    I do have suspicions about draws for loads of competitions though. The Euro 2012 one had someone post the exact draw on Twitter like an hour before it happened - with old rivalries like Holland-Germany and England-France. There's always a hint of a fix in every draw. Having corrupt morons in charge of FIFA and UEFA doesn't help stop those suspicions.

    Do they not do the next stage at this draw, or am I thinking of the Qtrs >>> Semis??

    Anyway. For Clarity's sake.

    Ars/Mil v Barca or Real
    Chelsea v Barca or Real

    I'll be back to quote this after the next draw

    And lots of people tweeting different draws, no doubt, and all those tweets forgotten...
    Someone wins the lottery most weeks. It's not a fix it's just there are a lot of tickets out there and if you know anything about probabilities you'll know the chances of someone winning are quite high. The chances of it being you are very low.
