    I'm not nervous at all. I have never had this feeling before going into a European game it feels strange. I think we'll win 2-1.

    A mind we beat ajax 3-1 in the Amsterdam arena and it was strange cause usually coming off an away leg against a decent team we usually had to win at celik park
    It was like we didn't know whether to defend or attack ended up losing 1-0 and went through but we were dreadful, think we should just play as If we need a goal similar to Rosenberg game, hopefully be first time we watch a champions league qualifier without our nerves being shattered
    Christ we had Efe and O'Connell in defence last year and got a 1-1 draw so surely be plain n simple :fear:

    Christ that's right, mind watching that game. Was * unreal beating Ajax 3-1 away from home. Team was electric that night. I remember the nerves though about the coming to Parkhead.

    Considering the confidence with which our squad are playing with right now and the counter attack threat we have against sides we should be going to Astana and handing them another skelping. We should also be sending a message to UEFA by winning this tie 7/8 to nill that it's a load of bullshit that we have to play three rounds of qualifiers just to get to the group stages. Who knows just how we will fair in the group stages against top quality sides but one thing is for sure - three rounds of qualifiers against the kazahstan, norn irish and norweigan champions is a joke

    I know mate, a know it's down to the country but it's not our fault other Scottish team s get pumped by a 4th place Luxembourg team of workies after there 10 hour shift with their workie boots oan, we shouldn't have to suffer ,
    Great achievement by Leicester but a team that's never played a European match get s pot 1 and we get pot4, total nonsense

    Will Griff be rested since he seems to be having problems with his calf muscles.

    Astana aren't bad at home, strange place, passionate fans - I will be happy with a 1-1 and no injuries or cards.

    Took these two bets

    Sinclair 1st goal and 1-1 40/1 skybet
    Sinclair 1st goal and celtic 2-1 also 40/1
    You'd think the 2nd bet odds would be different ( higher ) but still worth £2 each.

    Confident after seeimg their defence last week but do think they'll score.
