On holiday in the North Wales and we are fortunate to be able to attend a UEFA Europa League tie although it is a 40 minute drive west this time to the City of Bangor.  Third year in a row we have managed to add a new ground to the list, previously attended The New Saints just over the border into Oswestry, Shropshire and also Bala Town in Rhyl.

MATCH 1651 - Thursday, 14 July 2016

SEASON: 2016/17

QUALIFYING ROUND - 1st Leg

Venue:  EASTER ROAD STADIUM

Hibernian    0    Brøndby IF    1



Scorer:  Wilczek

I travelled through to Edinburgh to watch Hibs' reward for winning the Scottish Cup for the first time in over 100 years - a return to European football in the Europa League.  It was a lovely summers evening in the capital for what was also Neil Lennon's first match in charge of Hibernian.  Within 20 seconds his new side were behind due to a bad goalkeeping error however it didn't get any worse and Hibs were unlucky not to get something from the game as a dubious off side decision just before half time denied them an equalizer.
