We had a good first month, qualifying for the group stage of the Europa League, the quarter-finals of the Betfred Cup, and winning 3 of our first 4 matches in the league. Let's see if we can continue that form into September.



I played a few fringe players in our Betfred Cup game, but we still came through it rather comfortably, and it was good seeing us get a lot of goals, something we did quite a few times this month. Our reward is an away tie against Hibs in the semi-final.



An excellent start in the Europa League, a comfortable victory against Vitesse and a hard fought victory against Leipzig. In truth, we should have been more comfortable against Leipzig, but I made 3 substitutes after our 2nd goal, which got them into it a bit more. The reason why I made 3 substitutes? Because we had what could be a very crucial league game coming up.

As you might expect we are top of our group and look set to go through, particularly with back to back games against Astana coming up.




A perfect month so far. let's see if we kept up our perfect form in the league.



Almost, we did brilliantly on the whole. The only bad point was a tight defeat to Rangers, but coming off the big victory against Leipzig, it was understandable. A high-point as to be a sensational 5-1 victory against Hibernians, where we utterly dominant.

So let's see where that puts us in the league.



Still 4th, but it is very tight at the top, and you never know, there may be a surprise title challenge in the offing yet.

Player of the month has to go to Harwood-Bellis who has not only been ace at the back, but also going forward, scoring 4 goals.



Thank you all for reading.
