It's complicated and UEFA also like to secretly group teams in batches of around 8 teams a few days in advance of each draw just for shits and gigs.

This is pretty impressive work. I’d guess you’ve spent more time putting this together than we’ll spend actually playing in the tournament!

Good work! I've looked at  Fehérvár for some inspired/daft reason, an hour on the train from Budapest, great city to visit.

Mostly hoping for Larne though.

Unless I’m missing something I don’t see any Spanish teams, is there a reason for this?

I think Villareal are the sole Spanish representative, they enter the competition at the Play Off Round, along with the likes of West Ham and Nice. The Spanish, English, German, French and Italian associations/federations only have one representative each presently, unless and until one of their sides lose a Champions League or Europa League tie and filter down to the Conference.

In terms of former players that we have a realistic chance of resigning he is my top pick.

Isn't he sitting comfy with a 5-year contract in South Africa? I'd hardly call that realistic.

Whit? That's just about the only football thing I haven't talked about on here.

Sorry to burst the Safranko bubble I guess, but it makes less sense than pining for Shankland.

Do we think young Kieron Bowie might be one of our Fulham loanees?

A possibility. Did United not try and get him from Raith before Fulham signed him?

Yup. Big 5 only have 1 rep each in ECL (straight into PO round) and there'll be no filter down before the group stage as their teams go straight into the group stages of CL and EL.

You won't get any argument from me about that.

 

Same applies to betting adverts on tv as well.

As opposed to ruining local business by paying them back pennies in the pound?

Does that make United promoting and encouraging better?

[FIFE ARABIAN]

Utd gazumped by Hearts for Forrest.

Previously gazumped by Hibs for Doyle-Hayes and Hearts for Cammy Devlin. 

The Utd vision clearly isn't for everyone. 

[Gibby82]

Gambling advertising should be banned in football/sports though always find it weird how people are totally fine with bevvy sponsorships.

[invergowrie arab]

Yeah I really hate gambling companies being associated with sport but I said f**k all about Eden Mill.

My only justification is as far as I know Eden Mill are a real local company who employ people as well as killing people.

90% of the betting companies associated with sports you have never heard of are a front for all sorts of nasty activities. As well as their primary business which kills people.
