Ask @Sooper-hanz / @Fridge

That’s up to them. I have no interest in that.

Stop derailing another thread.

Run along

agreed

This policing is exhausting 

Fancy wiping the slate clean and only judging/reacting to whatever we do or say from here on?

See how we get on?

Fweeends.

Aye, whatever

Knowing our luck we'd get AC Milan in the PO round.

There's at least one other team that would be more difficult than them.

Just having a look at the Viking FK highlights from yesterday. They look a very decent side.

Difficult to judge them on this video, as Molde looked really poor - see the miss at 1.25 (almost a replica to Cosgrove's goal against Hearts in last season's opener - except Cosgrove scored), and the defending for Viking's third at 2.30 (I can't see us making it that easy for Viking).

Was a great finish for their 2nd goal though.

[WesthillWanderersFC]

FFS.

Toughest draw we could get.

Again

[redstrummer]

yep was hoping for a home tie , nae luck

[G31DON]

Piece of pastel de nata

[StandFree1982]

At least it's not Tottenham or Milan....

I'll always fancy our chances in a one leg game against most sides. 

[slippers]

Absolutely disgusting draw! Worst team possible yet again! When does Portuguese league start?

The weekend before the QR3 game.

Not terrible news then! I felt we had a very minute chance in other 2 potential ties but this 1 is by far the worst. 

[Andy_123]

Most difficult teams we could have drawn away from home in both QR2 and 3. Very harsh.

Would still be expecting us to get past Viking though.

[RUL]

They've had a lot of financial issues I read, hence the sale of Fernandez to man utd. Talk of losing the star striker too.

It's a tough draw, assuming we get past Viking, but even worse as it would have been a great trip for the fans.

[CityCentre]

So shit that we can't go, amazing draw too.

[OnceFaeMintlaw]

The disparity between Maribor and Coleraine must be greater than the disparity between Sporting Lisbon and ourselves.  No?  Yeah?

So, providing we sort out the Vikings, we can do this..

[slippers]

The rangers beat Porto who won the league 2-0 and drew 1-1. Sporting finished 4th 22 points behind Porto and they lost there most influential player in Jan. 
 

Trying to find the positives... 

[DelMonte]

Huns saw off Porto and Braga last season so it's nae as daunting as folk think. Braga looked especially shite.

It is away from home, very very tough tie.

[TynesideDon]

Shit draw against the Norweigians and then an even shitter one if we get through. PSV would have very tough but this one will be near enough impossible. Nae luck in these draws mind.

[Ten Caat]

Ach assuming we reach Q3 it's a bit of a free hit for us. No one really will expect us to get through the tie and we can go there and either have a right old go at them or (more likely knowing DM) try to hold them off as long as possible and try to take it to penalties ?

It's the type of tie that players join us to experience. At the very worst, the players will learn something from it

[BitWait]

Turn up , do our best , see what happens. Nobody expects us to win both games but being underdog relieves the pressure and fires the gut.

[sheepcrooky]

Get past the noggies. Portugal will have just started their leagues. There is a small chance. But by Christ, we don’t get it easy in these draws. 
 

That is the precise reason you need to take your chances. the rangers on the back of a couple of good seasons (and some decent results it must be said) get their ranking up significantly enough to get reasonable draws.
