I would like us to play an old well known European name like Hadjuk Split or Dynamo Tbilisi.

Will be somewhat different looking forward to a European draw.

The Challenge Cup draw used to be a highlight.

This is the first European venture in my lifetime. Can’t wait to see who we get and will do all I can to make the away game (I’ll be at the home tie).

As these are midweek games I can't be there, so what are the chances of tv coverage? If I remember correctly BBC had Aberdeen's qualifying game last year. If not BBC, will St Mirren tv cover the games?

If we're only allocated 5% then very few of us will be there.

Had to go with Easyjet from Edinburgh a few years ago as there were no flights from Newcastle back then. Was a reasonably priced fare iirc but not sure on availability these days.
