    It would be great fun.

    Maybe Ravenhill or Casement?

    Casement would be a runner if the GAA relaxed the 'foreign sport' rule, which I am not sure is very common?

    Not sure what the seated capacity is in Casement either.

    Dunno about the former but Casement has too many standing areas for UEFA's liking, I reckon.

    The PSNI aren't going to let it be played at Windsor, I don't think - they won't want too many Celtic fans in Belfast in July.

    It'll be at Solitude - 2,600 capacity.

    First leg is at home - I'm hoping the leg in Belfast is academic.

    I never even thought about Solitude not meeting UEFA guidelines.

    Those three Scottish teams are all managed by Irishmen, ironically.

    I'm thinking that Cliftonville will earn most of the profit from a 12,000 sell out, and only have to pay Linfield a fee. No point in cutting off your nose to spite your face.
