A team from Belarus doing a team from Russia a favour? Surely not!paulie8290 said:

Bloody hell. I thought that first leg result was an outlier, but this is something else.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Quiet night at Zenit.
4-0 down from the first leg.
Go 2-0 up then have a man sent off.
Manage to get it to 4-0 and go to extra time.
Concede in the first period so need 2 more.
Score 4 in the second half of extra time to win 8-1!
Can't imagine there will be any significant betting patterns around these two ties, nosirree!
115th minute and a red card for Minsk
120th minute
Then scored again in injury time
Very suspicious4 -
Is there was anything dodgy about the game then Zenit would not have had a man sent off at only 2-0.paulie8290 said:

Rangers arent doing too badly
Been down to 9men in Russia since the 66th minute yet still 2-1 up on agg... One goal from Ufa with mins left though will send it to Extra Time0 -
Well Rangers are into the Group Stages, somehow have survived despite Ufa having a disallowed goal in the 92nd minuteForeverAddickted said:Rangers arent doing too badly

Burnley OUT

Best thing that could happen for Burnley sadly. They don’t need a pile of extra games. Concentrate on the league. Rangers and Celtic can have a bit of fun with it.2

Just don't get this mentality. If we were ever in that situation I'd be desperate for more games, memorable away trips and a bit of a run. Could be your best days as a fan and something to stick out in the history books for the club.Sillybilly said:Best thing that could happen for Burnley sadly. They don’t need a pile of extra games.

Honestly don't know why keeping players fit to maintain a place in the 8th-17th Premier League bore zone is so precious to some people.9 -

I agree with you, but TBF he said "sadly". It's unfortunate that English fans think this way, but do not ask themselves why their clubs, uniquely in Europe, have to participate in two domestic cups, one so useless that it can only be sponsored by an energy drink that isn't even on the English market.2 -
Got it in one. I said “sadly” for precisely the reasons @Neal Heaney said. It’s a shame but now that Burnley are on the Premier League bus, they better make sure they stay on. I used to ask myself when we were in the championship why I kept going as the ultimate goal was to get to the Premier league, something I have grown to dislike enormously in the last few years.PragueAddick said:Neil Heaney said:

I get it 100% and agree, What is the point on a Europe trip if you could struggle for relegation? Burnley were in great danger this season and the longer they are in Europe the harder it would be, their squad is too small. Beginning of the season i thought they my be near the bottom due to 'europe affect', but should be ok as out early now.Neil Heaney said:

As a fan they should understand this really, although its a fantastic achievement and you would like to think they should go for it. Similar to Charlton in the cups these days, we might love a cup run but its not priority.0 -
Exactly, when you're older you want to tell your grandkids about trophies won or some great away trips you had in Europe, no one is going to say "remember that season we finished 12th"Neil Heaney said:

I see your points, however if it was a choice of fight relegation/ with a Europa run, or safe mid table finish / go out early? what would you prefer, still the same?Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Yes if it were Charlton it would be nice to have a run in Europe but i would prefer the guarantee that Premiership offers, its worth alot more in the short term to the club.
Europa is only really worth it if you can go far and chance of winning it , Arsenal/Man U. Otherwise its a poor mans Europe0 -
Concentrate on the league and with a bit of luck and a few good results you might nick 7th and get a spot in the Europa League.0

Bit of a poor result for English Football Burnley going out to the 3rd best team in Greece. Also agree with the people who don't understand why teams concentrate on the league rather than Europe. What I would give to see Charlton in Europe once never mind make the groups. That's what fans of clubs like ourselves and Burnley dream of surely?1

a euro trip is something a club of burnleys stature were only likely to get 1 crack at and its shit for the fans - as a fan i would take a euro tour and trying to win it over premier league safety every time.1

The early start for teams like Burnley who have to play in the early rounds must be a real issue, especially in a World Cup year. They've played 6 European matches this season before Arsenal and Chelsea join0

i wonder if arsenal are going to walk it again like last season wankers0
-
Good to see that UEFA are considering adding a third European competition to run alongside the Champions and Europa Leagues
Wonder if they've thought about it being for the Domestic Cup winners, could call it something like the Cup Winners Cup5 -
Blimey that's a bit revolutionary, where did you get that idea from!!!!
