Someone posted something which might affect one of the European home matches. Surely that should be talked about. Two years ago we were talking about Legia at home as things happening around that match might have had a knock-on. I don't think anyone (in this thread at least) are "whiping" the fan-base.

The Legia at home game didn't divide the fan base like this is doing. Thats my issue with it. Anyway heres to a villa win whoever we are playing against.   

The thing is the very fact that there is a divide is exactly why Israeli clubs shouldn't be involved. It's not a judgement on whether they're right or wrong, it's acknowledging that there are very strong opinions on both sides, which massively increases the risk of violence. As I said earlier how the police view this game will have a huge impact but I can't imagine they'll be happy with the idea of a couple of thousand Israeli fans wandering around the city all day right now.

Regardless of opinions of what is going on out there, they shouldn't be in the competition because not one part of the country is actually in Europe

I think there are some factors beyond geography that they’re in UEFA rather than the AFC.

Bologna tickets opened up to members this morning - they seem to be selling well.

They've sold very well. Looks like only Terrace View left in the Holte and singles elsewhere.

All it does is divide our fanbase. There are some of us with profoundly different views on this subject and whilst I respect the rights of others to have their own different views, personally I don't come on H and V to see others trying to whip the fan base into some protest around it.

This is nothing, you want to see it when we discuss the really important stuff, like the correct condiment for a bacon sandwich.

I've heard people who don't put butter on their bacon sarnies prefer to use ketchup (but are too ashamed to admit it, obvs).

I've picked up tickets for the Bologna and Salzburg games, managed to grab a seat for myself for both in the trinity as the other 2 clash with gigs i've got booked in already. Always enjoy European night matches

Yes although re-reading the website, ST holder have until the 11th to buy their seats, when they will be released, so I suspect a few more will come online on Thursday.

The Dutch have got a decent spliff going so I reckon next Tuesday.

Other generic racial stereotypes are available.

Choosing to ignore the political side of football and this match doesn't stop them being political.

Hard to ignore genocide on a daily basis.

We should have a pre-match memorial to the hundreds of Palestinian footballers killed in the last two years.
