in the cup, then they have a chance.Their admin are idiots - don’t see my to know it depends on result of Galatasaray game
They’re in the ECL play off round if they lose to Jablonec.Not true, they will have to play the ECL play off round vs either Tobol Kostonay (kazakhstan) or Zilina (slovakia).
So there is a chance that both us and them will have to play in Kazahkstan 3 days before the OF game
If they beat that Czech mob they are automatically in the conference groups mate, lose to the Czech side and they’ll have to play the PO round in conferenceNot true, they will have to play the ECL play off round vs either Tobol Kostonay (kazakhstan) or Zilina (slovakia).

They will get pumped off the Czechs anywayThat’s only if they lose to Jablonec.
He asked what happens if they beat Jablonec and lose to Az alkmaar

Absolute nonsense, no final qualifying round tie is easy. I bet you are the type who moans on the match thread if we aren't 17-0 up against hamilton after 5 minutes.Porto and Benfica are miles above all 3 teams, we didn't lose to them.
Feyenoord, Braga, Antwerp and arguably even Standard Liege are all at the same level or better.
I don't know why people are taking issue with that comment, we have beaten far better teams over two legs than Malmo, Olympiacos or Ludogrets in recent years. It should be relatively easy for us.
Two sets of people who are sexually attracted to their siblingsThe mentally challengeds are going to be in Borat land a few days before playing us, lovely.
We could well be there as wellThe mentally challengeds are going to be in Borat land a few days before playing us, lovely.
Already answered above but if they lose to Jablonec then my guess would be the board and manager get chucked on the barby.What happens to Celtic if they beat Jablonec but lose to AZ?
If Celtic lose to Jablonec then they play the winner of Tobol(Kaz) vs Zilina(Svk)
I wouldn’t be surprisedThey will get pumped off the Czechs anyway
Plus £5 mill parachute payment though mateYes, it’s roughly 15m versus 35m Davie.
Losing all of their good players though. Boadu to Monaco, Stengs to Nice, Koopmeiners and Bizot.Alkmaar will pump the mentally challengeds. They are a very, very decent side.
We get through these games is that us in or another round?
Yeah I wouldn't either. I'd have the Croatians as favourites. But if I remember correctly that wasn't the hardest one they could have got.Im not sure I’d back them to get past Rijeka. Probably 50/50.
But I hope they, Aberdeen and Celtic are all in the group stages of that tournament
