    Spawny bastards, that's just about the dream draw for them. Not only do they have brilliant away trips they can realistically get out of that group.

    Good luck to them. It shows that it could happen to any team, City included.

    I suspect Porto won't be a walkover. The other's shouldn't be too difficult, they've also avoided any long distance journeys during midweek.

    There's no easy games in the CL.

    Unless you're playing Celtic.

    Great for their bank balance perhaps, exciting for the supporters and the players, but at what cost in regard of league position..? .. I can;t see that their squad is anywhere deep enough for a Euro campaign..

    Think all the English teams will struggle there to be honest.

    I know Leicester have a good draw on paper there, but I still think they'll find it a grind.

    Arsenal definitely out, cos they're feeble.

    I hope they give it a real go and progress as far as possible.

    No reason to think otherwise IMO.

    One major regret of Bruces time in charge was how meekly were exited the Europa League.

    How many of those badges were put in place by an owner on an ignorant & hate fueled mission to aggressively remove the club's name from, not only the badge, but also every piece of kit, merchandise, advertising, tickets, media, propaganda & anything else associated with the club that mentioned Hull City AFC solely because he had a childish spat with the City Council over not getting his own way.

    The name not being on the badge isn't the sole issue, although I'd prefer it if it were on there. The issue, that many can't seem to grasp, is what the badge represents namely an owner's spiteful dig aimed at a fan base that opposed him & won, an owner's lies, deceit & all round dishonesty. The Allam's will soon be dead to the club, all the **** that is here because of them should die with them, including the badge.



    Great draw for Leicester, **** draw for Celtic. Happy days.

    I honestly don't think Leicester supporters will give a flying **** if playing in the Champion's League, as Champions, in any way, affects their League position.

    That's how I felt about the Europa league.
