    Obviously europa league qualification is something we as Celtic fans shouldn't be bothered about , but given the toughness of our pathway to the champions league this season it is sadly a very real option for us.But whats confusing me at the moment is the criteria of eligibility to take part in the competition. I've read on a few sites online , one of which is the ever reliable wikipedia lol , that qualification went to the loser of the 3rd qualifying round of the champions league , but i've also read in some tabloid papers which are also ever so reliable lol , that the loser of the 3rd qualifier is out of all european competitions altogether . . . Can anyone clear this up at all ? I've tried gettin the info from the uefa website but when i click on the regulations link it attempts to download a pdf file which as im browsing the net on my phone is about as much use to me as filip sebo on a football pitch

    No i think they have changed the rules now mate.

    No matter what happens we have Europa League to fall back onto now.

    Something Platini did to stop teams like Celtic and Rangers getting pumped out so early.

    really? thats good news as i'm feeling too optimistic about CL qualification. its gonna be hard playing a team who are midway through their season

    If we get beat by Dinamo we go into Europa League qualifiers

    If we beat Dinamo and then get beat by, say, Arsenal then we go into the Europa League Group stages

    • The losing team from each of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round ties will go into the UEFA Europa League play-offs.

    • The losing team from each of the UEFA Champions League play-off ties will go into the UEFA Europa League group stage.

    :50: We should be fine for playing in Europe at least
