    Wouldn't want a tie in a war-torn country with crappy security/pitch and just bad preperation. Dont think some of our players would fancy that.

    Most ties are winnable but giving our record recently in Europe im taking nothing for granted.

    Don't want any team too far away, i.e, eastern europe, greece etc, and don't want an english team. Would suck balls if we lost to * Stoke or Birmingham. Preferably scandanavian or central europe. Would need to see the teams that are left to see who I'd want.

    All of them.
    I know we should proberbly expect to go through whoever we get but would like to avoid HJK Helsinki. They are very hard to beat at home and have some decent players. I know it's a poor league but if we got them I hope it's away first. I hope we get Zestafoni or Shamrock. Hail Hail

    I'm quite surprised that Bursaspor aren't seeded, and that Stoke are.

    Don't want any team from Eastern Europe or England, simple. Eastern Europe is just too far too travel.
    Wouldn't mind Helsingborgs, Mjallby would be clued up.
    Shamrock Rovers would be perfect tbh.

    Agree, avoid Eastern Europe plus our record vs Swiss teams isn't the best.
