We're (Linfield) are away to Cliftonville tomorrow. It's the first time since the 70's that our fans will be allowed to make their own way to their ground. Since 1998 we've been bussed in via a police escort and herded in and out of the ground due to safety concerns. Before that, all games between the sides had to be played elsewhere. To be honest, it's one of my favourite away games maybe because of that edge. I'm really hoping tomorrow passes off peacefully, which I cannot see why it wouldn't, and most importantly we leave with 3 points in the bag.

Big Lafferty make an appearance? Hoping the big man settles in well again as I know a few Gers who aren't too fussed on him returning.

He came on for the last 20 minutes.

I was one of them but now he's here he'll get the usual 100% backing from me.

Looking at the team now, it looks like they have different options now for setting up how they want to play and the big guy will certainly bring another option.

As already noted, he came on the last 20 minutes or more and was booked almost immediately. He put in a shift but by that time the service was sparse at best and the Russians stuck to their game plan reasonably well.

It is confirmed: Becker and Van Dijk are the new Grobelaar and Hansen. A few things the keeper did today were soooo reminiscent of Ol' Wobbly Legs that I expect to be hearing reports very soon of him being filmed in clandestine meetings with shady middle eastern businessmen.
 
Another great night at Ibrox last night. A bit disappointing that it's only a 1 goal advantage as with better decision making and a bit more composure, it could have been so much better. Once again, the Russians are no mugs and the return leg is far from a foregone conclusion but I'm hopeful we will score over there to allow us to progress.
How's Connor Goldson doing for you? A fella i work with remembers him as a young lad at Wolves looked promising although got released.
