European Adventure

[pertharab]

Are we still seeded in the next round assuming we get through?

FC UNA Strassen it is

It's in Luxembourg BTW and I think their stadium holds 1500.

Its a good fixture especially with half a squad to pick from, hopefully a springboard forward

I think so too - date and opponent known well in advance and not having to wait on a previous result to determine where we're going so can plan with confidence. All booked up - just need a ticket now!

Can't be unhappy with that draw

Nice to play a team from a country we haven't before

Our 57th European tie and 113 & 114th European games

This will be the 29th different country we have faced opposition from in Europe


Now we need to build up our team and squad asap

[Stoke_Arab]

A great chance to advance into the next round, dont f##k this up United.

[LSArab]

All booked up for the trip

Just hope that they sort a much bigger venue so that all of us travelling can get tickets

Surely the lux authorities would not be keen on a lot of Arabs hanging around without tickets

Don?t see how we can play in a stadium that only holds 1,500 - we took about that many to alkmaar

Time and date not confirmed yet as there are other Luxembourg teams at home on the same date but on uefa website it says that will be confirmed on the 25th June so hopefully its the Thursday 31st for all thats booked already🤞

Surely it'll have to be as the games are always on the Thursday. Maybe venue change or kick off time perhaps?

I remember when I watched the draw live that there were rules re change of date if 2 teams from the same city were drawn at the same time etc and I'm sure there has been Europa or Conference games played on a Wednesday before.

Getting bit worried about this now

Invested in family trip to Luxembourg !!

Really could do with match getting moved to national stadium so all us Arabs can get tickets

Alan Temple on the Twa Teams podcast suggested this was unlikely due to the costs of renting the ground but it would be great if it happened as everyone who wanted a ticket would get one. Estimates suggest we had about 4000 through for AZ, only half of whom actually got to see the game.

We should surely be ok Luxembourg is bigger than the likes of Andorra, San Marino and Liechtenstein etc. and the clubs seem spread around the albeit smallish country. There are 4 Luxembourg teams in Europe (seems crazy compared with Scotland's 5). Their Champion's League representative plays a Kosovo team. If they win they stay in the CL, lose and they play at home in the second leg in Conf. Lge qualifying round 2. when we are over there. There are two Luxembourg teams in the Conference League first round. If they lose they are out. Win and one plays home on the 31st, one away. So theoretically there could be 3 Luxembourg teams playing at home on the 31st or maybe only our tie.

I think supposed to be decision on the stadium in Luxembourg today ?!? Not heard anything
