Is it pot luck now then,I mean is everyone in the hat and whoever is drawn against each other plays each other ?

Or is it that two teams from same country cant draw each other shit still ?

Can't be drawn together in the next round. After that, it's a free draw.

As one of the four CL dropouts with the best record, we'll be seeded to play the 2nd leg at home. So will the rags, which will cause UEFA and the police a few headaches.

OK mate thanks for that,bloody hell yea,one will have to move to a wednesday then surely,cannot see us both being at home on the same night....ever

This season Europa League games have been played on both Wed & Thurs. For example next week Stoke & Fulham are on Wed. Spurs & Birmingham on Thursday. If the two Manchester clubs play on different days I wonder if that'll affect the TV coverage. Whether C5 gets one day & ITV the other. So they might have to choose between the Manchester clubs.

Rag mate told me there going to be on ITV4 and us Channel bloody 5.

If and it's a big if at the moment,but if we draw Celtic(if they go through) for instance,ITV would have a big say in who screens that,and I would say ITV would beat CH 5 in that war

Not a chance CH 5 have the broadcasting rights until next year when ITV take over so CH 5 get the pick of the games and have the final too.

ITV 4 get the left overs but I also think they have to try and show every english league also like ITV have too for the CL games.

Yeah that's right the Europa League has a main contract for a TV company in each country. For England C5 bought the rights. So they get first choice. Didn't know ITV had got the future contract. They show a lot of football these days, good on 'em.

[6-1 at the swamp]

[Colliahhh]

Brilliant tweet from the channel 5 account last night, pretty sure they were taking the piss

@Channel5Press: A warm welcome to Manchester United to the C5 team... #europaleague

But also that looks like C5 will be showing the rag matches then

 

[Phleeper]

ESPN have got the biggest pockets with being owned by Disney, so if 5 go for the rags, you can bet we'll be the Yanks favourites. Better get your subscriptions ready.

 

[primemutton]

if the europa league games are on the same week as CL games, whats going to happen for the 2nd leg, can the police deal with 2 home games in manchester on the same day, or even on successive days given a potentially explosive mix of away supporters in the city as well

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Bet Stoke and Fulham are gutted we are in it, they wont get a look in on the telly!

 

[decmancity]

The more depressing fact of dropping to CH 5/ ITV 4 is no HD :( to watch the games when i cant get to them.
