Better to be unseeded. Far weaker teams won their groups than those coming through the play-off round (barring us).
Exactly what I was thinking,Manure a shoe in for the quarters at least.

100% their 2nd would have been disallowed if it was us, shades of Odegaard at OT?.

Fernandes is such an annoying cheaty cvnt. Hopefully they go all the way to the final and lose just to knackered the squad.

These are the teams we can draw tomorrow,away leg first.We can't draw the manc filth as they are from same league as us.
Union Berlin play in a small 22K ground, unless they move it to 70K Hertha / Olympic stadium? :cry:

Juve 45K rebuilt since I went there, not a bad trip it's all Torino fans in city as Juve fans don't live there! Watch out for pickpockets / tealeaves when traveling round town. :cussing: :censored:

Roma 70K but loads of local savages trying to stab opposition fans up the bum. Nasty shithole apart from some student indie tourist bars! :box: :cussing: Away fans kept in 3 hours!

Seville 42K 2008 CL Did anyone go there?

Bayer L 2002 CL 30K?

Sporting 50K 2018 EL This is the best looking trip I reckon? Did anyone go previously?

Shacktar playing at Legia Warsaw, 31K

:barscarf: We were in a bar getting pissed with the locals, singing songs about Totti, all going well even when Ultras were in there. Then some pissed up Nordie Belfast Gooner decides to flick some twats Burbery baseball cap. :rubchin:

They swore revenge & worse & were coming back, so we made a barricade at one end of the bar, they came in had a look & fecked off, we decided to get some late cabs instead of walking to the fans buses.

The cabs let us off far from the ground, luckily we met some more Gooner lads so there was now enough of us so the cowardly hyenas hanging about outside didn't fancy it, just got in the ground when they scored! :cussing:

We won on penalties & Aluminia didn't manage to save one, most of their's missed the goal! :barscarf:

Lots of reports of our fans getting picked off, it's always the same with those cowardly *word censored*! :banghead: :censored:

When we won the looks on their faces was a scene. I remember the whole away end getting bussed back in to town. Was like something from a movie. They shut all the bars so there was nowhere to celebrate.

How appropriate that they have The UberCUNT of all UberCUNTS as their manager.

Sporting is a great draw for the travelling support, plus home for the 2nd leg. Can't complain about that! :mrgreen:

Had a feeling City would stiffen them today which made our result earlier all the more crucial.

Leicester away always more difficult than Man City’s game, so still a very positive weekend. Can’t see us winning it on goal difference mind!
