2013/14 Champions League Qualification

Helsink/Maribor and I'd love to face Zagreb Belgrade or legia all mouth watering ties for me because they are so different and off the field it would be an experience

 

Love us being seeded!

 

Because we all know cville arent going to go anywhere in europe and its a chance for a big payday and also the fact that one of the biggest teams in the world is coming to solitude, also we are all die hard celtic men.

 

4th round is the problem. Good that we avoid the best teams but there will be some good players in those teams, and they will be hungry to beat us.

 

This team is semi professionals, realistically this tie should be over in the first leg. Can't see it being as tricky as people make out, we're playing Cliftonville here. I was speaking to a big Cliftonville fan today and he said he'll be surprised if these tickets get past season ticket holders. I fancy these ticket prices to be £30+ because they'll know they'll sell every single one of them.

It's ok people saying change venue but where to? We're talking a week or 2 after the 12th, still in the marching season. It'll cause too much trouble. I honestly think it'll be kept at Solitude, really looking forward to this.

 

I beleive the third round is also sort of regionalised like today.

 

Know a few Cliftonville fans who aren't too happy with the draw. Basically because their European trip this season will be to Glasgow. Do feel for them.

Game could be a recipe for disaster. Can envisage Celtic fans going over, floating about drunk not knowing where they are.

 

Safety in numbers they will be fine. Belfast is no worse than London you have far more chance of being attacked in London and even for football reasons south london etc. Belfast is full of Celtic fans.

 

Can't wait to hear the rebs being belted out together by the home and away fans

 

Thats what I'm looking forward to aswell

 

Looks easy

 

I'm sure they'll try to sing a lot of Cliftonville songs to support their own, but I can't see them ignoring our fans if we start to sing.

 

We have fallen to plenty easy/pub teams in the past.

 

Should reach playoff round no problem, but some decent teams we can get in that round.

 

Sooooo hope we qualify for the groups, but its going to be tricky. Love waking up knowing theres a grouo game at night!

 

Threads Merged.

 

Nice thought that with good attendances we can help set Cliftonville up financially for their next campaign! I never knew much about the club, but learning a lot in this thread. HH.

 

I just hope both fans don't cross the line on the rebs front so to speak. I'm confident most will see sense and save them for the pubs before and after the game. A few is fine but we have plenty of Celtic songs that should be predominantly sung, with the odd anti Rangers/Linfield one

As for the latter rounds, it's early to say but Austria Vienna in the final qualifying round would be the most favourable I reckon.

 

My pal booked Belfast for the dates we were playing them over there then he found out that we're playing the away leg first. He's raging:smiley-laughing002:

 

I think I would rather hear the rebs than some hun/linfield ones.
