CL QF Draw - City V Spurs ===== SF V Ajax (If we get there)

[Ancient Citizen]

Glad to see you know the rules!

;-)

Cheeky ****, as if I'd be seen dead wearing lime green.

My brother lives near WHL and walks past it every day. Spoke to him yesterday and he was saying stadium looks impressive but the infrastructure such as the roads, means of accessing the ground from station etc are no where near ready for thousands of people.

It is, the united tie would be reversed.

We are slowly but surely getting there

Don’t think that’s right. This one’s been changed because City finished higher in last season premier league. That will still be true if the rags were to knock out Barcelona and so they’d play a home first, once again.

No, that's not true. The Utd game is switched regardless because we finished higher last season. So in the quarters their game is switched and in the semis (if we both progress) their game is switched again meaning we are at home first in the semi whatever the outcome of the quarters.

Isn't it more of an advantage to play the second leg away, given the away goals rule? If we drew 0-0 at Spurs and 2-2 at home they'd go through just because the rags can't play a home game the day after us. Sounds a bit shit to me. Would prefer the home leg first to be honest, win about 3-0 then relax away.

I'd rather we know what we need to get through in 90 mins and have the advantage of being home to do it.

 

[Gordyola]

If they get through its their game reversed not ours, so if we get through we're at home first regardless.

This is how it came out

Spurs / City v Ajax / Juv

United / Barca v Liverpool / Porto

So our fixture is reversed as I understand it or might be wrong

Good draw, happy to avoid City until a possible Final

 

[markbmcfc]

Is it confirmed as the 9th?

 

[aguero93:20]

Moderately happy with that. Dippers may have got an easy quarter final but they're in the worst half of the draw for them. We should beat spurs.

 

[pride in battle]

No we are Away second leg if we get through

Unless the rags beat Barca ;)
