Have you been drinking?!!

Your choices are a loyal ex-player, someone looking to repair their reputation or a young up and coming manager.

The old firm ego knows no bounds.
I shall withdraw that comment - I forgot about Steve Clarke.

Half an hour after Chick Young suggested Lennon was Norwich bound and Dick Wilson said Mackay was hot favourite for that job, neither have been appointed Norwich boss.

Think MacKay will be Celtic boss. It looks to me like he has turned down Norwich job to go to Celtic.

Seems Islam Feruz had decided he's not Scottish anymore.

Yet no guarantee they'll get those 6 games if the best players are constantly sold.
The teams that Celtic face come the final qualifying round of the Champions League are no mugs that's for sure.

Much tougher than games they face against St Mirren, Patrick Thistle, Kilmarnock or Ross County in standard top flight league game.

Worked just fine for McGeady and McCarthy - two talented Oirish lads.

Seems like Hibs are close to selling out on Sunday. East and Famous five sold out with the west probably now about 90% full. Hibs are getting half the south stand aswell. Should be a cracking atmosphere.

Good effort from Hibs.

But it'll be a nervy as hell atmosphere if Hamilton get the first goal.

I know it's a big game and fans always turn up in big numbers for those but it's £10/£5 for tickets. I think lower prices and a much better product on pitch and we'd get larger crowds most weeks. £22/£27/£32 is terrible for footy of SPL standard.

Agree Mark, you'll hear a pin drop if Hamilton get first goal. It's almost like Scotland v England play off. Scotland went 1-0 at Wembley and could have won the tie.

What's deal with away goals? I've not heard that they count?

Well at least if away goals didn't count it'd still be 0-0 in the tie and worse we could get is 0-0.

I just hope it doesn't go to penalties.

Any other game if it wasn't involving Hibs I'd say the second leg is an anti-climax and a formality but this is Hibs. Anything is possible. 6-6 at Fir Park still haunts me.

Less than 100 tickets in West stand.

Hopefully Hamilton bring a good crowd.

and the viewing figures which were far higher for rangers in the third tier this year than any top league game prove that we are the only show in town
Would you believe that the The Rangers fan firing out "the only show in town" patter got it completely wrong?

The Rangers don't come in the top 3 watched Scottish league matches this season.

If Hamilton score first tomorrow it will be a big test of Hibs mettle.

West, East and FF sold out, upper tier of away end now opened for us.

Could be close to 18,19000 Hibees alone. Not sure how many Accies will bring.

Was great aswell hearing Clive Tyldsley on ITV mentioning Hibs during the champions league presentation. Just reminding us that Hibs were the first British side to compete in the European cup, also mentioned about our game tomorrow.

Filled me with pride ❤️ love my Hibees

Hibs premiership place hanging by a thread and that said thread is fraying.

Hamilton have had 10 attempts at goal in normal time while Hibs could only manage 3 goal attempts.
