So we're playing next week right? When's the draw?

Kemal · 15-02-2006, 13:08

We're still awaiting the cup result of Ampleksus for confirmation on the final amount of participants, draw should take place tonight I suppose. I could draw 4 groups of 7 (with the teams not having a game each week playing intergroup matches, goal difference counting) but I'm a bit at a loss for getting the fixtures arranged, though.

I don't know how to easily create those (I tried some applications last season and failed) so if anyone else could do that it would be greatly appreciated.

I really am quite against a 4 groups of 7 setup.

Just thought I'd say that now.

Shabbaman · 15-02-2006, 13:59

We could make 7 groups of 4 Or make 4 groups of 5 and 2 groups of 4 and use the same rules for different group sizes as the european qualifier groups.

Next wekk, there's no national cup match, so anyone can join already.

Kemal · 15-02-2006, 14:12

I'm okay with any group size or rules, but would prefer to play as much different opponents as possible.

Btw, we are definitely playing with 28 teams now, as Ampleksus won the cup tie.

Shabbaman · 15-02-2006, 14:17

We could play with two group phases like in the Champions League

Kingreno · 15-02-2006, 21:02

So...when's the draw? I am asking as I will not have internetfrom Friday till Mondaymorning at work. This means that whoever I am playing will have to keep his nerves down and wait till monday till I can accept the challlenge...

Going to draw a 7 groups of 4 teams format, probably to be playing home and away matches. It's not ideal but anything else ruins the cup and uses artificial solutions. 6 games total will be played in the groups, 8 best teams in group stages (all no. 1s and one number 2) will go through to the QF, next 8 best will play for 9 to 16 etc.

Last 4 teams to play a league format for last 4 places. Going to make the draw now, but a bit short on time so I'm not updating live, I'm afraid. Expect the groups to be up within 30 mins.

I want a redraw!

My opponents are much too strong!

Why would a solution with a double league phase ruin or be artificial?
At least we could play different teams then (and maybe weaker ones...

)

But the other would also be OK for me.
