    Initial response was ffs when we got this group, but I'm actually with the rest now it's really exciting.

    Let's have a good go at these giants.

    Can't wait to see us getting raped by Mbappe because we have no pace at the back.

    The Yellow Wall
    The San Siro
    Mbappe @ SJP

    What a draw - no pressure on us now, all about enjoying it and any points won are a massive bonus!

    Quietly hoping it will kick the club into over drive today for a CB!

    Darren Eales is some guy!

    Bayern Munich and Real Madrid would have been a group of death..but i feel like all these teams are beatable, maybe not PSG if Mbappe is on it.

    Can't ****ing wait.

    It’ll be spine tingling. We need a LOT of work mentally if we’re even getting a point. Just look at Liverpool last week and the Cup Final. Turned into schoolboys.

    It's amazing to think in just two years we've gone from hoping to stay up to watching nufc draw AC Dortmund and PSG and seeing people predicting us to get out the group into the next round.

    Flight to Amsterdam. Train from Schiphol to Dortmund via Moenchengladbach.
    Cheapest way to get to Dortmund.

    Just reading ticket allocations aren't great ... don't think we'll get the numbers we did 20 years ago.

    I have a good few k spare like so thinking I'll just wing it... literally

    Dortmund will be around 3,500; Milan 3k, PSG 2,500.

    There's always the chance none of those teams have heard of Newcastle and may not turn up for that game which could free up tickets in the home section!

    Good news is that Dortmund release tickets for general sale. Milan - Champions League games you have to provide proof of address to buy tickets in home end - i.e., Italian address.

    The audible gasp during the draw suggests the whole of Europe knows who we are, and furthermore didn’t want us in their group!!

    We are the usurpers coming to spoil the party.

    Clubs here don't like playing us. Imagine what Europe's elite think. When Guardiola calls you dangerous other coaches notice.

    I’m surprised considering we have no squad depth and our signings this summer haven’t hit the right notes <whistle>
