The Boofon Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Decent group. Avoid the Spanish. I'd go to Israel nae bother if they let us go. Link to comment
zoltanbuchan Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Got a mate from Peterculter who lives in Sofia, so fancy a trip to Bulgaria to play CSKA! Link to comment
ferlaytio Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Other than Real Sociedad I genuinely think it's an easier tie than Groningen- and they are nothing amazing. The Belgian team are decent so would rather avoid them too. I'd like the Greeks. Link to comment

Sonoftherock Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Decent group. I'd go to Israel nae bother if they let us go. I'd be more worried for the safety of any visiting fans in Aberdeen if The Jew Hunter (a.k.a. Jocky Balboa) gets hold of them. Link to comment
NPRC Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Pretty gutting that we miss out on seeding by one place. Link to comment
V for Vendetta Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 As someone said a lot of these may well be weaker opposition than Gronigen. Europa League Qualification process is crap. All teams should go straight into league stages for this competition - which is what was supposed to happen in the first place. Give smaller European clubs a chance to make a bit of cash and gain experience from a few guaranteed games. Link to comment
dave_min Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Not being seeded for the 3rd round means we'll more than likely be seeded for the play-offs. Which means we'll avoid Inter Milan, Spurs, Lyon and others. Which put that way sounds a little pish. Link to comment
Stoney Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Been to zimbru's stadium, We dont want to be going there. Edit - notice they have built quite a nice wee stadium Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Is it the same pish format as the last draw where all the ties in each group are decided with 1 draw and we don't know if we're (or Groningen of course) (but we all know it's us really) at home or away 1st leg? Tord you're on the ball with these things. What's the Jackanory? Link to comment
dave_min Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Home/away is decided by the order they come out the hat. They can be moved though. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Home/away is decided by the order they come out the hat. They can be moved though.At least they're not using those ridiculous goldfish bowls this time then. A move in the right direction. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 If we are drawn against tel-aviv then the away leg won't be played in Israel. http://www.uefa.org/about-uefa/news/newsid=2124836.html Link to comment
Tord31 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 3-0 down and second leg at a neutral venue its unlikely they'll get thru Link to comment

The Boofon Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 The Kazaks, Czechs or the Poles for me. Providing they beat their opponents. Wouldn't fancy the Belgium lot or the Spanish. Link to comment
dave_min Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 The Czechs. They're 1-0 up from the away leg and are terrible at football. Link to comment
TopDon Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Greeks or Poles would give us best chance of qualification Link to comment
