On-topic: I hope they draw Glasgow Rangers or one of the English teams. Short trip and thanks to EasyJet and RyanAir it would be an excellent opportunity to see Rosenborg close to home.
Ok, now let's keep this on topic. If anyone wants to discuss Gerrit's preference choices anymore they can do it elsewhere.

I imagine Rosenborg aren't looking at a good campaign being 4th seeds and their abysmal league season so far.
4th seeds ?? Man, what does UEFA want more ?? 12 participations in 13 years aren't enough to be at least 3rd seeds or what ?!![]()
Oh well, I hate the CL just for this particular reason, why do I even bother trying to think the "protect the big ones" will ever change... Not as long as Johansson has the power![]()
And I make no illusions... RBK will not have their best campaign, but being in the league is already that. They will at least get some nice cash flowing in, and that's quite important now that Valerenga has a rich sponsor, the Ch.League money will keep us on track with VIF financially...
I hope to grab a few points, it will mainly have to happen at home. Lerkandal in full winter (and winter-esque conditions start early as Trondheim is not far from the arctic circle) has proven to be a very tough place to play for most European teams. I remember (one of the sweetest memories for every Rosenborg fan) Real Madrid beaten 2-0 in Lerkendal but also Rosenborg was dominating them from beginning to start ; I'd say the wintery conditions helped us that night as Real was clearly not feeling too well that night (apart from us playing a great game)
I think I'd be pleased with a 3rd spot and a few more UEFA Cup games.
