  1. How can Sporting Lisbon not be considered a "Glamour Tie"? Similarly, VfB Stuttgart, Lille OSC who are packed full of Internationals from France, Germany, Ivory Coast, Italy, Netherlands, Romania, Serbia etc... Two play to near 50000 crowds and the other will be moving to a 50k Stadium. There is a few UEFA final appearances thrown in there aswell. Mental..

     

    As a Odense supporter I must say I'm satisfied with the draw. We could have ended up in a group with 3 East-European teams, instead we got 3 good trips (Madrid, Bern and Stuttgart). I see VfB Stuttgart as a glamour tie, the city of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, a stadium with 52.000 spectators (limited to 41.000 due to construction). We are playing Stuttgart when the traditional Christmas market is on (Weihnachtsmarkt). That is perfect. I hope you will qualify next year.

     

    Btw. I was given the responsibility to take care of a Scottish flag and that I will do, I will bring to Bern and Stuttgart.

  2. By my reckoning we'd have occupied the slot that was eventually taken by Lech Poznan, so we missed out on Man City, Juventus and Red Bull Salzburg in Group A.

     

    What was your coef. when the europa league started? As Far as I can see you would take Gents spot, but nothing is sure since Gent was limited in what groups they could end in and you would have been free, so nothing is certain.

  3. Hi all Well fans.

     

    I just want to thank you for a good fight, it was a pleasure to meet many of you in Odense. Sadly only one team could qualify, and damn we have been in your shoes several times. Good luck in the SPL, I will keep updated about your performances. Even though many of you dislike our players (i.e. Djemba for mouth and rulling, and I agree) I hope you can spare some positive energy if we are facing City or Liverpool.

     

    Regards

    P.s. Could be funny to watch a game on Fir Park vs. Celtic or Rangers

  4. I think they are saying that to get people in the gate. There is always two or three cameras filming the game in the TV gantry every game we play at Fir Park.

     

    If that is the case, then there wouldn't be any reason for the Danish TV to say they are not able to show the game due to no TV signal. Normally there are TV at most games, but not always the OB van is there to broadcast the game to the TV channels. This i most likely the case here.

  5. Its a satellite channel - Al Jazeera sports - so you need a dish and receiver for hot bird, also think you need a card for it as well...

     

    anyway you should find an internet stream on myp2p or iraqgoals

     

    here is the myp2p page with the game listed so there is a good chance of a stream

    How should the game be sent on any channel, when there is NO TV at Fir Park this evening. Both Motherwell and OB has announced that the game is not sent on any TV channel. The danish TV stations are not able to sent the game, because there is no one who is producing the game for TV.

  6. We are almost never differ start 11. In total perhaps 13 players are used by our stupid coach. Today we drew against Brøndby after being up 2-0, one man more. But ref was aweful, and was directly involved in the comeback. Again, we stopped fighting and started to watch football. Fourth time this season a team scores in the last 5 min.

  7. I'am expecting the following start 11.

     

    1. Roy Carroll

    2. Espen Ruud 3. Atle Roar Håland 5. Anders Møller Christensen 15. Chris Sørensen

     

    19. Eric Djemba-Djemba

    21. Rurik Gislason 11. Johan Absalonsen

    4. Hans Henrik Andreasen

     

    10. Andreas Johansson

    7. Peter Utaka

  8. Latest update from DK - it is rainy, and has rained for none-stop 24 hours. It looks like we are going to play water polo :) Right now the Billund Airport is closed, it drowned in a cloudburst. It will open again, when the water is back on a fair level - no fear, you will manage to get here in time :(

  9. I don't know that much about scottish football, when it comes to clubs outside glasgow. But at our own forum ppl think it's 90/10 in our favour - i think we'll pass, but i don't think it'll be with a 3 or 4 goals margin. This season we prob. have the strongest team in many years, but we havn't seen it work as a team yet : )

     

    No need to exaggerate - most people believes in a close game, perhaps 60/40. Besides after watching most of the game Motherwell - Hibs, I would say it is going to be interesting. Our strengths looks like your weaknesses and visa versa. I believe in 3-1 in Odense, and then Motherwell 'only' needs a 2 goals victory at home.

  10. >a few questions to any Odense fans

     

    Most answers are provided, but I will add some comments.

     

    >where is the best place to eat?

    It is not cheap to eat in DK, not like it can be in i.e. Spain. But I would recommend Restaurant Carlslund, known for the all you can eat Danish omelette menu. It is about 30 min walk from the inner city, but the walk is quite nice - just follow the small river, when you pass the zoo (the zoo is on both sides) just cintunue a bit more, then cross the river and continue into the forest. On the way back go to Carlsens Kvarter, one of the most famous places in DK for the selection of beers. It is 50kr beers but worth trying.

     

    >where about are the best and cheapest bars situated?

    Ryans offered you are good deal, else some of the bars near Ryans are 'cheap', i.e. Sir Club. At Sir Club you find pool tables and table soccer. Near the House of H.C. Andersen, the Casino and Radisson Hotel there are two smaller bars called Lørups Vinstue and Restaurant Grøntorvet (eating and drinking place) and another bar is Bar Rar in Dronningensgade.

     

    >anything to be careful of?

    Yes, the cyclist (inclusive me).

     

    >are there any night clubs open on thursday?

    City Arkaden, Australien Bar (or A Bar), Blomsten og Bien and perhaps Den Glade Viking. Thursday is the only day where the average is above 20 on A Bar.

    are there any student bars? Do not fear you need to show ID that proofs you are under 27, only rumours - but expect you need to show ID (picture id, remember your passport) on all night clubs.

  11. May be a good thing.

    I would say that odds has not changed - we can expect a close game. You will probably be a bit more defensive in Odense, and hope to score an away goal and we will not suicide because we know it is going to be close over two games, and therefore need to prevent away goals. Beside that I saw some qualities in your team that will make it very difficult for our team, and visa versa.

  12. I predicted a close game, where we would be challenged in relation to break down there defence, but i turned out we scored twice in 20 minutes, and went on cruise control. Another two goals was scored in first half, one for each - one of our defenders made a very stupid penalty. Our teams top score is normally Peter Utaka, the little brother of John Utaka, but right now it is our midfielder Hans Henrik Andreasen (5 goals, + 1 in the EL). Utaka scored 2 goals in EL, and his first league goal to day. It seems that we have found our preferred starting 11, but due to a one match suspension we probably need to find another set-up for the game on Thursday. All players there where injured last week played today, instead Thomas Helveg was injured. Beside this short summary and updating, there was not much to say about the game today.

  13. If you run out of money or cannot exchange before departure - then another possibility is to exchange with some of our guys who has booked for the return match or eventually contact me - I need some pounds later this year.

  14. You can also exchange money here in DK if you miss the opportunity to do before you leave. If you have a VISA card you can pay almost everywhere. I would say many danes almost never use anything else than VISA/Dankort (the danish credit card).

  15. There should be plenty of tickets. You should buy tickets for the away area or what ever they call it for this game. It is the Nordea Tribune. The ticket price is 150 dkr (£17). I am not sure why it is not possible to buy them online yet - perhaps due to season ticket option to buy first.

     

    If you cannot wait you can contact OB and ask, use this email: ob@ob.dk - they normally respond in a day.

  16. few questions regarding Billund airport to Odense

     

    there are 4 of us arriving on the thursday AM ryanair flight from stanstead, is the train the best option?

    how much is it?

    is it worth booking in advance to reduce cost?

     

    with the recession, a few of us are shortly to be laid off, so we need to watch the cash.

    Is it ok in denmark to bevvie on the streets?

     

    we are coming back on the morning friday flight, so we are not bothering with a hotel.

    What time do the bars generally close in Odense?

     

    thanks.

     

    I don't believe you save anything if you book in advance. The trip Billund - Odense i normally not a place where you can save money.

     

    Since it is a Thursday evening you probably need to go the Australien Bar to find a "bar" where you can stay until 04.00. I guess Ryans are forced to close around midnight. Eventually contact the Irish Bar - Ryans and ask whether they can make special night for you Motherwell supporters. I cannot find a homepage nor an email address, but they should have a Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=7031706910).

  17. I don't known whether anybody mentioned it - but to you who are supposed to stay over on the Congress Center. It is almost as far away from the Stadium as you can get. But then again, it is our headquater - so perhaps you will meet a couple of the bosses (Kim Brink and Thomas Christensen). No players are 'staying' at the hotel, only the administration.

  18. Roy Carroll are almost for sure ready this weekend. I would argue that we would do better with Alexander, since Carroll is terrible to protect the field.

    Johan Absalonsen got a small injury in todays national team training, but most likely he will be ready for the game.

    Chris Sørensen is our captain he got a more difficult injure against Copenhagen. He got injured in a tackling, and got a hematoma on the thigh.
