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

[scousemanc]

When you consider the 2 draws as a whole we've got the best combination of the 4 English teams. UEFA are warming to us ;)

 

[lancs blue]

Spurs new ground too aint it? Off work that week so a stay over possibly

How many tickets I wonder will they give us

5% is the minimum for UEFA matches, so around 3,000 if the new place has 60k capacity.

If Rags get passed Barca they likely play the dippers. That is not good for them.....over to Rag Cafe to lurk.

Get to yer nearest cafe n' have a brew ya rag ; )

 

[tonea2003]

we certainly can't complain about that draw, get everyone fit and raring to go and we can do this

 

[Blue Mist]

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

yes, knowing that we have sussed out they are bent they deliberately gave us a reasonable draw so that it looks legit. They are clever at Uefa.

"Lump on, it's City's turn"... I was told that last June by let's say a fly on their wall. Explains why we started as favourites I think...

Weirdo.

Reckon we’ll get past Spurs quite comfortably in the end. Juventus will be be tough, 2nd leg away in Turin will be a nightmare. Especially with Pep’s record away in Europe

You sure riennes had 5000 at the Emirates last night

Utd 4% possession against Barca. Probably still fluke it through.

300 basis points too high.

Let's actually beat Spurs first, eh? ;)

The benefit of playing spurs 3 times in a short space of time is at least we don't suffer in the league from being in the champions league, we will both be in the same situation and given we have the better team and the better squad there really can be no excuses

 

[malg]

Good draw, but Spurs will be tough. All depends on what injuries we pick up for the remainder of the season. Avoiding the Dippers, Rags and Barca is a great piece of work.

 

[lancs blue]

Home team in the final???

Means we can play in home kit if there's a clash and we get the home dressing room.

 

[jrb]

Just so I am clear:-
We have avoided Rags, Dippers and Barca until the final.
We play the poorest English side in the quarters (an English side suits us IMO)
We will be the home 2nd in the quarters and semis
We will be the home team in the Final.
But the draw is fixed against us-all good?

Is this correct? :-)

 

[domalino]

So who would we want in the final out of Barcelona or Liverpool?

 

[TheRemainsOfTheDave]

WHL

I think UEFA have to permit them to change stadiums in the competition which will probably rely on safety tests and all that. I expect it'll be granted, though.

 

[blueparrot]

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

Yes but for the semi it would be to their advantage.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

So who would we want in the final out of Barcelona or Liverpool?

Barca, without a doubt

 

[cleavers]

No, it's the quarter final that is switched, so Utd home first now, possible the semi could move to

Think you misunderstood my post, the semi will only be switched if they get there, they won't.

 

[lancs blue]

Minimum is the key word, can't see Spuds giving us more than they have to.
