SuperShug1910 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Looking forward to this one. Great to get the first win under our belts yesterday with a lot of players impressing. Meggatt and Balatoni at the back is looking like a solid partnership and with the different options we have up front - Forrest, Nisbet, Thomas, O'Connell and Harkins - we are capable of pulling off a shock. I expect us to play with a bit of freedom as the pressure of getting the first win is off us now and that could work in our favour. Unlikely Moore will be back for this one so I'd go with Nisbet up top and Harkins playing in behind. Going to be a tough game with us probably seeing little of the ball and being under a lot of pressure but maybe we can surprise a few. Need our big players to step up, Harkins is a real match winner when he turns it on. Heart says 1-1 however head says Hibs to win by a couple. Mon Ayr!

HibsFan Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 If we put in a performance like we did against Morton then I would be hoping for a 2-0/3-0/3-1 scoreline to reflect this. Watch out for crosses, we actually do those now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 A Hibs win but recent performances make me think it will be closer than I would have thought a month ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Terrace Gazza Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hibs by 2 clear goals but we will make them sweat I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you bring as many as 500? It’s good to have a reasonable away support and there are plenty of good pubs/restaurants around Easter Road for you to enjoy pre match.

Think between 400 - 500 after our first win yesterday and the novelty factor of playing first league game in the capital for a while.

SheldonCooper Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Would take a draw now but head says 3-1 to Hibs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Not sure if McCall will change much in terms of team selection. It's incredibly unlikely Moore will play even if he isn't injured since he won't have match fitness anyway. Think McGuffie deserves a chance to show how good he actually is and is pace could make a difference for us. Would go FlemingDevlinBalatoniMeggatBoyleDochertyAdamsGillyHarkinsMcGuffieForrestWould take a draw right now but I've a feeling that Hibs will sneak a 2-1 with Cummings scoring for them and McGuffie getting one for us.

Young Eddie Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 We took something like 380 to Tannadice so I would expect at least as many, probably more, to head through for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heading up Fri afternoon, any recommendations for 3 or 4 decent boozers within walking distance of each other in the city centre for Fri night?

I actually live in Glasgow. The Cafe Royal opposite Waverley Station on the other side of Princes Street is a good boozer and there are a few pubs nearby. Ot you could go to Broughton Street - top of Leith Walk - Mathers is a great pub and there are plenty more pubs as you walk down Broughton Street. Another alternative is the Grassmarket - off the High Street - plenty good pubs around there, good starter is Three Sisters in Cowgate (bit of a rugby pub).

Dudu Dahan pal Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 2-1 to the hibs. Cummings to get both. Ayr to get a late late goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackenzie43 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I've got a similar feeling to this as I did before the Morton game. I think it could be another 3/4 to nil. Hopefully if McGeouch is fit enough to start, it will be a frightening midfield. Could be a key weekend with Qos vs Raith and Falkirk vs United, points could be dropped. Think this weekend is also a hibs kids day or whatever so could see it being another decent crowd, potentially 15000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
