Thanks - may not get them on four aways last year, but will see.

So frustrating the club announce this late.

To be fair, this would be on Feyenoord, not us.

There was a post doing the rounds on social media saying  neither UEFA or Feyenoord knew why there was a delay in Villa fans being informed of the size of allocation.

Always more than you think. There's only 250~ of us with full cards apparently.

BREAKING: UEFA’s executive committee is expected to vote on Tuesday on whether to suspend Israel’s national team and clubs from all European competitions.

Qatar is reportedly leading a major push to bring the motion to a vote, pressuring UEFA members over the past week to secure a majority.

Only two or three countries currently oppose the move, with most favoring Israel’s removal.

If a club is disqualified or for any reason withdraws from the competition before all its matches in the league phase have been played, the results of all its matches played until that moment remain valid. A calculation of points will need to take place upon completion of the league phase to take the cancelled matches into account. Any club that has not been able to play its scheduled match against a disqualified/withdrawn club is awarded the average number of points earned by all clubs in its same seeding pot against the clubs in the same pot as that disqualified/withdrawn club in home matches, if the affected club was due to play at home, or in away matches if the affected club was due to play away. The league phase points of all matches that have been played, including the points obtained by clubs in matches involving the disqualified/withdrawn club before their disqualification/withdrawal are not adjusted in any way, and all taken into account for the average points calculation

There was I thinking it might be our only three goal win of the season.

This will make the qualification permutations fun come January.

So it did matter which pot we were in after all! So we could end up with about 2.17 points for that game?

[cdbearsfan]

Just checked and they were second seeds, so might not be a massive average there. Will just have to win our other games, and at least should be fresher for Bournemouth game. Possibly worth missing out on a possible 1.3 or so points depending on how we do, for the extra rest.

And to avoid the fuss that would be caused by the protests / counter-protests that would inevitably happen.

[cdbearsfan]

Indeed. Feels like the idiots could have taken the decision a lot earlier, and it seems morally dubious that a few Qataris dying* is considered worthy of action whereas tens of thousands of Palestinians being murdered wasn't, but better late than never, I suppose.

* I am not suggesting that a few Qataris dying isn't A Bad Thing.

This week's top seeds at home to second seeds match (UK time):

Wednesday 8pm
Dinamo Zagreb vs Fenerbahçe

Sneaked in for a Feyenoord ticket at the opening of second tier as I only have 5 home from CL last season.
