Home game on 6th November please. I'm in Brum anyway that week. Looking at stopping over for the Bournemouth game too.

Glad we're not playing on Saturday to make fancying around with flights easier.

I hope we're at home that first game in September.

I hope we’re away, my Wedding Anniversary is 25th.

Fancy getting married in the football season Chris! I ruled that out immediately.

Young Boys away was on my wedding anniversary last season (*of course I went!).

Last 16 tie (if we get that far) is bang on the missus’ birthday this season….. don’t think I’ll pull that one off. 🫤

Be nice to tick off another European Cup finalist in Red Star.

October 26th 1991 was my wedding day. Think we beat Wimbledon 2-1.
One of the only handful of home games ive missed since.
Definitely terrible planning on my part.
Amazingly still married!

I got married 1998 and the next day was either Middlesbrough or Bolton at home (can’t remember which) but I was there - Dwight had just signed for United

Ha ha, it was the day we won at Manu in 2021. I knew we’d won by the cheer at the reception when Kortney scored.

Belgrade is said to be choc full of beautiful women.

It is what my Dad would refer to, in his 1950s slang, as 'a wanker's paradise'

I was going to state I hope a couple of English teams get Celtics conquerors away because that is a 8 hour flight each way, but I suspect most would just send their reserves.

I don't think teams can afford to risk sending their reserves in the current format unless it is at least the seventh game and they're pretty sure they will finish top 8/9th-24th/outside the top 24. In the Champions League, at least. More flexibility in the other competitions.
