Europa Hooligan League

[tonea2003]

yes you do, in our play off round there are the following

74 clubs will play in the play-off round: the 35 winners from the third qualifying round, the 15 losers from the 2010–11 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round (10 champions and 5 non-champions), and the following 24 clubs which enter in this round: of which we are one

The Spurs are entered in the Champion's League Playoff Round in the Non-Champions section along with Sevilla, Sampdoria, Werder Breman and Auxerre as can be seen here:

The 10 losers of the Champion's League Playoff Round (5 Champions and 5 Non-Champions) are dropped into the Europa League Group Stage. So if Spurs lose their very first Champion's League game, they will still be in the Group Stage of the 2010-2011 Europa League. We, Manchester City, enter the Europa League in the playoff round, so we need to win to get where the Spurs will end up even if they lose. You can see the Europa League brackets here:

The incident I witnessed was in a bar, a group of Dutch lads came wandering up the road looking for it, they took up position in a bar opposite ours, a couple of city went over to have a chat, the general consensus being that if city didnt go over there they would come over here - so city went over. I have to say city were minding their own business, it was the Dutch lot that came looking for it, same happened in Belgium 3 years back. A lot of these European nutters come looking for any English team's supporters, simple as that. The same will happen next season. It even went off in China 2006 pre season and Ballymena. It happens all the time.

It happend with Everton fans in Thailand a few years back .as if there was nothing else to do<br /><br />-- Tue Jun 01, 2010 2:55 pm --<br /><br />

Haha I got asked very politely for a fight at both of the only two European aways I've ever been to. I declined both and in Denmark the guy even shook my hand.

I'd be nervous if we played Galatasaray, and I'd dread the Elano re-union.

wouldn't play them in the play off round as they are to be seeded like us so would be kept apart. they have a similar coefficient so would be likely to be in the same pot for the group stages as well if we both make it through.

i would love it if we got napoli, there fans are awesome

Same, and I met a girl over in naples the other year who follows Napoli, so that would be great ;)

 

[lancs blue]

If all the qualifying rounds go according to seeding - which they won't! - these are the teams we'd AVOID at the group stage as we'd be in the same pot as them for the draw.

Lille OSC
Galatasaray
Dinamo Kiev
Bayer Leverkusen
Paris Saint-Germain
Sporting Braga
Celtic
Club Brugge
Palermo
Getafe
Besiktas
