See, this is why I prefer the Europa League, you get far more interesting ties. Roma, Rangers and Galatasaray are top tier, old school European fixtures.

Were the pots seeded? I'm just wondering if we managed to get top or second top seed from every group, because that's what it looks like.

They were but each team plays two teams from each of the four pots regardless of which pot they themselves were in. And some teams have low seedings because of how rarely they've been in Europe.

We avoided Nice or Athletic from pot four so though Hoffenheim is a tough enough game the other two would've surely been worse.

Missus had said she'll take me to the Ferencvaros game in Budapest for my Christmas present if I want (once it's not too expensive and is one of the games after mid-October). 🥰
Just need to see what date the match ends up being on and figure out logistics and pricing. Never done this (euro away game) before so any helpful pointers would be gladly received (going from Dublin).

Budapest is actually two sides of the river Buda & Pest.

Apart from that there is really fit Hungarian bird called Katerina who works in the Centra shop here in Campile, Wexford - She hates Hungary with a vengeance. Says it has been ruined by the Prime Minister Viktor Orban and she'll ndver go back while he is in charge. She has a really perfect body though !

There was - on her FB page which I saw when we became friends but she quickly deleted them, I wish I had saved them.

Wonderful multi coloured tattoo work down one complete side of her torso. I do love reading.

Just had email Alkmaar now on general sale, UEFA increasing the number of matches to increase income for clubs not always working , should think playing Man C at home the following week in league cup is affecting sales for Alkmaar.

I think it’s the price, so many home games in the Europa and a league cup game as well.
Should have priced it lower or done a package for all the EL games
