POT FOUR – qualified: Lille, Borussia Dortmund, Napoli, Swiss champions, [highlight]Otelul Galati[/highlight]. Favourites to qualify: BATE Borisov, Maccabi Haifa, Dinamo Zagreb or Salzburg

Just had to look these lot up, talk about minnows!

Hope they put some of that champions league money into upgrading their stadium! Guessing they will play champs league games elsewhere as their stadium has a capacity of 13,932?

Just worth remembering that the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, and the rags are considered to be in that group of clubs who traditionally compete into the later stages of that comp. We finished joint second, which sort of proves that we have little to fear but fear itself. We could and should get to the later stages of the CL next season.

I think that other teams will fear us more than we should fear them.

What pissed me off is that we are in Pot 3 but if Arsenal, who finished below us, win their qualifier then they go straight into Pot 1. Another way of keeping the big boys in the money again with an easier draw.

The good thing though, is that every one of those Pot 1 and 2's will not want to see our name drawn out against them. They all know we are in a false position and with our summer strengthening I'd suggest that there'd be a few worried managers and chairmen.

PS. Just had a text of my mate trying to sort out the 1st away game - and it's not even been drawn yet!

What's wrong with that? Looks like decent oldish football stadia to me. Not long ago English top flight football was still played in Plough Lane. Couldn't have been much bigger than that.

And they're off.

This is the Official thread is it not?

[Sister of fu]

They'll come into it mate, United will be fucked in 10.

And why didn't that little twat get a yellow for shooting? RvP gifted Barca this final place with his.

[Sister of fu]

Coming into it now. Finally woke up.

[Beefymcfc]

How good was that?!? Untied are shitting it when Barca get inside the final 3rd.

Vidic having to put in a double shift.

[Tony P]

Credit where credit's due. That was a briliant tackle by Vidic. Pass the Listerine.

The thing with Otelu is weird as hell. In the city of Galati is a huge factory owned by Mitall and the club is owned by him. Mitall is the one of the most richest lad in the world, in Forbess top 10, but he didn't payed not even a cent for the club, but now after they won the league rumors are he is interested in investing in them for the capital of image that will come from participating in the UCL.
They are a lot like Stoke, no individuals, but great squad put together. If City will play them, it won't be that easy as it was last year with Timisoara.
And about the stadium they are more likely to play here : at Piatra Neamt, a pitoresc city, more rural than urban, but with good beer and food, No, GREAT food and beer.
Of course is the national stadium option in Bucharest : but is unlikely because the fan base in Bucharest for Otelu is almost down to 0.

GOAL!!!!!!

[Tony P]

Errrrrr, fella's......there's a thread for that.
