    If we can make it through tomorrow, a trip to Lisbon to play Sporting would be rather nice at the *** end of November. Although Lazio would involve a trip to Rome, it is perhaps better for all our teams to avoid playing in places like Turkey and Italy which can be a bit volatile and sometimes erupts into our fans running into trouble through no fault of their own.

    So if we get through tomorrow, we could get Dortmund, Fiorentina and Monaco! <yikes>

    If we get through we cannot play Tottenham or Liverpool. Need trips to the sun to top up the suntan although Fiorentina would be good for the many fans on this site who may like the art and culture of Renaissance Italy.

    I'd love a trip to Fiorentina, but I think I'd rather that trip was a cultural one rather than a football one. I'd be a little worried about any trouble in Italy.

    Dortmund would be great, as would Bordeaux, Anderlecht, Bilbao, Celtic and Ajax.

    I actually want us to have three 'big' clubs. If we're in Europe, we might as well have a proper experience.

    Going to be hard, but I've laid in the whisky, chocolate and valium.
