Europa League Group Draw 25/8/17 Noon

[bobbydigital]

I'd start crowing when this Dutch lad gets past the EL stage....or amasses a decent PL points total.

We need to get through the group, draw Dynamo Kiev, beat them and vanquish Martinez forever. The circle will finally be complete.

Great trips. I'm getting my travellers cheques sorted tomorrow

You will pay a lot more for your euros than you did last time
On the flip side I get more sterling for my Euro when I go over.

 

[Connor]

Limassol game will be played in Nicosia

Tasty draw there. I wish I could fly over to Lyon or Italy.

that's a great group to be part of. Pretty confident we'll win it comfortably too. We have an awful knack of being complacent against poor and unknown opposition so to play a known entitiy will at least mean we have to be our best. If you want to win the thing you have beat the better teams. Lyon and Atalanta have sold argubaly their best players too and i can promise you those teams will be gutted to have drawn us. Happy days.

And the Atlanta and Lyon fans will be saying we sold Lukaku and are trying to sell Barkley.

Apollon can keep hold of the ball . Their passing is better than average. uncanny knack of sneaking in goals from nothing so pose a bit of danger.

They were fined for unsporting conduct V aberdeen lot of wasting time , flopping around. fans Spitiing on aberdeen manager
their stewards were not the most pleasant so anyone going there beware.

That draw hasn't worked out too bad. Only matchday 1 away against Atalanta followed by Arsenal on the Sunday

The last away in Cyprus we have the rs on the Sunday so at least it's not much of a hike for an away game.

Putain de maison.

Wonder how tough it'll be to get Apollon Limassol tickets at their place? I fancy that one.

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

Lyon is a tougher game than some are suggesting. Atalanta are no mugs either. Apollon I've no idea on tbh. Still think we'll get out of the group on top though. Show these Euro blerts what we're all about.
