    If Sion beat us and then got kicked out by UEFA and Rangers beat Maribor and got kicked out too because of Bocanegra?

    Not funny at all wishing us to be kicked out and would affect our joint co-efficeny possibly to the point of no automatic entry to CL next season like it or not we both need to do well in Europe

    Incorrect.

    It wouldn't affect our coefficient points because rather than Celtic going out (and failing to get coefficient points), they would be reinstated winning the points that Rangers would lose.

    Besides, it would be funny as ****. <ok>

    Ok I'll remember that when you're complaining when you have been knocked out, failing yet AGAIN to get SCOTLAND ANY Co-Eff points <doh>

    Exactly, it happened in a qualifier a few years back I remember and they got a replacement side to play the fixture, next best placed I think?

    Also I think you fail to understand how Co-Eff points work The more the better and If a country that had 3 teams in the Europa and has one left after 1 round it would damage Scotland a lot

    Of course it will be Celtic to go through , playing players not allowed affected the tie

    Good mature post and people wonder why our Co-efficent is getting worse , don't get me wrong I love to see Celtic lose but in Europe I would rather they did well as it can benefit us as well, so maybe a few fans on here need to look up Co-Efficency and what it means to Scottish Football as a whole.
    For instance a good CE would have saved you from the embarassing double exit last season.

    The coefficent points also include the national team though which is one of the big reasons we have lost the extra place

    Yes a lot of damage was done to us in those Vogts years when we plummeted from 14th in the world at 1 stage to 66th terrible.....................on the same note look at these examples of Ineligible players and what happened looked into it and it seems UEFA can make it up as they go along:

    In my role as FAREs top lip-reader and interpreter for the deaf , I have just submitted a report to UEFA to say that rangers fielded an inelligible player who appeared to be singing " The Billy Boys " while on the pitch.

    The first is about a player out of contract! Though see comment from Leeds fan about how they were awarded a 3-0 victory previously for an opposition team fielding an ineligible player.

    The second proves what the Leeds fan said.

    The third could be deemed as an error & abit harsh to do more considering he did notinfluence the game in the 3 minutes he played!

    All are different to having a transfer ban imposed by the governing body and still signing & playing 5 players that you shouldn't have signed!

    3-0 default seems to be the rule & FIFA will throw the book at them for the cheek of it
