Not saying HJK are easy or that we will beat them but I don’t think we should be afraid of them. Had a look at Finnish league and I don’t really know any of the teams. I see Aberdeen drew their two games with them a few years ago. In the conference league they have played 28 games, lost 15, drawn 6 and won 7

He was also left alone to deal with Hibs player in his face, obstructing him, prior to corner kicks. So good to acknowledge some things he can do better but his performance overall was excellent with a few really good saves.

If you want some “glory” nights you got to play the good teams.

I really hope we don’t loose any more players this window

It’s a joy watching that goal back a few times. As the commentators mentioned. several times, “Magnificent Football”!

Scotland is 2 hours behind Helsinki

Considering where we are in preparation for this season, getting 3 points today is a tremendous job.

Similar to last season, trying to maintain possession but a bit more willing to play longer ball now and again. I think we had a good balance between long balls and keeping possession. we should be looking forward to another season of being entertained by MFC. our second goal Was superb.

I’m exhausted after watching that. Best game of the weekend.

Well that was much better than I was anticipating. First half we strolled it. Second half we were fine till we made that mistake amd Hibs got fired up after that. We were under the cosh as we tired drastically but what character to pull out a secomd goal that was superb football. Then hang in there with some grit and determination. Well done Alfred amd the team.

Are you talking about lethal Said?

SAID

We are tiring rapidly

We weren’t even pressured into that. Basic error.

Maybe take Vogts off, push Said wide right and JT thru the middle?

Pretty toothless up front but continuing on from last season with our composure on the ball. I’d expect Hibs to put a lot more energy into the game secomd half and pressure us a lot more. With a couple or so more to come in the door I think we should do fine this season.

Always disappointed if we get beat but the main thing for me will be to see how we play. hoping our team will be stronger and better by the close of the window. From what I’ve seen this weekend and making snap under-informed judgements I think we should be good enough to finish above the following St Mirren, Falkirk, Killie, St Johnstone, Dundee im assuming the ugly sisters will perform better than last season but maybe not? That leaves us battling with Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen, Dundee Utd for places 3 thru 7 Today will give us an idea how we compare, keeping in mind that I’d expect us to improve with signings and for our general play to improve as season goes on today 2-2

Game on Paramount over here. St J game on just now

I’m hoping we can keep the ball for long periods of time and convert any chances we create.

I think that’s what we should do at kick off. Give it to Said and let him dribble it for goal.

Hearts just Hibs’d it by looks of it.

I think I’m already hearing Boos from the pittodrie crowd

World Cup had more than it’s fair share

Apparently our officials juat can’t grasp the whole VAR thing. I thought it hit his arm but couldn’t be 100% sure so goal should have stood. Likewise if ref had called handball on the field then that call should also have stood. do not overturn referee calls on the field unless you can 100% show that he was wrong.

I’m also watching it and agree with your assessment of the game. shouldnt be afraid of either of these teams
