So what do people know about FC Salzburg?

I know they are top of the league and unbeaten so far !!

[Oakland]

Salzburg away...not bad!

[modes98]

ooo interesting, never been to austria. Just got to convince everyone else to go.

Not the best draw ever but at least we are at home for the second leg!

Bring on the 14th

[Welshrover1981]

Not bad draw. Lets get us some wins from now to then so we are ready for the ties.

[Daje]

You forgot to mention Celtic!!

No I didn't mention them as nooone saw Celtic as an easy match, as many did with the clubs I mentioned.

How can we get there? what is it near to in Austria?

Need to book flights!

[only2garners]

I checked some flight prices to Salzburg about an hour ago: -

Cheapest thomsonfly from Coventry £121

Ryanair from Stansted £204!

Swiss from Manchester £159 (with a change)

Sky Europe from Manchester £169

All were for going on 14th and back on 15th.

Should also be practical to fly to Munich and get a train. I've only checked BA for this and it was £300+

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

NO PUSHOVERS!

[G Somerset Rover]

When do group stages start should we get through?

[trs]

how many does their ground hold?

[Finch]

Are there any more teams to be drawn? (not got wireless or telly on)

[Eddie]

Shoot. Tough team and quite expensive.

[bubblerrovers]

Only good thing is we have away leg first, they are a very good team if we play how we have recently we'll go out

[only2garners]

Another option if you've got the time is the train. More exotic and no cheaper than current flight prices but whilst the flights will get more expensive the train probably won't. http://www.seat61.com/Austria.htm#Salzburg

how many does their ground hold?

Apparently they're managed by Lothar Matthäus...

So what do people know about FC Salzburg?

They're actually known as "Red Bull Salzburg" and claim to be a "new club with no history". As you might imagine, this mindset has split their fanbase considerably -

Coached by Giovanni Trappatoni!

Tricky tie indeed!
