Anything less than a full strength team in most of the preceding games and we'll struggle. 

Too many 2nd string players in the E L and we'll struggle equally. 

At the back a concern, can the currently fit and the returning defenders play 2 /3 times a week?

It is pretty much the worst possible group we could have drawn if we were considering putting out weaker sides to see us out in a few of the group games.  We will have to be at full strength for these.  There's no resting players in there for me otherwise we will struggle to make it out of the group.

It really isn’t. Spartak are in woeful form and Legia are run of the mill. We could have drew Sociedad or Betis in Pot 3 rather than a team currently 10th in the Russian Premier League

Sounds like a plan mate! What flights you on?

I'm torn on whether to fly out from Luton which is nearer but the flight times are pretty crap or Manchester. Think I'm looking at Manchester which is:

I'm going Warsaw, who wants a fcukin ale?

I am still debating whether to get flights to Warsaw or not. Luton was the one I looked at, even though the return flight was early doors...

 

The other option is I go Millwall (and no, unfortunately both is not an option). Would prefer to actually be in the stadium to watch the game so Warsaw is a risk.

I’m lucky enough to book a flight to Warsaw for £26. If it doesn’t come off, it’s not the worst thing I’ve spent £26 on. I spent £25 on a round of the worst beer imaginable at Norwich on Saturday. Just been a coueple of weeks on the homemade Ham Sandwiches rather than the meal deals at work for lunch. 
 

Getting tetchy about Naples now - if it goes much more it’s in an area where I wouldn’t want to lose my money. Gutted about Moscow - £180 return flights for a week out but the Russians haven’t allowed foreign nationals without 14 days quarantine for months

I've heard about a blanket ban on all away games for Group games.. HOWEVER there is a potential for fans to be allowed for CL & EL games but no away fans at International fixtures(doesn't make sense but hey ho) IF we can travel then sweet :D

It will be if they don't allow them? Clubs have asked for fans just up to FIFA/UEFA now.. 

Fingers crossed.

I'm sure you're aware, but these will be from different Warsaw airports.

 

Wizz Air fly to Chopin, which is on the edge of the city and a short bus/train ride in.

Ryanair go to Modlin, which is much further north, and can be a bit trickier to get to.

Yeah, I’ll figure it all out.

That's a horrific draw for us to he honest. 

 

Moscow will be a serious slog of an away game and both Napoli matches will be tough. We won't be able to rest up and rotate the squad so easily in a lot of that.

im Sure they will cope

Moscow also handily now on a Wednesday at 3.30 UK time meaning we can arrive back in the UK around 11 that evening.

Looking at that 6am return made me book back to East Mids, I’m ill just thinking about it.

Yes I know but was thinking the boozy night would be the night of the match on the Thursday, followed by a nice day and quiet/pleasant evening in Warsaw on the Friday. Then an early start Saturday morning to travel home.

Fwiw, I've emailed the tour operator Sport Options to ask they'd consider doing a trip to.Moscow. 

 

They are looking at a Chelsea trip to St Petersburg so asked if they'd look at us too. 

 

They have some.kind of local contact/infrastructure over there as they did loads of flight/coach/Hotel world cup trips back in 2018
