Pot Update
Hungary qualified tonight and with that result Ireland (if they qualify - 8/13 on Paddy Power) will be in Pot 4 for the EURO 2016 Group Stage draw. We will face three teams theoretically superior.
So how will the Pots look if Ireland do qualify. Let's make the assumption that both Ukraine and Sweden who are ahead in their ties also qualify.
Pot 1
France (host)
Germany
Spain
England
Portugal
Belgium
Pot 2
Italy
Russia
Switzerland
Austria
Croatia
Ukraine *
Pot 3
Czech Republic
Sweden **
Poland
Romania
Slovakia
Hungary
Pot 4
Turkey
Ireland ***
Iceland
Wales
Albania
N. Ireland
* If Slovenia qualify then they join Pot 4. Turkey are promoted to Pot 3 and Czech are promoted to Pot 2.
** If Denmark qualify ahead of Sweden it won't change anything - they will slot into Pot 3 in the swedes place.
*** If Bosnia qualify instead of Ireland then our hearts will break.
