watch out for Bosnia, Zeljeznicar won both legs of their 2nd round tie (not bad for an unseeded team in the 1st round!) next they'll play Newcastle but are guaranteed a UEFA Cup 1st round spot at worst!

Yes because those coefficients have been decided already i.e. the ones at the end of last season's Euro Cups will be used for next season's this is because countries with summer seasons have to know by the end of that season how many clubs qualify for each competition (eg the Norwegian league finishes in October but they can't be waiting until May to find out how many CL places they have etc. so last May's co-efficients are used)
Comprende huh?

well following that logic the rankings above be for summer 2004 ;)
The eL still has a cushion of a couple of placings for seeding purposes.
