How was Munich? Big. How was the beer festival? Massive. How were the lasses? Ah, giz a bag of crisps....

Taken from a 1970's add for McEwan's Best Scotch. Now 25 years on we finally get to play a German team in Europe.

Only four days after dispatching the minnows from Belgium, Lokeren, we get to play in the grand surroundings of the 60,000 Olympic Stadium in Munich.

Such are the vagaries of the Intertoto.

To draw any meaningful conclusions from our 5-0 aggregate victory in Round Three would be dangerous but a job well done in Belgium ensured a comfortable leg-stretcher in front of 29,021 fans.

The crowd was a record for any game in the competition and Bobby and the boys seemed genuinely appreciative.

Shame then, the board score another own goal by rewarding us with a price rise for the semi home leg. Is the extra £3 really going to help get Zenden & Co.?
