Maybe it appears on the site at 12.00 CET on the nose?

It appears about 5 minutes before the draw. Relax...

Fighting chance - although not sure if Fenlon fancies returning to Pyunik - wasnt he is charge of Derry against them?

**pineapple stu** · 17/07/2009, 10:14 AM

He'd left shortly beforehand.

What's the live link?

Edit - got it; shouting at you from the uefa.com homepage...

**Sheridan** · 17/07/2009, 10:15 AM

Nope, he was gone by then. Very winnable tie, especially as I have a feeling Pyunik will get through.

A wee tip for any Bohs guys considering going to Zagreb if you meet them. Stay in Slovenia and travel to Croatia for game. We played them last year and stayed in Maribor and had a great time there. Travelled to Zagreb on day of game and back afterwards. The guys who stayed in Zagreb had to have armed police with them everywhere. They are mental.

Aye we had John "Loves the pints" Robertson in charge for that fiasco.

Marginal. Seriously though, even when they went to eat in a restaurant they had an armed policeman with them. When we arrived we meet up with rest of guys in a hotel in Zagreb and there were armed police all over the place.

Can't see the Zagreb locals helping them with that one.

On our way to Riga last year we met some Zagreb fans in Stanstead. They were looking for help with getting from Belfast airport to the ground. Were completely sound with us, and we had a couple of beers together. They told us to look them up if we were in Zagreb

That night in Riga they were showing the Linfield game n Sky and we seen a few of them topless with nazi tattoos showing...

**Sam_Heggy** · 17/07/2009, 4:52 PM

Zagreb a tough one if Bohs manage to get through. Good draw crowd wise though.

Perhaps Maribor could help with the Serbo-Croat for 'Protestant enclave'?

There were a couple of bad blue boys at our game in Salzburg in the away end as well as some Hadjuk Split fans. The Zagreb lads seemed alright but again, they probably have some fairly dodgy political views.
