As a result, the following changes to the default allocation system were made to compensate for the vacant title holder spot in the group stage:
The domestic cup winners of associations 16 and 17 (Scotland and Bulgaria) are moved from the third qualifying round to the play-off round.
The domestic cup winners of associations 28 and 29 (Belarus and Republic of Ireland) are promoted from the second qualifying round to the third qualifying round.
The domestic cup winners of associations 52 and 53 (Malta and San Marino) and the domestic league runners-up of associations 33 and 34 (Latvia and Moldova) are promoted from the first qualifying round to the second qualifying round.

Its down to a couple of things. What round a team enters is down to the accession list;Quote:

Whether they’re seeded or not is down to their individual seeds;

So while Rovers were seeded in the CL qualifiers, Sligo wouldn’t have been.
Likewise even though Pats entered the Europa League in the 1st round, they were still seeded in the 2nd round
Best of luck to Rovers. Hope they can finish the job. Looks like they sent a good crowd out.
Some crowd out there for Rovers, fair play!
any link?im at work so one that is work friendly too if possible!
it let me watch that add for 45 seconds and then said broadcast is offline.
The broadcast is definitely online, so maybe work-issues..
Jaysus, Flora are fooking terrible!
The Star quoting figures? There's a surprise. They've been quoting how much LOI clubs stand to make from European games since 2004. The amount received is usually quite different.Quote:

They're rubbish but Rovers need to put their foot on it and get a couple of goals. Billy Dennehy's on the wrong wing.Quote:

Rovers are very comfortable and are clearly the better side, but need a goal when on top. The better side doesn't necessarily go through. A deflection, another dodgy penalty, og, offside, wonder strike...
I thought Flora would be better than this. Rovers are obviously far superior but Flora have a couple of players who can create chances from scraps. I don't think they have a hope of getting 2 goals, but they could get one and force it to go the distance.
Wow see those hot Estonian chicks outside the tunnel? Now, now, Chris Turner...
still 0-0?
