Life isn't all beer and football...some of us haven't touched a football in months
UEFA Cup draw is on at 12.30pm Irish time.
It is a really good first round draw but Dynamo is too hard for most teams to contend, like last year, one of worst 2nd Round Draws, the league needs a lucky break some time in the 2nd Round thats how other small teams got into the Champions League over the years, their draws were favourable.
Brings back memnories of the sheer excitement waiting for the Euro draws in 2006...
Drogs should have too much for Levadia over two legs, one would hope.
Kiev would be a very tough challenge for them. On the plus side they're a well-known name so should attract a few curious people along to Dalymount (I assume that's where they'll play). On the downside, Kiev is probably an expensive trip for an Irish team.
Difficult to see Linfield getting anywhere with Zagreb.
I think the year we're losing is a really bad year (is it five years since Shels lost to Hibs?), so anything is a gain this year really.
There has never been a better time to play Dinamo Kyiv. Last year FK Sarajevo nearly beat them in R3.
Agree with the other comments, Linfield have no chance against Dynamo Zagreb.
UEFA Cup draw in about 2 mins. Going through Central/East region now.
Best of luck to Cork and Pat's in the draw.
Decent enough draw for Drogs.
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"
Great draw for Glentoran - Pats or Cork would have loved Metalurgs

Manchester City are gone.
We are nowhere near to playing at the Group stages.
Sorry to burst your bubble...
Olimps v Pats
Olimps (Latvia) vs. St. Pat's.
Brilliant! Great chance for Pats - second worst seed available!

look who pats got,

we can take this lot
Cork City vs. Haka (Finland)
Could have been worse for Cork as well - I'd give them a fighting chance in Finland - the way the draw was coming out I thought they'd get Copenhagen for a while there.

Them draws aren't too bad. Couldn't have been much easier for St. Pat's and Cork managed to avoid the bigger clubs.
