    I'm confident of there being about 40k at this one. At most other clubs that would be considered a good attendance for a third round qualifier in europe. Suppose we are not like "most other clubs" though.

    Knowing our reputation as a support it is not that great for us, but not really embarrassing at the same time IMO. Ofcourse it always helps the players to have a large crowd pushing them on mind you.

    I think the expectation amongst our support is that we should be getting at least 45-50k for every European game we play, qualifiers included.

    Obviously the group stage games sell out easily enough.

    You would have thought that the prospect of CL nights people would wanna make a bit extra effort to get down and help get them in to the group stages.

    You would have yes but does not look that way. This game should have been on the season ticket for me. Would probably have been 50k at the least had it been.

    I won't be fully happy with just getting through the tie - I really want us to * smoke this mob.

    If we sneak through on penalties I will be delighted. Some on here are underestimating this team.

    I ain't underestimating them, you've inferred meaning that isn't there. My post was more to do with an irrational disliking i've taken towards them.

    You want a rationale for an "irrational disliking"?

    I am aware what irrational means. Describe how you feel about Elfsborg.

    They remind me of Helsinki for some reason. I think it will be that type of game where they score first and we all * ourselves.
