    We wouldn't have as many domestic fixtures being moved to a Sunday. Which, in my opinion, is probably the worst thing about not making the Champions League. We barely get any Saturday 3pm kick-offs as it is, playing in the EL just makes it worse. I think we only had something like 4 or 5 home games on a Saturday at 3pm last season.

    Would love Dortmund. That's about the only thing that would get me excited about this

    How do you manage to enjoy Scottish football if you can't get excited about European competition?

    Only positive regarding the Europa cup is I can actually get to an away game. Tue/Wed impossible for me to take off

    Which results would need to go against us tonight for us to drop into pot 3? Any ideas?

    Rubin / slovan / skenderbeu

    We ain't ready for dortmund and *, we need confidence not a * pumping again just so it lines lawells pockets again... Aye the big teams sound good, but I'd rather be qualifying, than embarrassed

    Pretty much how I see it. We need to think long-term and coefficient points are becoming scarce.

    I want harder games. We need to learn, think the best thing that happened to Neil Lennon European wise was being handed a tough Europa Group, Udinese, Atletico Madrid were CL standard. It done him a world of good.

    I'd hope Ronny would be the same.

    If we progress from an easier group we get the harder games when it matters tho... We need an easy group here for a change.. We need to get confidence back, goals back and a proper back four working

    We didn't get embarrassed by Inter last year.

    I want a tough group. As has been said, a tough EL group did Lenny's team the world of good.

    I second this. I want our team to be tested and see where we are really at.

    No point in looking like Barcelona against the diddy teams.

    Pumping a few small sides who have scraped into the groups is not really going to teach us anything, a few hard games will do us the power of good and give the players an opportunity to make amends a bit from Tuesday, also will create more interest if we have Dortmund, Liverpool etc coming to Glasgow and will be great nights with big atmospheres like Inter last season

    King Kenny and Henrik. Proud to have seen them both play.
    Canny get Liddypool. We're in the same pot.

    I think, in our current state, any of the teams will give us a game. Look at Astra last year.
