So we're heading to Europe..........

So we're heading for Europe? That's what the Scottish media would like you to think.

But what would happen if the Lions' form took a dive and we ended up just missing out on a Uefa Cup place? I don't know if this would make our season a failure.

Yes, I know we're out of both cup competitions, but third place in the table, six points ahead of Aberdeen, is still a handy place to be.

The Lions have shown that even when they don't play well, they can still grind out a result.

Motherwell should have won the game at the weekend but failed to convert their chances. I thought we were poor and after Nick Culkin let the ball through his legs, I could see them putting three or four past us.

But all credit to the Lions, they battled well and showed how to stick the ball in the net.
