Their keeper made two very good saves in the 2nd half. Lammers missed an absolute sitter in the 1st half from about 3 yards!!

A lot of panty wetting again on here. Nobody can argue it was a vastly improved performance tonight to what we have been seeing!. Onwards and upwards.

We won 2-1 at home against a low-key Swiss side who were down to ten men. I don't think it can be dressed up as a satisfactory result.

Low key? what are we then?.

It is a satisfactory result for me, although it should have been more.

I know we're supposed to be in love with him like but Danilo hasn't impressed.

 

Just don't come out and sit in, go and be proactive. This team don't care if they're losing by 1 or 2, they won't change.

I didn't think he was match fit tbh.

Literally Europa league finalists 2 seasons ago.

To be honest it's the games like Hearts away last season that makes me back the manager rather than performances like this, with better (hopefully) players I think he can do something.

 

Hopefully we can build on this.

You could say that was as easy a 2-1 win as you'll see. Servette did not really threaten us and I can't see them being much better on Tuesday. I saw some positives tonight, so we are going in the right direction. I think if we can string a few wins together and confidence grows, we may be good enough to do something in the Europa League at least.

Ah! that is a different team you are talking about!!.

Anyway, I'm off to bed now. Onto Saturday.

I'm not sure what people were expecting, after watching pre-season and the Killie game.

 

We were a bit unlucky tonight and with another match under our belts, by the time we arrive in the birthplace of Presbyterianism, we can beat the Swiss over there.
