I don't understand how he figures it out, but "Bert" was the highlight of this time of year. I was only just romanticising about the pounding the bookies in Swansea took when we went to Llanelli 1-0 down. Motherwell HT/ft and John Sutton 1st goal being the bets of choice. we were only pumped at home against Spurs, got a nil nil draw down at white hart lane, seem to remember Harry kane missing a pen and it took at Luis Suarez 88th minute goal to get Liverpool a 1-1 draw at Anfield to knock us out. David Templeton scored for us that night, wonder whatever happened to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies if that's duff info. That's correct. I can only assume points are awarded for individual matches as well as overall ties, because they've beaten Slask Wroclaw (who won the Polish League) and drawn with Trabzonspor, AEK Athens and Dynamo Moscow. They haven't actually won a tie against a "proper" team since they beat Borussia Moenchengladbach in the UEFA semi in 1987. Coleraine, Floriana, Glentoran, Hafnarfjordur and Principat from Andorra the only teams they've beaten since Borussia and Barcelona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if I can afford the time off though, because if we win we'll get a decent team (Rijeka/Groningen etc) the week after. I was at our supporters club do on Saturday night. Half the lads hope we get knocked out in the first round as really, it's all just a massive pain in the arse.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might have been better to draw a (beatable) higher ranked team in QR2 to then piggy back on that seeding for QR3 and give a better chance of getting to the play-off.

littleboyblue Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Then again, we took Rijeka's seeding last year, drew the unseeded Kairat and went out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
