Not sure folk aren’t kidding themselves about us being any better off in the conference league. We were defensively poor last night and I am more and more convinced we have signed players who cannot play in a 3-5-2. As Kowalski said we have not played well this season which may improve with time for new players to settle but I am far from convinced.

Initially I was going to say 3 cities I have not been too but having read Rico’s in-depth analysis of his selection I will just go with them and expect to qualify.

New striker confirmed. Hoping this doesn’t mean someone is leaving.

Anderson from Newcastle called up is interesting as I vaguely remember reading he has turned us down in the past. Also looks like Clarke’s views on not picking players not playing in Europe do not extend to the sportswashing league in Saudi.

That was a brutal watch. Far too much reliance in the long ball again. Was clear it was never working from very early on. Hayes struggled again today. McGarry and Jensen need to be decent. Rubi was poor again. Beginning to worry he might not be up to playing at the pace of our league. Hopefully he will get used to it with more game time. Daylight robbery we got a point. Need to be a lot better than this on Thursday.

Polvara must have something on Robson to still be getting a start.

Probably to nobody’s surprise other than his own Lee Johnston emptied by Hibs.

Agree with Rico and Orlando on this. I honestly don’t think VAR has done anything to improve the game especially for those attending matches. Handball rule is an abomination that could only have only been invented by someone who has never played the game.

Apologies for the rotten title but it’s was a rush job to get a thread going as Manc is an idle cunt and Big Al is slumped in the corner of some Greek Taverna looking like a sunburnt Father Jack.

Back to league duty on Sunday. We really need to start getting wins on the board in league but this will be a difficult trip as St Mirren have started league season well. Would like to see Subs who came on last night start on Sunday to get minutes into their legs before next Thursday. Would also expect Jensen to start instead of McKenzie for same reason. Not sure I would change any of the forwards but we might see Sokler start for Duk. Away end is sold out for this one so hopefully a decent atmosphere. In Train then pub Away end Train back to Capital 2-1 Miovski and McGrath (bound to score against his old club as it happens to us all the time)

If the team that finished the game, except Sokler, had started it I think we win that comfortably tonight. Pretty confident we should put them away at home. Only concern is Miovski’s performance tonight may attract some bids before the window closes. As has been said he was outstanding tonight.

Jensen on the bench along with McGrath.

Same team as Stirling

Not sure I would be chucking in a player who has never met his team mates never mind trained with them for a game as big as this.

Jensen signed.

FTFY

Into injury time in first of tonight’s games and it’s been pish. Torino 0-0 Cagliari.

Squad been confirmed for Europe for players over 21. There is a B list for U21 players who count as home grown with no limit. I have to say it does not look a strong squad at all. Can add another two emergency signings until 11pm on Wednesday.

Atletico currently drawing 0-0 away to Betis and Barca struggling to beat Cadiz at their temporary home at the Olympic stadium. Only Real have 6 points after first two games. Think they will run away with league this season.

I see Ramadani started for Lecce in their 2-1 win over Lazio.

Don’t worry if we get there I will send you regular updates.

Full quarter final draw.

I saw the joke but decided it was so bad to just ignore it and post his promo video instead.
