Would it be better financially for Sligo to be seeded in the 2nd round? Gives them a better chance of having two paydays.
Best to play and advance from the 2nd round even if knocked out in the 3rd round, rather then only playing a 3rd round match?
Obviously if they could progress to the play-offs even better............
Depends who you get drawn against in the 3rd round I suppose.Quote:

Good stuff on the updates with how the seeds are going to be worked out. It's the sort of thing I'd nearly be tempted to check out to see how it's going to work how. Great to see the hard work has been done already!
0-0 after 30 minutes in that game in bosnia.
1-0 to Borac res so they are champions and Rovers are seeded
They can get one of (in order of UEFA co-eff) Bosnia, Moldova, Latvia, Hungary, Wales, Montenegro, Faroes, The North, Kazakhstan, Luxembourg, Estonia, Iceland, Malta, Azerbaijan, Macedonia, Albania, San Marino, Andorra
real mixed bag there in terms of travel.
They can meet any of the teams below (Montenegran champions not known yet afaik).
Still some tough ones in there but some very winnable ties there too.
Dacia Chisinau Mol 2.549
Pyunik Yerevan Arm 2.516
FK Borac Banja Luka Bos 2.324
Skonto Riga Lat 2.233
FC Fehérvár Hun 2.200
Bangor City Wal 2.058
CL Mon 2.025 - 2.275
HB Torshavn Far 1.783
Linfield Belfast Nir 1.699
Tobol Kustanai Kaz 1.624
F91 Dudelange * Lux 1.524
Flora Tallinn Est 1.50
Breidablik Isl 1.491
Valletta FC * Mlt 1.483
Neftchi Baku Azb 1.233
Shkendija Tetovo Mac 1.041
Skënderbeu Korçë Alb 0.774
If we're officially there, I'm hearing the Europa League qualifying 3rd round might yet be able to be played in the Showgrounds.
can someone remind me if the draw was regionalised at all last year when we got TNS? I remember some last minute discussion about it in the corresponding thread last year but cant quite remember if it was regionalised or not. If so you'd have to think that Rovers are quids in to progress. (no TNS jokes please!)Quote:

10 minutes of research later and i think that there was some sort of regionalisation.

Is it just me that would love to see a Rovers v Linfield tie?
I would love to see a repeat from the 1984 meeting to see how both sides are treated both sides of the border compared to the bad old daysQuote:
