Now all we have to do is score.....

Should be a big incentive to the players to beat Kaunus.

Uefa seem to be trying to give us an easier passage into a competition that on current evidence we've got no right to be in. A shame that the team are also doing their best to fuck it up.

Would make a change for UEFA to help us out.

Is it not random? I dont think UEFA sit round a table and decide amongst themselves who shall we let Rangers play next.

I might be wrong.

Of course it's random, I wasn't meaning that they were literally helping us out.

When you see the teams Rangers could have got this is like a bye.

Who do Rangers always get pish easy teams?

I mean in the past 7 seasons we have had Ajax, Basel, Spartak Moscow

Rangers get Anorthosis Famagustus, Crevzda Verde(Red Star)?, and now Aalborg

Some teams have all the luck

Kaunas will be cheesin with that draw

We've certainly dodged a bullet with some of the teams in the draw. Unfortunately for us, we look as though we'd struggle against a pub team just now.

Can't believe most people have written off this Danish mob already. They're most likely a better team than Kaunas. Rangers should beat them though.

It's still practically pre-season, there is bound to be rust. A creative midfielder is needed though.

Schalke vs Atletico Madrid is the sort of tie you wanted to avoid.

I don't think anyone's written them off, I certainly haven't. We might not even get as far as playing them. I just think that if you look at the teams we could have got, this is a good potential draw.

No doubt about that it just seems like a lot of Celtic fans are beating on about how Rangers always get the easy draw etc but the way Rangers are playing at present I don't think that it's an easy draw at all. They will need to raise there game a lot to beat Kaunas and even more the beat Aab.

Yeh....I'm sure you said that when Artmedia came out in the hat in wee GS`s start to his Celtic careers...............but then again.........you shouldn't underestimate anybody as easy in Europe!

I think you'll find luck over the season evens itself out.

It's a pity though guys like you were hoping we would get a harder draw.

Maybe if we continued to have Scottish clubs fail in Europe early doors, clubs like your own may be going through pre qualifying stages as well in years to come whether SPL Champions or not!

Open your eyes to the bigger picture.....do you ever do that numbskull?

Good luck to FBK Kaunas against AAB or Modrica.

Anyone spotted who the Aalborg new coach is?

None other than Bruce Rioch.

Why should UEFA help you out?

On another note, I had to laugh at Charlie Adam's comments in the record this morning that Rangers are all fizzing that Kaunas dared to celebrate their 0-0 draw at Ibrox, and will get revenge on them.

Short memories

Yep, lucky for Rangers that only two teams play in each match then.

Oh yeh, hmm......... oh em....... wait the now.......em.....f**k UP!


Why would i want Rangers to get through thus causing my team to lose out on money which would have to split with rangers. the money could be used to further enhance the gap between ourselves and the buns

And of course you will have posted congratulations to Celtic for making it to knockout stages of CL for the 2nd time running last season ????

So what you want is Celtic to be by far the richest club in Scotland, all Scottish teams except Celtic to get fucked in Europe. Everyone to recognise Scottish football is only one team ie Celtic, the whole of Europe to laugh at the Scottish game and think what a Mickey Mouse bunch they are.
Then 10 years down the line, Celtic still end up playing pre qualifying ties year on year ( and that can easily happen if your co efficient is shite ) plus any other Scottish team lucky to get a European spot ( minimum numbers by this stage because we aren't credited high enough) get fucked in the first pre qualifying round. Celtic get knocked out early one year, even with all their money, the co efficient is then fucked even more, and so and so on until 30 years down the line, when one day, Celtic themselves (having won umpteen Scottish league titles because every other club is poor and demoralised ) self destruct and go bankrupt because greedy b*****ds become careless b*****ds and blow all their money, their team is shite because there is no competition week on week to test them either, the game in the country is fucked, no one has any money to bring on youngsters, the national team is rated lower than Andorra and all you Celtic fans that wanted this are meanwhile, lying in a pine box, 6ft under not giving a f**k!

It nearly happened before in the 90`s, it might not take 30 years to happen again.
Wakey wakey time for you I reckon!

Agree,quite astonishing, when they should actually have been throwing you out of all european competitions for the next 3 years after the battle of manchester.

Fully expect Rangers to disposed of Kaunas, and whoever they get in the next round, they should have cancelled todays game to help preparations

Fuckoff ya jinx!! You fully expected us to put 4 or 5 past them at Ibrox.

although in my defence I did put money on the draw at 4/1

Nice. Get much back?

Experienced coach but I think they will miss Hamren, who performed nothing short of a miracle leading them to domestic champions ahead of firstly, Kobenhavn, but also the likes of FC Midtjylland, Brondby and Odense.

Rangers will get a difficult game in Lithuania this week though.

Over the past few seasons the huns have had some excellent draws in Europe compared to us. Last seasons CL draws for us, Moscow aside, were such a disappointment.

If we get Barcelona or Milan again this year I’ll be writing a strongly worded letter to UEFA.

All things considered the winners of the Kaunas game in the next round would be ideal opponents for us. When you look at some of the other teams in pot 4, then we should pray to get them.
