Aye, picks itself. Perhaps the pitch isn't ideal for McGeouch, but we really need him in McGinn's absence.

**JDHibs** · 23-03-2017 03:38 PM

Team pretty much picks itself now. He may bring Fyvie in for Bartley.

However, SDG couldnt have any complaints if he was dropped after his recent performances. Ambrose looked comfortable at RB. Doubt NL will do it though.

This... assuming SDG is injured. Although Lennon would probably have Ambrose and Forster the other way around.

I expect us to get play a 3-5-2 this weekend.

Heavy park, heavy challenges from Houston's hatchets.

1-0 Hibs.

McGeough MUST play in this match. No questions.

Although I suspect Shinnie will play rather than McGeough

***neil7908*** · 24-03-2017 06:33 AM

I will be astounded if Mcgeough starts the game. Don't get me wrong, I think when fit he's one of our best players but we've been treading very delicately so far regarding his injuries and I'd be amazed to see him thrown into this kind of game (bad pitch, Falkirk kicking lumps out of him) after such little game time recently.

So it's going to be us parking the bus and not Falkirk!! Why so defensive??

I also think it will be a 3-5-2. Reasons being: pitch, Houston's hammers, lack of McGinn, lack of Rocky - to protect Laidlaw, solid foundation to build on.

Keep seeing this mentioned about McGeough. But if we don't think about actually playing him the season will be finished.

Play him and if he breaks down he breaks down.

Yep , if he's fit he has to play tomorrow especially with McGinn missing. Otherwise what are we saving him for ? These next two home game are huge in the context of our season.

I think we need Bartley in there to make sure we have the physical presence to man-up to Falkirks dirty tactics, I'd take Fraser out and put Marvin in.

**JDHibs** · 24-03-2017 11:39 AM

Whats the point in getting McGeouch fit for him not to play incase he gets injured?

If we dont play him we will have a midfield of Fyvie and Bartley. None of whom are creative.

**~~Dunbar Hibee~~** · 24-03-2017 11:42 AM

Doubt he's going to drop our captain tbh.

Well in my opinion if he doesn't start he's no good to the club I'm afraid.What is the point in wrapping him in cotton wool if he's never going to play?

Might not 'drop' him but he's rated doubtful.

And based on form, he couldn't grumble if he was left out.

I would normally agree but if Falkirk employ their usual tactic of sitting back and trying to attack on the counter at ER then I wouldn't play him. He's a great stopper but he slows things down too much against teams who sit in like that. Fraser isn't as effective defensively but his drive to get forward would help in that situation. Also both Fyvie and McGeouch like to come and get the ball from the defenders and start play from deep, that doesn't really fit well with Bartley's game either in my opinion.

Didn't know that so my apologies. Also agree with second part.
