Great draw for Spurs if they can see past Slavia then they probably face PSV which is also a winnable tie. I would be disappointed if didn't get to the quarters again.
Bolton got a horror draw. Atletico has bags of class

Spurs have the best draw. Shouldent be too tricky really and Ramos' magic seems to be rubbing off on the players now. Could win the UEFA Cup if their defending stays as solid as it has been in the last two games.
Rangers have a tricky tie. Panathinaikos are a great side and one of the favourites for the cup will have to be eliminated early on there.
Bolton could sneak through but it will be difficult for them and well Aberdeen wont get through.

We went to Greece a few years back with the worst Rangers team in living memory and drew 1-1. I am optimistic. In January we are signing players who'll bring flair to our true grit, which is what we lacked and why we went out of the CL.
Unlucky to the dons though... deserved a little better luck after humping Copenhagen.

^ Yeah that sucks for Aberdeen. Worked so hard to get through and then they get Bayern. Although, on the other hand when will most Don supporters be able to say they saw their team face a giant club like Bayern.
Norm I fancy Rangers as one of the favorites to win it.

^ Bayern arent really that much of a massive force this season, seeing as bolton drew with them, at their place !!!
Atletico are a good side, but i think we could put in a massive performance at home, reduce the tickets to around Ł5, get a full house, and play old style football, defending with numbers, attacking with speed, we could do it (plus iwill be there for the home fixture)

^ Well Steve for entertainment purposes it is a good draw because Atletico plays good attacking football. Oh and as for Aberdeen vs Bayern, true Bayern may not be what they usually are but I think Bolton is far stronger than Aberdeen as well
