I think it's cancelled now.

No, it?s full steam ahead- they like celebrating failure

Aye Min !! I`ve been swithering on bookings too. Tie is too tight to take a guess ?

Bucharest is easy from down here . Direct via LBA.

But the Drita ground . Same as you , I looked at Skopje , and finding thon Taxi Gaggie to drive us up there again !!

Think I`ll just wait till next week to see who actually wins. Reckon it`ll cost anoother £100 by then ?

Keep in touch ?

All sorted. See you in Bucharest on the Wednesday. I'm £284 return for flights and digs. Wednesday and Thursday in Bucharest and Friday night in Budapest.

Plenty cheap flights circa 20 quid out from Stansted or Luton on the Wednesday morning. Fill your boots guys. Still cheap routes back via Budapest, Naples and Bergamo on the Friday if you need back home then.

The draw is today at 1245 hours. We are in pot 4 of 6.

Looking at the teams involved, there's a few of our old foes in there.

[swaddon2]

Aberdeen are at home to Shakhtar Donetsk, Strasbourg and Noah - and visit Sparta Prague, AEK Athens and AEK Larnaca.

Not sure on the dates, but Prague looks good for me for an away day.

[TheDeeDon]

FC Noah are apparently an Armenian team and AEK Larnaca are from Cyprus. Had never heard of them before.

Below are the dates of the ties, taken from the UEFA website. If Prague is the second game, then won't be going as will be in Norway.

FC Noah are a newish team, having been formed in 2017.

They're the champions of Armenia and also the cup holders.

Also, Strasbourg will be the first ever French team we've played in Europe.
