    Dundalk aren't great this year mate. Cork City are the team going well in the League of Ireland so far this year. It'd be nice if they drew the huns in the Europa.

    Both faired well in Europe last year. Cork advanced past BK Hacken, decent side from the Swedish league. Good to see them start to find their feet in Europe.

    So UEFA have apparently scrapped regionalised qualifying no thought for small teams at all who maybe can't afford a hotel or chartered aeroplane for a 6,000 round trip!!!

    Aye easiest possible, preferred a cold rainy place too, with a good pitch. Don't need no 40 degree heat and sand pitch * our game up.

    For anyone thinking of going to away matches in 2nd rd be careful who you book your flights with.
    BA are supposed to be going on strike between 1st July and 16th July from Heathrow.
    This will impact on flights for us if we are draw away first leg.

    The draw is today? Get in!

    Dundalk would be the ideal draw.

    Finland - P 8 W 7 D 0 L 1
    Macedonia and Bosnia - P 8 W 4 D 1 L 3 (This is when they were part of Yugoslavia)
