Live on BBC Scotland if you want to follow what could be a historic night for the Saints.

100th European appearance for Hibs tonight, and of course they were the first British side to ever compete in Europe, when they were invited to play in the inaugural European Cup back in 1955-56.

Aberdeen and Celtic also in action, but they should both ease through with minimal fuss.

Gordan playing at CB is a Burnley fan.

Good game and SJ are certainly not overawed by their esteemed opponents, their defensive discipline and tenacity reminds you of Burnley in many respects.

A few familiar names in the Galatasaray squad as well, many with plenty of PL experience. But they're finding it tough in Perth this evening against this dogged SJ team.

2-1 Galatasaray and a well worked goal it was.

Turks comfortably the better side

G.A.M.E O.V.E.R 1-3

3-1 and surely that's game over, a plucky effort by St Johnstone over the 2 legs, but the extra class has come to the fore in the end.

2-4, credit SJ fans, been superb even at 1-4

Gala the far the better side and way ahead of saints.

Isn't everyone a Burnley fan, just that some go through their entire lives without realising it?

I say it loosely. He is a friend of a friend. I attend a few games a season in their hospitality and always have a good chat with him about football etc. He said he always keeps an eye in Burnley results etc.
