Would love United to get the tough group but we all know they will be given an easy passage. Happens every year.

There was someone on the old Echo forums once who predicted the group stages exactly a day before it happened, and said it was due to fixing. After the draw was made, his account disappeared.

I was reading the betfair forum the morning somebody posted about the UEFA cup game between Panionios and Dinamo Tbilisi would finish 5-2 to the home team with the away side leading at half time.

An investigation found no suspicions of match fixing despite it happening exactly as predicted 9 hours previous and 2 goals in stoppage!

Matches are fixed so I see no reason why draws would not be.
