I must admit I don't know too much about the draw today. A year ago I was just a little more excited Are we seeded? Is there a list of possible opponents? Who is the toughest side we could face?
To quote something I've seen elsewhere: "Spurs are seeded in group 3 and will face one of Trabzonspor AŞ (TUR), FC Karpaty Lviv (UKR), Heart of Midlothian FC (SCO), Legia Warszawa (POL) or FK Ekranas (LTU)." This makes the above look correct: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011–1...fying_phase_and_play-off_round#Play-off_round Probably best to avoid the Turks or Ukrainians.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011–12_UEFA_Europa_League#Play-off_round There you go King, the list is at the bottom, we are seeded, I wouldn't get too concerned over our opponents....ironically it could be Young Boys again! Take PNP's link, apart from beating me to it, its better...mines ****e.
How come there is seven groups? Why not a straight draw between seeded and unseeded teams or even better an open draw, a match against Sevilla/Atletico Madrid/Roma to qualify would be quality.
Does Edinspur have a soft spot for Hearts? Could make things a bit more interesting for someone, atleast.
The draw is around 12.30 pm today, not sure if the draws on the telly but if it is more likely to be on 1 of the Euro Sport channels sky 410 or 411
The Europa draw is only for qualifying surely. Arsenal will be joining us in the league bit later this month.
