Any minute - it's meant to be an hour after the draw finishes

Stay on Uefa.com they'll publish it

Ha sorry - there were so many sarcastic ones flying about. It's on the Belgian border. 45 min drive across from Calais, 50 min train north from Paris, 70 minute train SW from Brussels

Cheers

I have just been looking up both the city and the team

They only formed in 1944.

Saloman Kalou plays for them....and that Origi bloke the RS bought is there on loan.

Also if you fly to Charles de Gaulle Aiport there's a direct Lille train from there - 50 minutes

It costs 50 euro for one way. Any cheaper options?

Don't know if you could fly into Brussels for less? Looks closer on the map. And if there's an airport in Ghent that would be an option too.

Brussels sounds good but how to get from there to Lille?

Train from Brussels, takes 40 mins or so I think

St Pancreas to Lille takes 2 hours 22 mins, £29.50 singles

Shame you haven't got internet access mate, you could look on google maps

 

[polish]

Yeah, trains from Brussels are much cheaper. Thanks mate

Train - easy. Get the Eurostar toward London and it stops there, but local train is cheaper, max 90 mins

Interesting point to come out of the pre-amble to the draw.

If the winners were to come from the same country as the CL winners then they would go straight in the CL group stage.

So if Chelsea of City were to win the CL and we won the EL then it would be all systems go for next season.

No qualifying round.

Something to play for, keep fingers crossed.

Paris-Lille return is never less than 100 euros, usually about 120.

Sorry, I meant from Brussels, get the Brussels to London Eurostar and it stops in Lille.

But the local Brussels-Lille train is much much cheaper. Cheaper than French trains too (than Paris to Lille)
