It should be within the hour I believe. They have a set format of 1 v 4, 2 v 3 etc. But then that needs to be put into a computer to make sure only 2 teams from the same country are playing on the same day etc etc. 

 

Thanks :thumbup:

 

Yeah the second part is what I was wondering about. I just thought that there must be some logistical hurdles to sort out which might mean the final list is not produced straight away.

 

I read an interesting article last summer about how they put together the fixture lists for the PL/Football League - a much bigger task of course, but still I remember thinking that there are quite a few things that need to be borne in mind that I hadn't really thought about...

One of our greatest-ever CBs the mighty MIGUEL VITOR is now playing for the Israeli outfit that will be taking on Celtic tomorrow night.

 

Unfortunately the BBC reckon he is a doubt for the game and because of this I'll watch the Dundalk game instead.

Barnsley away header he scored iirc. 

We were outstanding that day. I can't remember the Barnsley manager at the time but he made 2 subs within the first 20 minutes to try and contain us. Also at the end Yuki Abe didn't have a clue we were singing his name and I think it was Andy King who had to tell him to wave at us.

 

Also Vitor's double away at Scunthorpe when it looked like we were playing on a beach. The next week he was dropped for Bruma to come back in.

Borussia Mönchengladbach are strolling it away at BSC Young Boys and are 1-0 ahead. It's pretty much no contest from the Swiss side. Oh well, they still have Europa League football to look forward to.

 

Rostov with a crucial away goal and Copenhagen leading 1-0 at home to APOEL.

Man City killing Steaua Bucharest. Could be at least 5-0. Aguero has missed 2 penalties. Kolarov has hit the post. 

I hope they are not drawn in our group. It would be painful and take away a lot of the fun of the CL.

You can't be drawn against a club from your own country in the group stage

 

Not sure when you can in the knockouts though

Phew!

 

I want to enjoy some novelty European side.

Not until the quarters.

Would love for Dundalk making it to the Champions League group stages - imagine what effect it could have on the club financially and the Irish football league in general.

A Turkish referee warrants Legia a penalty against Dundalk for handball. A very harsh decision. It was ball to hand, when will officials ever learn?
