The New Saints FC (former Total Network Solutions)  look like they will drop into the Europa League from the Champions League, being 3-1 down after the first leg and being based in Shropshire would be incredibly easy to get to.


How do you say that... sh-rops-hire ... now that sound  interesting place to go to!

The New Saints are based in a village called Llansantfraid, just across the border about 30 mins drive past Shrewsbury. A mate of mine his mom lives there so he hired their clubhouse for his 50th birthday bash which resulted in them having to switch a League of Wales fixture to a friday night.
Most probably they would switch any European game to Wrexham though.

I don't think there would be any chance that TNS could hold a Villa match at their place, it's just a crap athletics stadium with one stand and not much else, the police wouldn't allow it.

Not anymore they're not. They merged with Oswestry Town and now play in Oswestry. When they played Man City and Liverpool in Europe both their home matches were played at the Millennium Stadium.

I just hope we give this competition a real go this season.

A good run in Europe would enhance our reputation with players further afield (and create great memories for us fans too).

The other picture was better. Would have Dave feeling right at home at Lambs Lane, or wherever his tinpot non-league club play their irrelevant rubbishy games...

I don't mind, really. I just hope that the home leg of our first fixture is on the 26th August. I've already paid for my ticket and cannot make the 19th.


So at least we know we will be at home on the 19th then. *winky thing*

Aye.

4th is extremely unlikely but a good run and matches against top class opposition is achievable in this comp.
