1-1 McHugh 83 mins

£1335 FFS i could have 2 weeks in Florida for that money..

No just blatant profiteering, 12K crowd probably made them in excess of 500 K in gate receipts alone, add merchandise, catering and its a tidy sum. Even taking their costs into acount, Madrids fees etc they are still making a healthy profit., but the game was a sell out so the bournemouth fans must be happy with it.

Running a bus or driving to these places sounds like a good idea when you are pished, only 48 hrs according to Google maps, straight road etc, nae bother but you would need to be Feckin mental to attempt it Remember the bus to Katowice in 91 for Motherwells first European adventure, 3 days to get there 10 mins before the Final whistle !!!

Got to agree with all of that..Uefa opened up the tournament to include nation not even in Europe, ie Georgia,Israel ffs in the pursuit of more cash, tv deals etc. Its nonsense that teams like Motherwell are being financially challenged just to get to a game. Back in May when we tied up second place in the SPL every Motherwell fan was excited at the prospect of another European adventure..now after the boot in the baws that was the draw probably only a dozen will get there (decorator and his camera crew).. Is that a fitting reward for runners up spot, i think not.

Its the team i have supported for over 40 years in a home European match, if it was £40 a ticket i would be there. This may be one of those great european nights and a fantastic performance to hopefully get the tie won before the away leg, is it worth missing it for the sake of £5 or £6 more than a bog standard boring SPL game..i think not.

That wont please Decorator..his pictures will be ruined.

unless they invest some serious money which they dont have the players they have may well get them to the SPL but thats all. They wont be back challenging for titles any time soon. They are welcome to Hateley we dont need him anymore

I know its early days but has anybody heard if the away leg is being televised. Might be a chance for Motherwell to make some cash and organise a live feed to the cooper suite.

Livescore given goal to Jack Smith..Anier might be worth a punt

thats how i feel as well..but they were the lowest ranked of the 6 seeds, they may be full of Brazillians but even they have shit players..the good ones are playing in Spain and Italy. We will pump them..looking forward to Q4..

Is Krasnodar technically in Europe !!! A feckin nightmare of a draw, given where it is, visa's required etc still we have had some good draws in recent years so we were probably due a shit one. Its a bit of a boot in the baws after the high of Faddy signing, just hope we get somewhere better in Q4

It will be streamed live from UEFA site http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/newsid=1973149.html#stage+europa+league+third+qualifying+draw

+1 thats the draw i am hoping for as well, 2nd choice would be seville

Swansea...no thanks, dont think that one would be winnable

Well done to St Johnstone..Scottish football needs more results like that. They get the coefficient up so the whole country benefits. Its a pity Hibs got pumped to spoil what would have been a very unusual week for Scottish teams in Europe.ie everybody winning

I dont get emails is it official yet

BBC quoting SMC saying Faddy signing a new contract is a done deal..page updated at 4.24 today http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/23365489

The pressure will be off tomorrow, Faddy wont be the main topic, it will be the build up to the Euro draw.

your obsession with wanting to visit the shiteholes of Europe, mingle with the locals and mens dress sense is unhealthy.

So going by all the pant wetting is Faddy still the messiah or a very naughty boy ?

He was and he did, but was not on the park long enough to judge him on last night. But i agree about ZFA, he looked good last night, would like to see him get a run in the team

Anywhere warm and sunny with anykind of bar will do for me

When Randolph went i was up for giving Hollis a chance to claim the No1 spot, but after seeing him last night, he gives me the fear i only hope big Gunnar stays fit.

I thought the guy had a decent game, worked hard,probably should have done better with his 1st half chance.He looks to have some pace..i would take a chance on him, he could do well.
