Guest Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 What about Wales, Northern Ireland or at a push the Republic? Still not a chance really. Its my induction period at my new work so I can't take any time off I don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Say what ye want about Wikipedia, but it's quality when it comes to the currently runners-up in the World Cup qualifying and who we'll get in the Europa League first qualifying round... UEFA_Europa_League_2009%E2%80%9310#First_qualifying_round Assuming that is an accurate list, I think my preferred opponent would be Lisburn Distillery. A wee Northern Irish team for a wee jaunt across on the ferry would be good, but I'd prefer to avoid Linfield. Or a wee drive down to Wales would be nice. With Oslo and the World Cup playoffs (keep the faith!) coming up I can't afford either the holidays or the money for jaunts back to the Faroes or Macedonia, so from a purely personal point of view I'll be keeping the fingers crossed we get the Welsh or Northern Irish mobs. This is obviously assuming we actually get into Europe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Kerse Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Nah, surely one of these two would be magic: Differdange[11] <LI> 3rd placed team of Luxembourg National Division 2008–09 A wee jaunt to Luxembourg , 99p RyanScare to Frankfurt and you are practically there, Mainland Europe so not dodgy, sunny weather etc.. And in the next round, just for the name so we can all say 'Let's go and get pished and watch Dinamo Bender !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Differdange is at the moment the second in the Luxemburg league but they are still in the half final of the luxemburg Cup. So at the moment Jeunesse esch take the 3rd place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I think a wee trip to somewhere like Luxembourg or Andorra would be awesome, as has been said, a queasy jet over there, and a chance of actually beating a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daver Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 We stopped in Luxembourg on our travels between Charleroi and Nancy but it was only in service stations so can't say much other than it's very easy to get to and the service stations devoted a lot of space to merchandise for keeping the lonely lorry driver amused at night!

Shaka Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 went for a magical mystery tour in Luxembourg city on way to Frankfurt Hahn after Nancy game when the motorway was closed, and I must say, the Ladies of the night are something else! not that we stopped, but not bad to look at when going round in circles lost at 2 in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myteam Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 here,s hoping on sat. the team behave on the pitch & the fans behave by not going on the pitch as fans behaviour counts towards the fair play & it would be a pity if the team do all the right things & the fans (if they invade the pitch) let us down at the final hurdle. cheer the team on sat on the right side of the pitch all you well fans, & maybe europe here we go again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu92 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 The Mighty Well, seeded for European competition - brilliant! Sadly T In The Park, which I've already spent over £200 on, starts on the 10th, with the second leg being on the 9th. So, from a selfish point of view, I'm hoping for an away tie first against whoever tbh, although Wales or one of the Irelands would be good.

Chris Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I say we give the stewards spears Braveheart style, to prevent the wee bastards from running onto the pitch!

Steelmen Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 a wee bit of history if / when we make it into the Europa League next season. We will be the only Scottish club to play in the final Uefa Cup and the first Europa League. Turns out there is a whole new trophy. Not exactly a massive achivement but hey it is something Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 has that been confirmed by the SFL? I remember reading somewhere else that the other option was a preliminary round with 4 or 6 teams so that the SPL teams would all enter at the usual times. Now confirmed.... BBC SPL trio face early start in cup By John Barnes Three Scottish Premier League clubs will have to start next season's domestic campaign two weeks ahead of the rest of the 12 teams. They will be competing in the Co-operative Insurance Cup at the first-round stage, which begins on 1 August. It is a knock-on effect from Scotland winning six places in European competition next season. Qualifying clubs are exempt from the competition until the third round to assist their European challenge. Normally, SPL clubs, who are not involved in Europe, begin their League Cup campaign at the second-round stage. The 32 lowest clubs in Scottish football will participate in the first round of the League Cup. It just means we'll have a competitive game a fortnight earlier than expected Hamilton Accies secretary Scott StruthersNewly-promoted St Johnstone will be one of the three SPL teams involved. The two lowest-placed teams - between Hamilton Accies, St Mirren and Inverness Caledonian Thistle - after this weekend's final round of league fixtures will be the others. Falkirk, who are currently bottom of the SPL, are excluded as they will be involved in Europe because of their place in the Scottish Cup final. The Scottish Football League on Wednesday notified the SPL clubs that they could be back in competitive action earlier than expected. Hamilton, who could be affected if they finish second or third bottom of the SPL, said they are comfortable with the situation. Accies secretary Scott Struthers told BBC Scotland: "If that's the case, we'll just have to live with it. "It just means we'll have a competitive game a fortnight earlier than expected."

Guest 'Flow Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Sure you guys know this but for those that don't, the draw for the 1st and 2nd round takes place on June 22nd - A full ten days before the first game... If we get into Europe then ten days isn't a whole lot of time to organise a potential trip to Kazakhstan / Faroe's / Armenia etc Anyway, the Club are currently debating the best way to cope with fans demands for tickets/travel (particularly at short notice) at the moment to try and avoid the farce we seen last year (if we do indeed get in that is)....

Gaag Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 do you anticipate the same level of demand for a 1st qualifying leg given A: the date and B: the real possibility of progressing to the next round? Still Moldova would be mental! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
