I agree with you but i would swap bolton for spurs as its more of a glamour tie and would also get more coverage down south,added to the fact that i would love to go to whitehart lane.

Let`s meet up again with our German friends Bayern at home so I can sample a little of what went on 20 plus years ago.  Then a nice trip to Bolton because family live two miles and wouldn`t need accomodation!  Fiorentina the week after so we can pit our wits against a team who represent the World Champions then finally Copenhagen so while I`m in the country can use it as an excuse to nip into Odense and see the birth place of Danish maestro Hans Christian Anderson!

 

Don`t ask for much eh?  Dnipro at home was my first ever European tie in 16 years as a fan and I would love to follow the Dandies abroad at some point in my life as well as cheering them on in a Hampden Cup Final win or lose.  Sadly money is at a premium with me at the moment what with my book starting to take shape but I`m still young at 27 and are sure they`ll be plenty more magical nights ahead.  I think the best thing about this success is that the best team in the world are back where they firmly belong. I`m chuffed for some of the older (by that I mean in terms of loyalty to the club not age!) members of the squad who when they look back on their careers will have an array of fantastic memories at a club who deserve all the recognition they get.

 

I want to say The Red and White Barmy Army are a credit to the Scottish scene.  It`s been an honour and a privelige to experience what I have in the last few seasons.  You`ve given me some of the most memorable times of my life.  For me that`s what football`s all about.  The taking part not the winning.  Victory on a Saturday afternoon is an added bonus.  Hope this comes across if any of you purchase my short stories collection.

 

Take Care Folks!

Bayern at home for the TV money

 

Copenhagen away since I get free accomodation... But I doubt this will happen because it's such a good tie :(

 

Can't make two away games (work), but Spurs seems to be favoured by others so that works for me.

 

I'm honostly not sure which team would be the easiest out of pot 3, but I'd like a match that wouldn't leave us on potentially 0 points.

When the draw concludes and there are 8 groups of 5 teams, a computer draw will take place to determine the fixture schedule with factors such as stadium clashes and climatic conditions (it is not possible to play in some northern countries in mid-December) taken into account. Each club plays home and away alternately in its group. The following match sequence applies:

 

1st match day: D v B      C not playing

              E v A

 

2nd match day: B v E      A not playing

              C v D

 

3rd match day: A v B      D not playing

              E v C

 

4th match day: C v A      B not playing

              D v E

 

5th match day: A v D      E not playing

              B v C

 

Assuming we're E (being in pot 5 as we are), i think this means we get 1st and 3rd seeds at home, 2nd and 4th seeds away...

to tell you the truth, seeing the defense on tv against dnipro and in person against St.Mirren i personally think that our defense can fear no-one. not sayin they winna let anything in but i definetly doubt any team could give us a rigth doing with the belief that the guys at the back have just now.
