Friday D-Day

europa-league-trophy.jpg

Here's the official notification from UEFA of the Europa League Fourth Qualifying Round draw, scheduled to take place in Nyon, Switzerland tomorrow (Friday) at 1.30pm Central European Time (12.30pm BST):

 

For the play-offs, the third qualifying round winners join the 15* losing sides from the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round and further teams who begin their European campaigns here.

The clubs are divided into seven groups for the draw. Within the groups, an equal number of sides are seeded and unseeded in accordance with the club rankings established at the beginning of the season. Teams from the same association cannot play each other.

For each group, balls containing the seeded sides are placed in one bowl and balls containing unseeded teams in another. A ball is taken from each bowl and placed in a large empty bowl in the middle, where they are shuffled.

 

The first club drawn plays the first leg at home.

 

(NB: be aware that draws can be reversed due to various circumstances though, such as avoiding the staging of two ties in the same city or location).

 

* there are 28 teams in the Champions League (listed below), which makes 14 winners in our eyes, not 15.

 

Fourth Qualifying Round tie dates:

 

Wed 22.08 or Thu 23.08.2012 1st Leg

Wed 29.08 or Thu 30.08.2012 2nd Leg

That's a matter of opinion rather than fact.

 

Id reserve judgement until we season Cisse for a full season this time around.

During the game a rubber chicken was been throw around the away end (as you do). It went up on to the scoreboard thing and after some pressure the bloke who's misguided throw had sent it up there, climbed up. How he didnt fall and break his neck is beyond me.

 

Weird ground, i remember there was a track around the pitch and a random speed boat there, cue Newcastle fans "singing" the bullseye theme tune

One of the great euro trips Mallorca like..Keith Barratt chartered 2 jumbos to get fans there...we saw a bloke singing in a bar one night who bore an uncanny resemblance to an ex boro scots/irish media slaver-mechant...cue endless choruses of "theres only one Bernie Slaven" from around 150 or so mags for about 10 minutes until he gave up and fucked off :D

 

I'd forgotten about the rubber chiken...good times :thumbup:
