Europa League Group Stage Wrap-up!
The Europa League Group Stage wrapped up yesterday evening (wot - you missed it!). To be honest, I don't give a toss about the EL until it hits the knock-out stages in the spring - I just can't be fussed. But here are the 24 sides that have advanced:
Group A:
1. Molde
2. Fenerbahce
Group B:
1. Liverpool
2. FC Sion
Group C:
1. Krasnador
2. Dortmund
Group D:
1. Napoli
2. Mitjylland
Group E:
1. Rapid Vienna
2. Villareal
Group F:
1. Braga
2. Marseille
Group G:
1. Lazio
2. St. Etienne
Group H:
1. Locomotiv Moscow
2. Sporting Lisbon
Group I:
1. FC Basel
2. Fiorentina
Group J:
1. Spurs
2. Anderlecht
Group K:
1. Schalke
2. Sparta Prague
Group L:
1. Athletic Club
2. Augsburg
Add to that list, the 8 clubs who came third in their Champions League group and you've got the (snooze....) 32 clubs still left in the Europa League:
1. Shakhtar
2. Man Utd
3. Galatasaray
4. Sevilla
5. Leverkusen
6. Olympiacos
7. Porto
8. Valencia
I'll be totting these up and adding them to the PPP standings for next week.

Sorry mate , but it's 32 teams remaining where 16 will be seeded and 16 will not. You will be delighted to know that all three Prem clubs are seeded because Pool and the Spuds won their group while United were one of the four best third place teams that parachuted from the CL. Sevilla have a chance to defend their beloved EL , but will not be seeded due to their CL record. Molde Cheese winning Group A says it all.
My mistake, mate. I was looking quickly at the UEFA site for the EL and must have got the figures for the Group Stage rather than the Knock-out stages. I'll make that correction. Thanks for pointing it out.
Btw, all of us are still in the EL stakes; that is, apart from WHR, who made the mistake of backing the Romanian side Astra who knocked out his beloved West Ham in the EL playoffs last summer. Better luck next season, Johnno!
