HibsFan Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I know it's a bit annoying when fans on here say that only their team could f**k up like that, but only Hibs could f**k up like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 There's more than Thompson saying the Hibs penalty was dodgy tbf.Eight points clear off the relegation places wasn't where I expected us in September so we've got to be happy with that.

Lofarl Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Classic Hibs. Was impressed with Motherwell. You just knew they'd get a goal. Rocky was shocking in goals today. Whittaker is a waste of a jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Stubbs Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Absolute guff again. That first Motherwell goal was in the post all afternoon. When McGregor isn't playing, nobody takes responsibility for crosses, balls were flying past every Hibs defender to the back post all game. Nice finish for the equaliser but embarrassing defending before it. Pretty impressed with Motherwell, worth a point at the very least. That Moult is a cracking player. I was a bit surprised/relieved they sat in for the last 5 and took the point. Unless we do something in the cups (#turmoil if we lose on Tuesday) it's gon' be a frustratingly mediocre season.

MJC Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Fantastic point from another excellent second half display and if anything we can be a bit disappointed not to have taken all three as we were by far and away the better side in the second 45. It's absolutely brilliant to have a team that you know will fight tooth and nail every single week and even at 2-0 down today you knew we weren't out of it. Moult again today showed he was worth his weight in gold as even though he wasn't having his best game he is always capable of getting on the scoresheet and his second goal today was a superb effort. If we could only sort out our first half performances we'd do very well this season, but this team has guts and that's hugely encouraging. Bring on the Sheep double header!

Alan Stubbs Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 On the pen, I thought we had a much stronger claim for one a few minutes before than the one that was given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Prince Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Plus point. We didn't give the team a goal head start like every other fucking game this season. Negative point - we chucked a 2 goal lead away at home. Second mind, Lennon believes we're as good as the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zing. Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Lennon has absolutely ripped Marciano in the press as well. Always ends well that. To be fair, his attempt at getting the ball for the first was utterly bizarre. Stokes is going to be utterly vital for us, if he stops scoring we're humped. Murray looks to have been found out already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I'd say that was a test passed yesterday - going 2 down (despite being well in the game) would have been the end of it for us last season but we are a totally different proposition now. They handled a big crowd and an incompetent referee really well. I said before the game that I was interested to see how Kipre did against a good striker in Stokes and the answer was - not very well. It was probably his poorest game for us, yet he still won a lot of headers and gave us some of the best entertainment of the day with his mazy at the end It does remind us to temper the hype about him a little bit and remember it was the 6th league game of his career... On the other hand - Campbell looks worthy of any hype coming his way - stamped his authority on the midfield in a way that's beyond his years & experience (and again covered for Mchugh being mediocre by his high standards). Difficult to see how he can be dropped in this form. Moult once again showed why we were right to insist on a high bid for him in the summer - he's worth actual money to us (via league placings, etc) being in the team and will be difficult to replace when he goes. Hibs were odd yesterday - looked a decent team without ever being streets ahead of us - but completely downed tools after Stokes' second. I wonder if it was due to the fact that it would have been game over in the first division last year if they got a 2 goal lead. Strange to say as this was our problem over the past few years - but Hibs' fitness looked poor in the last 20 - there were a few that looked done while 'Well players were still doing 50 or 60 yard runs....I would expect that if we're back at Easter Rd later in the season when Hibs are used to playing at this level again, we wouldn't find it so easy to come back from 2 down.... Lastly - the strength of our squad was there to see again today - Tanner and Bigi changed the game in our favour when they came on - and to have 2 like that on the bench that can take advantage of tiring opponents was fantastic (and could have got us the 3 points in the end). We couldn't be going into the Quarter final in better shape IMO.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
