Champions League draw continued (merged)

Re: Champions League draw continued

Great group, tough but excellent fixtures. I had to laugh at Gary Cook and the blond girl who seemed not to realise we were in group A until the bloke anounced it. We could only have been in Group A, B, or D, and B and D had already been asigned two draws earlier. They looked suprised for some reason! LOL

The blond girl is Vicky Kloss, Chief Communications Officer.

Think most of us were surprised I was waiting for group H.

Re: Champions League draw continued

Why couldn't we enter group H?


Also when do we find out the fixtures?

To seperate us from United, so one can play games on Tuesday and one on Wednesday.

Re: Champions League draw continued

A bit of an anti-climax after I thought we had Barca and AC. And despite the fact Munich will be our only amazing away day, I'm still buzzing about this. Villareal is a real toilet, and their ground is just downright horrible. Calling it League 2 standard could be perceived as a compliment. The stands are steep, it's cramped, it's dirty and their fans don't sing. Napolis stadium is great though, and their fans are just nutters. Should be an incredible atmosphere there, though it is one of the scummiest towns you could visit, I wouldn't advise taking many valuables.

All from personal experience. Don't get me wrong, I couldn't be more excited about this. Watch out Europe!

At least wilkins had the decency to admit that the rags couldn't have hand picked a better group.

Re: Champions League draw continued

was happy til napoli came out, would have been nice to have a couple of 'easier' games to try other players

but munich only came 3rd, villareal came 4th and napoli 3rd - can't really complain

Because of the red and blue groups we couldnt be in a red pot as the Rags already had one.
