UEFA Europa Conference League - Alkmaar, Legia and Zrinjski

[Brazilian Villain]

I've just read through and worked out the format for the ECL and feel like I should be awarded an A-Level or something...

They were going to have a Conference League themed question on Only Connect but it was deemed too difficult.

I'm looking forward to August 7th more than my birthday.

Me too. Although we won't know who we're playing until 17th. Unless the first leg results in a comprehensive win for someone.

Is that right? I thought we played on the 17th?

We play on the 24th and 31st.

Then I've booked the wrong time off work 🙃
Thank you for bringing this to my attention

Unlucky…..Eddie😊

Nah, he found out in time to change it so Lucky again.

It's almost as complicated as the knockout system for Only Connect...

Of course the competition has the debris of 2 other competitions to pick up as they go along

Seems a fitting way to acknowledge the devaluation of both A-levels and european football.

Just booked an apartment with a view of the Acropolis for 5 days for the 26th to the 31st. Tempting fate like a Kopite here.

Me and my mate have done the same. Worst case scenario it's a few days in a historic city I've never been to.

Yeah my thinking too. Oozing history, places to go and eat, so worst things happen at sea. Still, if we could win the thing, then even better. Gatwick seems to be best for flights.

Booked mine 2 weeks ago. Same basis if no final then nice little holiday

I’ve been watching some of the matches in the play off rounds and can’t believe how small some of the grounds are. One of them seemed to be in the middle of a forest!! If we draw that team, whoever they were, I’d imagine we would be allocated 10 tickets for our away following!!

Who's that?

There's a lot of sub 10k grounds. Ballkani who are likely to make it to the 3rd qualifying round have a 3k capacity. I only know that as I randomly looked them up the other day. There's quite possibly smaller grounds as well.

The Andorran grounds are fun. They're all tiny and tucked into whatever flat land they can find for them so most have mountains pressed up on 2-3 sides.

I spotted yesterday that Haverfordwest have had to host their home game in Cardiff on Thursday (a mere 2-hour drive from their home ground, but a 30-minute walk for me) , so I've stumped up a princely £11  for a ticket. Attendance looks like it will be about 1k in a 33k stadium.

I'm spending all week in the office telling the Cardiff City fans how exciting it is to have European football in town.

They lost 2-1 away, didn't they?  So not impossible that Haverfordwest could be in the 3rd qualifying round ...
