    I'll wager £1,000 to £1 that we do not draw Fenerbahce :p

    Fenerbache, Sociedad, & PSV I guess are the ones to avoid?

    Fenerbache won't be in it, they are banned.

    Besiktas are banned, too which means the 4th placed Turkish team will probably replace them (whoever they are).

    Fingers crossed we get one of Salzburg, Nordjaelland, Grasshoppers or Zulte Waregem.

    Yes, it will be Bursaspor for the Turkish slot. A slightly easier prospect than the other (banned) Turkish alternatives, but not by much.

    Whatever Turkish team is there wouldn't worry me, we might lose 1-0 over there but they're notoriously poor away from home.

    Real Sociedad could be a tricky opponent. A good team and one that can give us a decent test. We would also welcome back Carlos Vela, who had a great time in Spain.

    Let's hope we get Grasshoppers Zurich. I don't need another tense one like the Udinese one 2 seasons ago.

    I thought they were thrown out of the competition because of match fixing?

    Fenerbahce are apparently unbanned for the duration of qualifying, but may be tossed out of the competition up to the day before the CL draw, pending court decisions.

    Total bollocks if you ask me.
