Was just thinking that today, it would be utterly fucking brilliant. Few of the the english clubs have been caught out at this stage in the last few seasons so you just never know.

English clubs to be eliminated before the group stage since 2010:

  • 2016-17 - West Ham - PO - Astra Giurgiu (ROU) - Lost 2-1 on agg
  • 2015-16 - West Ham - 3QR - Astra Giurgiu (ROU) - Lost 4-3
  • 2015-16 - Southampton - PO - Midtjylland (DEN) - Lost 2-1
  • 2014-15 - Hull - PO - Lokeren (BEL) - Lost 2-2 on away goals
  • 2010-11 - Aston Villa - PO - Rapid Wien (AUT) - Lost 4-3
  • 2009-10 - Aston Villa - PO - Rapid Wien (AUT) - Lost 2-2 on away goals

Would be fantastic if Aberdeen could add Burnley to that list.

It’s a shit draw for Burnley to be fair, as the boy says, get in Europe finally and draw Aberdeen.

Aberdeen are probably one of the strongest teams Burnley could get and are used to preparing for these games in early July.

I hope Aberdeen pump them!

Not the worst draw for Aberdeen, Burnley is nearer than Pittodrie for their central belt fans.

:lol:

I'm sure it'll feel very foreign to them. 😄

My first European trip with Motherwell was Llanelli, so Aberdeen will be like Rome, Paris, Madrid in comparison to there; or Burnley for that matter.

:lol:

Think that's the hardest draw Aberdeen could have got.  

Conversely, we are the most difficult non-seeded team that they could have got.

Burnley is the bowels of the feckin universe. Any sheep making the trip should be prepared for bother. As has been said before by others.....hope they pump them! 👍

Their message board comes across as very respectful.

Am I the only person thinking, what the hell are you lot talking about. Burnley will absolutely ride Aberdeen??

Would you feel that same way about Celtic... who we defeated in our last game... by a clean sheet... on their patch... on flag day... to end Rodgers' 2 year home undefeated record?

I have some experience of Burnley. It's a bit of friendly advice, either take it or leave it. 👍

Good good. Sorted anyway. Train down to Burnley early Thursday morning. Last train back to Preston after the game. Bide the night there and train up the road on Friday £38. Cheapest Euro trip ever. I'm more concerned about getting a ticket. 

I'd be more concerned about getting back to Preston on Northern Rail.
