    Seen a thing on Twitter last night that said pot 4 plays away to pot 2 on match day 3. That suggest City away would be 18/19 October. Not sure how reliable it was though.

    This is even worse than 2012/13. We were written off (unfairly) despite the fact that only Barca were insanely difficult to beat.

    Benfica - great team but do they have the quality of a Pep City? Monchen are more difficult than Spartak I'd say too.

    We can dream but we will never win the Champions Leagues. So to play 2 of the biggest teams in the competition in the group stages is pretty awesome. The media attention will be on this group because of the Barca and Gladiola thing, to be part of it and in the media spotlight can only be good for the Club whilst the Huns can only drool with envy. Bring it on, Champion League nights are going to be awesome!!!

    It's 11 v 11. It's 12 for us at Paradise. I'm pragmatic, I understand more cash equates to the ability to buy better quality but I also know we've had great results with supposedly inferior players.

    I will not and never will write us off before a ball is kicked against any team, especially now we have a top manager and still time to add more experience and quality to our own team.

    We are * determined at Celtic. We are a huge club and the players are learning that again.

    So what if we get 0 points this year, we're back amongst the elite earning serious coin.

    Brendan's goals are assimilated with ours. He has a plan and this is just the beginning, embrace the fact our young players will gain invaluable experience for our next attempt and our next after that.

    Enjoy these moments, believe in our team.

    * the English media, who gives a * what they think?

    As long as they never forget that their clubs are only as good they are because they have rich Arabs and TV companies pumping billions into their * league, I couldn't give a *.

    those teams all have to face each other so hopefully they take points off each other.. 2 good results at home could see us ok for 3rd place

    I can't actually describe how * off and raging I am at that Group.

    Barca - Been there done that about a * million times

    Man City - The whole Paddy Roberts situation

    Desperately wanted to avoid that group the most and just knew it was gonna happen. * typical.

    I know I sound like a spoiled * but honestly sick of the sight of Barca it's * crazy how many times we've faced them over last 12 years or so.

    * it. The main aim this year was to get there and we've done that.

    Let's get a couple of class players in and go and enjoy ourselves.

    I know.

    Wanted a group where we had a shot of 3rd place. But fear the worst.
