Can't make up my mind whether I would prefer an "easy" draw with non-glamorous teams or a hard one with Barca et al.

I really fancy going to the Camp Nou etc but if we really want to think like we are in the CL to stay then we should want the easiest draw possible.

Nice to have these type of dilemnas, at least for the next 20 mins

19 mins to lift-off.

The draw won't start until 5:30 or so. UEFA likes to draw things out, like FIFA does at the World Cup draw, just not as extreme.

I think having an easy draw would probably be the worst thing for us, we always do much better rising to occasions than dealing with ones where we're expected to do well.

I tell you what, I'm gonna enjoy every second of the show even if it's an hour to the actual draw itself. Just being part of the precedings makes it magic.

To be fair, he's one of the good ones. He was cheering us on last night and was very happy when Defoe scored which isn't easy for the Spammers. :grin:
