REACTION: Everton Draw BSC Young Boys

Are we underestimating these Young Boys? Reading some of the texts and comments on BBC, lots of people claiming stuff like '4 really tough draws for the British sides' and 'Britain will be lucky to have any representation on the next round' etc.

Based on the name alone, you wouldn't rank them that highly, but are they going to be tough to beat?

The BBC always writes how the British teams 'have a tough draw' after every European draw. It's as regular as clockwork.

Young Boys won't be easy, but it's a tons better draw than others have got.
 
Won all three of their home games in the group without conceding a goal.

Beat Napoli 2-0, Sparta Prague 2-0 and Sloven Bratislava 5-0. It'll be tough, but we're by far the best team they'll have played.
Fair play to them beating Napoli, but by all accounts Bratislava were gash, and Prague not what they used to be. Well neither of them were what they used to be, Czechoslovakians like...
 

Exploring all sorts of avenues to get there. Them flights from Southend are a joke, you're already half way there if you fly from there! Looking at Manchester to Zurich for £172 and train in for the game.
 
I live over here. Best ways to get to (northern) Switzerland are Swiss flights from Manchester to Zurich, or EasyJet from Manchester to Basel. There's nothing to Zurich from Liverpool, although you can fly to Geneva from Liverpool with EasyJet, which I guess will be a popular route. Bern is smack bang in the middle of the country, so you're an hour away from Basel and Zurich on the train, a bit longer from Geneva.
If anyone has any logistical questions, just shout.
Cheers mate. What's the best way to move 6 live zebras from Nairobi to Tokyo?

How frequent are the trains from basel to bern, direct? Also r there likely to be ant returning to basel after game?
 
Not a bad draw, BSC Young Boys;
for those who didnt know, all seeded teams were drawn away first, so that they get the advantage of the away game first.

Only thing I dont like is that they have an artificial pitch, would be happy with a 0-0 first leg, confident we can do them a Goodison.
