Gogic has had an uncharacteristic horror show today. 

I don't think he was fit. I get we want him playing even if not 100% but he was suspect at all 3 goals.

As for the game as a whole, at 1-1 we had them rattled and could've scored again. We ran out of steam at the end but it's absolutely no disgrace. They're in Europe season after season and we gave them a game over 2 legs.

Lacked the quality upfront that will cost us unless we get a striker in. Defence has looked shaky since start of the season. 

Great effort but cant help but feel we contributed to losing this one

Guys face is on his knee, apparently. He went full Ronaldinho. TBF, I do think it was a foul, just not a high foot.

Thought Gogic pulled out of it and it was a shocking decision but maybe need to see it again

That was a much, much better performance than last week. Not to be though. They're operating at a considerably higher level than us, so was always going to be really difficult. Toyosi slipping when Mika had it out wide at 1-1 though.....

Anyway, been amazing to be back in Europe. Hopefully, it won't be another 37 years!

The way the co-efficient is going it will take a quality saints team it make it to Europe again.  I doubt we will for a good while

We may make europe but its tough to make a group stage. 

If we had a fully fit squad we would have run them closer. 

Really good effort and proud of the team.

Tonight just shows how far we've come in a relatively short time. 5 minutes away from taking a quality team into extra time in Europe. 

Plenty to be upbeat about.

C'est la vie. Didn't expect to win tonight  but at least made a go of it.  A couple of more signings, one in midfield and one up front and we will be ok this season

My feelings too.

A wee bit of hope instilled by the equaliser, but we were beaten by the better team in the end.

Just too many players in midfield having to play a major role in the team too early.

Ach, hey ho if that's the case. A couple of European nights have been inserted into the memory bank alongside other great moments!

It's the hope that gets you...

Not that much in it. A fit O'hara in midfield would have helped, as would a few more games under the belt for the new players. The late goals came largely from the team tiring and losing concentration.

I wouldn't mind another look but I do think Gogic kicked him.

Much better display. But why take Taylor off when Gogic was struggling so badly?

Taylor was one of a couple players on yellows who looked nailed on to be getting sent off not long before we equalised. Idowu was the other. It was the sensible move.

Buddies? Did yous win chaps?

Finished 3-1 on the night, 4-2 to Brann on aggregate. This information is pretty widely available mate.
