when the UECL knockout round is sorted, could we be drawn against Anderlecht again if they get through?

I can't overstate how massive winning this tournament would actually be for us, and the impact it could have on our future and progress. We'd go into next season in the Europa and in Europe for the 3rd season running, and seen as still as something of a force, despite our awful league form this year.

Don't win it, and we're just another team who narrowly avoided relegation* the season before, pretty much starting from scratch again, and with less draw to attract better players as we continue our rebuild.

It's ****ing huge.

when is the ST holder's deadline to buy our seat for the game, and when do they confirm if we're definitely playing on the 16th March, or if it'll be moved?

7th Feb
I'm not sure but the draw is 24th this month so close to then I'd imagine.

No Rice and no Europe is a really depressing thought

According the the UEFA website, winners of the group stages, that’s us, play at home 2nd leg. So it will definitely be the OS on the 16th Mar.

You are absolutely right. But I think that ship has long since sailed over the horizon. But at least I see you think we'll narrowly escape relegation. I wish I shared your confidence.

I think it could be moved to the 15th only if the police requested it based on who our and Arsenal's opponents are as they are also scheduled to play on the 16th as a EL group winner. Last year both Real Betis and Seville were scheduled to play their home match on a Thursday but Betis had their Frankfurt match moved to the Wednesday.

As terrible as we've been in the Premier League this season, we're as good as anyone left in the Conference League.

Honestly think getting relegated and winning the UECL is about as likely as any other outcome right now!

Despite how bad we have been this season, we are still the only side with 100% record in this competition. That speaks volumes in regards to the quality of the field.

Also, don't forget Frankfurt won the EL last season despite finishing 11th (joint with 13th) in the bundesliga. Poor league form doesn't always equal poor European form

The police can object can they not if another London football club are at home that night.

It's not quite the same scenario though as those 2 teams never play at home on the same day, but there are regularly more than one top flight game in London on the same day.

It could be moved, but it's pretty unlikely. My bigger concern would be that they make it the early ko.

Yes, and as Arsenal are in the "senior" competition they would take precedence I imagine.

That, and they know whose palm to grease.

Remember if they were not corrupt they wouldn't be where they are now.

I reckon our home game will be moved forward one day to the Wednesday.

Especially when about 50% of their seats will be taken by away supporters.
