Spurs in the Europa League: Road to Gdańsk

[Marty]

Bodø/Glimt can draw AC Milan.

I want to see Glimt make it as far as possible but that would be a hell of a matchup. Milan won't find it easy.

As for our draw, it could hardly be more boring. Laci should be the worst team so them please.

Me: The EL is a proper competition, full of serious teams.

My mates who support CL teams: You can draw Plovdiv, whose nickname is 'The Smurfs'

Me:

So it's a one-off game against any of those three teams, and it can be home or away?

Yes home or away is a random draw

 

[Yid-ol]

Using these groups kinda takes away from the draw IMO... So when do we find out which one of these pre selected teams we can get in the 'draw'?

Draw is a midday today.
They did the mini draw yesterday to work out those groups.

Talk about longing it out!

I wonder what other mini republics and dictatorships at the edge of Europe (not Ireland of.c) think of the nickname "Gooners" ?

They're normally much bigger and done to set up some very loose regionalisation. But this year it's about keeping apart teams from countries with restrictions on each other that could put matches in doubt

Fuck sake. Bulgaria on a shit pitch.

Our top players shouldn't be anywhere near this.

 

[hughy]

Am I right in saying that was the worst possible draw of the lot?

Quality wise probably Aris from Greece, but all of them are teams we should beat easily.

 

[Wsussexspur]

We allowed to travel to Bulgaria? (Obviously not talking about fans mean the team?) is it on the governments no go list?

Its grand we can save Harry and play one of our back up strikers.

 

[absolute bobbins]

At least they have an airport, we can fly in and fly straight back out again

Why is that so bad are they any good? Or just bad because it’s away not home?

 

[yojambo]

Not got a good feeling about this.
