    I think they got rid of the European slot for the cup runner up, did they not?

    Yes

    Europe 2014/15
    The entry of Scottish clubs to UEFA’s club competitions for Season 2014/15 is determined by reference to the UEFA Country Ranking at the end of Season 2012/13.

    At that time, Scotland was ranked 24. This provides access for three clubs through their Scottish Professional Football League position at the end of this Season and one club through this Season’s Scottish Cup.

    As a result of that ranking, Scottish entrants to UEFA’s competitions for 2014/15 will be as follows:

    Scottish Premiership Champions
    Champions League qualifying round 2 (Champions pathway)

    Scottish Cup winners
    Europa League qualifying round 2

    Scottish Premiership runners-up
    Europa League qualifying round 2

    Scottish Premiership third place
    Europa League qualifying round 1

    In the event that the Scottish Cup winners have qualified for the Champions League, the Scottish Cup runners-up will qualify for the Europa League but will enter at qualifying round 1. If this happens, then the Scottish Premiership third place club will enter the Europa League at qualifying round 2.

    I think we all need to calm down and get through the quarter final first.

    One game at a time.

    This is for season 2014/15, will this be the same for next season 2015/16?

    100% agree. Instant ban for anyone who posts about us getting to the final or playing in europe next season because its utter nonsense at the moment. Yes we might win against Berwick or Spartans but a howler draw in the semi might await us.

    Just calm down everyone.

    It's irrelevant, cos we're only in the Quarter Finals.

If this happens, then the Scottish Premiership third place club will enter the Europa League at qualifying round 2.
    That is from last season, it applies to this season only.
    I recall reading either on a forum or news article online that the runners-up place was to be scrapped.
    I didn't hear anything since then on a date, but it might happen from next season unless someone can confirm otherwise?

    Even for a hypothetical, this thread is a bit too far ahead of itself!
    We'll probably get hammered by a Spartans/Berwick now...

    I thought there was chat of closing the loophole to ensure a Queen of the South never managed to get into Europe again...

    Clearly I'm wrong - I just have a vague impression of it being discussed a wee while back

    I think it was being discussed. I was surprised to learn we had qualified for Europe last time regardless of the outcome of the final.

    United we stand here....

    Knowing the football authorities in Scotland there will probably be nothing in writing and they'll make a decision when the time comes based on the best interests of the whole of Scottish football and not purely on which team it involves.

    Keep talking a possible cup final up. It's what football is all about. The excitement of finals and playing away in Europe. It's also make the yams jealous. But more importantly it helps to bring the feel good factor back to our club. As fans we can all dream.

    The SFA have tried to change the rule several times. Having the likes of Airdrie, Dunfermline, Queen of the South, and Gretna representing Scotland in Europe while in the second tier did not help the national coefficient.

    This was rejected repeated by UEFA who insist that either the winner or the runner-up in the Scottish Cup contest the Europa League.

    The rule has not been changed and will be changed. If Celtic win the League and the Cup, the cup runner-up will be in the Europa Cup.

    Even mentioning Hibs and the cup final at this stage of the competition is just asking for it really. Talk about tempting fate.

    It's a very favourable draw for Hibs today, but that's all.

    FFS , nowt wrong with a dream to cling to.

    No one is taking it for granted but if you can't get a sense of interest about the possibilities then you are best giving up.

    I'm not too sure that's 100% accurate. I'm well aware of the possibilities. I'll never give up on hoping to see Hibs lift this cup, having seen them lose in five Scottish Cup Finals.

    Maybe that's what makes me a wee bit cautious when it comes to Hibs and the Scottish Cup.

    We're playing either Spartans or Berwick Rangers for a place in the semi finals of the Scottish Cup, it's normal (not to mention a good sign) that people are therefore talking up our chances of a place in the final.
