I would say you have a good chance of going through.

They are a useful team but not earth shattering. If Linfield had of drawn them, I would be very confident.

I could tell you better next saturday after Linfield play TNS though.

Steve Bruce, TNS won 3-0 at Dungannon tonight, so they might yet do OK against Ventspils.

Funny how BBC NI always covers these games (they did it last year for TNS/Rhyl's games in NI too) but when it comes to BBC Wales they can barely be arsed to type up a report on the European games.

Good stuff from BBC NI.

Lads,

just wondering - does cork win in the intertoto cup in the first qualifying round gives us any points towards our coefficient this year?

No, Intertwobob results don't count.

I'm certainly not writing off TNS's chances against Ventspills. I'm just saying I do not know the standard tns play at. It looked to be a convincing win against Dungannon, I hope TNS does well.

It would be nice to get all 3 Celtic teams through to the next round of the CL.

TNS are full of scousers so there's not much 'Celtic' about them. Good team though.

The others are in the UEFA Cup, c'mon benno get your facts right :p

I'm not happy, what makes you say that?

TNS got hammered last night by Glentoran. The jury is well and truely out about TNS. Again I'll reserve judgement until Saturday. If we hammer you like Glentoran, then I do not see much hope in TNS going past Ventspills.

I always like to see the small teams do well. Lets hope the Giants of Linfield can lead the way:D

Zimbru's team was mainly composed of Moldovan internationals - hardly world beaters. And look what happened.

Can people stop mentioning the "Z" word. It induces feelings of severe nausea in me. Thanks. :(

Dr. Nightdub seems to have made-up a team AND a country. How very odd:confused:

Did you watch TNS yesterday Steve, according to welsh-premier.com Linfield won 2-1 but TNS played quite well. What did you think?

TNS did play pretty well. The pace of your front men gave our aging defense a few problems.

Both teams should have scored more, but I think on reflection the Blues just shaded it.

However, not to take anything away from TNS. Linfield didn't set out with our best team as a few key players where either not risked or injured.

If TNS are going to get anything from Ventspills you will have to do all the work at home. I don't think TNS are quite as capable of Linfield(could be bias, but I seriously am trying to be open minded) but if you can win your home game, you have every chance. It is going to be tight.
