Europa League 19/20 - Everything You Need To Know

[ELGers]

Any links mate?

I've got on the Champions League draw at the moment as I'm assuming it will come on that afterwards.

Under an hour till we find out where we are booking up for!

Finland or Kosovo are the two that interest me, I'll be going regardless of location tbf but it is always nice to get somewhere I havent been before.

I've been to Gibraltar, Wales and Luxembourg. I haven't been to Faroes or Iceland but they will be extortionate and difficult to get to for a reasonable price, no doubt be good trips though.

I'm hoping for Wales purely from a price point of view, if I can't get going on this first round I probably need to wait until the 4th round if we make it.

End up being days until it’s confirmed dates like last season. Absolute pain in the arse.

Kosovo is a stunning country. No idea why it would be a nightmare as some seem to suggest.

 

[sregnar]

I live an hour away - please let it happen!!

Doubt they’ll beat Progress

 

[Graemeh89]

The tims just got drawn against fk Sarajevo

Yip, last season was a nightmare if I remember correctly.

If we draw the Kosovo / Gib mob we will need to wait until at least they play the 1st leg, dont fancy booking Kosovo without them at least having a comfortable 1st leg lead.

 

[Partickger]

Gibraltar on the 4th would be perfect, we’ll be in Estepona just along the coast.

 

[Chris01]

Celtic off to Bosnia..... haha

 

[student_loyal]

Sarajevo will feel like a home game for them - lots of similarities to parkhead.

 

[LD5]

Tough draw for Linfield

 

[ELGers]

Kosovo is a stunning country. No idea why it would be a nightmare as some seem to suggest.

I think folk unfairly just assume it will still be the 90s wasteland it was left like by the Serbs.

 

[sregnar]

They said that last year took about 3 days.

We might need to sort out with Killie and potential clashes with -

Progres - Potential clashes with Fola Esch & Jeunesse Esch
Cardiff - Potential clashes with Barry Town & Connah's Quay (i've no idea if they need to share)
B36 - Potential clash with KI if they win preliminary
Turku - No Potential clash I can see
KR - Potential clashes with Stjarnan & Breidablik
Prishtina (KOS) - No clash
St Josephs - Potential clash if both them and Europa win preliminary.

Basically anyone but Turku then we’re likely getting changed from Thursday

 

[oldgregg]

Linfield just drew Rosenborg in the CL 1st round draw.

Sarajevo is a wonderful city. Now going to be polluted by the scum. Not an easy draw for them over there

 

[BillyBoys]

We don't play on the 4th.

11th and 18th July is our dates.

 

[Weetoonblue]

The tims just got drawn against fk Sarajevo

Are they any good.

 

[oranje-viola]

Celtic off to Bosnia..... haha

Hardest draw they could have got but still an easy enough task

There’s also a genuine mentally challenged pub in the city called ‘Celtic Pub’ so no doubt they will receive a warm welcome there.

Can only hope the Horde Zla are a bit less friendly with the travelling swarm of human filth

Especially since they play at home first. I wouldn't fancy travelling to Bosnia with only a 1 goal lead.

Definitely the trickiest tie they could have got.

 

[foot1efreek]

If they bästards lose they go into round 3 of europa

 

[ELGers]

The Tims seems to have gotten an easier route in the UEFA Cup if they get knocked out by are now Bosnia friends. Entry into the Third qualifying round instead of the second.

 

[LiborSionko14]

mentally challengeds just got a bye to the 3rd round of Europa Qualifying if they get put out in this round.

 

[wtownsley]

Losers of the tim game get punted straight into ELQR3 instead of the 2nd qualifier

Or the Serbs have another go at bosnia while the mentally challengeds are conveniently over there

 

[Chris01]

Atalanta beat Sarajevo 10-2 in the Qualifiers last year.

If Sarajevo managed to score 2 against Atalanta that must equate to about 5 given Celtics dodgy defence.

 

[oranje-viola]

Especially since they play at home first. I wouldn't fancy travelling to Bosnia with only a 1 goal lead.

Sarajevo went and drew 2-2 with Atalanta last season in the Europa Qualifiers.

Their home performance wasn’t quite as impressive as they got humped 8-0 after doing the hard part away from home.

But if the Bosnians can keep it tight enough going into the 2nd leg it will be a white hot atmosphere in Sarajevo

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

What was that last draw for?

Edit: Just seen posts above.

 

[bailliestontrueblues]

how did the poets get a by if they get put out this round?

 

[hendo1969]

This thread has just turned into Kerrydale street forum. What time is the main and most important draw for Europa?

The CL draw was first mate.

Why?

Looks like 2:30pm UK time.

[ELGers]

Why?

To balance out the "Champions Route" in the UEFA Cup they had to give one tie a bye in the 2nd otherwise they would have had an odd number of teams. So either C*ltic or Saraevjo will benefit from it depending on who goes out.

People probably still thinking its the mid-90s!

Ah well typical for them to be that draw. Let's hope they do benefit from it though.

 

[Stanley Yelnats]

Cba ploughing through the last few pages.

Is this getting streamed or what, and where is it getting streamed?

 

[I P Freely]

Maybe them and their pals the Bad Blue Boys from Dinamo Zagreb can have a smoochathon before the game.

 

[noops12345]

Why?

Think there was uneven numbers in the draw and their game got picked out the hat to drop into the 3rd round

Agree it would be a great place to go on an away trip. Shame to think what a mess it will be with them over there.

 

[Laudrup1]

Why? Do they have a massive pile of secrets and a crime scene there too?

 

[BajanBear]

I wouldn't say Kosovo has quite reached the dizzy heights of the 90s yet. Maybe the 80s. Joke.

 

[Now and forever]

Who are our best and worst draws?

Not talking trip wise. . . Playing wise.

 

[mck1872]

I want progres again

 

[DoubleWhopper]

It belongs to the Serbs.

 

[Chris01]

Hard to say - I know the Icelandic and Finnish team are halfway through their league season and both top.

I think we would annihilate Progress.

The faroes team for me

 

[Laudrup1]

I'm guessing the Faroese team are the weakest of the opponents? Progres possibly the hardest along with the Kosovans.

 

[sregnar]

Would be a total nightmare in terms of needing to wait until their tie is played until we can book something.

 

[DougieJones]

Progres damn near made it into the final qualifier last season, wouldn’t be the cakewalk everyone seems to think.
