LOI in Europe 2022

[Nesta99]

Baseksehir, Fiorentina, Rovers, Lech Posnan, would be some group. I suppose a good draw would be from Partizan, Gent, Partisan, AZ /Molde, Appollon/ reasonS to think they can beat anyone in pot four/

[joey B]

Ferencvarosi get Crvena Zvezda, Monaco and Trabzonspor in the Europa league,a pretty horrible draw for them that….

[pineapple stu]

you,d have to hope that Rovers can put it up to the bottom 4.
Silkeborg might be shaky it seems but yea it wont be easy. They will have to have some grit, determination or ambition. I hope they put on a good show anyways.

Well the bottom three anyway. The Swedish league is half decent and doesn't deserve to be grouped with Armenia/Latvia/Kosovo, all of which Rovers should be targeting for an aggregate win in the normal course of events

Danish side PS.

[ger121]

I’ve been running a few simulators since last night and Ballkani keep coming out. So do Slovan.

Danish side PS.

Djurgarden?

[ger121]

Djurgarden?

I thought Sparky was talking about Silkeborg?

Apologies, I did not read his post fully.

[pineapple stu]

He was - but I was taking Djurgarden out of the bottom four he referred to. I think they're far closer Denmark/Poland/etc than Armenia/Latvia/Kosovo

agreed. of the northern/scandanavian leagues we used to be confident of winning a tie against icelandic, and finnish opposition and not as confident at all versus norwegian or danish opposition but swedish opposition I thought would still be a team/league to aim to beat...
On top of that the Danish team, silkeborg haven,t done that well so far and were placed 3rd last year so might not be the creme de la creme...(?)

I mean the other teams are also low ranked for a reason and Rovers like Dundalk before should be aiming to take points off them...

[pineapple stu]

We used to have a great record against Swedish sides back at the peak, but Pat's were fairly handily dispatched by Norrköping three years ago, so I don't think the wins in the 00s count for much any more.

Rovers lost 2-1 to Solna in 2018 so there's a chance of a result for sure. I'd take the bottom three as sides Rovers should get aim for 4 points off, and the other five as sides they could get a home point off anyway.

[pineapple stu]

Gent and Molde for Rovers so far so.

[ger121]

That is not a bad group so far.

[El-Pietro]

Gent is a beautiful city. Its a less touristy version of Bruges.

[pineapple stu]

Fourth seed is key now. Molde are a decent side, but Dundalk a couple of years ago put it up to them, so with a crap fourth seed and a home win against Molde, you never know...

Won't be the Latvians though.

[pineapple stu]

Djurgardens of Sweden the fourth seed.

Handy group for travel, if nothing particularly interesting in there. Tough one to get out of. No obvious easy wins either.

[ger121]

Djurgardens of Sweden the fourth seed.

Couple of better draws in that pot but maybe some worse ones so about average.

[2 Year Contract]

That’s an excellent group for rovers to get with getting points on the board in mind. Second place in the group shouldn’t be out of the question either. It’d be a big achievement but not impossible by any stretch

Some expensive drinking spots there!!

Some expensive drinking spots there!!

Irelands gone so bad that I didn’t find Sweden that excessive when we played there in 19.

[ger121]

Yeah Dublin will be very expensive for supporters of those 3 sides.
