Percy is right, we beat Rangers 3-1 in 1887, match was played in Crewe.

Why was it played in Crewe?

Either opponent should be pretty handy in terms of travel etc. with games against Burnley and Liverpool the following weekends. Could have been worse.

Didn't we play Hibs in some sort of friendly relatively recently?

Seem to recall there was a bit of, shall we say, overly boisterous behaviour on the day?

Lucerne is a fantastic place for anyone thinking of going (if they get through)

Do Hibs fans generally quite like us because of the SJM factor?

Maybe, but I think it's more to do with the fact they're looking forward to the 500 mile walk or more.

Apparently, changes and fixture reversals will be decided by tomorrow evening;

"Any changes of date and fixture reversals will be communicated in writing to the clubs and national associations by 18:00 CET on 8 August."

Didn’t Hibs lose to an Andorran side last week in the away leg?

I reckon we're the big draw in this competition, with our history, squad, manager and that we're in the Premier League.

Hibs view

We're such a big draw, we've crashed their forum.

Bit defeatist aren't they?  Expecting to lose to Lucerne.

More realists I'd say, they lost 3-2 at home to St. Mirren yesterday. We'll probably be as disappointed as them if they don't go through.

Their midfielder Joe Newell is from Tamworth and a nose.

Thank You for some Insight.
I can reveal Harry McKirdy and Doyle Hayes are Villa academy graduates. Many here are familiar with them to a degree.
