    It was the KR Chairman who said it in an interview. I meant the 22nd or 23rd instead of 25/26th.

    Hope its the 22nd, if its the 23rd I probably wont go as I leave for Hamburg in the middle of the night. Means I probably wouldn't get home from Murrayfield till about 10:30pm-11pm and need to be at the airport for about 3am.

    We should crush them. They got pumped 9-1 by Helsinki the same season we played them, so that gives us a pointer to what sort of team they are.

    It's never that straightforward though is it?

    Finnish League is already in full-swing though by the time of the qualifiers so its Helsinki players at full-strength.

    We'll be playing them after about 20 days back training into pre-season and 4 friendlies.

    The first qualifiers we play are basically additional pre-season games, so we'll never really play that well in them.

    Even at that we should beat them comfortably, qualifiers this early don't come as a surprise to us now so we should be sharp, not 100% but sharp enough. I'm not demanding putting 9 past them but a convincing win in Deila's first tie would be nice.

    Aye, they are obviously a poor team we should bypass easily like Cliftonville or that but I wouldnt expect anything great in the games.

    By the time we meet we will only be 21 days into pre-season and they will be 14 games into their season.

    Our first League game is 4 weeks and 1 day after we first play them.

    Yeah Haymarket and its about a mile walk to the stadium.
    This is a nice easy draw for Deila to start off with.

    off at Haymarket then tram straight outside to Murrayfield - takes you right to the stadium.
