Williams was good, Mikey Booth impressed me again, Fadinger did Fadinger things, and despite his lack of finishing, Said doesnt half get us up the pitch at times. MOTM is easy though. Oscar again by a mile. The boy is class. Different player from Watt but class nonetheless.

Im on the 9am SAS flight on Wednesday from Edinburgh to Helsinki via Stockholm. If anyone is about I will see you in the bar!

HB came out the blocks flying as you would expect with their home record, but we settled quickly and after the first 10 minutes dominated the ball and the game. You can see that the team is still new and finding its feet with a few stray passes giving HB more encouragement than they needed. Paulsen and the 2 centre backs still dont feel 100% comfortable, but that will come. Overall it was a very impressive performance and I think we are miles ahead of where we were this time last season. Loads of room for improvement but with Longelo and Cookie now looking ready, Maswanhise getting minutes off the bench and Lowry now available for selection, things are looking promising. Will be a step up in class next week, but with a wee trip to Easter Road on Sunday, I would expect us to be ready. Just no more injuries please!

I hope so, we have booked flights from Manchester and a hotel in Helsinki Just match tickets to sort now.

I take it then we are away next week?

Hello, I thought l would start a new thread for the next opponents. Is anyone traveling to the game? Im on the 7:30am flight from heathrow on the 5th traveling back on the 7th. Mon the well

To be honest the chanting from support doesn't bother me. Would be more annoyed if flares let off These fans paid a lot of money for this trip so total respect

Age of tonight's goalkeeper, back four, and midfield.. 24 23 22 25 22 23 25 19 Bit of disorganisation in the defence could be put down to them having not played together much but I'm concerned that a slight lack of an experienced organiser either in defence or midfield might also be a factor. Maybe age isn't necessarily a factor, it's leadership. Both games I felt lke there wasn't anyone being particularly vocal. Likes of Watt, Welsh, McGinn and even Slattery were there last season. Maybe it'll come with the likes of Moorman when he settles in but I'm putting the shaky defence down to that lack of am organiser rather than individual abilities....

Hibs have a wee scare on for the last five or so.

The gaffer said

It’s a good chant If ur singing it at ibrox but not against that mob good to get through but think there’s a lot to work on

If "don't be an arse to your inoffensive hosts" is too high a bar, then I suppose so.

Priestman for me this week. Sparrow a close second choice.

If 'so fucking easy' is the worst behaviour from the trip then the fans have done well. All aboard the bible bus 🙏 🚌

Said proving once he again he is not a striker. He's gets in the right places, but doesn't have the finish yet. Oscar for me too.

Got to be oscar,love said,put in a ton of work,finishing woeful.

It has to be Oscar!

I can't say that I heard that, but you're right, it isn't a good look. I know that it's a bit of banter, but our fans should be more respectful of the opposition. That said, let's not take anything away from the display. Given the lack of resources and the upheaval, AJ has done well to get a tune from the team in such a short time. Progress through the rounds is a nice little money earner, and great for the fans. Long may it continue. Of course, the real test will come on Sunday, when we play a team of equal standard.

Priestman again for me, the boy is class.

Hibs were always favourites for me in this Euro tie, even after their loss last week.

Priestman, again.

Professional and drama-free. I don't know who that was, but I approve. Take your pick...

With luck they might have extra time

Job done, nervy early on and RCC soooo frustrating ( until great 2nd goal). Sloppy at times but this is a new team so still gelling I think Williams will be a great signing. Watched in new century with my mate, really busy and good buzz COYW

Not if it goes all the way ET then PKs
