    Maybe there is an Aris fan who harbours a secret love for PAOK that could pick up some tickets for Bohs lads as a favour?

    I don’t think buying tickets is the problem,they’d need to loan them their passports!!

    So they are going to ask every supporter to bring their passport to the game? I highly doubt that.neediny your passport to go to a game is ridiculous, makes a mockery of the vaccine Pass
    I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
    And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
    I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
    Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away

    Showing your passport to get into games isn't unknown. Had to do it to get into a Serie B game in Piacenza once.

    Alternatively, of course, they could just kick out the ones who haven't a notion how to read the Greek signs.

    Seems harsh, even if it is UEFA rules. Travel is generally allowed now, so some away fans should be let in.

    UEFA said months ago no traveling fans up to group stages.
    Laughable that bohs are tweeting from an official account today that away fans are not allowed as if its new news.
    Anyone dumb enough to travel can hardly complain.
    If the irish stewards didnt do their jobs thats doesnt mean the greeks should be blamed for doing theirs.

    Yeah bringing your ID or in our case passport to games is part of the norm in Italy. I needed mine for the games I’ve been to.

    Paok didnt seem arsed until they went two down and then changed it up and almost got back for a draw.
    You're wrong, there, simple as that. PAOK started really strongly, and opened us up twice. It wasn't until Coote skined Vieirinha (sp?) on a quick counter, that they dropped back, and it happened consistently on the flanks for the next 25 mins. So you're simply wrong about the match. They made a triple sub, combined with Buckley being out on his feet after 60 mins. absolutely nothing to do with the 'arsedness' of PAOK.

    If Bohs or Dundalk back up those results and go through they will be famous victories remembered for years.
    If Bohs go through, the result in Greece will be what is remembered, whether it's via penalties, a draw or an outright win on the night.
    I can't remember the leg results of Rovers when they were drawn against Partizan, all I remember is kavanagh scoring an incredible goal in extra time to qualify Rovers.

    How many people will remember or care that Rovers beat Slovan Bratislava in Tallaght....i know i wont because we still lost overall.
    Plenty, because Rovers were the better team on the night, and when youse make the group stage, and hopefully with a decent draw, when the European season is looked at overall, it's another extremely positive result in the extreme, added to the fact youse were only marginally edged out.

    Not everything is black and white. Matches can be won without the opposition being caught on the hop.

    I'm equally not sure what my "comfortable position" is
    Rovers are in a much more comfortable position, given your squad, and the opposition you're facing. They are ****e. If Rovers don't qualify it will be a far worse outcome than if bohs and dundalk fail to do so.

    Bohs beating Dudelange a very decent team comprehensively over two legs would be better then winning one leg against any team and then losing the second leg to go out.
    Would you stop! Dudelange were also ****e bar 20 mins in the 2nd half of the first leg. There's no comparison to Bohs finishing the job in Lansdowne against them, and going out and beating PAOK in the first leg of the next round.
    By your logic Bohs could have stuck 11 behind the ball, drawn the first leg, repeated the trick in Salonika, be eliminated on penalties and it mean the same? nonsense.


    I would put going through against the relative opposition as 1 Bohs 2 Dundalk 3 Rovers in terms of achievement.
    Fair.
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    Bohs admin really trying to double down on embarrassing themselves now. Official statement on website "while Uefa had said no traveling fans allowed we hoped those who had bought tickets from PAOK would be allowed' . Lol rovers or indeed ant professional club just put a statement out ag the beginning of Europe games saying UEFA say no away support end of story.
    Complaining about people following the rules doesn't absolve you of responsibility.

    Football fans take their chances going abroad to support their team. Bohs fans in Lux, PAOK fans in Dublin etc , no admonition from UEFA. In those instances
    Bohs have been consistently clear to anyone who travelled to Thezsalonoki that , PAOK would not
    provide an away allocation and that it was dangerous to attend.
    Notwithstanding that,j over 200 Bohs fans took the risk and travelled, .
    Because of the unexpectedly large volume of away fans the credible lthreat of violence from PAOK ultras, additional security is being applied at the stadium, so no unofficial away fans.
    Bohs have officially communicated the above to travelling fans, but you seem to be aghast at that?
    The only bull**** I see is from you and some other Rovers fans trying fo put the usual anti Bohs spin on the above...

    I presume the general prediction is that Rovers will go through, but Bohs and Dundalk will exit. Those late goals given away will surely make a difference. 2-0 to Bohs and 2-1 to Dundalk in those first legs would have been a lot healthier.

    Bohs going through in PAOK would be a massive result for them up there with the best wins in Europe ever.
    Vitesse are not PAOK but Dundalk have to win compared to Bohs so i would put going through almost but not quite up there with Bohs.
    Rovers have a great chance and while i can never see Rovers as favourite in Europe against anyone Paddypower have us 10/11 to win the match with the draw at 11/5 either result would see us through.
    For reference to back up my points PP have bohs win at 11/1 with a draw at 6/1
    Dundalk win is 5/1 with the draw at 16/5

    Given these are all effectively cup finals 1 goal either way will have the odds thrown out the window

    I se Norwich have just signed PAOK's top player, which can't hurt. Christos Tzolis, their 19-year-old international and top scorer from last season.

    Find it very hard to see Bohs go through tonight if I'm honest. The result last week felt like our Everest in this European campaign. The fifth unbeaten European game in a row and one we really had no right to win on paper. If it is in anyway close I probably won't have the heart for it. Might even pull the couch closer to the telly to sample the big game atmosphere :-D

    Be sure to have your passport with you, just in case.

    Ya it's massive really but I mean both were definitely avoidable too which is the annoying aspect, but it felt like it in both games that one was coming

    Came off the bench for the last 25 minutes at the Aviva last week. Norwich paid £10 million for him. Just further shows the size of PAOK that they’re able to command a fee like that
