    It's a pot system, we would not have been drawn in place of lokeren in the sense we'd get their group

    Group B is brilliant for away days - all of these would be ace:

    FC Copenhagen, Club Brugge, Torino, Helsinki

    Someone sticking their hand in a bucket and picking out a ball, not knowing what the slip of paper inside says on it, is random.

    yes but there's certain teams other teams automatically avoid and what not, it's not a fully open draw

    Impressive - but I just wish they would get on with it - and stop whining, it's done and dusted - move on!

    Our pot place goes on coefficients. We wouldn't have been in the same place as Lokeren like if it was a standard cup knock-out draw.

    No we wouldn't, the groups are decided on coefficients and had we won, we'd have got Estoril's place.

    We had too high a coefficient to be in pot 4, so couldn't possibly have been in Lokeren's place.

    Going back to the legia thing, are they not being a bit 2 faced here saying its about money as to why there out yet they want champs league for the money? I know its a harsh penalty but they did break the rules so to speak.
    If it was a league game or domestic cup game with not so much financial gain would they appeal the decision?
    The fans want to play against teams like barca, bayern, juve etc but the chairman etc just want the money.

    They'd all be easy to get to the grounds the cities and the airports. Not like Trencin and Lokeren.

    I've gone and exchanged my Euro's. I hoped I could be using them next month but I'm going to the Lake District - a bit like Premier League! (or Championship! - nearest I been there before was Carlisle)
