Great.

Not that far to travel then......

[Drewsome]

How Soon can I get a ticket?

[Guest severininho]

There's a lot of quality in the draw for the first round, even half the teams in the second qualifying round have the beating of us...

 

I just hope we either come up against a beatable side or a giant like Fiorentina, Galatasary or Bayern Munich.

 

Will be amazing if we somehow managed to get to the group stages though

[Guest seve_no1]

it would be gr8 if we got bayern munich  as i wasnt alive the last time they came calling. altho we probably wouldnt reach the group stage in that case, r bohemians in the uefa cup this year? cause am sure we'd thump them at pittodrie this time!

[Guest swaddon]

Nivver mind the first round or the group stages, we're going to win the tournament! I'll be taking my seat at Eastlands or whatever it'll be called next year to watch Russell Anderson lift the UEFA Cup.

[Drewsome]

Swaddon,

 

That rates an applause fae this Red Blooded Don!

Only 31 days til the draw!!

Looking over that list is a mouthwatering prospect, but depressing at the same time. Blackburn, Hamburg and Atletico Madrid all in the qualifiers...

A team fae a sunny spot in europe will do me nicely!

[Guest innesciver]

It would be good to reach the group stages.  I would like more than one round though.  How many ties do we need to win to get to the gropus???

Em I think we just have to win one tie then were in the groups. One home leg and one away leg.

 

Correct me if im wrong

[Sweetchuck]

Yup. We enter in the first round proper, which is the stage before the groups are drawn.

[Drewsome]

Can't wait!  Bring 'em on.

 

I wanna go to Manchester this spring!

[Holyjoe]

I forget how these things work... but we may (or may not?) be seeded, and thus will face one of these sides?

Not sure what to make of Dunfermline's chances... they're facing a recently-relegated Swedish outfit who only qualified via the UEFA Fair Play table. They'll both be happy with their draw.
