Champions League Draw & TV Pairings

If CSKA get through tonight, then because Russian & Ukrainian teams will be kept apart, there will be a high chance of a trip to the old Soviet Union for us.

This has to be the year they don't get the toughest possible draw.

Love to share your optimism.

As sure as day is night we'll get the group of death whilst UEFA give rags the group of deffo.

Just pick the hardest teams from each pot that we are eligible to play and that is what we will get. For the rags look at the easiest teams and it will be so. It is rigged.

Until we get in pot 1 which is why it is so important that we win our league. This has to be our priority this year.

With the change in rules now (Pot 1 consisting of league winners) it won't matter if we win the league. All that will happen is we'll end up playing the team that finished second in La Liga instead! If we were in Pot 1 this time around we'd get Real Madrid guaranteed.

As has been mentioned, we'll be paired with Chelsea in the TV draw and then unless we come up early we're screwed and it will be Barcelona. The Rags will get the easiest draw, Chelsea's will be fairly tough and Arsenal will have an okay one as well. Another possible bonus is that depending on TV rights/policing what will La Liga do? They surely can't have Real and Barca on the same night, which means Atletico and Barca probably get paired (because of the Madrid factor) this might have an impact if we're pulled out of the hat early with one of the easier Pot 1 teams.

It's all pre-worked out anyway to avoid clashes with clubs from the same city/TV deals/same country.

I bet it will be Barca with City and Chelsea with Atletico. The rags will get PSV and Arsenal will get PSG.
 
Celtic supporters are getting rid of their BT subscriptions quicker than a 70s B.B.C. T.V. presenter can wipe his hard drive! So no jaunt up north of the boarder. Come what may, we have to beat the teams in front of us, the mood we are in this season, I think at least the semis!
