3-4 Spain now. Fantastic move and finish.

3-3 after VAR gave France a penalty equaliser in 90th minute. Just going into extra time. Game is on BBC iPlayer if anyone want to catch last 30 minutes.

Great Olympic final between France and Spain. Spain currently 3-2 up with 10 minutes to play.

Callum McGregor retires from International football. Opens up space for Ferguson once fit.

Nah that’s a waking up after a 3 day bender in Prague when it was a 20p a pint type Tat.

City Group own 12 clubs world wide. As well as the ones listed the own clubs in Belgium Italy, India, Japan, Brazil, Uruguay and China. Have to question how they get round the club ownership rules.

Would think they will have to as they will be shattered as they spent 90 minutes chasing the ball tonight. Brann were better team by miles but just didn’t convert their dominance into goals.

Killie game finished 2-2. Tromso looked the better team in bits I saw and would have them as favourites to progress.

Killie equalise in injury time.

Tromso 2-1 up on Killie now.

1-1 in Killie game now. St Mirren game still 0-0 but Brann in total control.

Killie 1-0 up on Tromso at half time.

Money. Getting rid of the reserve league was seen as a way of reducing squad sizes to allow clubs to save cash. As Wee Toon says now with teams having up to 16 players possibly playing in games I cannot see it teams being able to finance big enough squads to bring it back. Personally I think getting rid of the reserve leagues was a mistake at the time.

St Mirren will be strongest team we will have faced so far. They easily beat Hibs after playing last mid week and although Bergen are a step up in quality they are at home and no travelling to contend with. Can’t see Thelin changing starting XI from Monday if everyone is fit. Issue is what we do if we need to make subs as from Monday’s showing Gueye and Ambrose are not ready at the moment for first team football. If Miovski is gone before this game we will struggle. oot flat stream flat 0-1 no dons scorer.

Evening Express linking us with a loan move for 19 year old Chelsea midfielder Leo Castledine. As I said before woukd rather give game time to one of our own players than than develop a player for somebody else.

I must admit I was surprised Boyd wasn’t on the bench on Monday. Gives us something different. Maybe Thelin didn’t want to risk him against Levein’s hammer throwers.

Also signed Nicky Cadden from Barnsley on a three year deal.

Draw for the first two preliminary rounds have been made. Bo’ness Athletic v Beith and Culter v Invergordon ties are this weekend.

1-0 down at half time. Actually looked okay until goal.

Should have said an acceptable bid although interestingly the only source for the Espanyol is the article in Daily Heil. Only article I could find from a Spanish source also mentioned that the story came from the British press.

Alfie Stewart and Alfie Bavidge now given squad numbers.

Subs highlight the complete lack of quality in the squad outside of first 11. We lost control of the game as soon as they came on. Move for second goal was brilliant. Agree Morris was slightly better in second half but overall he does need replaced as we are unlikely to face a team as poor as that every week and he was poor in the first half which would have been exploited by a better team. Was impressed with Nilsen, McGrath and Shinnie in midfield although he probably needed taken off once he ran out of steam but there was nobody on bench to replace him.

Happy enough with that half. Miovski is a fantastic player. Cannot believe we have not had a bid for him yet.

Bit disappointed we have not brought in any wide players for the start of league campaign. I would think we will go with back 4 of Mackenzie, Molly Rubi and Devlin. Midfield I would go with Shinnie and Nilsen in the middle with Boyd in front of them and a front three of McGrath, Miovski and Sokler. Why Sky took this is beyond me as these games are usually fucking brutal watches and not expecting this to be any different with Levein in charge. Oot Work TV Flat 1-0 Miovski
