Very happy with that draw, for years I've wanted us to draw Ajax and it's finally happened!! Shame it's in the micky mouse cup though

Porto v City
Napoli v Chelsea will be interesting ties also

Doesn't get any easier for Stoke, after Valencia it'll probably be PSV!

Good luck with that!

Enjoyed Wilkins dismissing Napoli as not a big hurdle...

Cosimo · 16 Dec 2011 at 12:41

Ajax v Man Utd V Lokomotiv Moskva v Athletic

Tom84 · 16 Dec 2011 at 12:42

We play Lokomotiv Moskva or Athletic if we beat Ajax

EDIT: Didn't realise Athletic was Bilbao, another good draw that.

Well it shouldn't be.

I can't see Valencia winning at The Britannia, will depend if they can get a draw away I think.

Hoping Fergie sends Gibson and co. out in this competition. City could easily win it with their "B" team.

Finally get to see if a Spanish side can play at the Britannia on a cold and windy night.

It was not too lomg ago we were playing the likes of Hartlepool, Exeter etc so bring it on.

how about this 10 years ago stolen from our forum

Feb 16 2002 - Notts County v Stoke City - League One ... 0-0 draw in front of 7500

Feb 16 2012 - Stoke City v Valencia - UEFA Cup Round of 32 ... I reckon the crowd may be a little bit bigger
