The Turks will come out fighting and kicking...so we can count on jack getting crocked and monreal....then a bit o handbags and the ref will send one of ours off....

This is NOT going to be an easy game!

This mob travel about as well as Karl Pilkington in An Idiot Abroad. Fear not fellas - they might be brave in front of the Welcome to Hell banners but they're a bunch of pussy cats on the road. Oh and the manager's a *word censored* too - just saying

Ever thought about writing to Abou?

Spent quite a while trying unsuccessfully to get a ticket for this one. Went on today and the TX must have only just opened because there are now shit loads of people trying to sell their ticket, nearly every block was orange. Expect to see plenty of empty seats

Ahh....the deep joy of the Chumpions League qualifiers......clearly its not just me who feels that way !

Wait till the Group stage - there'll be gaps galore but UEFA won't change the bloated, boring format

We wouldn't have less recovery time after every match.

What?

If you play on Thursday and then have a PL match on Saturday you obviously have less recovery time than you would playing on a Tuesday/Wednesday... It's simple logistics.

As an example, if we go into the Europa League we'll have to play a match on Thursday October 2nd before heading to Stamford Bridge on Sunday the 5th; if we're in the CL proper, that corresponding fixture could take place on Oct 1st or even September 30th meaning we could possibly have two extra days rest before facing Chelsea.

Which scenario do you think would most benefit the team and our chances of success in the PL?

You only play two games a week no matter what the format. If you play Thursday, you play Sunday.

Yes mate. Just stick it in the hole. And no I am not puling your plonker. Slightly envious of your newby excitement. Be aware no booze in the ground for CL games. Are you listening Red Member?.

Non non non mon ami. Those fuckers charged me postage for tickets that never came in the mail. I did however get a PDF that I need to print out. Not sure how costs £2.50 to deliver to me, considering I received it almost instantly. Robbing bastards.

The best bit of all was this line at the bottom of the email; "Think before you print this out. Do you really need a hard copy of this email?" - No I don't need to print it you fuckers, I thought that's what I had a membership card for?! But you're making me print it with this shitty new PDF ticket initiative. Wankers.
