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.

Purely out of selfishness if we get Italian team then we better be in conference as I have been to Rome and Bergamo but never been to Florence.

Being linked with Ciaron Brown a left back/centre half from Oxford United and Timotej Jambor a striker from MSK Zilina overnight. Oxford saying they have turned down our bid for Brown but it seems we have at least moved on from Scales. Being linked with another striker seems odd unless someone is leaving.

Rocco Vata is attacking midfielder who mostly played for Celtic B team last season. No idea if he is any good but would be some step up from lowland league to Premier.

Have to disagree on Morris. Most decent wing backs can get a cross beyond the first man more than once a game. He can’t. He is fast but that’s it. We need better than him.

Ticket has gone.

No problem.

Face value as it’s not you. £18 We will be in Springkerse View pub before the game.

Would expect a couple of changes tonight with maybe Sokler and Dadia getting a run maybe even Besuijen. As long as we approach this in a professional manner we should get through. In Lift through Away stand Lift back to Capital. 3-0 Sokler, Clarkson and Duk Spare ticket for tonight if anyone is looking for one.

Going to against grain here and say I would not be rushing to offer Polvara a new deal. Definitely looks better than he did when he first arrived but that’s a low bar to set.

Another McKenzie. Alfie Stewart, Bavidge and Marshall with Dons goals in 5-3 defeat. Williams was booked in second half according to Peterhead match report.

Only alarming thing is that they are not much further behind.

Once got the hotel in San Francisco to open the bar at 4am so I watch a Dons v Celtic early kick off on the big screen. Ended up watching it with the cleaners and night porter who were all of Central American decent so all into football. As it was Celtic we got gubbed as usual and they all thought I mad to have got up to watch it knowing we would get beat.

Thought we played as well as we could today but never really looked like winning the game. Always felt like Celtic had another gear to go through where as for most of our players today was as good as it gets. Was better than I feared it would be but really still the same end result.

Todays preliminary round results.
