I think their case was a little more than minor.

Putting us through and dumping them out would have been a fucking disgrace.
Our advantage of knowing the result we needed is not so great

Probably more than minor then but not close to ‘dumping them out being a fucking disgrace’

We live in COVID times, things have to be more fluid

Regardless the primary argument I was making was the stance of Rennes
 


The interesting thing if this is the full statement is that it doesn't seem to mention our willingness to reschedule and Rennes reluctance to.

Am genuinely unconcerned about this “decision”. It’s undoubtedly unfair to punish a team ravaged by Covid rather than the team who refused to reschedule the game, but it would have been unfair to dump Vitesse out.
It’s a shitty competition and I’d much rather we focus on our league position and domestic cups as the level of competition is much better.
Fuck UEFA though. Charlatans.
 
We’re not out because of this decision: basically we shouldn’t have been playing for our place in the last round come the final fixture. We weren’t in a group with Bayern, Real and PSG.

So we undercooked it and now have to accept we fell short. Am I bovvered? Not in the least. As justin justin says - back to Saturday games and that in the long run could be crucial
