Well watched all our potential opponents, Red Star looked the best, Lille looked a disorganised rabble though have some good players, PAOK looked very average to shite and Celta looked very calm and organised but a bit lightweight.

O'Neill can not be humiliated enough in Europe for me since Moscowgate.

So assuming these scores stay the same on aggregate who do we play?

Either Red Star or Celta Vigo

Finishing higher in the league phase gives you the supposed advantage of playing your away leg first, both in the play off games and in the knock out stage. This seems reasonable.
However tonight has seen 16 games resulting in 2 home wins, 3 draws, and 11 away wins. There are going to be a lot of dead rubber 2nd legs.
