i imagine youve also paid for the euro qualifiers too

Paul, So if I have it right then its a pre-qualifying tournament which leads into a normal qualifying tournament.

And go into a straight knockout tournament against the other 3 group b winners next summer for a direct place at the euros without the need to qualify.
If you finish second you get a place in pot 2 for the main qualifying draw
If you finish third you get relegated and start the next nations league in group c against teams like scotland instead of Denmark which would give you a better chance to qualify.

Don't we get auto qualification if we get promoted then win that group ?

if we win this group of 3 we win promotion to league A and progress to play offs with the other 3 minigroup winners from league B..the play offs take place AFTER the normal EURO qualifiers...should we have already qualified through normal qualifiers we drop out of the play offs but are promoted to league A never the less..

Not forgetting that in the event of a tied position , the team whose home ground is nearest the equator goes through, which is of course why Wales have opted for the rugby stadium rather than CC stadium, which gives them a theoretical advantage if it goes to the so called "Napier Clause".

Its like the champions league. Win the group then it's a knockout. Win the entire tournament you go to the euros.

four leagues OF 12 A,B,C,D.......based on uefa rankings......which put us in the 2nd tier B......each league was split into 4 mini groups of 3....win the group you get promoted along with the other 3 minigroup winners...finish 2nd remain in 2nd tier...finish bottom you get relegated to the league C below along with the other 3 bottom finishers from the other 3 minigroup ..
this bit in itself i think is quite straight forward.

I kind of get that but assuming we win the league we are currently in and we move to League A, which of the leagues do we go into (A1, A2 A3 or A4) or re the leagues re drawn again after the promotion and relegation?

it will be drawn.....the groups although numbered are not in order..eg group 1 is no better than group 4.
the long term advantage of winning the group and being promoted is that we will then become a bag 1 nation for euro 2024...
