Inter-toto Cup almost always means get teams from far flung countries... In recent years Pats had Croatia & Belgium, Rovers had Poland & the Chech republic...
Select your choice of preferred location for opposition...

Er... not to quibble but aren't the Ukraine and Belarus both ex-Soviet republics? :confused:
And the Baltic states too while we're at it...
The Baltic area is normally beautiful in July. Excellent beer, good quality food and cost of living is about a third of here.
Baltics seem the runaway winner so far. Got my vote too.
I understand you wanna travel far but I'd like City to visit Holland. You will see one Dutchman supporting City in the homestands.
But first you must not make a mistake on Sunday...all the best lads!
ps. we are facing mayhem in the temple of doom. Sunday it's - [SIZE=1]ajax[/SIZE] - Feyenoord
Yeah, cept its cloudy in Latvia in June :) Baltics win hands down, I just finished the last of my vodka from the last trip the other day so its time for a top up! estonia could be nice. I hear Bulgaria is good craic too....Quote:

We would probably only get a dutch team if we had won a couple of matches so here's hoping we do end up in windmill central.Quote:

I'm up for Estonia:D
Im thinking Cymbru Vale or someone so we could get like 1000 over there ;) :D
i reckon we could storm the city hall and get the city big flag on it. for a laugh like. :D
voted for the Baltic, but hopefully it'll be a much shorter trip than that....
I don't care where we go once we can have a few beers and a good laugh and all that and get the right result.
Somewhere closer to home means more away support, which could mean better results.
Didn't think Ukraine etc... Soviet Republics but open to correction. Think Latvia 'n Co are the baltic Republics?Quote:

Didn't include Western Europe cos too obvious a destination. Think of it as a far flung location poll ;)
Just after remembering that with a load of this eastern block countries joining the EU next May it should make it nice and easy to get there. I'd say there'll be a lot of new flight routes opening up and we wont have visa problems, I'd say they'll all accept Euros too.
Roll on Malta
I think the dutch teams come in in the next round. cos when metalurgs beat us, the played heerenveen in the next roundQuote:

Balkans is my clear winner, warm and sunny. Cheap beer and beautiful tanned women, especially on the croatian coast. They do have some decent footballing sides though. Damn, in hindsight from a footballing point of view should have voted for baltic/ eastern europe:D
