Match Thread (Europa League) Aberdeen V Fola Esch (3 - 1)

[Tord31]

Fully expect this lot to be worse than the Latvians we faced a couple of years ago

 

I doubt we'll beat our record win though- 7-0 the Dons

St Paddys play the other Esch side today. Think that'll give us an indication eg when St Patricks win 2-0...

Premier showing the second leg

[vanderark14]

If I remember correctly, BBC sportsound didn't even bother with our first round last time. I might have to invest in red tv

Good stuff, last year I don't think they even covered it.

Bit frustrating really.

 

You just know that The Rangers could be playing a Euro Qualifier against The Flumps second XI on the same day as a World Cup final and BBC Scotland would probably televise it.

will they have us or hearts as the commentary match?

[Scotty_Toronto]

RedTV live video and/or (just) commentary options for international subscribers, as well as having live commentary for UK subscribers.

Are the games on at the same time?

They have the commentary rights for both games, home and away.

 

Presume they'll be on different frequencies.

Its only on MW unless you want to listen to Brian Burnett so either they have a single commentary and highlights of the other or open all mics which for two games seems pointless

[Bamber]

Home ties 15 min later, away tie 45 mins earlier

[Tord31]

St Patrick's are 1-0 up at half time against the other Esch team

[buchanskii]

Tord min you are a fountain of knowledge.

 

Respect

[caledonia]

Will afc be streaming the home leg for redtv international?

 

 

We can now confirm that Thursday night's Europa League clash with CS Fola Esch at Pittodrie will be broadcast live on RedTV International.

 

Also re tickets saw on twitter they are now doing print at home from today

[Tord31]

St Patrick's are 1-0 up at half time against the other Esch team

finished 1-0

[Tord31]

My extrapolation of that result leads me to predict a 3-0 win for the Dons on Thursday.

I was thinking at least 3 as well

[mavv1903]

I predict a pretty tight game and a 2-0 win

[Panda]

 

 

Its only on MW unless you want to listen to Brian Burnett so either they have a single commentary and highlights of the other or open all mics which for two games seems pointless

Or both online commentary?

 

BBC definitely have rights to, and plan to, stream radio commentary of both clubs, and both legs.

Cheers mate, looks like no sleep for me tomorrow night before work

[Chewie37]

I think we are probably just ahead of them........

Around 10,500 tickets sold I believe with two days of sales still to go.

 

That's no too bad I suppose. Would like to think we'd have got to the Shendija or Daugava Riga numbers of 14,000-15,000 but it doesn't likely.

10,500 is pretty good considering there's a lot of skint folk right now and that these games aren't covered by season tickets.

[StandFree1982]

I messaged premier sports. Showing the return leg, sweet

They announced it yesterday on their Twitter account.

[dave_min]

They announced it yesterday on their Twitter account.

MT thought it was a message just for him.

[RUL]

They are clearly shite.. 5-0 Aberdeen

[360]

Will this be "pick uppable" by a pub in greece? As in any channels a pub could pick up you think?

 

Very unlikely, only being shown on RedTV International.
