Prague Buddie

I didn't see the draw. Were we actually seeded in the end?????? If yes, how did we manage to get Livingston? ETA...... Just noticed Livi finished 2nd in their group. Therefore unseeded. Oh well!!!

See above.......they changed it

BBC have just updated their page............................ And the late goal ensured Jim Goodwin's side will be seeded in the draw. Scotland's European football representatives - Aberdeen, Celtic, Hibernian, Rangers and St Johnstone - enter in the second round and are seeded along with the three best group winners. Dundee, Dundee United and St Mirren all sit on maximum points from the group stage, but Dundee have the best goal difference and St Mirren have scored more away goals than United.

I think they are wrong. I was surprised with the commentators not thinking about Hearts. Just found this on the BBC aswell. The draw follows the match at Tynecastle and Robbie Neilson's side could beat St Mirren to one of the seeded slots if they defeat Billy Dodds' side. Scotland's European football representatives - Aberdeen, Celtic, Hibernian, Rangers and St Johnstone - enter in the second round and are seeded along with the three best group winners. Dundee, Dundee United and St Mirren all sit on maximum points from the group stage, but the two Dundee sides have a better goal difference than the Buddies. A win by two goals or more for Hearts would take them on to 12 points and with a better goal difference than St Mirren.

I don't think being seeded is guaranteed yet. If Hearts win 2-0 they will jump above us as seeds.

I think it has been quite an even game so far. Thistle must be feeling a bit hard done by. Soft penalty! I will take it all season long though!!!!!!

You've lost me Buddie😀. What is wrong with the bit you highlighted? Both parts say that I think we'll win. ETA..... A year ago I think we would have lost this match

I have to disagree. The 1st game can't be taken into account because they were decimated. The 2nd game they did outplay us. But I believe that they have gone backwards since then, whereas we have vastly improved. I honestly think we are the better of the two teams now. Our thoughts will be answered on Monday.

Raring to go for Monday. I will be watching with 12 or so Czech pals/colleagues, who are all well informed by me that we are going to do them. I'll probably have to lay-low for a while if we lose. The Czechs have a bit of a ropey defence just now, which they seem to be blaming on the Kudela ban. Strange considering he is a 34yo with 9 caps. As far as their top players are concerned, that would be Soucek and Coufal from West Ham Kral from S. Moscow, Schick from Leverkusen, Darida from Hertha Berlin. Not bad level of player, but when you compare them to our top guys (McTominay, Tierney, Robertson, Adams, Gilmour, McGinn) , I d say ours are better players, definitely playing for bigger clubs. There is no doubt the Czechs are a tidy team, but I really think we'll win this.

Should be off

Quaner

What a strike!!!!

You mean like Steven Thompson? The only reason we signed Thommo was because he was desperate to play for us, being a boyhood Buddie. Otherwise we would never have got him.

You mean like Steven Thompson? You calling Thommo a knob?
