Jute Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 I actually think that the Luxembourg outfit will be margarinally better. Hope your right as will be a much cheaper trip. Quote
SeeBass Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 My friend thinks it is my 'perfectionist obsession' and 'madman thought process' stemming from our brain injury at birth that is to blame for what I'm about to say but does anybody else just hope when it comes to these games especially at Home that we don't embarrass ourselves???? I know the team back in 2009-10 wasn't maybe as good as those between 2014 and the present day but I still can't watch highlights of Sigma Olomouc 5-1 horror show. Was it true Mark McGhee took them so lightly that he only brought players back less than a week before first leg?? Quote

And seemingly not a well man despite no known brain injuries of his own. Quote
DantheDon Posted June 20, 2019 Report Posted June 20, 2019 We were much poorer then. I remember we were lucky to get into the top 6 let alone get europe. If memory serves we had just lost a bunch of key players and needed a total rebuild. While you could draw parallels to now, the team we have at the moment is argueabley a young up and coming team with lots of potential. Quote
SeeBass Posted June 20, 2019 Report Posted June 20, 2019 Anybody got the starting XI from that Sigma Olomouc game so I can see how bad it was?? If one were to play Fola Esch again are we any better or worse from three years ago??? Can't believe how close elimination felt that evening in Luxembourg. I see our Finnish Friends are about thirteen games into their season. Quote
Elgindon Posted June 20, 2019 Report Posted June 20, 2019 Bide there,I'll get it Langfield,Mulgrew,Foster,Macdonald,Considine,Kerr,Aluko,Young,Duff,Miller,Mackie Subs Paton for Aluko,Macguire for Mackie That was a game I took someone to Pittodrie for their first visit. What an embarassment Quote
BigAl Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Didnt Duff and Young play in defence? Indeed they did and were totally ripped a new one Quote
donsdaft Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Anybody got access to a ticket for Finland. My son is going ( via New Zealand or something) but as a non DNA member is waiting for a phone call from Pittodrie Quote
Tyrant Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Anybody got access to a ticket for Finland. My son is going ( via New Zealand or something) but as a non DNA member is waiting for a phone call from Pittodrie The Vast majority of DNAers won't get a ticket either. My mate has bought us two for the home end. We're going via Helsinki Quote
SeeBass Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 When are tickets available for Pittodrie Leg?? Won't be a sellout right???? Quote
donsdaft Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 He's going via Gdansk then Turku (?) then train to Rovaniemi Anyone who wants to go for a semi reasonable price needs to book bloody quickly. If they keep the tickets for folk that can afford to travel with their charter flight then they can stuff their football club up their arse. Quote
wi_09 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 The away leg is being shown on Premier Sports which softens the blow a wee bit for those that won't get a ticket. Quote
BigAl Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 When are tickets available for Pittodrie Leg?? Won't be a sellout right???? Short of us pulling of the signature of Messi and Salah there is zero chance SeeBass Quote
SeeBass Posted June 21, 2019 Report Posted June 21, 2019 Big Al, Got my ticket for Top Half of Lower Dick Donald Stand earlier today. Coming up First Class on train from Berwick-upon-Tweed leaving half past nine arriving just after 1pm going home following day around ten to three and back to Scottish Borders about 7pm give or take a few minutes here and there!! Staying over at Premier Inn near Little John Street so all in all without spending money on the day I've forked out £140.85 to watch my 18th European tie. Win, lose, draw, continental action is something that really does switch me on in life. Quote
