UEFA Draw - 2nd qualifying round draw - Rangers possibly to play Cork City

[BrunoBear]

Bit of a difference between Belfast and Cork, might be played in Cork but there will be no Rangers fans allowed.

Far more potential for trouble them playing in Belfast 2 days after the 12th than us in Cork. Not even close. Fans may be restricted but the game will be played in Cork.

 

[PansBear]

What are the dates for QF round 2 ties?

 

[Andyboyh68]

Excellent draw!

 

[Jelle1880]

Fucking hell hahahahaha

I can not wait for that, Rangers in Cork...

 

[ScottXC]

Progres ran deep last year, only losing out on the 4th round against us to a late goal from UFA.

Wouldn't count them out if they've improved any.

 

[Recoba]

It will be Progres again

 

[Iain04]

What are the dates for QF round 2 ties?

Home 25th July - Away 1st August. Still to be confirmed though

 

[SuperGers07]

Cork were strong last year, seem to have fell away reading this years stats so far.

Progres will fancy it v them. For our fans, and an away trip it would be better if Progres win

If you’re wet maybe. No1 in their right mind wants another trip to progres instead of Cork. Luxembourg is shite.

This no away fans chat already is tragic.

 

[AC_55]

Rangers in Cork gives me chills. Pack your, hatchets and hammers, stanleys and spanners as they say...

 

[Crouchy]

People don’t seriously want to play Progres over Cork, do they? :-/

 

[Bri RTID]

Official trip only it’s Cork imo.

first time this season the cunts might actually do travel

 

[DougieJones]

Kilmarnock/Connahs Quay v Partizan Belgrade


Sheep v Fola Esch/diddy team

Surely McInnes can negotiate that? Unless one of them plays in green and white hoops of course.

 

[EKBB]

What date is that away game then? 1st August?

 

[Crouchy]

Aye, I’ll await the school holiday argument for this one...

 

[Crouchy]

He usually gets to Q3.

Buses from Belfast,

At the moment is it. Though will be confirmed over the next few days for definite

Possibly the likely outcome. Allocation will be small, if not. I prefer Luxembourg or Wales!

 

[Lester Piggott]

OK, I'm completely counting my chickens here but if we were to get through these 2 rounds do we have an idea of the calibre of team we could face in the 3rd round (and play off if we get by that)?

 

[dublinbluenose]

If its held in Cork, then you'd think it will be little to no away support

This is exactly what it will be

 

[The Underfaker]

We’re on our wayyyyyyy!

To Gdańsk!

 

[ArfieldGer]

Progres will beat cork.

 

[sregnar]

The rats eventually got for Linfield. Rangers fans will travel so they’re making it more dangerous if they try no away fans.

 

[bobally]

To The Gdansk

Nonsense, I live in Belfast and have been to Cork's ground. Belfast is almost split down the middle on religious grounds, Windsor park is perfectly placed to accomodate Celtic fans via Boucher road had they chose to take tickets, Republican West Belfast is only across the road. Cork is bang smack at the bottom of the Republic of Ireland, there is no base to keep Rangers fans safe getting to or leaving the ground.

 

[sw26]

That's a very tough R2 draw for Killie, is it not?

Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

 

[dublinbluenose]

Buses from Belfast,

A bus from Belfast your looking at five hour journey

 

[Crouchy]

A bus from Belfast your looking at five hour journey

Ideal.

Longer the better.

Be brilliant.

 

[bobally]

Maybe 7 hours with a few refreshment stops

 

[davmcc]

Surely if they saw this as a potential problematic clash they would have put us in different groups.

That's one of the reasons they do the groups.

correct

might even move it to dublin if honest

bigger ground

Only way I see an away support is a tiny allocation flown into Shannon airport and flight back straight afterwards

They won’t move it cork people in general hate the dubs

 

[OohAhHuistra]

Please cork

 

[bobally]

Thats fine, then ban the Cork support and we can have the whole stadium

 

[Jelle1880]

Few other grounds in Cork that would suit it, Pairc Ui Chaoimh for example. But that's GAA so I doubt they will move it if we meet, probably ban away fans rather.

Id say we travel anyway if they try

Not doubting that haha

Won't happen. Cork played Legia Warsaw at their home stadium. If the 5% share is given to us, then this will be about 350 tickets.

With no places to watch the game or congregate, I think a travel ban or ticket ban will be likely.

 

[bobally]

If we win the first leg 7-0, then doubt be much interest from the locals!

Did that journey when the Glens played Cork in the Setanta final 11 years ago! Never again! Bus journey from hell!

 

[Battlefield Bear]

Cork is a cracking city! The English Market is a brilliant place.

 

[Diego Forlan]

Any sense they'd keep it in Cork and use the GAA stadium - Pairc Uí Chaoimh

40k seater.

 

[pelem]

Boo Hoo Boo Hoo, hoo fuukin cares.

 

[Jelle1880]

They tried that when Cork drew Legia (I think), but were shot down. GAA isn't fond of (in their eyes) the peasants that follow football.

 

[I P Freely]

Sounds all round

 

[OohAhHuistra]

Progres will beat cork.

Spoil sport

 

[RangersEasyOK]

Non starter due to the GAA being clowns

Couldn’t you just fly into Cork airport?
