The lack of club or association trained players in the squad meant there was always going to be compromises. There absolutely was.

If there is an increased level of hostility tomorrow night then I would hope that our players, for once under new management, might respond positively to the atmosphere. Sadly I do not see us being able to batter anyone at the moment, but I would certainly take a draw and look to go all out at an equally if not more hostile and intense Ibrox in the return, to get the win that would go a long way towards qualification.

As usual in these situations it is the travelling Bears who will be affected the most by any animosity felt towards the Club by the locals. However, given that there will probably be around 3000 odd making the journey they should be ok as long as they find somewhere to gather, wandering off in two or three person groups might not be a good idea if things do turn out to be as unwelcoming as some are predicting. Stay safe and bring home a result Bears. SeparateEntityMyArse 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 14 hours ago, SPWF said: We’ve became hated because one of our players was racially abused What a fucking midden of a country. My youngest sister lives there as her other half has a really good construction job in eastern europe and their base is Prague. Got racially abused as a local told her to go back to her own country, not realising that my sister, like me, is Scottish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakes Pal 5,646 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Looking forward to this in a way that I would not have dreamed possible a couple of weeks ago, difficult as it is we should try and remember that this team beat Betis, and put the events of two weeks ago down to the collapse that finally saw off Beale. Hopefully with some organisation and a wee bit more confidence in the squad, we stand a good chance of getting the away point most of us seem to be thinking is the best we can look for against a team who are in very good form at the moment. You would imagine that Betis will win their double header, it will be between us and Sparta, so the next two games are basically it as far as Europa League 23/24 is concerned.

It was created to stop big clubs having an advantage by hoarding so many first team players and so many youth players signed from other clubs while promoting players from your own youth setup and players from your own country.
