I would definitely want to avoid the North Macedonia outfit
Home draw or Faroe Islands please. Want to avoid all eastern European teams at this stage.

Crusaders or HB Torshavn (Faroe Islands) give us the best chance of advancing. Any of the other 3 would probably be too difficult a task. Not to mention the travel to North Macedonia. Riga again, isn't exciting. Tallinn would at least provide a decent trip

I've a feeling we'll end up with either Crusaders or Shkendija, both of which offer an interesting contrast in locations.

Which would you prefer - a trip to a lawless, impoverished and politically unstable region with a reputation for organised crime and gangs? Or a visit to North Macedonia.

That's a decent draw. 2nd leg at Brandywell. Gives us a chance.

B36 Torshavn has been drawn at home as well in the conference league so something will change, probably one at home on Wednesday one on Thursday, can see teams agreeing to switch home and away ties

If you're arriving on the Thursday, you might be pushed for time to make KO. Had looked at that route myself.

Alternative could be Dublin - Copenhagen - Faroe Islands

KuPS Kuopio (Finland) in the second round, should we qualify. Ties likely to take place 27th July and 3rd August.
