The Europa League

So the teams are Aris , Genk, AIK, Elfsborg and Maribor?

 

I think this side needs to walk before it can run, and I remember the MON days where we were play AC and Barca and giving them right good seeing to at Parkhead.

Changed days:

- First job, win the league back from Mordor.
- Win domestic Trophy's.
- Get into Europe and generate cash and try and win some games.

We're a long long way from where we were but were a * sight better off now that TM and his half arsed approach is behind us.

If we can get on well in Europa then fine, if not, I'm not ging to freak out about it, first things first. Sign a decent CB, GK and win yer domestic games/league.


Hail hail.....and here's hoping we can stick the huns in the first OF of the season!

 

sorry if this has been said but hte draw is live on British Eurosport at 12.30 tomorrow

 

So we can't play Rapid Vienna? I'd love to play the cheating Austrian c*nts, just so hopefully one of their players breaks a leg or two and we thrash them. Hopefully.

 

What are todays players for Rapid got to do with what happened all those years ago?.

 

Lets hope we get past the play-offs lads so we can start talking about how we have a chance of getting even near the final stages and hopefully the Final in Dublin :icon_mrgreen:

 

Scandalous comment from a fellow supporter

 

Grasshopper-Club (SUI), Trabzonspor AŞ (TUR), FC Utrecht (NED), AIK (SWE) , FK Qarabağ (AZE).

Best case, a team from Azerbajdian. Worst case, Trabzonspor.

 

AIK are a good team :icon_mrgreen:

 

Yes please!!!! We would absolutely rape them!

 

i hope we dont get trabzonspor, the rest should be no hassle imo

 

As a dane I would fancy a trip to Sweden... FC Utrecht would be second worst scenario.

Sadly, the teams from group two was "easier".
Big names await Europa League fate on UEFA.COM

 

with our players at the moment and some of their lack of experience in europe, me personally I would love the hardest team possible from who we can play so they can get experience playing in tough, hard and get their experience up as right now europe is not a priority it's all about claiming our territory within the SPL by trying to win all domestic cups.

IF we get through the tough qaulifier I hope for I again would want a tougher group like the good old MON days with the near impossible group just so our inexperienced players gain some awesome experience and we make the most of the qaulity against us by getting our players experience against that level which could help us next season when we are in CL.

I really do believe for our players to get anything out of europe they need to play against the best teams avaliable to help build up some strong and solid experience

 

So am I right that we will get one of these teams.

FK Qarabağ (AZE)
AIK (SWE)
FC Utrecht (NED)
Trabzonspor AŞ (TUR)
Grasshopper-Club (SUI)

If yes, we need to avoid Trabzonspor. Any of the other we can beat well I think.
Bet Jos would love a trip back to AIK.

 

This draw is today yeah.

 

AIK were a gOOd team. My GF and her family are AIK fans. Though they are champions they are *. They're skint and second from bottom.

 

I dont trust turkish teams so stay away from Trabzonspor. Don't mind the rest.

 

Not sure if im reading this wrong on the uefa website but when talking about how six former european champions have joined the draw for the Europa League, we are not mentioned?

Anyway think we could take any of the sides we could be drawn against, would rahter avoid the turks right enough, kind of hoping we get FC Utrecht as i have a cousin over there who is a big fan, could possibley get over there and meet up with him. :bbpd:

 

AIK is a * joke. They are on the edge to relegate this year, and have played * all season. I would love to se this happen though - could see Celtic in sweden then.
