When is the date for away leg confirmed? My mate stupidly booked us flights to Nice already, as he was convinced it was confirmed for 7 March. Just seen it could also be the week after

They mentioned it would be confirmed after the draw.

I assume by tomorrow we'll know.

Basically when they've sorted the TV schedule out.

The club have already posted the dates. The home game is Tuesday 21 February, just after we are away to Bournemouth and home to the rags. The away game is Wednesday 15 March just after we are home to Stoke, and just before we are home to the dippers.

I was looking at the run of Fixtures we have during the next phase of CL and wasn't too impressed. If you could get a worse set of fixtures then those were the ones.

It's on the 15th.

Maybe you can spend the week? I heard it's quite Nice down there.

Just posted similar mate. Then the next 2 games after the Dippers are Arsenal and Chelsea, both away.

Not many get a run like that.

Monaco is a very tough game for us, beat Arse and Spurs in the last two seasons. Pacey side.

No disrespect to Monaco but Accrington Stanley would give us a game right now and fancy there chances pal .

Wonder will the players get a motivational boost from the draw today.

Its now real. They are in the last 16 of the cl (the competition they covet over all others). The route to the qf is mapped out. From there anything can happen.

Guess we will see Wednesday night

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Cannot complain about this one.

[phips]

[johnny crossan]

That made me laugh. Anyone watch French football? A few journalists have been saying Monaco is playing some good stuff at the moment with a young squad - I know sod all about them.

Looking at their table, they're sat in second behind Nice and infront of PSG. It's the goals scored column that's worrying for us with them scoring 53 goals so far, 21 more than the other 2 mentioned. It is a very poor league though and even though they beat PSG at home, they lost 4-0 to Nice away.

At this moment in time I'd say they'd walk right through us but given we don't play for over 2 months, hopefully our frailties are sorted out.

Arsene comments, I believed them when they said we could choose our opponents, and of course we fully expected City to get Bayern or Real Madrid, we will sit down with our lawyers and get the draw done again.
