Managed to get 2 flights from Gatwick for £150. They are 2 to 3 times that now.

On the plus side the travelling around the Spurs match is light but it is one of the tougher matches.

Different level of opposition but I almost feel like we were playing better in the league when we had mid week European games to play too.

I recall some of the players saying as much (momentum etc)

Be interesting to see ticket pricing down B6, not that i'd go.

Any guesses if the away leg will drop down to season ticket allocation? Not sure whether to take the risk on flights, as only plan on going if I can get a ticket.

The timing of these 2 games could not be any worse.

Can't lie, this is the tie I'd wanted us to avoid. The positive is that should we win this, I wouldn't fear anyone beyond.

Battle of European Cup Winners. A tie most suitable for a Champions League last 16. Two great clubs colloide, I hope Huntelaar doesn't score again as he did during days of Nicky Shorey.

I'm inferring from the BBC that only one of us has won the European Cup......

In the Europa Conference League, Aston Villa - the last remaining British team in that competition - must overcome former European champions Ajax.

Southgate will be naturally delighted that he will get to watch more Henderson and pretend he watched some of our English players.

Excellent!  Looking forward to this.  Ajax are one of those teams with the fanbase, the history and the ground to match.

The bookies don't seem to agree, Ajax are 14/5 and we're 4/5 on to win the away game.

Our European Cup win? You'd think we'd mention it.
