      Airbus UK are doing quite well – they play at Broughton, just over the border past Chester.

      The UK teams don’t seem to meet in the early rounds. Is that just coincidence, I wonder, or are they deliberately kept apart?

      Are you Ironing board George or that Cheesman fella ?

      Didn’t City play TNS a couple of years ago
      I think it’s more coincidence than anything. Look at the number fo teams involved in those early rounds & the chances of winding up against a coupel from Wales & likewise from Scotland are pretty slim

      The old Stockport & Blackpool striker Andy Preece is manager at Airbus. I think they went full time a year or so ago too. God knows how they manage that when they get an average attendance of about half what Skem Utd pull in – no doubt they’ll soon go the way of other WPL full time clubs like Barry Town, Neath & Llanelli

      I’ve been to Wisla Krakow, and yes indeed, they are nutters.

      I saw loads of skinheads drinking what looked like huge cartons of fresh orange juice. Are they on a health kick? I thought.

      Closer inspection revealed they contained VODKA and orange juice.

      I WOULD go there, but I would exercise extreme caution, as they may have a pop at ‘anything English’ if they were playing us.

      Lovely little City, over 400 bars in the square mile of the old town.

      To be honest I know of a few blokes who have been there as tourists & got a kickin off some locals but when I went I didn’t have any problems.
      We were gonna watch Krakowia who played whilst we were there but got advised that it’d be advisable not to
      In my brief time watching England abroad I also spoke to plenty of fellas about their trips & there were some horror stories about Poland. One particular lad who’d been all over the shop (who was a city fan & who my brother-in-law [also a city fan] was aware of as someone more than willing to get “stuck in”) said he’d never set foot in the country again as a football fan & that Krakow was worst of all
      IF latics were to get in europe a nice leisurely trip to Belgium, Holland, France, germany or Scandanavia wouldn’t go amiss first time out

      Belgium is easily accessible, has some attractive old cities and is famous for its beer and chips. What more could you want?

      They’ve got a good football tradition, but most of their better players are here – Benteke, Dembele, Fellaini, Hazard, Kompany, Lukaku, Mignolet, Mirallas, Veremaelen and Vertongen. You could build a half-decent team around them.
