    Ajax have impressively got pumped by Rostov, which might make us 4th seeds unless someone else does us a favour. Amsterdam possibly a better trip than Yaroslavl though.

    So am I right in saying that we need at least two of the 'favourites' to get knocked out tonight in order for us to make it into pot 3

    Being the sensible soul I am these days, a trip to Amsterdam no longer has the same appeal.

    The Rijksmuseum and the flower market still appeal. Two hours staring at a coffee shop wall unable to move or speak, less so.

    West Ham playing in Europa and lead with an away goal (1-1 in first leg). Now....do we want them to crash and burn, but then have an easier season or do we want them to go through and have as hard a time as us.

    Stupid question....of course we want them to be destroyed. <laugh>

    Yep I'm 100% behind Astra.

    Hoping that WHam start up a similar annual fixture with them to use with Palace in the Cups......and that as tradition dictates WHam lose every year :D

    We'd be unfortunate to not get drawn with at least one perceived glamour job

    Not bothered who we get aslong as its not some midweek trek out to Russia or Ukraine. Got a feeling we will get one of the Italian big boys.

    I think Bilic has been quoted as saying transfer targets will be in doubt, if they drop out of Europe, so another reason for wanting them to lose.

    Yes. Fortunately Maribor lost their first leg 3-1 (away), and are level at 0-0 early in 2nd half. So as long as they don't turn that around, they'll be one of the two.

    I haven't looked at all the other current scores, but Maccabi are currently losing on away goals at HT, so they too could be one of the two.

    Haha West Ham! (Although if they did get knocked out, expect them to finish above us in the PL. But so what. Haha.)
