    I'm still buzzing from the Celtic game last night. One of the best games i have ever been to. The atmosphere was just incredible.

    What a group we have now though. Barca (again), Milan (again) and Ajax.

    It doesn't get much harder than that. Glamour games though. All of them!

      They'll be great matches though. And Amsterdam for the away leg is nice and close.

              I'm hoping and praying the Barcelona game in Glasgow is in November so I can fly home to watch it. Either way, seeing any of those teams play I don't mind but I haven't had the chance to see Messi play in person yet, would be something pretty special. I'd settle for the same scoreline the last time they came to Glasgow!

                If anything, those 3 teams could all take points off each other. So i suppose that's one thing.

                Our home form will have to be at it's absolute best again. With our budget for players etc anyway, we shouldn't even be close to competing with these teams. But we always seem to punch above our weight...

                      Good point, you could get through with impressive home form, no team likes playing Celtic at home.

                          I wanted the Barca group for Steaua Bucharest, however we have a good chance to qualify against Chelsea, Schalke and Basel.

                            That's a tough group good luck with that...

                            I am glad we are the favorite of Group C

                              Yeah, why not? Have you seen Steaua play lately? We've got a good team nowadays. I'm really confident we can finish the group on the second position.

                                    Be careful they could still land Suarez, Bale, Mata, Ronaldo and Pele before the end of the transfer window.

                                            Nightmare. Well it's either fly home for the Ajax or Milan game. I think we can beat Ajax at Celtic park so I'll probably do that game. I wonder if I could extend my European trip to include Glasgow, I'm due back on September 29th anyway, would only be 4 extra days. I may have to look into that, after I leave Budapest just fly into Glasgow for a few days.

                                              Means if we need any points to qualify, we are fucked!

                                                Not if Barca have already qualified, and rest a few players.

                                                  modern football is pure shit. if the name of this competition is champions league why the uefa allow 4 teams from 1 league...its boring we watch the same matches every year. where is ferencvaros, dynamo zagreb, crvena zvezda, levski sofia, legia warsawa, rosenborg, göteborg etc.

                                                      Every club's results in European competition over the past five years are counted equally, with no weighting to favour the most recent seasons - so the seeding reflects long-term consistency, rather than rewarding recent excellence.

                                                      Whether you think it is fair probably depends on which club you support and which country you come from. Although domestic results are not part of the calculation, the national coefficient counts towards each team's total too - so it is better to come from a country with a stronger record in Europe.

                                                      Top three countries get four teams in the Champions League.

                                                      The rules could do with a small revamp as players don't necessarily play in the country where they were born making the national results kind of irrelevant but when you look at the table above the majority of the world class players we all want to see are from those countries!

                                                      Its called the champions league for a reason. Why the hell would anyone want 4 teams in the competition from countries where the team that won the league cant even get any points in the group phase and worst case not even score a goal. The pre-qualifying stage is the chance for the teams you listed to get a shot at being in it but they were not good enough to do it.

                                                        If they dont qualify for the group stages tough.

                                                        The 4th team from EN/DE/ES all had to go through the pre qualifying.

                                                        Celtic does every year yet they manage it.

                                                        These aren't your usual champions league teams either.

                                                              Celtic beat Barcelona in the Champions League last year in the group stage, finished 2nd in that group, won the domestic league by a distance again, yet STILL had to come through 3 qualifying rounds yet again just to get in the group stage this year.

                                                              It's a pain in the ass but it won't change anytime soon.

                                                              It's like we are being punished because the other teams in our domestic league are shit...
