No way, stay miles away from them and go through to the next round. Whoever is the easiest in the next round go for them.Quote:

I think Spartak Moscow would be a winnable tie and AC Milan would be the dream tie.
BTW Derry drew with Spartak 1-1 last season in Portugal in pre-season with Spartak scoring a last minute equalizer.
Harpojoyce as for the wee thing about the Sweede's arogance, the Gotebourg captain Alexanderson before the tie with us said he was looking forward to coming to Derry as it would be a wee holiday for them. I would call that arrogant.would you not?
Well done Pats......you's done the LOI proud tonight.
Is it just me (as a Derry fan) or does it seem like some Harps fans are being a little begrudging towards Pats brilliant resultand their prospects in the next round?
BTW I've posted this before the draw.
Their fans showed us their team sheet for the 1st round proper before the game.Quote:

Wouldn't say you will be playing in Dalyer as we will still be celebrating the league title win there:cool:Quote:

I'll enjoy the moment, as will many Saints supporters, but remember it with pride when I recall the bad days and buying a penny apple at the Inchicore end before the move to Harolds Cross.
Harpo Joyce, that's something you'll never ever have.
congrats lads, ye done the league proud, i said earlier in the season that i was happy ye quailfied for the EUFA rather than the CL, as i think the CL is a bit out of reach for irish clubs, but EUFA is within reach which was proven tonight, i know its bad to say, but i was happy ye didnt win the league last year, but i am, and the league was represented better by ya rather than drogs, as this year your squad is so much better to advance in the EUFA cup,
congrats hope ye get an easy draw and advance further, doesnt matter who ya get, its a money maker
I thought the drogs did quite well actually don?!? but I kinda know what you mean...Quote:

Well done St Pats. Done the league proud.
Eircom league teams have the measure of these Swedish teams. Long may it continue.:D
Even a draw in one leg of the next round will give Pats a club coefficient for the next 5 years. This is really valuable and can mean seeding in rounds where other EL clubs are not seeded.
Milan would be a fantastic draw. Hertha would also be a big tv payday. However some of the others are beatable.
Fingers crossed and well done again. It was a fantastic night to be there as a Limerick fan. I can only imagine how much it meant to the Pats fans.
You deserve your big payday but maybe wait another few weeks for the group stages.
Congrats Pats - a well deserved success after a number of less-than-proud moments in Europe. I'm happy for you and my Dad's old club he followed in college :D
The only sad moment is that it wasn't on RTE, so that maybe a few more people could have been converted to the cause. RTE always choose the glorious losses :)
well done pats...ex drog scores first one....delighted, hope they can play next game in dublin cos i read somewhere that they might have to use rds and its ready for rugby that weekend or something
Great to read some of Pat's ****ed fans comments! Hope you have a sore head :D
Is the draw today? I remember the craic we had trying to organise travel straight after the draw for Paris, especially the will we or wont we be playing at home first malarkey, with the internet on, multiple tabs open, credit cards at the ready, friends and family on the phone. Aahhh the memories. Enjoy it lads. Milan would be the tie I would want.
great result last night and overall...bit of good news for the league...hope ye get a decent draw that gives a chance to progress..motherwell etc
We can ony get one of these 5
AC Milan (ITA)
Beşiktaş JK (TUR)
FC Spartak Moskva (RUS)
Hertha BSC Berlin (GER)
FK Partizan (SRB)
I heard it on the radio, sounded great but I couldn't make out the commentary in the last 5 minutes, there was just a loud noise coming through.
A few hangovers this morning:D
Local Swedish report says that Pats tactics were unexpected,
the first 20 minutes was a dramatic reversal of their away tactics.
Paid credit to " the great Mark Quigley ruled"
and Pats backed by 3k noisy enthusiastic fans.
Delighted for all the Pat's fans. Great result for every League of Ireland supporter. Caught the end on the radio after training and it sounded incredible, I think it was Eoin Hand on the radio that compared it to the roar in Dalymount when Ireland beat France. Would have loved to be there, stupid training getting in the way.
Outside of AC Milan Pat's should be at least competitive against the teams in that section. I'm sure if you asked the players they'd want Milan though, would be some experience walking out in the San Siro to face Kaka and co.

There's no feeling like seeing your team's name come out of the (electronic) hat beside names like Milan, Herthan Berlin etc.
The summer of 2006 and Derry's Euro adventure was the best of my life and I imagine Pats fans feel the same way.
Enjoy it.

The draw is live on Eurosport and will be streaming live on the Eurosport website here from 12pm.
I was at the match last night. It was a great occasion, got nothing but good wishes from anyone who spotted my Dundalk jacket. Well done to St. Pat's! Best of luck in the next round..
If we lost, it'd have been different :pQuote:
