    what's the reasoning for the groups, is it to keep costs down for the smaller clubs?

    Yes and I am surprised they have not done it with the Europa League, maybe they have and have just yet to publish it

    Some bloke called Ole Gunnar Solskjær is the Molde Manager!!

    They've been struggling so badly this season, 2nd bottom after being bottom for ages. A few big scoring wins of late though. Sligo will be underdogs but still have a shout.

    Molde will make short work of them imo

    We'll just have to get a good lead at the showgrounds then.

    Better teams don't always win the ties as Celtic showed in last seasons Champions League

    Good to know we have a Norwegian football expert here.

    How many games did you get to last season?

    Very easy to upset the LOI heads on here.

    True, I would like Sligo to cause the upset but Molde are the better team, very hard for some to stomach that it seems.

    Given you got the reaction you were looking for I doubt that somehow.

    The one that says Molde will make "short work" of Rovers?

    Like a child, commenting about something he clearly knows nothing about in my book.
