Jambo in Yorkshire Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Draw procedure The 76 teams have been divided into six groups (groups 1 to 6) of ten teams, and two groups (7 and 8) of eight teams. Within the eight groups an equal number of clubs will be seeded and unseeded in accordance with the club rankings established at the beginning of the season. Clubs from the same association can not be drawn against each other. For each group, the balls containing the seeded teams will be placed in one bowl and the balls containing the unseeded teams in another. A ball will be taken from each bowl and placed in a large empty bowl in the middle, where they will be shuffled. The first team drawn will play its first match at home against the second team drawn. The same procedure is carried out with the remaining balls to complete all the pairings and also applies for the remaining groups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

interista Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 On the down side, the Litex Lovech ground only has a capacity of 7,050. Assuming they have to give us 5%, that would mean just over 350 tickets if we drew them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Everton would give us more than enough. They would struggle to fill the ground so will probably give us about 10,000.

savage Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 just had a thought, does anybody think vlad is waiting on the draw before sactioning a striker, just thinking that if we drew some team we are confident of taking care off he would think of the money generated in the group, if we draw werder bremen the target may not be as exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
