Fox in the North Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 At least we don’t have to beat Atlético this time, or travel to Vienna to duck and cover from bonkers Red Star fans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costock_Fox Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 Providing fans are allowed in Ferencvaros (if they don’t get champions league) would be great Budapest is outstanding and their atmosphere is great, the arse end of nowhere in Scandinavia and a completely random Eastern European for me. Milan is shit and I don’t fancy getting stabbed in Naples or Rome, Spain is alright, would take Lisbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in Budapest when Ferencvaros played Dinamo Zagreb in the champions league qualifier last year, best atmosphere I’ve been in. Was drinking pints of wine in the stands, what a night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s this we’ve got to play Thursday and Sunday and some Eastern European team. Who gives a shit. I just about understand it when teams like Liverpool, Man U etc. Who have consistently played CL complain but us trying to pretend we are too big for Europe is just daft. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brugge Antwerp, Porto Sporting, and Copenhagen will do. In fact I could get excited over a chance to **** Sporting over after our transfer dealings. Turnabout fair play and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twister Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 the team will put on a good run in the comp. but lets be serious the team lacks the depth to really compete in it next year I cant see them winning it, to be brutally honest, not even close will chilwell and maddison going I think quarters at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 Easy group would be good to rotate the squad, and then throw the kitchen sink at the knockout stages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's disappointing because this kind of shite filters it's way in to the stadium and just makes a mockery of our fanbase, albeit (hopefully) a minority. If we needed to win to get in to the Europa League on the final day of the season, I can guarantee there'd have been cheers in the stadium from fans if we were to draw/lose. Pathetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re in Europe for Christ sake, and some of you are MOANING??? Just as bad as the Man U fans thinking they’re entitled to champions league. Its a rubbish way to finish a season, but get a grip of yourself lads, seriously. Spot on. Top six finish, European football, Golden Boot for Vardy. Excellent season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Falling Foxes Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 I am concerned it might be a bit of a poison chalice. Could be a hang over from this afternoon but I see our participations biggest impact will be on our premier season. I think the so called top six will be exactly that next season and feel Sheff U and Wolves will be safely in the top half. We need a bigger, certainly stronger squad to cope and I cannot see Rogers, aided by Congerton, signing the quality we need. Too many games me thinks and consequently - at best - a 10th place finish.

Hammo Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 Group stage fixtures are 22 and 29 October, 5 and 26 November, 3 and 10 December, so two blocks of three successive European Thursday nights. Final qualifying round Is 1 October; group stage draw 2 October in Athens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 In terms of group draw, we should be equipped to get through with a fit and bolstered squad. We're likely to be in either Pot 2 or Pot 3 with our coefficient. On the basis of coefficients, the hardest draw we could possibly have received would've been: Sevilla PSV Leicester City Vitoria de Guimares With a full squad, that's very doable in my opinion. And that's a Group of Death worst case scenario. Take into account some of the teams who get into Pot 4 from places like Luxembourg, Kazakhstan and other such leagues and we should be OK. Wolves have had a superb run despite being some way off our best XI. The away days should be great too. Fewer tourists, bigger allocations, more winnable games and cheaper flights than some of the Champions League venues in the group stages and some real pedigree clubs; especially at the knockout stages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be allowed. Either a change of ownership or OH Leuven forfeiting their place would need to happen.

Legend_in_blue Posted 26 July 2020 Share Posted 26 July 2020 I get the feeling a lot of posters in this thread were not present for Yeovil Town at home. Good win though that one. I hope Atletico don't end up in it, because we all know what will happen then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
