Should be fairly straight forward enough to get through to the 3rd round. A pish team with lots of travel, and a pish or average team with not much travel.

Anyone worried is at it.

Watch a bit of Norwegian football, they have been more inconsistant this season dometically but they have a very experienced squad. They also have more firepower this season. They added Soderlund who will prove a handful. They also knocked Ajax out of Europe last season and drew with Zenit. They should have beat us in the home leg last season, they missed 3 absolute sitters. We need to Strengthen to give ourselves a better chance. There best player Helland was also injured last season for the tie and will probably play this season against us.

We go into the next round of Europa qualifying if we're knocked out in any round before the playoff. If we lose the CL playoff we go straight to the group stage of the Europa.

lets hope BT pick these games up as I ended up with Premier sports for about 4 months last year as kept forgetting to cancel it as they only give you about 10 days a month to do so.
No matter what I wont be giving those bastards my money. Dodgy as hell. Sat in a queue twice for up to 2 hours trying to cancel their shampooe package. Their HD channel did not work for me either.

We beat Rosenborg over 2 legs last season and never had a single striker available to start in either leg home or away.

This year we will have Dembele, Edouard & Griffiths available.

Also Hayes, Sviatchenko and Bitton all played over there in leg 2. We should be in a much better position this year.

If no new injuries are suffered in pre-season, the only players who'll be missing for this one are the ones at the World Cup. They'll be missed (even Gamboa as he'd be an obvious replacement for Lustig), but we'll still be putting out a stronger side than we were able to last year.

It's a tired old cliche but ffs we can't be frightened of playing teams like Rosenberg if our aim is to be in the CL groups, let alone remotely competitive when we get there.

I'm aware of that.

Nothing major to worry about so far though. Doubt any of those 3 teams will be spending close to £10m on a striker before they play us.

I’ve just realised I’m still paying for that after last years rosenborg game. Forgot all about it because it was just added on to the virgin bill, what a dick :lol:
