Is it f*ck“This is a club going places. There are not many clubs you can go to who can realistically achieve playing in Europe.
“This is a huge club in a brilliant city. It hasn’t been ideal not having fans, that’s kind of killed my short stay here so far.
“But I want to experience European nights, full houses under the lights here at Easter Road.
“That was the aim at the start of the season and we’re still on track for that.
“When you play down in England, in the Championship like I had been, getting into Europe isn’t something you even think about.
“It’s not going to happen when you are in those leagues, so it is a pull Scottish football has. Players want to play on that stage and, as a club, it helps to attract people up here.
“So becoming a team who plays in Europe regularly is good for us personally but also the club. It brings finances in and persuades players from elsewhere to come here, so it’s a win-win
“Getting into Europe, and hopefully doing it regularly, would be massive for the club. It has to be a big target here now.”
3rd place in the league will be guaranteed group stages in the Europa conference league at least ....As much as I detest the spoon burning feckers, i want our teams to do well and actually qualify for group stages. We need to improve this shite league. They'll still be horsed in the first qualifiers though:shh:

Actually there are dozens of clubs who can achieve playing in Europe.“This is a club going places. There are not many clubs you can go to who can realistically achieve playing in Europe.
They will be out before anyone is allowed to go on holiday
Whoever finishes 3rd is guaranteed it. (Unless the Scottish Cup finishes this season)This thread emphasises how much folk don’t at least read the thread before commenting.
loads of comedians with ‘out before the schools go back’ when it’s stated early doors they’re almost guaranteed group stage action.
You don’t have to tell me this. I already said they’re almost guaranteed it (due to being 3rd currently and SC unlikely to finish)Whoever finishes 3rd is guaranteed it. (Unless the Scottish Cup finishes this season)
That playoff round we fought for 3 years unseeded to get to, Ufa Legia Galatasaray.
They go straight into it because of the work we did. If you lose you go into the new conference league.
Thats a fvcking embarrassing stat.They’ve won 3 ties in 30 years. On average they get through 1 tie every 10 years.
And Hibs are meant to be one of the bigger clubs in the league.
We better shout louder and they might realise.You don’t have to tell me this. I already said they’re almost guaranteed it (due to being 3rd currently and SC unlikely to finish)
That's what makes out league a joke at times..... look at comparable leagues around Europe .... Belgium for instance is more attractive because the overall standard of teams in their league is more equitable.They’ve won 3 ties in 30 years. On average they get through 1 tie every 10 years.

Love his ambition but big European nights at Easter Road is a pipe dream. If Hibs progress to the 4th round qualifier it will be an achievement for them considering how poor all the other scottish teams have been doing recently.
A poor Motherwell team thumped one of those N. Ireland jobber teams 5-1 earlier this season having put out another of them in the previous round. Bad as Hibs are in Europe, I wouldn’t expect teams from those countries to present any problems.Furthest they will get in europe is pumped out in the qualifying by some jobber welsh team or irish team
