Really hope Motherwell do it, even if it means we don't get a European place. A back to back treble for celtic is embarrassing for Scottish football IMO. Just highlights even more how massive the gap is between 1 club and everyone else.
Celtic rightly massive favourites but they aren't unbeatable, they've shown this season they can have off days (I mean losing 4-0 to the shower of ***** that is Hearts - wtf?!) so Motherwell got to believe they're in for a chance. This could be their very own "Time for Heroes" game!

Hope Motherwell do it even if Hibs lose out? You’re at the wind up surely.

I would normally be right behind Motherwell but there’s something at stake for Hibs.
It’s a big game for us to clinch a European place and we don’t even have to do anything.
Celtic win please. Not even a choice.

Celtic for me . Don’t give a jot for Motherwell. It’s all about Hibs . European football ,money,prestige and hopefully a nice couple of away trips. Its what the team have worked for all season . Cmon the lesser greens .

Of course Celtic to win is a must for us, but, I think it will be the underdog that wins this one.

Normally I'd be shouting for Motherwell but Hibs need Celtic to win this one, so reluctantly it has to be the second team to wear the green this time round.

Obviously want to get into Europe, and getting into group stages is a long term aspiration for the club.
But I can understand those who could take it or leave it. I think the Malmo debacle has people wary of taking on competitive games in July against quality opposition who are mid season and much further forward in terms of fitness.
I can’t remember the last time we got into Europe and didn’t fail at the first hurdle. Must be 25 years or so?

Surely every Hibby wants celtic to win purely for a Europa league place. Normally wouldnt care much. Celtic dont win trophies anyway they buy them.

I am not fussed either way to be honest.
Obviously if Celtic win we are in Europe and that ensures the fans at least one trip away.
However these days I am not sure the club makes much money from it if we are knocked out after one or two rounds. Also, it starts so early now that it disrupts our pre season and in years gone by most of our new signiings haven’t even arrived or bedded in by the time the qualifiers start.
So for me, Europe is a nice to have but if Motherwell win I will be delighted for their fans.

Normally would want Motherwell to win, but a European spot is up for grabs. A place in the Europa league qualifiers would at least give us some reward for the great season we've just had.

We can’t win the league so all you are playing for is a European place. We need to dream that one year we can get through a few rounds towards the group stages. Every year there are tiny clubs from some far flung places who manage it so why couldn’t it be a Hibs or Aberdeen one year?

Lennon also has an excellent record in Europe, we’re regularly taking points off a strong Celtic side - don’t think we should be running scared of equivalent teams in other countries.

Celtic win - gets us into Europe, gets us extra revenue, gets us into the last 16 of the League Cup, winds up the H**s even more.
Motherwell win - would be funny from a Scottish Football perspective.
Celtic win.

A lot on here would be wanting Celtic to win, even if the European place wasn't at stake.

I’ve no idea why anyone would want Motherwell to win in these circumstances. Celtc might be a horrible, detestable outfit but I’ll be cheering them on for 90 minutes on Saturday.

Celtic win for me. Could do with Motherwell conceding a penalty early doors with a straight red to settle the nerves.

How can folk be so flippant about a place in Europe? It's what we've been playing for all season.
