    The draw is live at 5.15

    I imagine all your fingers are crossed hoping you avoid the mighty Scotland.

    If we do you'll only have two extra shirts to buy instead of three. :D

    Could have been worse. Denmark one of the tougher teams in Pot 2. Pot 4 am very glad we avoided Italy and Switzerland. Serbia are no mugs though and I wouldn't be surprised if our opening game is a draw.

    If we win Group C we automatically get a 2nd round tie against a 3rd placed team from either D, E, or F, then a 1/4 final against the runner up from A or B.

    Agreed completely. But if we'd got Italy and Netherlands it would have made things somewhat trickier and any slip-up in the group stage could have been fatal. As it is I think we'll be able to ease ourselves in nicely. 2 out of the 3 opponents are strong enough to present a very decent challenge, but there's no excuse for not winning that group. Still think we'll draw with Serbia though.

    I reckon Scotland have every chance of getting out of that group.

    Play-offs will be a challenge! Cymru v Finland 21 March then winner of that match will play winner of Poland v Estonia on n26 March.
    then here's the little problem of playing Austria, Netherlands and France in the Group Stage --

    Rob Page we love you!! Yma o Hyd!
