Six pots is too much for only 37 countries (well, actually 28 minus big-5, Denmark and Norway, Sweden and Israel that have already been allocated). Five pots should be enough.

I completely understand why Norway and Sweden were pre-allocated into different semis, and why Norway and Denmark were last year, but surely this is a solution to a problem that seems mainly confined to Scandinavia. Like what if they did this in 2012, would they split Georgia and Russia? Even though Turkish people would mob a contest held in Azerbaijan, how would they factor in Turkey? Or what if Serbia won last year, who would be split? There's a choice of Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, maybe Macedonia. And if Ireland or San Marino won, would they split it at all? I mean our only real neighbour is in the Big 5, as is San Marino's. Or if Switzerland or Belgium won, they both have Big 5 countries surrounding them, apart from Austria and Netherlands of course. It's a bit crazy tbh!

Of course, they didn't know in which pot to place Malta when they put us with Romania and Moldova!

Why didn't they stick us in the same pot with Azerbaijan? :lol:

I assume you're one of the 'Left Overs' country. :lol: That don't really fit into any semi-final block. You should of really gone into pot 5 with 4 of the other left overs countries :p but that would of created an undesirable pot of 3.

I feel left out I can't do one of those fancy 'best case scenario' things for the UK D: GOD SAKE BBC! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO RICH AND BUY YOUR WAY TO THE FINAL?

Also what time is the draw?

So:
Macedonia
Montenegro
Slovenia
Latvia
Lithuania
Ukraine
Belarus
Georgia
Belgium
Netherlands
Malta
Portugal or Moldova
Austria
San Marino
Sweden
-----
Italy
Germany
Denmark

One can only hope! :lol:

It's indeed a terrible time. Since it's my lunch time I think I'll miss the first minutes too. I hope they have some useless act/vide/talking to start :D
