Under normal circumstances, you would expect Celtic to rest players in a home League Cup tie against Falkirk ahead of a European game, but building fitness and synergy remains a top priority this early in the season.
If we consider the positivity which enveloped Benjamin Nygren following his goal at Aberdeen on Sunday, going full blast on Falkirk might give some of the forwards a confidence boost before things turn serious next week.
Hibs and Dundee United are a long way off league stage European football, but they can both fancy their chances in the third qualification round tonight. Even Hibs cannot surely ‘Hibs it’ after winning 0-2 in Belgrade last week. United were excellent in their draw with Rapid but there is still a lot to do in that tie.
This season we have at least three from five clubs in ‘league stage’ competition. If United and Hibs don’t make it, points gathered by those three are divided by five. Getting a fourth or fifth side can make all the difference to our coefficient points.

Have UEFA charged themselves yet for last night’s banner ?
An Dun….
UEFA have lost any right, moral or otherwise, to judge anyone else in relation to Gaza or anything else.
Weeron.
Brendan more upbeat on signing prospects and Daizen extension in the BBC interview there.
As an aside – best luck to Hibs and Arabs tonight.
In recent times our teams have chucked it after a decent away performance – I really hope that’s not the case tonight.
Log-in pash starting up again.

Simple question really.
There is no doubt at all, BR is a top manager. Why does the club not give him a new contract ?
Cannot figure that out

A student opening their results live on the BBC: “On that note, I want to say Free Palestine, end the genocide and the BBC is complicit…”
The BBC reporter quickly interjected and said “we’re here to talk about A-Level results… Gaza is a whole different subject…”

Not yet. But they are working on it….
Weeron
They’ve been ‘Hibsing’ it in front of goal: 2 gilt edge chances not taken.
And now they’ve given up another. 2-2
But yes. Now they are Hibsing it. At least their keeper is…
Weeron.
Dearie me.
Goalie was pysh on both goals….
Keeper should have had both
classic management learning opportunity –
employee. given what jat happened what would you do ?
Hibs must sub GK now
Dundee Utd under the cosh now….
Lincoln Red Imps through to Europa League play-off after penalty shootout. Guarantees them at least Conference League entry.
Hibs started well but they didn’t respond well to the first goalkeeping blunder so god knows how they’ll respond to the second even worse blunder . Huge task for Gray at HT but can’t see anything other than Partizan going on to win .
Ach well mibbe DU can give a wee hand to the coefficient .
Thank you for your warm wishes re me maw. I swear she’s trying to “speed run” recovery from serious surgery….she was up n mobile yesterday, drains n catheters removed today…released tomoz…only missing 1/3 of a lung and a couple of lymph nodes…crazy
