Is this the link you are all using?

I knew that. What I was asking, badly, is how are those groups matched. Is it the 5 highest seeded team will draw 1 of the 5 lowest unseeded team and so on.

If so then pats would be looking at Juvenes/Dogma through winners of match 4.

capiche?

yeah, but you don't capiche me apparently

[brendy_éire]

I notice UEFA are still calling it the UEFA Cup on that draw page.

[EAFC_rdfl]

In that case a simple 'NO' - I haven't a clue how it works either - would have sufficed.

It's a draw. An open draw like. With balls and bowls. Which is what Dodge said.

[Dodge]

Pats can get one of malta, Israel, Azerbaijain and a couple of others that aren't quite clear

Teams have just been arranged into pots and draw should start soon

Is there a live video link? Can't find it on the UEFA site.

[Dodge]

Nope, guy on pats forum got a call from our rep over there.

Do you mean Iskra-Stali?

The israeli team is seeded

[thischarmingman]

[holidaysong]

Good draw for Pat's - Malta/Iceland.

[Fester]

[Sheridan]

Rapid Wien for Sligo if they make it through.

[Fester]

Rapid Wien v Sligo / Vllaznia

[thischarmingman]

[A N Mouse]

[thischarmingman]

Derry away to Latvian side FC Skono.

[rebelarmyexile]

[Boo_Boy]

eh Pats got MATCH 13, Thats Helsingbourg/MIKA, nor Iceland/Malta

No Helsinbourg is match 12..

[pineapple stu]

They haven't come out yet...?

[gustavo]

eh Pats got MATCH 13, Thats Helsingbourg/MIKA, nor Iceland/Malta

[thischarmingman]

They haven't come out yet...?

Posted on DCFCchat by member of board.

[rebelarmyexile]

Ah my apologies, numbers do not line up with matches

[pineapple stu]

UEFA's showing nothing!

Unless it's the last two teams in the group.

Edit - come out now. Stream must be a couple of minutes behind.

[Fester]

eh Pats got MATCH 13, Thats Helsingbourg/MIKA, nor Iceland/Malta

Hels/MIKA is match 12 :D

[Boo_Boy]

Derry got Skonto

Damn that Java is slow.

[holidaysong]

That's a winnable tie for Derry. They're winnable ties all round for the Irish teams really apart from the two Austrian teams.

[dynamo kerry]

quick predictions:

sligo to go through and narrowly lose to Rapid

Bohs to squeak by

Pats to get to the third qual round although on probaly a 1-0 agg

Derry - I don't know what to think - Skonto have a great history. At a glance they don't appear to have hardened internationals up front or in midfield. They could have a shot at it.

I would have taken Skonto any day.

Last few seasons they haven't been great:

# 2007

* First Qualifying Phase
o Jul 13 Dinamo Minsk (Belarus) 1:1
o Jul 27 Dinamo Minsk 0:2

# 2006

* First Qualifying Phase
o Jul 13 Jeunesse d'Esch (Luxembourg) 2:0
o Jul 27 Jeunesse d'Esch 3:0
* Second Qualifying Phase
o Aug 10 Molde FK (Norway) 0:0
o Aug 24 Molde FK 1:2


Hopefully we can take them. Will be an amazing trip for those that go as well. Ragin I can't afford it.

Won the league 14 times in a row from 1991. They have been on a downward turn since 2005 though, and they don't seem to have ever done anything great in Europe. I'm confident.

[holidaysong]

€417.42 with Ryanair Dublin to Riga return - out on Sunday 12th and back Friday 17th.

[thischarmingman]

It's winnable and it's not going to bankrupt the club in getting there.

I'm happy.

Won't be able to travel but have been in Riga before and it's a great wee place. Plety of craic to be had.

[TheBoss]

I expect Bohmians to give Salzburg a real hard game, and I think Bohs will sneak it.

Sligo have a good chance providing they get players back and some form going into the game.

Pats should go through, it would be a big disappointment if they were to get beat by one of them teams.

Derry again have a great chance, they should get by those games, could be an amazing year this year. I think Bohs have a great chance to make the Champions League this year.

....I think Bohs have a great chance to make the Champions League this year.

A parody surely?

[TheBoss]

Salzburg are not as good as people think, they have one player Janko, if you can stop him, you stop them.
