St Mirren continue to extend their scouting network far and wide Declan Gallagher to St Mirren?

I believe there are fairly regular trains from Dublin to Sligo. Takes around 3 hours.

Looks like things are staying as they are, and we will be at home first https://twitter.com/Alan_Burrows/status/1537494626805985285

Presumably just via that link you posted. I'm guessing the draw will appear there

I'd been wondering about that too, and more specifically if the streaming of games will continue to be made available to UK fans. You'd think it would be a nice little earner for the clubs.

I could be wrong, but last time did they not announce the groups a couple of hours or so before the actual draw?

Jamie Murphy playing for Mansfield in the League Two play off final at Wembley. I didn't realise it, but he is on loan from Hibs. Not looking good for Mansfield though. 2-0 down and with a man sent off after 35 mins.

I don't think being seeded makes any difference. Home/away is only decided when the actual draw takes place.

I don't see how it would be any different to playing in the League Cup group stage. Aren't those games round about the same time?

Might as well get the thread started! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022–23_UEFA_Europa_Conference_League 5th place = 2nd qualifying round (draw June 15, games July 21/28) 4th place = 3rd qualifying round (draw July 18, games Aug 4/11)

It seems that Flow has been tweeting about the incident at the end of the woman's game https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61141240

I would gladly take that programme from you if you are really sure you want to give it away. I've tried to send you a message, but it says you aren't allowed to receive them.

https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/keith-lasley-set-motherwell-exit-26708191 Keith Lasley set for Motherwell exit as Fir Park icon closes in on St Mirren chief executive role Lasley is set to end a 15-year association with the Steelmen after being lined up to be Tony Fitzpatrick's replacement. Motherwell stalwart Keith Lasley will quit Fir Park to replace Tony Fitzpatrick as St Mirren’s new chief executive. Record Sport understands a compensation package has been agreed between the clubs, with Lasley set to take the reins in Paisley at the end of this campaign. The 42-year-old has spent the last 15 years as a player and coach in Lanarkshire but is now set to link up with former Motherwell boss Stephen Robinson after being head hunted by Saints’ board. An announcement is expected before the end of this week but a source close to the deal told us: “Keith is excited at the vision St Mirren’s board have laid out for the club and wants to play a part in those plans.” Lasley played for Motherwell from 1999 to 2004, leaving to spend just two years at Plymouth Argyle before returning in 2006. He retired from playing in 2017 to immediately step into the role as Robinson's assistant, and stepped up as interim boss when Robinson resigned in December 2020. Graham Alexander was happy to keep him on and Lasley penned a new one year deal last summer to bring him in line with the boss and fellow assistant Chris Lucketti. But with that deal close to expiring he finally appears set to move on.
