    I think you might want to add B. Jerusalem (if they get through) and Spartak Moscow to that list. Israel is by no means the easiest of places to go, and although on paper we are galaxies apart I wouldn't fancy drawing them. As for Spartak, aren't they in the middle of their season? The obvious fitness element would be a major factor if we were to draw them, and the synthetic surface could cause us a problem or two. Besides, seeing as we'll as be heading to Moscow next May I think we could do without this long haul this early :D

    Anyway, enough speculation, bring on the draw!

    Not the best draw, but by no means the worst. No worries for this tie.

    Reiterate-DO NOT KEEP CHECKING FLIGHTS!

    Game arrangemenets released at 3pm after meetings between execs, tv etc.....

    Then use www.skyscanner.net to check flight prices and times to save people bumping up prices, cheaper for everyone.

    This is a public service announcemenet brought to you by someone who plans to go to one of these.

    Thank you.

    sorry,

    I can only use my powers for predicting Liverpool fc results, sadly I can only use it sparingly.
