    Something like this would be ideal, nae long trips and sides we'd expect to beat.


    Second round: New Saints (Wales) - Short trip, what should be a straightforward win.

    Third round: FH (Iceland) - Short trip again and another one you'd expect to win

    Play-off: Malmo (Sweden) - Short trip and I want revenge.

    Just the easiest games possible, please.

    I'm more confident than I was last year but I'll still be nervous. One bad result could make things very difficult for us.

    Would rather avoid Malmo, hate playing sides who are midway through their season, it gives them a wee edge.

    The Champions League needs a strong Celtic and Barcelona in the same groups though, European football couldn't cope without them, it needs those fixtures... :52:

    don't want any Scandinavian teams, teams from the likes of Malta or Wales will do.

    Easiest teams possible and IF we get to the CL groups the easiest teams possible as well. Sick and tired of getting a glamorous group, give me the same as Leicester got and I would be happy.

    Even when Ronny was in charge we made the playoffs at a minimum. We should have pumped Maribor in the first leg and fucknose how we managed to lose at home against them. Malmo game we conceded a crucial 94th min goal which * us a bit and Bitton's disallowed goal over in Sweden was another turning point.

    Rodgers made it with Ronnys team last year and we have improved a lot since then. I also expect us to make 2/3 top signings so I am very confident of progressing.
