    I don't mind too much if we concede but I do want us to get an away goal. Not getting an away goal against Karagandy made the second leg an extremely edgy affair. One slip up at Parkhead and we were pretty much out.

    Any type of draw and id be happy, but a clean sheet would defo be a bonus.

    noticed they have Ibraimi who played very well against us before for Maribor.

    Not wanting to make any predictions. Just don't want us to make this another Karagandy type salvage job.

    Aye as long as we are still in the tie going into the second leg and I'm happy, preferably we'll be in the drivers seat

    As Rodgers has said twice now; 35 degrees, a plastic pitch that won't be watered, 6 hour flight and a 5 hour time difference. Added to the fact we're still basically in pre-season.

    I can't see anything other than a tired performance from us, I just hope we're disciplined and organised because they're a dangerous side.

    Give me another 0-0 Qarabag performance now.

    One of few times under Deila we looked relatively sound defensively. The logistics surrounding this are minging, I think it is the reason I am fearing it so much. Same as Qarabag and Karagandy. Why always us:56:

    I think we'll score over there... If I had to predict, I'd say 1-0.

    Wee McGregor.

    Shoiuldnt be allowed at that level of football in my opinion. I understand if a team cannot have a grass pitch due to financial or climate reasons but its just not right.

    Never realised those * scored in the 92nd minute.

    Jesus. A wee trip to Lithuania would have been ideal as well.

    I had them on my coupon as well but Ferencvaros have shagged it already:smiley-laughing002:

    Had 3 games on tomorrow. Had Dinamo Zagreb on as well, notice they had a bit of trouble at home against Skopje.

    Will be a tough game against Astana and with them being half way through their season will make it more difficult ,add into that the heat and the artificial surface , a * of a third round match, if we'd have been well into our season id have us going through but right now I'd say it's 50/50

    This upcoming away leg is going to be a tricky one.

    I'd fancy us at home against anyone on our night, but these are always dangerous places to go and Astana proved last season that they are no pushovers. Done much better than us in Europe last year, not that it would have been hard.

    Ideally, we'll sign a solid CB before the game next week.

    This team aren't even from Europe, it's a * disgrace we need to play sch a team likewise Aberdeen last year who lost to a Kazakh side.

    Why on earth are these teams from Kazakhstan allowed to enter when they aren't part of Europe?

    Because Part of Kazakhstan is in Europe. No-one complains about the Turkish teams playing in Europe.
