UEFA Europa Conference League - Alkmaar, Legia and Zrinjski

Best thing about Derry is that you can watch 2 teams play home games in the same stadium, but in different Association's Leagues (Derry City and Institute).

Think Institute's ground was damaged, so they groundshare with Derry.

river overflowed  badly and think knotweed was discovered on the land

Probably been posted previously, but with first qualifying round second legs this week, I thought I’d post other dates of note. I’ll also put them into the Tv games moved thread as potentially the Saturday fixtures after every date will be moved to Sunday kick offs, regardless of live Tv or not

That’s a sharp turnaround between the 3rd qualifying round and the play offs. Only a week between us knowing who we are playing and the actual game itself. Is this correct or am I reading it wrong?

Good point, Unai will only be able to analyse their last 15 games in that short timeframe.

He’s probably analysed every team in it since we qualified. Not much time to book travel etc but I’d rather be in this position than not at all.

[olaftab]

I don't think every team we could play in the play offs will be involved in the Third Qualifying round? So there is a chance that we will know the opposition on 7 August.

Didn't Larne win the league up north, recently? I remember how they were whipping boys when I half-followed the Norn Irish league, growing up.
Seemed unlikelier than Lesta (or us) becoming the champions of England.

My mum is from Larne. It's easily the worst town in the world.

I went there for a week with work in about 2006, christ what a toilet. It seemed to be mainly Unionist (is that right?) and everybody was dressed like a video about the Troubles from the 70s. Gangs of filthy teenagers in flapping flares carting loads of pallets around to make a huge bonfire.

That would make sense. I did wonder if I’d got it right. Thanks.

Yes, it's overwhelmingly Unionist. I haven't been there for over a decade, but when I was out drinking with my cousin and uncle last time, I was strongly advised not to tell anyone my name!

Edit: my name is Paddy, for anyone who doesn't know!

[Risso]

In case they'd seen your stand up?

[Sexual Ealing]

Even more basic than that!

[Meanwood Villa]

This is correct but odds are it will be an either/or draw as only five teams (including us) enter at that round.

Incidentally, Wikipedia still have Juve competing in it. Has something changed since they were supposedly banned?

[Ger Regan]

I was in Larne once and did note their enthusiastic support of flags and not surrendering.
