Happy Champions League 20:43 - Feb 11 with 1480 viewswessex_exile

Right then folks, apologies but a bit rushed because life has sort of caught up with me on a number of fronts, but the 4 mini-league groups for the qualifying rounds have been drawn, as follows:

Group A
---------
Gate
Sevebalo 
MFB 

Group B
---------
Thrillseeker 
Guerno 
Blue4U2

Group C
---------
Eagle 
BFG 
Tropical U's

Group D
---------
Hellasblue 
Aldo 
Ethics 

Top two from each Group go through, and the fixtures as follows:

TUE 12 FEB 2013
Valencia v Paris SG
Celtic v Juventus

WED 13 FEB 2013
Real Madrid v Man Utd
Shakhtar Donetsk v Borussia Dortmund

TUE 19 FEB 2013
Arsenal v Bayern Munich
FC Porto v Malaga

WED 20 FEB 2013
AC Milan v Barcelona
Galatasaray v Schalke 04

TUE 5 MAR 2013
Borussia Dortmund v Shakhtar Donetsk
Man Utd v Real Madrid

WED 6 MAR 2013
Juventus v Celtic
Paris SG v Valencia

TUES 12 MAR 2013
Barcelona v AC Milan
Schalke 04 v Galatasaray

WED 13 MAR 2013
Bayern Munich v Arsenal
Malaga v FC Porto

U'sual Prediction League rules apply, 3pts for spot-on, 1pt for outcome and tie-breaks determined by number of spot-ons and then first to post. All matches kick-off at 1945, so I leave it to individuals as to whether they want to bang in straight away for all picks (and therefore first to post) or hold fire to wait and see how first-leg matches turn out.


Good luck all.


(P.S. If anyone's interested, I used the RANDBETWEEN(1,4) Excel function to get the groups)

Ever since 2005 (Liverpool), the holder of the (real) European Champions League automatically qualifies for the following year.

So as the current holder of the even more prestigious "9th Happy Champions League" (despite my relegation to Division One), don't I get automatic admission to defend my title?

Evidently not - so having been denied the chance of winning it three times (and hence keeping it) have melted the cup down for scrap!

Soz Noah, but there's no special dispensation for 'Sleeping Giants' in the cut-throat commercial world of the Happy Champions League, more's the pity

Tell you what Noah, so far we only have 6 qualifiers signed up with predictions - if we don't achieve the 8 minimum to go through to the next round, you're first reserve.

Okay, Judge Rules needed Mr Haps and Pete - I am prepared to accept Blue's Celtic v Juve prediction, in the firm belief that he must have hit "post" comfortably before Juve's first goal went in - and had he not chosen to display his nerd-like tendencies by showing appreciation for my Excel nerdness, even earlier.

I am happy that no material advantage has been sought or gained, but I defer to you guys for final ruling.

I'll do an update after tonight's games, but at the moment you're only 1pt behind Thrillseeker and Blue4U2, so all is not lost. At the risk of doing Noah out of his first reserve slot, if you're in contact with Alderney you might want to give him a nudge too...

Thanks for your understanding - to be honest I hadn't noticed the time, just pleased
to have noticed the post at all as I don't usually go online midweek !

Maybe if it hadn't taken three attempts to log on and then my "nerd" comment - my post would have made it on time!
