Guys we can dress it up as much as we like, but we are lucky to be in the knockout stage. Things went our way, but the truth is we were 2nd best last night at home even though we have been playing well recently. Call it a bonus to be in the next stage, but if we're honest then we'll see that European competitions are just a step ahead of us. Let's not lose our focus on the league, that's our biggest challenge. HH.

It's sometimes being better lucky than good. Yes Rosenberg did us a favour and yes Strasbourg were much better than us last night, but were overdue a rub of the green in Europe. We qualified on merit, we obtained more points than the other two teams and that's all that matters.
We were up against an extremely well organised side last night and to get a maximum 18 points from the group is highly impressive. Hopefully we can look at them and learn. They were excellent. Anyway let's enjoy the moment. European football after Crimbo is what our illustrious manager strives for at the start of the season. He has delivered. Hail hail Bhoys and Ghirls.

More points than 3rd placed team means we qualify. if unhappy go watch sebco and see them crash out.

We were 2nd best to the best team in the group, and finished with more points than the other 2 teams in the group. don't see any luck involved, we were just beaten by the better team last night.

Bob, you can dress it up whatever way you like. We’ve got 9 points, Leipzig have got 7. We qualify, no luck involved.
