Cork unseeded for UEFA draw

.... according to uefa.com. Longford remain seeded.

Thats unlucky, after last years run I'd've thought Cork are more deserving of it than Longford, but Longford will need the easier draw! I'd imagien Cork will hold their own in most of the possible ties, even Viking (though that will be the most difficult one!)

The cost of the inter-toto not contrinbuting to seedins unfortunately.
I'm 100% sure we would have gone through if seeded, it's a tall order now, though we can give anyone a game, a revenge mission on Ljepajas Metalurgs anyone?

Being unseeded means that we're at home first, right?
That could work in our favour if we can get a good result at home and the opposition have a poor home crowd due to lack of interest or complacency.

Feckin ridiculous that the intertoto doesn't affect seedings, makes it seem that UEFA don't take the competition seriously themselves??? :mad:

What sort of teams could ye get lads?

I wouldn't imagine there would be any great teams (no disrespect) at this stage so you'd have to fancy City's chances of progressing anyway, especially with a lot of teams in their off season now.

Hope so anyway.

I wasn't aware that seedings affect who is at home first.

:confused:

There's quite a few decent teams in the seeding, and unfortunately they all (bar one) play in summer leagues.

It could be a tall order.

Nice1 town,savage quick reply by the way :eek: :D

we'll be up against one of the following:
Viking FK (NOR)
Esbjerg fB (DEN)
FK Ventspils (LAT)
FHK Liepajas Metalurgs (LAT)
Myllykosken Pallo-47 (FIN)
AC Allianssi (FIN)
FK Ekranas (LIT)
FK Atlantas (LIT)
Keflavík (ISL)
ÍBV Vestmannaeyjar (ISL)

apart from maybe viking i reckon we could take any of the others.we're playing better than we were last season and i see no reason for us to be fearfull.I'd love it if we got Liepajas Metalurgs and get revenge for a few years ago.They were bad then,hopefully they are still the same.

I hope ye get Metalurgs and redeem yourselves after that disgrace a few years ago. The excuses Gunther made were pathetic ( and so was the performance BTW ).

A lot of the other teams look tasty too.
