I’ll be in the Costa del Sol so that would just be perfect!
Gibraltar round 1 please. Week in Marbella and just an hour through to Gibraltar
It’s vital we do well this year.
4 sellouts for our Qualifiers at home and then the 3 match package for the group stage is massive when you add all that up.
Folk saying chuck the Europa League - we can’t, we’re basically printing money if we make it to the group stage.
We get prize money for each qualifiying round, prize money for wins and draws in the group and add that onto 7 sellouts at Ibrox.
That’s astronomical for us.
Absolutely but it might not be as easy to qualify as last year. We got lucky with pretty much every draw. One thing is we will have more settled team and a more balanced squad so should be able to handle the extra games better.It’s vital we do well this year.

If we can avoid the ref that did the game in Russia, I’m cautiously optimistic we can progress
We enter in the 1st qualifying round along with the two other Scottish representatives. The draw for both the 1st and 2nd rounds is either on June 18 or 19 and:
We are confirmed as being seeded in both the first and second qualifying rounds.
- 1st round ties will be played on July 11 and July 18
- 2nd round ties on July 25 and August 1
The draw for round 3 takes place on July 22 with ties played on August 8 and August 15, with the 4th round draw on August 5 and ties played on August 22 and August 29.
If we make it that far we won't be seeded in round 3 or 4, but we could 'steal' a seeding for the 4th round by beating a seeded team in round 3 (as we did with Maribor last year).

Can't believe the Surrender mentality I read from some posters on here. But I guess that's what the past few years have done to a lot of our fans
Why should we fear anyone we will face in Europe this year? We went undefeated at home last year in the competition and picked up some wins and great draws away from home.
Teams that draw us should be the ones shitting themselves
We start in the 2nd round since we finished 2nd.
Nice extra 2 weeks off

If the Edinburgh club win, then they would go into the second qualifying round of the Europa League with Rangers and whoever finishes third between Kilmarnock and Aberdeen going into the first round. Rangers in Europa League action this season(Image: SNS Group) That would leave Rangers playing their first Europa League game on July 11. However, if Celtic win the Scottish Cup then the last Europa League place would go to the team who finishes fourth in the league. That means Rangers would be the highest-ranked Scottish team to enter and would get into the second round. "
So is this pish or not?
Daily record? Yes.
Rapid finished in the relegation half of the split so I doubt they are confirmed as having qualified yet. Think they play off against Sturm Graz to see who gets the spotFurther updated. A few familiar faces in round 1 including Progres and Shkupi, and if we make it to round 3 the likes of Roma, Eintracht and Wolves lie in wait - although so too do Spartak and Rapid.

Would gladly take Austria Wien - I’m guessing they’d be seeded and they aren’t very good either
We weren’t lucky,we deserved to be there.I can't see us being as lucky in the draws as we were last year. Couldn't have fallen any better for us really.
