It looks as though it will be Tuesday before we know if Motherwell will have made the Europa League through the Fair Play route....

The SFA released a statement today saying, "We will aim to announce who has secured the extra Europa League place on Tuesday afternoon.

WThe results are based on delegate reports which we will receive, collate and calculate on Tuesday morning. As it stands, it is too close to call - with Motherwell and St Mirren in pole position.

"A reminder that the criteria used to calculate the Fair Play League is:

Red/Yellow Cards
Positive Play
Respect Towards Opponents
Respect Towards Officials
Behaviour of Team Officials
Behaviour of Support"

This seems a bit unfair to both clubs as it will mean they don't have long to plan their close/pre-season activities.

Personally I am not getting too ecited about this as the early stages will be against crap teams from crap locations and could cost us a lot of money if we don't progress.
