I would be fucking delighted with Scottish Cup winner Kevin Nisbet. We sign him and he's our number one striker, with Lazetic allowed to develop. Bring him home. The year is 2050 and Orlando Don suggests Allan Campbell and Mikey Johnston

Good luck to Shady Mo, but Luton can fuck off - making their move on the eve of a Europa League play-off. I know they're not used to playing in Europe so maybe didn't know it was happening, but was poor form. And their airport is shite.

Looks like Sokler going out on loan rumours could be true. Odd to start him on Thursday then ship him out a few days later (unless he requested it of course). On the other hand, Lazetic in the squad earlier than expected.

I don't think we have a Hibs thread, but these are terrific tears. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/hibs-uefa-conference-league-kasper-schmeichel-celtic-5293288

That bloke we were linked with from Girona has barely touched the ball in the Old Firm game. Only action of note was a dive in the box. Looks like we've dodged a bullet there...

Probably didn't help that my some of the rockets in our support on Twitter and AFC Chat lost the plot when Boyd allegedly liked a Rangers post.

Snelders having a horror show in a 3-3 draw v us kept him in our good books. Let's stop all this Ash Taylor love in over a couple of tweets. He was delighted to get it right up us while at Kilmarnock, and he would have signed for Rangers in a heartbeat if they had come in for him.

Prediction already in that we'll finish bottom. Time to shock Europe again.

Need eight points to reach the knockout stage (although a few on seven last season made it. One team on seven points didn't make it last year - some mob called Hearts). Ten points likely enough to be seeded, while 12 and more could be enough to skip the play-off and go directly into the last 16. It's a tough group of fixtures, but it's very doable, especially if we make Pittodrie hard to visit

Forget the Europa. She never loved us anyway. Draw imorn. We play one team from each pot. Toughest draw: Fiorentina, Crystal Palace, Mainz, AEK Athens, Samsunspor, Hacken. Panda's draw: AZ Alkmaar, Shamrock Rovers, Bialystock, Lincoln Red Imps, Breidablik, Shelbourne (apparently the rules say we can play both Irish sides).

This game sums up where we're at and why, truthfully, FCSB are doing us a bit of a favour here. We've had good moments, were the better team for 35 minutes, and signs are that we're going in the right direction. But we're not clinical, throw away goals too easily, and we're not good enough for the Europa League. As glamorous as it would be, some of the teams in there would have pulled our pants down. That said, 3-0 harsh on us.

He might be, but that's from the uefa website and bizarrely you have to give UEFA your correct formation for the teamsheet. He's not in squad because he's been distracted by a bid late last night. Thelin will have more on BBC Scotland's excellent coverage later, from 19:15 BST.

Jensen on the left will be interesting, but at the moment I like it.

If we have £2.6m to spend, then as good as Miovski is (was) there's no-way I'd want it spent on him. Could sign five players for that.

Club goals in the past 12 months. Bojan Miovski: 2 Ester Sokler: 8 Meh. Let them have him. His best days are in the past, and the future is Sokler.

An excellent post from @OxfordDon the other day on this very topic.

A good Dons man is Liam. One of our own.

Some Mitchel Frame footage

Has only played once for Celtic - oddly a game I was at; a Champions League game v Feyenoord. I knew then he was destined to play for the Dons one day.

Yeah was biting my tongue earlier as it's only just been confirmed. I did football commentary once. Was actually the 2010 Scottish Cup final when Dundee United beat Ross County. I've never been asked to do it again. Turning up hungover without notes and "I'll just wing it" in hindsight maybe wasn't the best idea.

The Rapid Vienna v Dundee United away leg was on the BBC.

FCSB tonight lost 2-0 at home. Have failed to win five of their last eight home games, have conceded at least two goals in seven of their last 10 games, and have only one clean sheet in 15 games this season.

Russell Martin still unbeaten in the Scottish Premiership. Very positive start from him and Rangers, this could be their year.

We absolutely need another striker. At the moment we have three unproven forwards in Yengi, Lazetic and Ambrose, and it's arguably four unproven because if we were signing Sokler with his record and game time, we'd be judging him the same as the other three. I rate Sokler, and have high hopes for Lazetic, but at the moment neither of them you would hang your hat on as our main striker, and Yengi and Ambrose have a lot to do to prove they are even bench warmers. I suspect if Nisbet doesn't sign we might have another lined up, but he's not going to be first choice (from what I've heard, Lazetic wasn't first choice either) and therefore we wouldn't necessarily be signing someone of his ilk.

Kevin Nisbet was an 85th minute sub today for Millwall. I did wonder if we signed Lazetic if that would be it for forwards, but I think we're still keeping an eye on the situation. Would rate our chances 50/50; we'll take him if he's going, but can see Alex Neil wanting to give him until January to prove himself.
