Europa League & Europa League 2

[Begbie79]

Does anyone know if we still qualify for Europe if we were to lose in the Scottish Cup Final to a team that's already qualified for the Europa League or Champions League.

Also, Is it next season the new Europa League 2 starts?

I'm 99% sure league position takes precedence over Cup runners up these days, and rightly so tbf.

Yeah, we were the last team in Scotland to benefit before Uefa changed the rules

I think we were the last ones to benefit from the previous rule in 2013. Obviously we went on a magnificient run in the following years' Europa League so it was well worth it 😂
