Thats what the ECL is about That's where I'm at too Also think for all the reputation none of the teams (Newcastle included) are actually as good as they're made out to be The danger with the whole taking the piss and group of death stuff is Newcastle could get out of it... Dortmund will finish bottom
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 31, 2023 Posted August 31, 2023 Its sad we’ve never played CL football. Whats this, Barcodes 3rd campaign?

Zatman Posted August 31, 2023 Posted August 31, 2023 Arsenal have got the regular Chelsea type of group

But why... They're not going to win it, so you'd want to get out of the group so you can have a big game vs a big European team such as psg, Milan or dortmund... 1 hour ago, Xela said: I'd want the big teams under the lights.

This is bang on The whole point of thay competition at Newcastles level or our level is just one of those big famous European nights, like us vs ajax in my lifetime being pretty much the only one, Newcastle have potentially got 3 coming up, that's more important that a piss easy group and then losing to PSG in the 2nd round 1

Atmosphere was electric in both. 2

An Premier League side are always in with a chance of winning it imo. But yes you right exciting games with a chance of qualifying too. 2
