Re: Champions League Draw

I think it's excellent. This is why we are in it. Rags will be thinking fuckin hell another load of compulsory tickets against wank European opposition.

This ride might not last forever so I am happy to be on it whilst it does.

Madrid at home is what football dreams are made of.

Sorry, but we've got to stop this paranoid nonsense. How much planning and behind the scenes fixing would need to go on to actually 'fix' the draw just to harm us? It's bollocks.

Let's stop bleating, three fantastic trips to look forward to and three huge home games where the stadium will be rocking

Bring it on!!
 
Re: Champions League Draw

United are paired with us, Dortmund are paired with Bayern, Barca with Real, AC with Juventus, Chelsea with Arsenal for TV and policing reasons:

Look at the draw:

Group A: Porto, Dynamo Kiev, Paris St Germain, Dinamo Zagreb
Group B: Arsenal, Schalke, Olympiakos, Montpellier
Group C: AC Milan, Zenit St Petersburg, Anderlecht, Malaga
Group D: Real Madrid, Manchester City, Ajax, Borussia Dortmund
Group E: Chelsea, Shakhtar Donetsk, Juventus, FC Nordsjaelland
Group F: Bayern Munich, Valencia, Lille, BATE Borisov
Group G: Barcelona, Benfica, Spartak Moscow, Celtic
Group H: Manchester United, Braga, Galatasaray, CFR Cluj

City/United, Arsenal/Chelsea, Barca/Real, Benfica/Porto, PSG/Lille, Juventus/AC, Dortmund/Bayern all on opposite sides of the draw.

Thus when it came to the last 3 teams(I believe), Nordsjaelland, Cluj and Dortmund, it was clear that Dortmund were to be drawn in the opposite half of the draw to Bayern so had to be drawn in the top half of the draw, the only remaining group was D, ours. Nordsjaelland came out first so were drawn into E, Cluj then had to go in H and Dortmund into D.

Way it works.

Re: Champions League Draw

Well that was a fucking nightmare. I suppose at least it will be exciting stuff again but I don't relish the possibility of Europa league during the run in again and if we do progress, it is going to take a mghty effort with no opportunities to rotate players and tough euro games before league 6 pointers no doubt. All in all fucking shit and anyone who thinks it is great that we have the toughest group is nuts IMO.
