Big Stall Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Moscow would be fuckin' brilliant. Â Â As much as I'de love to see Moscow, it would be too expensive for me to get there at the moment. Given that we are Motherwell and futurequalification for europe is far from guaranteed, I would love an accesible glamour tie that a couple of thousand 'well fans can get to like we all did for Nancy. Better to share the fun rather than look at photos on the internet from a few fortunate 'well fans. IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 it costs about 120 quid just to get a visa for russia so sack that. Â i'd love to go to moscow but not for the fitba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 There would be a certian irony if we progressed and we were paired with BATE Borisov. I can confirm Brown and Knox have already seen them in action this season.........and weren't overly impressed Wouldn't be the ideal trip though as mentioned.

Finlay Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 So me thinking that the Group stages is up next .............. is wrong  If you mean group stages after Aaeslund then, yes. Another two legged affair (in which Dun Utd will join the competition) then the group stages. Chances are we might need to beat Man City, Juventus, Liverpool, Dortmund, PSV, and so on to get to this point. We'd need to be as jammy as Aberdeen a few years ago to pull this off.

Burn_Broomfield Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 How good are Palermo? I know nothing about them. Â Â Very. Excellent players in Miccoli, Pastore, Nocerino, Hernandez. Have just signed the rejuvinated Massimo Maccarone from Siena and Mauricio Pinilla(ex Hearts). They have lost Edinson Cavani, Mark Bresciano, Simon Kjaer, Fabio Simplicio, Davide Lanzafame, Raggi from the squad so far this summer though. Will definitely be in the market for some quality players over the coming weeks to replace the good players that won't be in the side next season.

maxywell Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 any chance we could get ajax?i know they are in the cl but there's a fair chance they'll drop into the europa after drawing 1-1 at home to paok.imo this would be the perfect draw for us,a 'glamour' tie and 1 that would be,well might be stretching it a bit to say winnable but they have been really poor in europe recently and they are no better than the OF so i dought it would be a hammering.

Cakes Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 I heard that too. I've seen it mentioned in other places as well but as to how true it is, I'm not sure. A bye would be a terrific result in the draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
