It's probably been mentioned earlier in this thread but I wasn't aware that Hibs played Odense in the 2006 Interdiddy cup. No idea how much Odense have improved since then but my Hibs mate says there wasn't much between the teams. Hibs went out on away goals.

I'm glad I'm no the only eejit

Halsman scored in a 3-1 victory today over East Stirling to open the league campaign with 3 points.

Given our constraints, getting us to this stage of Europe has been a tremendous achievement by Brown, Knox, Young and the players. I'd like to think they will be rewarded with a couple of signings. While the Odense match will not be the money spinner Boyle may have been looking for the financial incentive on offer to beat this mob is greater than anything we have ever played for. Time for Dempster and Boyle to pull the strings.

So we don't get divided into pots tonight I take it?

You'll get a ticket for the South Stand.

Nah, now wheesht. Lets focus on the job in hand.

I'm no scared to have a dig at the club but the ticket office has improved dramatically in recent years. Tweed pretty much hit the nail on the head.

It's the apparent backtracking that concerns me. I'm pretty sure Brown was given his budget at the end of May but the goalposts appears to have moved since then on a number of occassions.

While far from priority, a box to box midfielder would be nice. Could do with a bit of creativity and goal threat from the role Lasley is currently playing in.

For the majority of the season, I expect Humphrey to be an impact player, coming on with 20-30 minutes to go and causing havoc with his pace. At some point I'd like to think he will have a purple patch like most wingers and CB will have no option but to give him a starting berth for a few weeks. If he continues to work hard, he has the potential to be an Ivan Sproule type player. Like Sproule however, I doubt he will ever offer a degree of consistency.

Wee buzz about the place when I went for tickets just before lunchtime. Queue must have been about 20 deep and there was a steady stream of fans continuing to turn up when I departed.

Fitzpatrick looking good then?

International week before the SPL kicks off then the playoff round takes place the following 2 Thursdays. Draw next Friday.

Just looking at the starting lineup from that Hibs game, there wasn't much dig about the midfield was there. Attack, attack, attack.

I don't think it could get much bigger than taking 5k+ 'Well fans to Anfield.

Woods will never be forgiven for that. Didn't want to go to School for a week after that.

Deligthed for Murphy. Looked a class act when he first came into the team and has showed signs of brilliance since for Motherwell & Scotland under 21s. Such a composed finisher. Fingers crossed he can have a really good season and show that he is one of Scotland's finest talents.

It's going to be a tense affair next week. Delighted with the away goal but that injury time pen is going to give them a massive boost. If we happen to lose a goal at FP when the game is in the balance then it is advantage to the Norwegians. Hopefully though we are capable of dealing with the pressue and have a right good go at them. I still have no idea how good they are. Will be interesting to hear the thoughts of those who travelled. Hopefully Sutton & Forbes are ok.

Never a pen.

Get in.

This is fucking shite being stuck at work. 'Mon the 'Well.

Seems to be the case. Bit of a scunner as I'll be driving home from work for the duration of the 1st half. Listening to the post-match coverage last thursday, it seemed pretty certain that BBC Scotland would be sending out a commentary team.

Would love Hartley at FP if he wasn't breaking the bank. He could do a job in the SPL for anyone, Rangers included.
