Great strike from McGree. Lateral run and hard fast low finish into the bottom corner from beyond the 18 yard box. Amazing. Would his game translate to a higher level league? 

Ashley Maynard Brewer 

His assist for the 3rd goal was class as well. He's got all of the skills, but you're expected to perform like that week in week out in the EPL, so I'm not sure he would have the consistency at this point. 

he looks another level when combining with silvera too

must get along off the pitch well

Gilsenan scores for Blackburn in League Cup.

I see Dench played for Charlton in the EFL trophy. That is first team football but a very minor side tournament where youth teams and most EFL clubs play their bench and youth for fitness. 

A double for Gilsenan. It's 8:0 away to Harrogate. 

App notifications say Gilsenan with a hat trick but upon clicking on the game it's been revised that he's just scored once. 

Ryan and the 3 at Hearts starting in qualifying for Europe.

Degenek will face City, Leipzig and Young Boys.

Should Tilio ever play UCL let alone for Celtic, it's Feyenoord, Atletico and Lazio. 

Hearts down 2:0 at HT. A shame as European nights would've been great. Jeggo and Miller starting at Villa Park in an essential dead rubber.

AZ qualify on pens. My ticker say Brann 'missed' lots of Ryan plaudits though so I assume he saved it. 3:3 after 120min.

Big losses for hearts and hibs. Goes to show the standard of the Scottish league.

Some awful corner defending Ryan should of been livid... too many free headers.

yeah but Rangers did over Dortmund, Leipzeg and Braga in Europe last season. Does that mean that SPl was better than Bundesliga or Portugal? I agree the standard isn't great but this thing ebb and flow

There is a big drop off after Celtic and rangers. After those 2 it’s literally A-league standard.

Hearts highlights. Rotten night. Really enjoyed the qualifiers and Hearts are a nice club in a great ground and city. Just lack the capital to nudge that level higher with some really top players.

Wonderful free kick by Brann there. The 3rd goal I was annoyed Maty missed it but when you look at it, he knows his defender is to high right. He can't risk jump in case a header in made downward and he's got the whole left of goal to worry about. Also, his arm is stretched. imagine stretching all the way and still needing another 30cm ruler to touch the ball, you just can't reach it without the massive risk of and early jump to the right. 

Nice anticipation to save. Got to the 5th as well.

Strain named Player of the Month in Scotland. 

Really he should be starting for the national team, hopefully he does this window.

Irvine starting. Metcalfe bench. 

Segecic started and scored a goal on debut in a 4-2 win. 

Liam Chipperfield scored his 2nd goal in as many games for his new club Sion. I know he's a long shot, but he left Basel & hasn't been picked for a Swiss under age team for a couple of years. He might end up playing for us.

Irvine with an assist.

He's definitely our number 1 RB now.

Gilsenan just got selected for the u21 Irish team, after pulling out of our u23 squad for the french tournament earlier in the year. 

What's the point of travelling halfway across the world to play youth football? He will play good competition in Europe. Did he pull out of the french tournament due to injury?

I seem to recall he pulled out of the squad for "personal reasons".

Segecic scores on debut

Gabriel Popovic unused substitute in Catania's season opening 1-0 loss at home to Crotone

Segecic's move to a dutch 2nd division club is interesting, he will probably get around 10-20 games this season maybe more and from that it either that gets the attention of that dutch club to buy him or for another one to do the same as the dutch league does player development very well or he comes back next season for Sydney FC as a better developed player to the point where he will look to be a starting player next season.

Good luck to him, watching him at the u20s he's clearly a very talented player.

Weird how kisnorbo still has a job 

Iredale returns to bench.
