    My biggest fear is Barca losing in Moscou after winning against us at CP. Then everything is * up and we might end up last. This is not that unlikely. Barca will be sure of qualification after their win against us and weather conditions may not play in their favour.

    If we just assume like Lenny has when he said "we haven't budgeted to get anything from Barca", then if by some form of divine intervention we get a point off them, I still see the remaining two games as must wins as Benfica and Spartak can easily take points off each as Spartak have already done.

    Barca I'm sure will rest some players but only on the last game as they would be taking to much of risk to assume we would not win our two games, because if they were to rest to many players and take it for granted it is possible for them to lose and then gives us a chance to actually take top spot providing we can beat both Benfica and Spartak.

    But honestly that is way Barca will not rest anyone until their last game of the group and thats why regardless of our results against Barca we really need to beat Benfica and Spartak to stand a chance of going through, the draw at home to Benfica I think is starting to show if we had won that this group wouldn't be so wide open between 2nd and 4th.

    No matter what happens, lets just remember that the goal this season was to qualify for the group stages. Anything more is a bonus. I would be delighted with 3rd place. I would be over the moon with 2nd place.

    Spartak at home could be a tough game but it's a game we should win. Benfica are the weakest team in the group, especially going forward, so we should be taking at least a point in Lisbon, preferably three. Anything against Barcelona would be magnificent. I'm fairly confident. Certainly, if we play like we did at the Camp Nou, reaching the knockouts should be a doddle. :50:

    Great idea but if it's * down with rain I can't see it being a success. The fanzone Barca provided was class.

    Good gesture - * for the usual pubs that are vacated.

    If it doesn't, we could generously pay for our Spanish friends to visit one of the many sunbed tanning shops in the vacinity of the Merchant City

    It's meant to be cold but dry next week.

    To be fair that website changes all the time but it's hopeful nonetheless.

    Out of interest, what exactly is involved in these Fanzones? Just a chance for everyone to get together for a few pints and a bit of craic?
