Hamilton defender Brian Easton can't wait for the new season to start, as the club prepares for life in Scotland's top division for the first time since 1989.
The 20-year-old has already made 79 first-team appearances for the Accies, but is keen to test himself against the best players in Scotland.
He told the Hamilton Advertiser: "I'm really looking forward to playing against people like Aiden McGeady and Shunsuke Nakamura at Celtic and Rangers players like Nacho Novo and Chris Burke.
"But to be honest, as soon as we get there, when we cross that line it's down to business. We're not going there to be tourists or be overawed - we're going there to do our jobs and try to get a result.
"But you look at all the players you're up against, the stadia you're going to be playing in, and I really can't wait for the start - it's brilliant."
