4pm Kick Off for the match against Red Imps.

No doubt the fans in attendance will have been hand picked.

Barisic is one of the best players at the club and a regular in the Croatian side. I'd be hoping for more than £15m for him, particularly from an EPL club.

Middleton had a bit more of an end product, from what I saw of him. He scored when chances came.

Expectations and reality often differ, particularly in football. I really hope we don't sell Barisic anytime soon but if I was a footballer, I'd be looking to maximise my income at every opportunity.

Leeds will have a budget and when you try to buy a player, you start with low bids. Once a player's head is turned, that's half the battle. Leeds Utd now play in a league watched by people all over the world. Borna Barisic plays in a league no one outside Scotland cares about.

Alternatively, you could phone the Police.

The money made last season, excluding gate receipts, was over £10m. That isn't to be sniffed at, considering we're running at a loss.

The Rangers fixtures have already been discussed at length.

The dates were listed on the first page of this thread.

I don't know how anyone can eat in the Dennistoun curry house if those fat gargoyles frequent it.

Expect the worst and you're less likely to be disappointed. ?

I was at the Marseille 2-2 game. Under Smith we had two unbelievable Euro runs (92/93 and 07/08) but we also had some total embarrassments.

They have a nice strip at least (red, white and blue stripes).

Under Gerrard, we've been really good in Europe but the one-leg, no crowd situation might alter things a bit. Given our history in Europe, I tend to remain pessimistic - AEK Athens, Unirea Thingybob and Kaunas always remain at the back of my mind. There are some decent sides in the next qualifier and matches, particularly if we're drawn away from home, won't be easy.

Not the best draw but not the worst either.

Isn't the draw at midday? I'm assuming the qualifiers will be shown on Premier Sports again?

I had no idea table napkins could play football. Hopefully we get them - easy enough to keep a clean sheet.

So, apparently the three teams we can get in the 2nd round are Lincoln Red Imps (British overseas territory, Gibraltar), Servette (Switzerland) and Borac (Bosnia And Herzegovina).

I have no idea but it gets on my wick. SG's use of subs leaves a lot to be desired too.

Football is totally over-analysed these days. I usually turn it over the minute the final whistle blows. And Charlie Nicholas is a fud.

I listened to the match on the radio. Ah, the days before television ruled football. What a goal!

The Police in Wisconsin and the ones who stopped Dawn Butler clearly haven't been bothered by it. Maybe footballers should start lying down instead.

The save, on the line, from the header was top class!

On another note - how long are footballers going to 'take the knee'?
