I doubt they would keep him , he's unlikely to get a game, they will send him out on loan and it's looking likely it will be Hibs.

[Paul1642]

He’s not going to be in with a sniff of their first team, only the most gifted youngsters have the slightest chance at a club like that, so the only change or mind they could have is to loan him to a better club. If this was his first season on loan to us it would be possible however it seems unlikely given the fact that they were apparently happy for him to return earlier today.

I look forward to watching him next season 😁

I imagine the league cup is right at the bottom of their priority’s this season. We went out to Falkirk and Morton last season and still only missed out on 4th (to a hearts team who were high flying at the start of the season and were put out the league cup by the relegated Kilmarnock) by a whisker and weren’t too far from 3rd.

As happy as i would be to win it again I think most clubs treat at as a side event and it’s not a great indicator of how a teams season is going to go. United certainly won’t be sacking their manager for being put out of it.

On a side note do we have any players out on loan playing today?

All true, but a bad start in the LC sections puts clubs on the back foot from the start, with us being an example last season.
We turned it around eventually but there was a lot of negativity carried well into the league campaign due to our omni-shambles of a start.

I remember Sam coming on, or maybe even making his debut, against Celtic. He looked a class above any of the midfielders we had at the time. I think it was the season we went down but can’t be sure.

I've always been a big Jamie Gullan fan , for me Jamie and Porteous were the stand outs in our cup winning youth team. He had a dreadful time with injuries last season. If he stays fit expect him and Hibby Lewis Vaughan to score plenty this season.

Think it was Jock stein who had his teams play lower level teams, so they could all get in amongst the goals, to do just that even if playing against Rotten Eggs, you can only beat the team you are up against.
Think the most goals I seen Hibs score in a proper game was 11 a couple of times, I missed the Peebles Rovers game as just too young when Joe Baker scored 9 (still never beat his brother Gerries record of 10)

Pumped out the league cup already I assume with defeats to Spartans and Partick. As much as I do like to see the top teams in the Premiership, it would be quite funny if they struggle this season.

[ErinGoBraghHFC]

Most I saw was 9, I think. FC Besa iirc.

I think the most I’ve seen is 6, on a few occasions. Seen us concede 7 though unfortunately

The downfall of Dundee Utd is actually madness. I don't know how Jack Ross managed to make such a mess of it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Robbie Neilson ends up back there at some point this season.

I don't think they're out yet.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Think it was Jock stein who had his teams play lower level teams, so they could all get in amongst the goals, to do just that even if playing against Rotten Eggs, you can only beat the team you are up against.
Think the most goals I seen Hibs score in a proper game was 11 a couple of times, I missed the Peebles Rovers game as just too young when Joe Baker scored 9 (still never beat his brother Gerries record of 10)
Goals are what we go to see, they are what football is all about.

9-0 for me V Montrose is my biggest. Dobbie got a hatrick I think.

They went from Ross to Fox to Goodwin. Fox on the face of it may have just about kept them up.

Edit: maybe not actually as his record includes cup games.

Goodwin should have kept them up reasonably comfortably in my opinion with the squad they had.

For 2 hours of a lot of forms of entertainment held in a venue and performed live you’d be about that if not considerably more.

A musical, a concert, other sporting events. I’m not sure it’s that bad a price tbh. It’s Man Utd, it’s one of the biggest names in sport.

[lucky]

It’s more expensive today to watch Man Utd than it was in the Europa League last season. There are thousands of United fans in Scotland but upwards of £40 for a 1400 kick off midweek for a friendly is a joke. But it will better attended than Hibs & Hearts euro ties combined

[Broken Gnome]

Don't have much a problem with the price as these exhibition types are a bit freakshow-ish, and it's a particular type of fan that goes. It's never really going to be cheaper.

Can't see how it's a GREAT price though, nor comparable to a gig. You'd expect other entertainment to be at peak levels - you're getting an inferior version of a competitive game here which will likely end up a half arsed training session beyond half time.

[Paul1642]

I’m personally not interested in going to see Man United vs Lyon however if it was a game involving two of Barca, Real, Bayern, Man City, Arsenal, Inter, Napoli so on i would be interested.

Scottish football fans might not be interested in todays game but there are plenty of foreign residents / students in Edinburgh who might well be delighted to watch Man U locally.

[Stairway 2 7]

It's up to anyone how they spend their money or what they enjoy, clearly loads as its busy. But mental to me spending £40 minimum for a kick about or £100 min for Taylor Swift singing to a backing track there next year

It shows how badly Scottish football has been marketed over the decades. The obsession with ensuring Celtic and Rangers/Sevco get everything they need to stay at the top in Scotland has meant zero competition, zero entertainment and zero serious interest from football fans, especially those outside of Scotland.

Considerably more than the Man Utd game then for a similar length of entertainment by a band that are a lot less of a powerhouse in their industry than Man Utd are.

I’d have paid £40 to see Utd’s reserves if I’d never seen United at Old Trafford before, I can’t blame folk. Personally I’ll just wait until my Manc pal has a spare ticket for a home game next season and I’ll go to that instead but not everyone has that luxury of knowing a season ticket holder.

I was there for about 6 hours, with music on for say 4 of them and watching a band who don't tour that often.

I'm not really sure what your point is, music and football are quite far removed IMO, the only thing they have in common are stadiums and big crowds.

I don't know the percentages but I do know if you take out the two uglies we are still either the 3rd or 4th highest. Just shows how good Scottish fans are across the country.

Take the cheeks out the equation and it's obviously just for the love of the game methinks.
