Gaztoon Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Can't friggin wait for later.. Imagine thinking we would be in this draw when we was rock bottom under Ashley and Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 We got taken over in October 2021 and we were staring relegation right in the face. In February 2022, Trippier smacked a free kick into the back of the net at home in front of the Gallowgate end and we finally climbed out of the bottom 3. We went on to finish mid table. Following season we finished 4th and secured Champions League football for the first time in 20+ years. On August 31st, we are hours away from drawing 3 other teams in the Champions League. Unbelievable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myleftboot Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Just throwing it out there but does anyone think the reason the last 2 games weren’t as ‘intensity is our identity’ is because some players are holding back a bit because they don’t want to get injured for the champions league games. 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man City were just a bit too good with their possession, probably demoralised us to a certain extent, and the Liverpool game just went a bit odd after the red card (well in the second half anyway). We were bang on it in that first 25 mins or so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paullow Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) Hoping for Feyenoord in Pot 1, Copenhagen in Pot 3, and then anybody in Pot 2. Was originally hoping for two big teams for some memorable nights and to really test the team, but now hoping it's a bit more straightforward. One huge team in Pot 2 should still give us a good chance in getting through, and a couple of big nights, but the competitiveness of the Premier League has kind of changed my outlook a bit. Defo want Copenhagen and would look to make that trip. Edited August 31, 2023 by Paullow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've quickly scrolled past any news related to the Premier League. I have no idea if my fantasy team won this past weekend. Had no idea we drew City until this morning. The CL theme has been playing on repeat this morning and I'm now looking forward to this, but that result really ruined me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Whew this has come around quick, had no idea it was today. Gonna get the cans out and the CL theme tune blasting all day now, it's got to be done Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
