    Still cannot believe I’ve just watched a European quarter final draw in which I had a genuine interest, because our club was involved. I’ll keep enjoying the ride until I wake up!

    Just out of interest - what do our exploits to to our European coefficient? Will this year add a big lump or is it rather neglectable?

    We have acquired a coefficient of 14 points this season. We entered the Europa on the National Coefficient of 20.113.

    The coefficient of a club is calculated by adding the total number of points it obtains in a given season in the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Europa Conference League.

    A club's five-season coefficient is the cumulative total of the previous five seasons' coefficients, or 20% of its association's five-season association coefficient, whichever is higher.

    Points awarded each season are in accordance with the relevant competition regulations for that specific season, so the following apply only to the awarding of points in the 2021/22 season.

    Points are awarded as follows:

    UEFA Champions League points
    2 – All wins from group stage onwards
    1 – All draws from group stage onwards
    4 – Group stage bonus participation
    4 – Round of 16 bonus participation
    1 – Each round clubs reach from the round of 16

    Points are not awarded for elimination in qualifying, since those clubs move to the UEFA Europa League and may be awarded points for participation in that competition or the UEFA Conference League.

    UEFA Europa League points
    2 – All wins from group stage onwards (except knockout round play-offs)
    1 – All draws from group stage onwards (except knockout round play-offs)
    4 – Group winners
    2 – Group runners-up
    1 – Each round clubs reach from the round of 16

    All teams are guaranteed a minimum 3 points in the UEFA Europa League group stage (not added to points actually obtained). Points are not awarded for elimination in qualifying, since those clubs move to the UEFA Europa Conference League and may be awarded points for participation in that competition.

    Joe Cole is doing the draw

    Bad omen! Didn't a Sevilla great do the last draw? And now look where Sevilla are. 🀐
    Luckily Joe Cole isnt a West Ham great! He was a lad with massive promise who never quite fulfilled the hype and then quickly jumped ship to Chelsea! Def not a great for me
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    Maybe a bit harsh Baz. Joe does seem to be West Ham as opposed to the likes of Rio and Frank who clearly didn't see themselves as West Ham after moving. I seem to recall reading about Joe at Chelsea and one player remarking that as soon as he got back in the dressing room after the final whistle he wanted to find out how West Ham got on.

    I agree he didn't realise his potential with us but he may well have done had we not got relegated as someone of his talent and value was never going to play Championship football. He played 126 times for us and came up through the academy, he may not have achieved his potential with us but when I think of great players we have been lucky to see in a West Ham shirt Joe Cole is definitely one of them.

    I'm not knocking Joe and I agree he's 'West Ham'. At the time I just didnt want the Seville great, West Ham great to jinx us ;)

    I totally appreciate the difference between him, Rio Ferdinand and Frank Lampard.

    I can understand that Frank isn't (because of what happened with his Dad and Harry plus he was not treated well by the crowds)

    However, Rio Ferdinands allegiance with Man Utd actually sickens me considering where he comes from. Then again, I dont resonate particularly well with people who are thick or have voices that make then sound so, or both :)
