Asghar's social media are private so this is either a legit screen grab from someone who has chosen to leak a private message or fabricated bullshit. I suspect the latter but it's not cool either way

If Asghar genuinely is the villain that some want to portray then the signs will be apparent quick enough without folk spinning this sort of shit. If the worst were to be believed on here then Ogren is a  moron, Asghar is a crook, Courts is a clown and the players are shite. Fucking remarkable achievements thus far if even half of that is right.

As ever, some fans just grasp onto anything which they can complain about. After the Ross County match, some supporters who were on the park were complaining about Courts lack of style and it being a shit season. They'll be in their element when things actually do go tits up.

Fair play to him. A 4th place finish and Europe is a fantastic finish for us this year. Also introducing 15 players from the academy was great to see, albeit at times it felt like we will give this kid 30 mins and thats another one we can say we have played and they weren't seen again. 

The club is going the right way for sure but the football by and large was very poor. We could improve considerably as a team next year and struggle to get top 6 with Aberdeen , Hibs and to be honest everyone except Livi and RC unlikely to be as bad again. I'm far from a hater and dont mind the fella but we scored less than a goal a game which is pathetic. He moaned about being last on Sportscene repeatedly but only Saints had games with less goals than us and if you put us first up folk would switch off due to boredom. Courts can set up teams well against better sides. Make it hard for them but it can be brutal to watch. When we go a goal down we have to go forward and can be a much better side. When its level or we go one we are way too passive. 

Anyway, Im hoping as promised it will be much better on the eyes next year and really hope we get another interview at the end of next year saying how well its gone.

This is a good watch/listen. Tam comes across very well indeed IMO. Great to hear him talking openly about some of the players and details of what goes on behind the scenes and in training etc. More of this please.

Watched some of it yesterday. Once you get past the awkwardness and Ally Heather's general cringe its actually quite good. 

I still think Tam needs to prove himself by producing better (well, watchable) performances on the park but it does sound like there's some sort of thinking behind the wafflepish. I did like how the he explained the club also focus on how a player leaves being important and how they work with players and help them move on.

There's way more potential opponents than that.

Gonna guess we won't be heading to Luhansk though!

Only using Wikipedia lol  Get a headache trying to work it out.  Drops out from champions league and europa teams added to 3rd round etc

We wont get easy draw no matter what happens to be fair.

None of the drop-outs will be in our pathway in Q3.

There's a few play-off games around Europe this weekend and after that a more complete list will be available.

Still, UEFA do a weird secret grouping of possible opponents closer to the draw, so...
