Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? With Juve going through tonight we've all but lost our chance of getting into pot 2 due to a non-league winning CL winner. Now heavily relying on Napoli not to win the EL, since the other options are extremely unlikely.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? are you high? We're 3 points ahead of Napoli. 3.043 to be exact. Not 3,000. Napoli get 2 points per win, so if they win the EL they're certainly above us. United have 2.7142 points this season (not 2000) because they're English. Each...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Yep. Fingers crossed Rafa fucks it up.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Changed that rule this year. Countries can have 5 teams in the CL.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? No, read the first post. Pot system has changed so that the top pot now hosts the winners of the 8 top leagues (or 7 + CL winner if CL winner doesn't win their league). Which means Zenit and PSV will go above us in the pots, even though...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? That shouldn't affect out pot though. Sevilla are currently 12 points behind - no way they'll catch us up. Napoli are only 3 behind - which is why they'll go ahead of us if they win the europa league. That's the worry. Very true, but...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Thought I'd provide a brief update as we should have a clearer picture of how things stand now. Here's where we were previously... So, 2) has all but happened, especially with Lyon 2-0 down as I type. Good. 3) is unlikely. Valencia...

All going to plan so far!

ding ding ding we have a winner. No doubt the media will pick up on it as Southampton paying out of their own pocket due to city wanting ridiculous money, ignoring the fact that we (along with every other club) have spent their allocation in drips and drabs throughout the season.

Mine would go: 1) Championship 2) FA cup 3) Premiership 4) Europa League 5) Champions League 6) League cup . . . . infinity) Charity Shield I prefer division one (championship) as a league because it's so unpredictable. I put a bet on Wigan going up in August. Never in a million years would I...

Brentford

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? ... that ain't how football works mate. Being "better than Manure and Arsenal in the long run" has hardly helped us gain more points over them in the last 3 months has it?!

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Would certainly help us out that's for sure. I'd be surprised if it's not us in fourth place come end of May though.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? That's exactly my point....they will overtake us if the win the EL based on the current points. They have 22.2 points so far this season, due to rise by between 5 and 10 (see my previous post) if they win the thing. Which means they will...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Sorry mate, think you're wrong there: "UEFA Europa League points system First qualifying round elimination – 0.25 points Second qualifying round elimination – 0.5 points Third qualifying round elimination – 1 point Play-off...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? La liga place. The extra berths reserved for CL and EL winners are only if they don't qualify through the usual means. So Valencia would miss out, and we'd all be happy.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? With all due respect, I don't quite get why you say my post is not quite right and then find exactly the same conclusions as me... i.e., we are 17th in the seedings, but shalke and dortmund missing out means we need one of - Barca/Real...

Re: Should City Follow West Ham and Reduce Season Ticket Pri Most definitely. Anyone with access to the ground map mind telling us how many 'cheap' seats are remaining? It's going to be a mad scramble when the lines open for those on the waiting list.

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? Good Question. As far as I'm aware, Sevilla will gain a fifth champions league spot for Spain, since the remaining CL teams have all pretty much qualified: "The winners of the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League and 2014–15 UEFA Europa League...

Re: Champions League 2015/16 seedings - City in pot 2/3? He's talking absolute shite there then. From his second point - how can "Eng, Ger, Ita, Fra, Spa, Por, Rus, Ukr to be top seeds, and from Ned if CL winner also domestic champ" be true when that's nine countries he's listed. He's also got...
