Thenorthernlight Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Just now, Thenorthernlight said: Hibs have already played against 10 men FOUR teams in seven matches I think it is. (9 men in one of those games). I don’t rate them, and let’s face it, how often have Hibs finished about Aberdeen in the last 10-12 years? They’ve possibly been relegated as many times in that period. The league will be as wide open below 2nd (& just as shite from what I’ve seen) as last year. Aberdeen could be anywhere from 3rd to about 8th. Four times I meant ^^^^^ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10menwent2mow Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 We were utter utter muck yesterday. Only people getting pass marks from me were Hayes, McCrorie, Ramadani and Roos, guess Richardson didn't do much wrong but the rest were absolutely woeful. Polvara is an absolute imposter, Jack Gurr esque. A pretty shocking decision that has completely turned the game, there was barely a tackle put in the whole game yet we saw 8 cautions, however the capitulation was worrying. It was a case of sitting there and counting the minutes until Hibs scored and I actually found myself feeling relieved when they got the 3rd so I could f**k off back to the pub. The redeeming thing thus far is that the rest of the league seems completely fucking hopeless as well. 46pts qualified for Europe last season and it could be something similar this year. Just have to make sure we are the right side of the line after 33 games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) I don't feel too disheartened by yesterday, even though I felt pretty deflated at the game. You never know, but I don't think it's very likely that we were losing that game if the referee gets the Scales decision correct at 1-0, despite never playing particularly well. We were undoubtedly poor with ten men, but we were third going into yesterday and it is still a very new group of players. As said above, I think the early indications are that this isn't a particularly strong league again and hopefully some relatively incremental improvements on last season could see us get closer to where we want to be. I'm not too bothered about Goodwin's comments post-match, either. I'm sure his private analysis of the game will be different to his public one. He has taken a bit of the heat off Scales and the players, which is fine. He will know that he can only do that so often, though.

KingswellsRed Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 There were red flags for me last season with Goodwin’s failure to have any positive impact. A bit too early to be sacking him yet but if we are not in the European places come the world cup, I would like to see him removed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Same argument could be made in reverse for the Hibs' result, I suppose.) Need to take points off Hibs and Motherwell (especially at home) as they are top 6 rivals. Update: St Mirren 3rd, Livingston 4th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don exotic Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 So are we going to play Jack Milne against Killie and the damned united? Hopefully he is going to be the the next Mckenna. Given he converted from midfield he should be good with the ball at his feet. We need mcrorrie in midfield. Goodwin now needs to follow through on his CB gamble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayes Assuming Barron is fit to start, try & get 60 minutes out of him. McCrorie in defence would leave us really light in midfield so give Milne his chance. MacKenzie at left centre half is another outside shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Today's result from Fir Park makes our home defeat from Motherwell even more unacceptable. Between that and yesterday's performance, 4 points thrown away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be able to prepare him and Stewart this week for Killie. He should have blooded him at the end of the games we rompted against 10 men. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I maybe didn't phrase it well, if we have ambitions on finishing third, we have thrown away 4 points. If we were comprehensively outplayed at home by a side who have just been stuffed 3-0 at home it's going to be a long season. And if we were comprehensively outplayed after scoring so early and while we still had 11 men on the park by a side that are nothing special that doesn't auger well either. Losing is one thing. Comprehensively outplayed is another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
