Could European schedule impact Hibs' league start?
We asked for your views on Hibs' Scottish Premiership fixtures and how they will be faring after 10 games.Here's what some of you said:Keith: We could realistically get four wins from our first four games. A good start this season is a must.Sandy: I think we will only lose one game out of our first ten, that is obviously Celtic away. A draw with Rangers and Aberdeen and the rest wins, but in the SPFL anything can happen.Kenny: The first five games we should be looking to win them, but in order to do that we need to see the defence and midfield strengthened. We can't afford the start we had last year. A centre-forward is a must.Laurence: A lot may depend on how many European games we have, but after 10 games I'd hope we are third or fourth and looking to narrow the gap to those above us heading into the winter.

McCoist names the Celtic transfer that would 'hurt' Rangers
The Irish striker is out of favour at Brighton and Hove Albion after an unsuccessful loan spell at West Ham United last season. Ferguson burst onto the scene on the south coast in the 2022/23 campaign, across which he scored 10 goals in 25 games. Read more: His future is currently up in the air, and several pundits have mentioned Celtic as potential suitors. McCoist thinks Ferguson joining the Parkhead club would 'hurt' Rangers: "I'm a fan," he said [Scottish Sun]. "I want him to get fit. I really like Evan Ferguson, and I really want him to get fit and stay fit. "He can finish. Out of all the younger ones coming through, I thought Evan Ferguson was the one to watch. 'Obviously, he's got one or two injuries going on that have held him back a bit, but if he keeps himself fit, he will score goals anywhere. "The unfortunate thing for my mob [Rangers] is, he could come in and hurt us. Definitely. "It wouldn't surprise me at all. I'm a big fan." Shay Given, who spent time at Celtic as a teenager, thinks the striker would be a 'perfect' fit for the Scottish Premiership champions: "Evan just needs to find a home, if I'm being honest," he said last week. "Be it here [at Celtic] or somewhere else. He needs someone to say, 'You're my player.' "He went to West Ham for Graham Potter and you thought that was the perfect fit because Graham had him at Brighton. But then he didn't play so much at West Ham either. "Michail Antonio and someone else was injured, yet they played Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus - not Ferguson. What happens next for Evan? "I just think he needs to go, be it a loan for a season or some club buys him, and you build the team around him. I think he's a top player, I really do. "I did some Malaysian TV recently with Bobby Zamora and he goes into Brighton once a week and coaches the strikers. Bobby said Evan was the best finisher at the club. "Maybe because he burst onto the scene that everyone's been expecting so much so soon. But again, with young players, you need to have a bit of time. "I just feel he's ready now to burst onto the scene for a full season with somebody. For us, with Ireland, it would be great too. "I don't know if the finances would be to buy him, but if you said for a loan for the season, it would be perfect. But I'm not the financial power at Celtic or Newcastle, so I don't know!"
