Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

Looking at that list, quite alot of teams from Eastern Europe. We want someone reasonably local so a team from Norway like Molde/Tromso or maybe Pasching from Austria or Grasshoppers from Switzerland would be good for us.

Yes, or possibly the Swedish team or Belgian
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

Im so happy that my season ticket package could include an illustrious home tie against JK Nomme Kalju!

Just hope we're away first as travelling to Romania or Georgia even with a heavy first leg advantage is hard from ideal 3 days before the NLD.

Molde would be nice. Might be able to get tickets for the match in Norway, with a bit of luck.
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

Getting tickets shouldnt be a problem. They have a decent sized stadium and never fill it up! And if you buy tickets among the regular home fans it shouldnt be a problem. They are quiet and dont care if you sing or shout a bit.
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

It'll be 1 of these 6

JK Nõmme Kalju (EST)
FC Thun (SUI)
FC Pasching (AUT)
FC Dinamo Tbilisi (GEO)
FC Astra (ROU)
FC Slovan Liberec (CZE)

Liberec would be nice (just one hour drive from Prague). The allocation will be around 400-500, so the 30LP may not be enough.
Pasching a is a solid option for me too
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

FC Pasching are in the third tier of Austrian football!!!! Got in by winning the Austrian cup last year

Them or the Estonians will do nicely.

Might be mistaken but didnt Dinamo Tblisi used to be a half-decent team in seasons gone by?

They did - I would imagine that they are the best of the bunch and worst travel wise. Preference has to be the swiss given the short flight and probably decent facilities, then the czechs or the austrians
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

Tricky tie for them. They will probably scrape through, but one can always hope they crash out to join us in the Europa league!

It will also impact their transfer plans as players wont commit til they know whether arse are through and their board will also be reluctant to spend too much til they know whether they're getting the CL pot of gold
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

Would be a great draw for everyone if we got them I think :)

Their stadium:

Capacity of just over 7k according to wiki, nice little stadium. Although I don't know if they would play there against us or try to move to a bigger venue either for added revenue or because of UEFA regulations....
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

How come?

Because we are in group 6 of the seeded teams and group 6 of the unseeded teams contain these teams:

JK Nõmme Kalju (EST)
FC Thun (SUI)
FC Pasching (AUT)
FC Dinamo Tbilisi (GEO)
FC Astra (ROU)
FC Slovan Liberec (CZE)

Based on club rankings.
 
Re: Europa League 2013-14 - Playoff Draw Friday 1330 CET

How come?

UEFA have this odd system whereby before the draw team are divided into buckets of 6 seeded and 6 unseeded teams. As someone said above, this has already been done and the only teams we cna get are:

JK Nõmme Kalju (EST)
FC Thun (SUI)
FC Pasching (AUT)
FC Dinamo Tbilisi (GEO)
FC Astra (ROU)
FC Slovan Liberec (CZE)
