    A hypothetical of course, but if given the choice and can obv only pick one.
    The Scottish Premiership, nine in a row.
    Or the Europa League, beating a so-called heavyweight in the final - Roma, Man United, Benfica, a team like that.
    Losing the league would mean Sevco win it.
    Europa League is obviously the prestige of another European trophy after so many years and guaranteed automatic Champions League group stage next year.

    Europa League hands down.. as much as it'd hurt to lose out on the 9 and subsequently the 10, a European trophy holds much more prestige than a domestic record. Plus we'd be guaranteed group stage CL football next year.

    Winning the league is ALL that maters for this season and next...

    After that .... making sure the Huns win NOTHING.

    Any european success within that is a bonus.

    But why not win both???

    Also cast our minds back to 03,think about it??

    Both winning the League and winning the Europa League are both Huge.
    But to win a 2nd European Trophy to add to our Green And White History would be unreal

    Both - because we can. Football is never about just doing one.


    But you are wanting us to push for a single answer, so Europa League.


    We done 9 in a row before, we done it first. I'd rather another European Cup to get our hands on.

    The prestige of that is ten fold that of an SPFL league title. The only sore bit to not winning the league is that it is likely the huns win it instead - they will gloat etc etc, but in time it wouldn't mean *.

    They'd never get in to CL anyway - we would directly get in to it.

    Yes imagine winning the Europa League next May,our Green and White Smiles would shine and shine and shine.
    Not only that even if the Huns won the title they would be back in the Europa League next season,maybe matching their last 16 run,while we get to the last 8 in the CL and maybe beyond??
    * to lift a European Trophy next May,just really think about it:ynwacelti

    Because I'm a bitter and hateful *, the league.

    At no point do I ever want to see them lift a trophy when it is one we have full control over stopping them to do so. Losing any domestic trophy directly to them is unforgiveable

    I'm not picky.
    If I had to pick only one, at this moment in time, then it's the League, especially even more so after yesterday's result.

    Europa. They can take the next 3 championships. European cups mean sooo much more than any record domestically.
