Champions League Group Stage

Being in pot 2 is great, we avoid a lot of very loseable games against very good teams and also Basel. Benfica or Moscow fom pot 1 please, although I reckon we could take PSG on for group winners. Anyone but BMG from pot 3 and anyone but Roma and Besiktas from pot 4. Not asking a lot, UEFA, make it happen.

Roma got knocked out last night by Porto, who have joined us (if we qualify) in Pot 2.

Not even UEFA could put Roma in our group :)
 
True. When we were there in 2009 for the UEFA Cup game everyone was sneaking booze from the offy into the pub because it was about €10 a pint. Great trip, despite the snowstorm after the game! Think that was the game when "Spiderman" scaled the netting inside the ground if memory serves.

"We've got Spider-Man, we've got Spider-Man" Rang out from our section.

Nightmare getting in to the ground though pre game. Seem to remember a massive game of keepy uppy in a square too.

Good trip!

The pot 1 choice is pretty easy, isn't it? Juventus as 3rd choice maybe.
If they qualify, BMG will be in pot 4, unless both Ajax and Salzburg blow it tonight.
 
Sure it's been covered but can't be arsed looking back through this thread..
Why do we go in pot 2 if we finished 4th?
 
Coverage starts at 5pm but I'd say it will be 5.20ish before the draw itself starts.
Knowing UEFA, they will fanny around for an hour (while the real draw is being conducted in secret) and then procede with the fake draw.

On that logic Celtic finished 1st and should be in Pot One.

Apart from Pot One, the allocations are by the UEFA rankings.
