Champions League 2016/17: Playoff Round - Steaua Bucharest

[drthingy]

Anyone know when the cup scheme closes? I'm away for August so was hoping to only sign up post qualifier (not just because I don't fancy the Europa league- honest!)

any direct flights from Manchester, can't find any

Luton, Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow only. Luton looks cheapest option with Wizz Air.

Looks like direct flights from Birmingham as well

5 hour flight, not bad. I guess its the best available draw. We go in as huge favorites but lets not get too ahead of ourselves.

There is no doubt that Steaua will be up for this game. We just have to make sure that we do not do anything stupid by giving them any stupid goals. What we need is a solid performance, and hopefully a couple of goals as well. Let's make the 2nd leg were we can play without any worry about trying to pull a goal or 2 back to qualify.

Absolutely brilliant draw, only Young Boys would have been probably even better. The last time I saw them play was last year's qualification, but even if they improved 100% since that, they are probably still a bit shite.

Steaua are no mugs. They beat Sparta Prague convincingly to get to this stage. Having said that its a good draw and I expect us to go through but by the way some people are reacting to the draw it's as if we've got a bye. Looking forward to the trip
