Champions League Last 16 Draw | City v Sporting Clube de Portugal

[MAG]

Yes 15th feb away leg

Argh, gutted. Thanks anyway mate.

Not official yet!!

Wait for UEFA to release official dates. City has just put two tentative dates on fixtures page (as 15th Feb and 8th March), they could very well be 22nd Feb and 15th March as well ... or for that matter 16th Feb, 9th March, 23rd Feb or 16th March ... so hold off booking any flights yet!

Edit: Fact that both dates City has put are Tuesdays gives away, they're tentative placeholders ... if we play Tue first leg, we'd play Wed the second and vice versa ...

Shambles of a competition. Can't even fix a draw properly.

Where've you seen that mate?

Worryingly, so do I, as our record against English clubs in European competition is dreadful.

That has to change at some point. For me, although out is out, it’s always worse if it’s another English club that knocks us out. I don’t know why we always seem to freeze in these games.

My memories of UnSporting Lisbon is that they are the biggest time wasters I have ever seen. They make Wolves look speedy.

They need smashing.

I'm sure the Quataris are re calling a few brown envelopes, as we speak. Thats not what is supposed to happen. Supprised PSG haven't complained and naturally wanted the easier tie.

City draw the second worst team after initially getting 5th worst team.

To be fair there were an awful lot of balls in bowls. Looked like black olives on a bar in Sevilla - Tapas confusion.
