CL QF Draw - City V Spurs ===== SF V Ajax (If we get there)

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Absolutely perfect.

Even more so, the impact it takes on United and Spurs in our league games.

City have it all open.

 

[BucksBlue]

Juventus - Liverpool final.

Booooooooh

 

[lancs blue]

Pretty happy with that. Means we play Spurs 3 times in April which is probably better than 3x rag games, but won't be easy. Very difficult to win 3 games in a row against the same oppo, teams start to cancel each other out.

Draw 1-1 away, 0-0 at home in CL, stuff them 4-0 in the PL.

Only have to beat them twice though to win three points in the league and go to the semi

 

[TINY]

Yep, Sheikh Mansour did a good job. ;-)

So it was fixed FOR City you’re saying? You won’t fit in pal

 

[Gordyola]

So the rags fixtures in both rounds reversed thanks to the GMP

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

I'll take that all day long. No excuses now.

A score draw away in the UCL plus two wins would be fine; in fact 0-0 in home leg would do i.e. two draws and one win could leave us very happy but it would be a stressful journey.

Don't need to , win at home in the league , Spurs are stuttering , win at home and draw away in Chumps.

Of the three English teams, Spurs are probably the easiest to do it against. Won't be easy.

We don’t need to beat them 3 times. 2 homes wins and an away draw are very achievable/expected.

 

[Gray]

Easy draw for Dippers.

Excellent - the more games they have to play the better our chances of winning the Premier League, that is the one I want more than any other.

 

[jrb]

Fixed!

 

[Ric]

Fuck me. Rags get Barca. To be honest, if we got the cup draws they've had this season the Agenda thread would have broken the internet.

Yep, they've had absolutely wretched luck with the draws this season. It's great.

 

[Ardwick Green Blue]

Great for us and don’t run away with the idea that Liverpool will beat Porto at a canter. I expect them to win but it won’t be a walkover and that helps us in the league.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

So we're looking at City, Barca, Juventus & Liverpool semi-finals.

Not quite the easy tournament it felt like a week ago.

We're on a par with Barca, we're better than Ronaldo FC, Liverpool fear us after this seasons beating they took. I never thought it was easy but tbh we have the beating of these. Hard to beleive sometimes

 

[mccity]

Honestly anything other then Barcelona or Juventus was always going to be a good draw, the fact it's not Liverpool or United is a bonus.


Plus it's hilarious how United have to play the home leg first.

 

[blue roo]

Just so I know for future reference, was that a fix?

Haha .. and all the conspiracy theorists are where? .....

 

[Akai]

what will be our fixtures like?

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Rags tie will have to be reversed and they’ll play at home first, as we can’t both play at home in same week, so the lower ranked team has to change....

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Not bad. Nice for the boys not to have to travel too much for the next round. Assuming we get by Spurs either Juve or Ajax will be a real test. But any semi would be.
