Pre-Season friendlies

[sunshine1875]

What would be your preferred Hibs pre-season fixture/venue and why?

Blackpool.

I want to sample this unique atmosphere that can only be created at Bloomfield Road. :devil:

Seriously - Wouldn't say no to a trip to Newcastle. Not far to travel and we all speak the same language.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Raith Rovers - the Rovers Return.

We get in free of charge. What a night that was - thunder lightening floodlight failure freezing drains surging out into the flooded streets.

Fantastic.

[TRC]

Monaco just cause always wanted to go

[gem]

Newcastle away! save me travelling to a game for once :greengrin

[Sir David Gray]

Manchester United at Old Trafford. :thumbsup:

It's not going to happen though so another couple of trips to the north of England would be fantastic. I really enjoyed my time down at Blackburn and Bolton last year.

Maybe Blackpool and Wigan or something like that.

[Pretty Boy]

A few 'sensible' games against lower league opposition for fitness purposes. Always enjoy trips to Dunfermilne so wouldn't mind that, Raith Rovers again maybe, Livingstone for easy access and possible A N other. A decent wee trip to the North of England, Newcastle or Sunderland would be good, posssibly even as far south as an Everton or Blackburn? Then a decent English or European team at ER to finish off the preparations. Aston Villa, Birmingham, Fulham..... someone of that calibre would be really good.

[nairn hibee]

nairn county /friendly in 72/73 won lge cup,again in 91/92 cup again
maybe their is something in the air, usually rain ,but worth a try

[PeterboroHibee]

Raith Rovers - the Rovers Return.

We get in free of charge. What a night that was - thunder lightening floodlight failure freezing drains surging out into the flooded streets.

Fantastic.

Honestly one of the strangest games Ive been at, was so bad the rain was pishing through the stand :faf:. Raith subs were standing on the seats trying to get cover in the dugouts, then that river had flooded at the bottom of the hill.

[we are hibs]

hibs vs real madrid at murrayfield:greengrin

[California-Hibs]

Probably been playing the number plate game too long with the kids lol :greengrin

[hibeeleicester]

we'll see :thumbsup:

:agree:

[HibeeMcGinn1]

Id love a game at home against a large team eg Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool but to be honest we'll get Hartlepool or something again.

Do you think we'll have a game to "open" the new stand?

[SteveHFC]

Preston and Blackpool Away.:dunno:

[zlatan]

Castle Street, about 2 minutes away from DMU.

Been watching this seasons games in Varsity, now known fondly as '**** off Hibs guy' in there :boo hoo:

[Phil MaGlass]

Wish they would come to Holland, play against Groningen(green and white) and ADO Den Haag (green/Yellow).2 sets of great supporters, good stadiums and decent watering holes.
Easy and cheap to travel to from Edinburgh and The Hague:greengrin

[Riordans Boots]

Would take Dublin again in a heart-beat. What a trip! :thumbsup:

Now that was some tour :party::cheers::partyhibb :thumbsup:

[Hibernia Na Eir]

I assume that nothing will be announced until we find out if we are in Europe or not!

What would be your preferred Hibs pre-season fixture/venue and why?

anything but watching Hibs to be honest! Spoil my summer watching that bunch of losers

[Holmesdale Hibs]

Any London team. Arsenal would be best but Fulham\QPR\Charlton more realistic.

[K.Marx]

Do you think we'll have a game to "open" the new stand?

Last I heard the new stand wouldn't be ready till a couple of weeks into the season so it'll most likely be a league game to open it...hopefully against the huns/diet huns :greengrin

[marinello59]

The Tornadoes used to do a pre-season Highland tour. I would love to see Hibs playing at Elgin again.:thumbsup:

[Leith Green]

initials BS? :wink:

[Liamcee1994]

Its not that hard really!:thumbsup:

[Frazerbob]

We used to regularly play Highland tours in the 80's. I always found it hilarious that we were playing a team of mechanics (Forres).

Somebody over the road is saying we are playing Sunderland. No mention if it's home or away though.

[blackpoolhibs]

Blackpool away would be a great trip! :thumbsup:

:agree::greengrin

[crewetollhibee]

Kusadasi Ladies Eleven. Anytime between the 1st - 14th July would be fine. :devil:

Was trying to be a tad realistic! Anyway, I don't think I'd be able to see a lot of my friends for a while after getting a pumping from Liverpool...

[SteveHFC]

It isn't i would love hibs to play at anfield one day.

[hibsboy90]

Just realised you were saying 'ideal' venues, not places you had heard may be happening.

[Dashing Bob S]

Anywhere in England would be fine, as it suits everyone.

1. The nutters get to mob up and cause bother.

2. The pompous types get to disdain the nutters and claim the moral high ground.

3. The rest of get to enjoy the familiarity of another deja vu debate.

[NAE NOOKIE]

Would love a game at Goodison

Me too. My brother lives in Crosby, was based there for the Bolton game.

Best away support I have been in for ages at that game, would hope we could do the same at Goodison.

Mind you I was there for the Spurs game. I have a soft spot for Everton, but Goodison is a dump.

[Phil MaGlass]

Mibbe Holland :thumbsup:or Austria

He also mentions Wales and Ireland too, that would be good.:thumbsup:

[SteveHFC]

Mibbe Wales or Ireland:thumbsup:

[Ritchie]

Would take Dublin again in a heart-beat. What a trip! :thumbsup:

oooo yes!!! :agree:

that was a ball, plus we need to get used to Dublin since we'll be back there this time next year partaking in a certain final! :cool2:

[HibeeMG]

Mibbe Holland :thumbsup:or Austria

http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/hibernianfc/-Hibs-boss-John-Hughes.6297331.jp

I like his quote:

"I think any games will be away from home although I'd also imagine we'll have plenty of bounce matches down at East Mains which, again, is the beauty of having our own training centre available whenever we need it."

Probably wasn't a dig at the Jambos but I'm taking it as one! Nice one John.

[hibsboy90]

Would be nice to get down to these 'bounce games' since not all of us can get to Wales/Ireland/Austria/Holland......

Even if it was at meadowbank or something.

[Phil D. Rolls]

It isn't i would love hibs to play at anfield one day.

They already have, different era, but Liverpool very much on the same level as us at the time.

[SteveHFC]

I know hibs have played liverpool before.

[Scouse Hibee]

Anfield:wink:

Hmmmm who would I support...............................it's a no brainer LIVERPOOL of course :agree:.

It would be funny if the Pool came to ER in the Europa cup, I would have to try and get a ticket in the away end or sit on my hands in my own seat in the West.:greengrin

[Cameron1875]

Away ye go how many trophies have liverpool won, what difference does one europa league make:wink:. If hibs beat liverpool it would be something none of us would ever forget so gotta support the hibees:notworthy:

Nah....... Born and Bred wins every time over Married and Led :greengrin.

[newmarket_hibbee]

Toronto FC, Montreal, but the new Hibs strip might clash with Montreals pink jerseys, maybe a game against the national side.......no foot and mouth excuses this time round........I would make the long trip..:wink:

[persevere1875]

The Tornadoes used to do a pre-season Highland tour. I would love to see Hibs playing at Elgin again.:thumbsup:


Remember watching Hibs at Elgin, not the best facilities in the world, also remember watchin them at Deveronvale when Des Bremner did a jump over some Deveronvale player trying to tie his laces in the middle of the game, those were the days.....

[Phil D. Rolls]

I know hibs have played liverpool before.

Sure, but that's not the way your post read. :yawn:

[MacBean]

BS - Barcelona Select :agree:
GT - German Team :cool2:

Get away, I've been a Bolton fan all my life but was in the away end at the Reebok last year and didn't regret a second of it, though I must admit it was a bit weird looking over to the Bolton end and seeing a raft of people that I recognised!

If this Leicester rumour is true then I'd be happy with that, but I think Huddersfield away would be a good test and a good day out.

[essexhibee]

Anywhere dannn safff (down south) would be good for me!!

Norwich, Ipswich, Southampton would be good shouts. Would love a trip down to West Ham aswell! :thumbsup:

[seanraff07]

Haha i just heard Hearts have Millwall away from home for someone's testimonial on the 29th July, unlucky for them.

[Feed McGraw]

Sydney. Used to live there.

[An Leargaidh]

What would be your preferred Hibs pre-season fixture/venue and why?

My ideal pre-season friendly would be away against Largs Thistle.
Thistle are in the SJFA Stagecoach Superleague Premier League, the same as Irvine Meadow who we had a very interesting game against back in January. Irvine showed a lot of determination and skill as evidenced by the 3-0 final score.

Largs Thistle's ground at Barrfields in Largs town also just happens to be 500 metres from my house... :greengrin

[Monts]

Vancouver White caps please :greengrin
