^^ shows how tight it is. I think we need two wins for top eight.

Concur with this. That fucking Bruges result has really fucked us. However we are more than capable of winning both games but the crucial one is tomorrow night. Can’t wait and off to the station shortly to catch the train to Nice (via London and Paris).

Seems like Monaco are in dreadful form. Something like 2 wins in 11 and lost to bottom of the table Montpellier on Friday.

Agreed. There are way too many team within range who are capable of two wins to overtake us...and they are some major players. Can't afford to give them the chance.

Its in our hands, but Percy is right, it will be tighter than a bull's arsehole during fly season.

We just need to do our job and let everyone else worry. Get the three points in the first match of the round and the pressure goes on everyone else around us. Lose or draw and they get more of a leeway.

Any sign of Purslow or General Krulak?

I have us in 5th. Though I also did it with a win tomorrow night and a draw versus Celtic. That saw us finish 8th. UTV

Does anyone know if you finish in the top 8 for next phase do you have the advantage of 2nd leg  at home? Or just that you avoid a play off game?

Home leg advantage and plays the winner of certain matches. There is a weird seeding system where it could be one of two opponents drawn depending on position. So 9th and 10th are pulled against 23rd and 24th, and then the winners of those two matches will be drawn against 5th/6th placed teams.
