The Hampden Derby, round 4

***Diclonius*** · 16-04-2022 10:44 AM

Good news everyone! We sold slightly more tickets in the middle as I'm not right up against the Hertz as previously feared.

Remember the reaction when we all saw Conrad at the Dundee Utd semi.
Get behind the team.

**DJ HIBBY** · 16-04-2022 10:47 AM

2 attacking players out of 11, embarrassing!

Embaressing crowd, embaressing interviews, embrassing attacking players

Are you perpetually red?

Change the record.

Sorry couldn't resist.

Gutted I couldn't get up for this game, if my personal hampden record is anything to go by its a good thing for us though 😁

Surprised to see Scott starting, huge chance for both him and Maloney to change perceptions here

Get into them Hibs, they're no world beaters, we can do this

You know what, why big change it.

We’ve won one in thirteen in the league, something had to change.

He’s got stick for not changing it, well today he has

Think Doig and Jasper are unfortunate though

I agree. Folk have been pishing themselves saying that Shaun won't make things, Melkerson and Jasper are just wee boys being overplayed etc. The players dropped have contributed to some poor performances. After Tynie things needed to change. And he's done so.

***overdrive*** · 16-04-2022 10:52 AM

The SFA are anti Edinburgh idiots. Just put up a stat on the big screen that we have been in 36 Scottish Cup Finals, the last being in 2016…erm… last season?

**Swedish hibee** · 16-04-2022 10:54 AM

Prove me wrong Scott please.

Least DJ Hibby might be able to mix it with that lot.

***Carheenlea*** · 16-04-2022 10:54 AM

After getting a bit of a shock with starting line up it does look a bit more robust, with guys in there who know the score and it’s certainly more solid looking defensively. The stage is set for Scott to prove his worth (with delivery from Henderson..)

**JennaFletcher** · 16-04-2022 10:54 AM

Henderson is up front with Scott

Hibs playing 3-5-2 with Stevenson central mid

**Smartie** · 16-04-2022 10:58 AM

This is the maddest, boldest selection I can ever remember a Hibs manager making.

In fairness to him - he needed to change it. And there were all sorts of safe options he could have taken - which he has not taken - and he's staked his own reputation and future on it.

He feels like he's seen something, he's seen problems that needed fixed and has made a courageous attempt to address those issues.

That's as positive, polite and dignified as I can be so I'll leave it there.

**The Captain....** · 16-04-2022 10:59 AM

Just have to get on with it now..it looks like we're hoping to keep it compact and tight..slightly worried about inviting pressure.

How we actually score a goal I don't know tbh..hope springs eternal tho. I'm probably as calm as I've ever been for a Derby.. I'm not expecting much so the nerves just aren't there.

If we go in at halftime 0-0 we have a big chance.

**Coco Bryce** · 16-04-2022 11:00 AM

That team is horrific.

***wookie70*** · 16-04-2022 11:00 AM

Hope James Scott works his arse off for Maloney's sake. Big call but we don't really have any fit and able strikers. Like that Stevenson is back. McGinn if for allows Clarke and Cadden to play wide which is vital.

***SteveHFC*** · 16-04-2022 11:01 AM

Scott just missed a sitter in warm up

***WhileTheChief..*** · 16-04-2022 11:01 AM

A Jack Ross team more or less.

Back to basics?!

🤣🤣🤣

***Callum_62*** · 16-04-2022 11:05 AM

Maloney saying he wanted more strength and power in the 9 position

Porto does start up front

Maloney says Melkerson will also have a huge say in this game when tempo changes

***Scorrie*** · 16-04-2022 11:07 AM

That team lineup is so left field it might just work. Scott has no excuse now, go for it

Beat me to it, getting totally fed up with some of the chat on here.

**CmoantheHibs** · 16-04-2022 11:09 AM

Lets do this Hibs.

***sleeping giant*** · 16-04-2022 11:13 AM

Cmin Hibs. Quick goal to settle the nerves.

Why have most folk gone for the Scott will be ***** angle. What about the Scott will have a stormer and play like he did at Motherwell view. With what we have available I don't think it's a terrible choice. We need to win individual battles and I'm not sure Melkerson would have done that today. I'm actually OK with that line up

Scott is a million pound player. That's what Hull paid.
