0-2 defeat and an anti-climax. The big game is on Sunday against Stenhousemuir.

A number of folk I know have already booked flights to Basel for the Freiburg game. I’m not ballsy enough for that. I’m hanging off until Thursday night. I think It’d have to be a flight to Zurich as well as the Basel ones seem to be sold out already

I wasn't in Helsinki unfortunately and so can't pass an informed opinion on HJK. However I'd rate our chances at 50/50. Will we tire late on? Will we be toothless up front? However, HJK know that we're level and they have to go for a win and so might not to try to close us down as much as Falkirk did. In short, all to play for.

Its hard to say, but more folk will now have returned from holiday; so that could be a factor.

Really hoping this isnt one of those times when football jumps up and bites you on the arse and gives you a reality check. (Hoping that was Sunday). They looked decent over there but nothing more. Once we had the measure of them second half and grew into the game we looked the better team. Their away record in Europe is much less impressive than their home record and we will have home advantage on a nice grass pitch. Hopefully no new injuries and we can go in with whatever our best 11 is right now. Feels like we should have too much for them, but that just brings me back to the point I made right at the start!

Possibly less kids as the schools will be back . I know my two granddaughters and their mum wont be there so that's 3 less from HB match.

Ticket sales look slower than the HB game, I’m sure at this point before HB they were starting to offer the south stand. hopefully it’ll pick up today.

Auld Broonie loved some fisticuffs.

Whyte certainly has the local knowledge. I'm hopeful our new striker and midfielder will play a part too. (not ITK, just speculating!)

I'd look to bring in Whyte or Booth, maybe Connolly too. Need to use our squad, threadbare though it is.

If we have to play Freiburg, I’m not too fussed if we get beat here. Would want full team with no injuries, available for 1st leg at Fir Park. If we get put out by HJK, I’d really like to see us hammer Stenny. He’s

Jack McConnell, 18 year-old from Wishaw.

If we qualify against helsinki I would expect a few changes as we need to keep big guns fit and rested

Are you all right pal? Plenty of time for a response to this at least the thread is here 😇 COYW

It’s the youth GK

Sadly I have to agree. I've seen nothing to convince me he's got what it takes at our level. Against HB he looked lightweight and the game passed him by. There will now be other young lads knocking on the door.

Woahhhhhhh woahhhhhhhh calm doon. Let's get Thursday sorted first 🤣🤣

Probably keep him, he has lost form badly, falling over with his hands in the air too often just get on with it . Give him that he really shouldn't be up front in the middle himself tho.

From one cup game to another I think this game will be a tough one but I believe we will win this Injures are the only main worry. COYW

Anyone think we are likely to keep Maswanhise this season as interest appears to have tailed off.

How are ticket sales going for this game? We’ll need the crowd roaring the team on to see us thru the 90 minutes I think. Hopefully we can actually score some goals to put us in a better position for the last 15 minutes or so. Any word on Williams being available?

2-1 down from the 1st leg, they scored to make it 3-1 on agg then Jamie Murphy missed a pen to make it 3-2. If we had scored it we would have had nearly 20 mins i think to get two goals against 9 men. A big oportunity missed that night. The best thing that night was the sight of old Craig Brown trying to land a punch on the Odense managers chin after an srgument 😂

I’ve been thinking of Odense where we hammered them and got beat 0-1 they ended up with 9 men I think. Did we hit the post with penalty?
