    I think Chelsea will get raped by Kazan.

    Spurs will beat Basel.

    We need to get an away goal at least vs Benfica away. If we can come away with a 1-1 draw, that would be great.

    Looks like Celtic gave them a good run home and away in the champions league so I fancy our chances.

    Just a thought (or dream) if the 3 English teams get through to semi then 1 is guaranteed to be in final<whistle>

    I think it's a great draw for you boys, you avoided Spurs and Chelsea. Looking at the draw, you have every chance of winning this....

    If all three English teams get to the semi finals none of them will be 5under1and.

    Quality side in great form. They under performed in the CL but they are unbeaten in their league (18 wins 4 draws from 22). They'll expect to win. Celtic were superb in the CL, so while on the face of it you'd say we have a good chance, we have it all to do for me. Who cares, if you'd offered me a European quarter final at the start of the season I'd have snapped ya fecking hand off!

    I am glad we missed the other English team, if and it's a big if we play them in the final we could beat them on a one of match like we have this season

    Playing away first is good, we need to raise our game tho as I'f we play like we have been and riding our luck we will get knocked put

    You cannot just switch the friggin derby game to suit yourselves!, if i was O Neil i would refuse to switch the game and the F A and all can do nowt about it because of the Boro fiasco in 1997 O Neil could go to court over it, as it has nothing to do with SAFC whether you lot play in the europa league or not. The games should have been played on a wednesday night at 6pm.

    Whatever happens is out of the control of myself, you, and most other people. It is not worth worrying about.

    It comes from UEFA you plank!

    Any team playing in europe is granted 48 hours after a european game, hence why the game has been put back to Sunday because they play on Thursday.

    Getting Benfica is the hardest draw apart from Chelski or Spurs...

    I'm not confident of beating them, but then I wasn't confident of getting to the Quarter-Finals! :emoticon-0102-bigsm
