aww fuck off why straight to group at not the others with no english clubs?

Meh not such a let down, good test actually.

? You can't be drawn with teams from the same country in the group stage

[dave watson's perm]

how come we went straight to A??

[ian494]

Why did we only get Pot A??

[Ted Hughes]

Munich!

[Renato_CTID]

At least we'll not fight against my AC! Better for my heart indeed!

[edgeley blue]

Anyone but Napoli please

[Waz]

To explain why we're in Group A is pretty easy.

* We can't play anyone from the same country so that rules out groups C, E and F straight away.
* If a nation has four sides in the CL, two must be in groups A-D and two in groups E-H because those groups play alternate Tue/Wed
* As Chelski and Arsenal are in groups E and F, we can't be in group H (phew) because of this rule so we had to be in groups A, B or D.
* Therefore when we were drawn, groups B and D already had the third team drawn was only one choice left - group A.

I'm pretty pleased with the draw thus far.

There were already 2 english teams in groups E - H & only one (scum) in groups A - D.

Due to the other teams left to be picked, it narrows the choice of pots.
