Re: Euro Qualification
Because they fixate on the top 6 or the top 7 in league placings rather than the simple formula that mr Molloy quoted.

Re: Euro Qualification
That could be the 1st 5th 9th and 11th (to pick an extreme case) with the 2nd 3rd and 4th making it also.
Top 5 are all that are mathematically guaranteed a spot in the Chumps cup.

I think he was talking about the seedings for the ERCC draw - which are also not confusing once you understand them!!johng wrote:That could be the 1st 5th 9th and 11th (to pick an extreme case) with the 2nd 3rd and 4th making it also.

Nope, I'm just yanking your chain Xanthippe, sorry. I'll get you a pint if I ever see you down the cherry tree

Sorry you are correct.

That's what I meant - finish 7th but ahead of the second team from all of : Wales, Scotland and Italyjohng wrote:No. They have to finish ahead of the 2nd place in ALL OTHER COUNTRIES. Not ANOTHER country.The Doc wrote:I think all it takes is that 4th Irish team needs to finish ahead of the second team from another country. 7th would be ok
The only way you could do that in 7th place would be if ALL 4 COUNTRIES had a team ahead of you.
I like your right leg. A lovely leg for the role.
I've got nothing against your right leg.
The trouble is ... neither have you

That's because Socrates's wife would give out at any idiotic name calling (and unfortunately not bring an idiot - literally - was Socrates's downfall).Oldschoolsocks wrote:hey guys, great to and fro communication, I'm not saying Socrates would be proud, but reading a thread where nobody has yet been called an idiot is strangely refreshing.

Thank you 433 - but it appears you may have put me a pedestal only for me to tumble spectacularly to the ground.
