Time to get my head around the new format! Is it the same as Europa?
The Champions League.

Isn’t there some weird algorithm though? Past performances come into play? Playing some teams at home, but not away?
Make it make sense!

6 English teams in next season's competition out of 36. Presume England's share of the pot is divvied up 6 ways
That said, the new format is great. Thoroughly enjoyed Celtic's campaign this year and relative to our overall income we made a sh#11tload of money.
Have to try and get back in next season's competition..If we do fair chance we're playing one of the English teams.

They've got rid of picking balls out to save time and "a computer" Florentino Perez does it and just publishes the fixtures.

How on earth is this club going to be ready for Champions League football next season?
1. the manager? Does he stay or go? I would vote that he goes. Seventeenth spot in the Premiership, one place above relegation, is a totally abysmal performance over a season.
2. Winning the Europa was an achievement, yes. But we rode our luck throughout the match, and but for Micky VDV's stunning acrobatic block, we might not have won at all.
3. The squad? Needs a complete overhaul from the shakey goalkeeper on out. Who would you keep from the current squad?
I can think of 6 players from the old bunch I would keep and maybe 2 more for the bench, and 2 or 3 of the new crop that have feature in first team matches.
Whoever the manager is, and maybe Paraticci as director of Footy, they have a lot of work to do.
