The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I think we need a really strong performance here to put a marker down. Teams just don't fear us at the moment, hopefully we score a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is Raith know this all too well, they took advantage of it pretty much every time we faced them last season and Saturday will be no different, players need to really step up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do with a few goals tonight for the confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varna Rover Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 On this evenings showing against Stranraer i think we may just have a easier ride than most think. A lucky own goal did it for hibs tonight. We aint that generous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ding Dang Doo Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Going by the reports tonight it was a typical Hibs performance. We certainly have nothing to fear on Saturday. Keep it tight at the back, give nothing away and I'm not sure they will have what it takes to break us down. Team line-up will depend on what happens with Thomson's appeal tomorrow but if he's still out I wonder if he'll stick Toshney right back and put Davo into centre defence. Would probably mean Petrie coming into centre midfield as well. If not then I'm not sure else we could do other than put Bates into central defence. As well as he's done this season away at Easter Road would be a massive step up for the lad. I would expect Wighton to come back in in place of either Anderson or Megginson. Confidence is high though and whatever team McKinnon puts out we'll be well organised. Absolutely gutted I can't make it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Loads of chances again tonight, someone's gonna take a pumping when we start tucking them away. Id start Keatings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Varna Rover, I really doubt we'll get any kind of an 'easy' ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Romanov Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Keatings needs 5 chances to score 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Varna Rover, I really doubt we'll get any kind of an 'easy' ride. I did think that but again a massive step bringing him in for his first league start away at Easter Road. I know Matthews has played right back before in the past but again a bit of a gamble. Lets just hope the appeal is successful and we don't have to go down this route.

Zing. Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Raith have more than a good chance of a result here. We look like we're still struggling to score goals on a huge scale. No pace or urgency about our play at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pace or urgency about our play at all. On the plus side Darren McGregor look good tonight. Also it's clear to see Dylan is going to be our best player. Calm as f**k on the ball.

No pace or urgency about our play at all. This is what bugs me and has done for years. We seem to lack any urgency when we have the ball to try and break a team down.

thelocalcat Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 If Hibs don't win this one then surely it's time to question Stubbs' position, could you really stomach three seasons in this division?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Naturally the weekend the Rovers are away in Edinburgh is the very same one I already have plans in another country. Pretty confident of getting some kind of result in this, Hibs are nothing to be scared of and Daly is guaranteed to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Well with Thomson out, how does the back line go? As I see it, there's three options. In order of likelihood: Toshney Davidson Benedictus McKeown Toshney Bates Benedictus McKeown Ford Toshney Benedictus McKeown If Davidson does drop back, it'd open the door for Petrie (if he's fit? Not on the bench on Tuesday) or Matthews to come into midfield alongside McCord and Craigen. We just can't get the same team out on the park at the moment, and without Callachan and Vaughan it's not our strongest, either... Think we'll go Cuthbert Toshney Davidson Benedictus McKeown Anderson Petrie McCord Craigen Wighton Stewart Daly lined up to come on with 20 to play. Megginson the other option from the bench.
