Off the top of my head I don't know but I think there could be another knockout tie after this one. I'm sure someone will correct me if im wrong.

It's shi.t though! This competition is a friggin marathon. But we should be able to get away with playing some of the youngsters.

Where are these lot from? FFS tell me it isn't Turkey. Must we endure weeks of these "welcome to hell" posters, silly c...s pledging damnation to all who dare to travel.

Liverpool have been drawn to face Turkish side Trabzonspor in the play-off round of the Europa League.

The first leg of the tie is scheduled for Thursday, August 19, with the return due to take place a week later on August 26.

Details of where each leg will be played and kick-off times will be confirmed in due course.

Who are Trabzonspor?

Trabzonspor are nicknamed Bordo-Mavililer - the Maroon-Blues.

They play their home games at the Huseyin Avni Aker Stadium, which has a capacity of approximately 20,000.

They've enjoyed great success over the years, winning the Turkish Super League six times, and the Turkish Cup on eight occasions.

Trabzonspor lifted the latter earlier this year after beating Fenerbahce 3-1 in the final, while they claimed a fifth-placed finish in the league.

They are managed by Senol Gunes, who famously led Turkey to third in the 2002 World Cup finals.

Liverpool have met Trabzonspor once before as the two sides clashed in the second round of the 1976-77 European Cup. After losing the first leg 1-0 in Turkey, the Reds ran out comprehensive 3-0 winners in the return meeting thanks to goals from Steve Heighway, David Johnson and Kevin Keegan.

Have we played them before, sound familiar?

Look fella, no doubt you do think Trabzonspor are a good team. In Turkey they probably are. Fortunately for you, we aren't exactly World beaters either so it might be a reasonable match. Can you go back onto your own forum though and tell the legion of silly c...s who are no doubt planning a ram raid on here to save themselves the bother.

[jacdaniel]

There is some seriously sh.ite teams in this comp.  I see Robotniki won there last tie 11 - 0 on Agg.  the match before we beat them clearly.
