No. We'd need to win. The rules changed a few years ago.

I still find it hard to believe we won the thing, as I automatically thought, how did we get in Europe last year if only the winners got in!! 😚

Who would get that European place then if Celtic won it? 4th place in Spl

Yes.
Since Sevco and Aberdeen are both likely to finish second and third then the 4th placed club will be in Europe next season unless we win it again.
I really hope Hearts finish 4th. :greengrin

Hope they finish 11th or 12th. Is that even possible. :dunno:
Dont want them to win another single point this season.
IN CATHRO WE TRUST :not worth

Imagine the scenes on Kickback though if they finish 4th and are almost guaranteed to be in the Europa League next season and then we come along and win the Scottish Cup for the second year in a row and they have to spend their pre-season in Skegness. :greengrin

That's what I'm thinking too. It would be the most beautiful ending to a season, well since last season I guess [emoji5]

Might the European spots possibly depend on how the UEFA regulations on financial fair play apply to The Sevco International Zombie Club?

Us winning the Cup again would almost fall by the wayside because we are completely sticking it up them (if that's actually any more possible after pumping them out the Cup two years in succession)
I like your thinking and I'm fully onboard :agree:

Quite right too. Some of the runners up who qualified in the past were, quite frankly, embarrassing!
