Fuck me sideways, will you look at that shitlist. :oops: :lol:

I am so glad we moved the fuck out of that little Highbury dump so we can now rub shoulders with the elite teams of Europe. Thank you Arsene Wenger. Thank you Peter Hill-Wood. Thank you Ken Friar. Thank you Keith Edelman. What a legacy you wonderful men have left for us to enjoy!

There's nothing like reporting on the qualifying rounds of the Europa League to make your cock hard 8)

The dream of Matchday Six in Kazakhstan is in danger! :oops:

Kairat drew 1-1 with Albanian makeweights Skënderbeu Korçë and the famous Irtysh Pavlodar also drew 1-1 with Red Star Belgrade.

TA6's old side Gabala drew 1-1 with Poland's Jagiellonia Białystok. Aberdeen drew 1-1 with Bosnian side Široki Brijeg and the two Irish sides have lost their first legs by one goal.

Amazingly Maltese side Valletta drew 0-0 with Utrecht :shock:

Incidentally, it was fucking ridiculous that Rangers got knocked out by a Luxembourger side in the last round.

By the way, Lichtenstein don't have their own league. Their teams play in the Swiss system, although they play in their own cup competition, but as Vaduz are by far the biggest club there, every cup campaign is a walkover for them, ensuring they will always play in the Europa League. Liechtenstein has no entry into the Be All and End All, however.

So no massive whitewashes yet, although next Thursday will have the thrilling conclusion to the Second Qualifying Round of the greatest competition EVER.

Shit, I've done a Rodders :lol: :barscarf:

Nothing would please me more to earn some coin reading that shite out whilst harbouring a semi next to Our Nat, or the other fine ladies of Sky Sports. Their dressing rooms would not be safe 8)

I'd love us to play an Irish side in the EL, but sadly I doubt Shamrock Rovers or Cork City will overturn their deficits and get though to the group stage to meet us, the glorious and mighty holders of the Nineteen Consecutive Qualifications for the Be All and End All trophy :(

I still hold out hope for Matchday Six in Kazahstan though. We bulldozed Highbury and gave TOF double his money, plus carte blanche for a decade+ for moments like these :barscarf:

Everton join in the next qualifying round, as do AC Milan and the Russian sides Zenit and Krasnodar, plus two Ukrainian sides. Here's hoping we have a game beyond the 30th meridian east 8) If there's no games for us in the former Soviet Union, then the Europa League isn't the great competition I think it is.

Shockingly, I... DO NOT CONCUR :shock: Matchday Six in Greece is a Be All and End All thing, whereas Matchday Six in Kazakhstan is a Europa League thing.

That said, Panathinaikos join in the next qualifying round, as do Arsenal-killers POAK and as I'm sure we all know, Panionios are currently leading their tie to join them.

You must still be in Be All and End All mode, mate. As TOF says, the next level is the next level. And that next level is... The Europa League :barscarf:

Jagshemash! Well said 8)

The only Azeri side I'd want to meet is TA6's old side Gabala :barscarf:

I want maximum humiliation for TOF, with him having to manage us in a game beyond the 30th meridian east, especially in Central Asia, despite it being ridiculous that Kazakhstan are even in UEFA.

I want him to freeze his arse off over 3,400 miles away from London. What's particularly enjoyable is that the two Kazakh sides still in the EL are practically at the borders of China. Have that for your Far East tour, Ivan. Chenqui :mrgreen:
