  1. Bartley might have got this one wrong but to refer to a black man who’s suffered racially abused previously as “being offended” is pretty fucking disgusting to be quite honest, horrendous take from you. Bartley obviously got this one wrong but referring to potential racist abuse as “being offended” really doesn’t sit right with me and should sit right with anyone who’s not a racist.
  2. How’s he being doing for you? Looked decent for us in the friendlies, was expecting us to keep him around.
  3. I don’t think this could have been much worse to be quite honest.
  4. I would just like to add how sorry I am for everything I said about Lee Johnson. I was completely wrong, he is so David Brent and I absolutely love it.
  5. Wolves already tried and failed I think. Pretty sure he’s a Hibs fan and we’re likely to keep hold of him, at least until he breaks through. Having Marshall ahead of him probably works well given his age, hopefully should be able to step into his shoes once he retires like @Lyle Lanley says.
  6. Did everything asked of him, saved one of the penalties really well but not too many shots on target to deal with really, decent kicker of the ball too, after having to watch Macey for a year you realise how important that is. Watched a few of Airdrie’s highlights when he was there and he does look brilliant, only 17 too, for him to be excelling in League 1 already is a good sign.
  7. Went along to the U18 game tonight. Honestly that was absolutely box office entertainment. Molde clearly a lot more technically proficient than we were but we definitely created the better of the chances, at least before the end where we admittedly were hanging on a bit. When Cabraja gets sold for big bucks Oscar MacIntyre is going to be a more than able replacement, looks an absolute superstar, so comfortable on the ball and a brilliant carrier of it too. Murray Aiken and Jacob Blaney the best of the rest, Aiken was unplayable in the first half and Blaney looks like a brilliant defender but also a brilliant passer of the ball. Nantes game on the 26th October, will definitely go along to that again assuming it’s at ER, really enjoyable.
  8. IPTV died in the first half but that second half was pretty damn good. Kenneh, Kukharevych, Newell (yes, it’s me the president of his hate club praising him) and Porteous were the stand outs from what I saw but plenty other decent performances too. The only black mark was Youan although he was rightly hooked by Johnson and you’ve got to praise him for that. Got to be aiming for 6 points from our next 2 which would get us into 3rd place and then we’ve got a total free hit at Parkhead. I don’t want to sound too excited but things are looking good, and not only results wise unlike the closed doors football, we’re playing some superb stuff.
  9. I was absolutely planning on coming up to this but I drank way too much in Krakow watching Sir Steve Clarke’s lads and I think I probably have covid so I won’t be super spreading the deadly virus to poor little Dingwall. I think this is probably the first time in a long time that with the international break ending I was looking forward to watching Hibs again so I’m fully prepared to have my excitement taken away again.
  10. What a trip. Posting from the Stanstead Airport quiet zone with a banging headache, very unsettled stomach and general undefined “fear” but it’s all more than worth it. 0-0 wins are what we do best, Porteous and Hickey the stand outs, absolutely delighted for Porteous, shut loads of mouths up which is lovely to see. Special mention for the Dunfermline fans that looked after and let my idiot mate stay with them after he managed to get completely lost on Monday night. I don’t think I’ve ever had this excitement for the national team, or my club team really as a matter of fact. The potential we have in terms of progression is huge and we could genuinely do something really exciting with this group of players and Clarke in charge, I think he alone deserves 90% of the credit for this upturn and it’s absolutely amazing to be part of it. Superb trip, buzzing for the draw next weekend to see where this team are taking us next.
  11. Was it just me or did it feel like it took absolutely fucking ages for McGinns shot to hit the net. I was sat in the East and it honestly felt like it rolled across the goal for a solid 10 seconds.
  12. Interesting that this stats guy gives us a 67% chance of getting 2nd seed. I’m assuming that’s as the best runner up given Ukraine are up there in his predictions too.
  13. There’s pretty much 1 article per week of someone complaining about him in the media which is going to take its toll on a human being. No one’s asking him for him to be loved by the media or even praised just bloody leave the boy alone eh?
  14. Sergio Ramos is regularly complimented for how he tricks referees to improve his teams results, Scott Brown was for years, it’s simply that the big teams (Celtic and Rangers btw, not Aberdeen) don’t like it when it’s not one of their players that are doing it.
  15. Totally agree, the opinion pieces that appear in the media from journalists are absolutely ridiculous, regardless of what you think of him he’s a human being and a young one at that. The way the media portray him is a disgrace and if I was him I would get my arse out of the UK and play somewhere that this won’t happen asap. Will probably do his career the world of good too.
  16. It’s mental that when Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and players at the top level do this they’re clever and “know every trick in the book” according to the media. Even on a smaller scale, Scott Brown was given this credit. However when it’s a young Scottish defender that plays for Hibs it’s disgusting cheating and I’m not talking about the comments from Aberdeen fans in this thread, I mean in the media from people that have a responsibility. If he played for the old firm he wouldn’t have to deal with any of this pish. No one is claiming Porteous isn’t a player who kicks when the referee isn’t looking, wins fouls and uses his brain to get his team an advantage but in any other country or if he played for the old firm that would be viewed as a good thing. And especially when Jim Goodwin himself was that exact type of player the comments he’s made are utterly laughable.
  17. I’ve got a spare ticket for this available for £18 in the East Section F4. Let me know if anyones interested. Edit: SOLD
  18. I often spend my evenings after resounding away victories frantically trying to tell supporters that weren’t involved in the game how amazing my club is to be fair.
  19. Maybe St Mirren could be more competitive if they’d sold more tickets to Celtic fans.
  20. Could this be an all timer in terms of Aberdeen headsgone at the young Midlothian man. The phrase “Stand Free” should be changed to Rent Free.
  21. My only issue with FM22 was that I found it too easy. Hibs and Scotland saves were fun because I had the attachment there but anytime I tried to manage elsewhere (ie I tried Forfar, Tranmere and a few others) it was just too easy, constant back to back promotions without any exceptional players or signings so I got incredibly bored quickly. Ive already ordered the new game because I do enjoy it and it passes the time but hopefully they can make it a bit more realistic in that sense.
  22. Away pubs are usually the Artisan or Middletons, Artisan is just at the top of London road pretty much, probably the nicer of the two establishments. Middletons is the type of bar I like but it’s the type of bar that doesn’t take card and has only Tennents, Best or Carling on Tap etc etc so it’s not for everyone. If you want somewhere that does food Leith Walk has plenty hipster bars as mentioned above, you won’t have to look very hard. The only one to avoid due to rowdy Hibs boiz is The Harp & Castle, the rest of them you’ll get no bother.
  23. A sensible post. Who are you and what have you done with @General dissaray?
