geordieshandy 0 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 How are Gretna seeded if they've never been in Europe before? Is it just because their Scottish? 165218[/snapback] Yeah, it's based on how well the national team does and how well other teams from that country do as well as your own success. So compared to the other teams in the qualifiers, they have a fairly good coefficient, in terms of the competition proper, they are fairly low down and aren't seeded for the full cup, just the qualifier.
