No worries!This is awsome thanks for the updates.
Just seen Young Boys, I remember a Harry.R interview saying Clive Allen had been to watch them and told Harry how bad they were and that we’d be fine and then we turn up on the artificial pitch and are 3-0 down after 30 mins and he and Joe Jordan are turning to Clive Allen like I thought you said they were shit ?? can’t see Jose being quite that casual with his approach in European qualifiers. Oh Arry ey.
So who might we actually be drawn against and when will we know?
The draw for the round we enter is on the 31st of August. At some point before then, we'll be allocated to a "group" which will limit the options we can draw to between 5 and 7 different teams. We don't yet know who exactly it'll be possible to draw because it obviously depends on who wins in this round. These would probably be the highest-profile options, although the first four would all have a good chance of moving to the Seeded section depending on how many upsets there are in the first round:
Aarhus
Aris Thessaloniki
OFI Heraklion
Servette
CSKA Sofia
And in terms of UK and Irish opposition, the potential options are:
Motherwell
Lincoln Red Imps
Shamrock Rovers
Coleraine
Glentoran
Bohemians
Bala Town
In total however, there will be 37 different teams we can draw, so the odds are it will be somebody low-profile from Eastern Europe.
