Hi guys...i'm actually a big admirer of scottish football due to fantastic passionate support of the fans (was having great pleasure witnessing it)...will give you any first hand info on Shakhtar though am not their fan. Anyway opinion that they are weaker than before is too wrong

They spent some crazy money this summer $70 million...their best players at the moment are Gladky (20 year old surprise striker who scored 6 goals in 6 matches and is kind of player who makes goals from nowhere) and $27 million Castillo who is a real class player...Lucarelli is in doubtful physical condition though he made impact yesterday and scored an important equalizer against Salzburg

Maybe to give you an impression of the qualifying round...they were really lucky yesterday! after 0-1 in Austria they conceded a goal after 5 mins at home, scored in 6 mins and it was 1-1 till some 75th minute when rather soft penalty was given...and then was a brilliant 87th minute header...but Trapattoni's side is surprisingly decent and disciplined

This is probably one of the best groups that we've had in years, but it is all hanging on a knife edge.
Our results against these teams:
Milan - D/D
Benfica - W/L (same scoreline)
Shaktar - L/W
We're heading for a series of results (on past form) that cancel themselves out!
Could be the lowest qualifying points ever in this group - like 7-9 points for the team at the top
Time for the Tic to step up their game -
The doesk away game will be tough but am sure this season the hoops will be up for it and get a draw away against donesk.
