I would have thought Yogi would have been near the starting line up for Thursday for today's game.
Seemingly not!

I thought they were playing the game at the Gelredome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GelreDome)? If not, where is it being held?

[Keith_M]

I take it Mr "SolShinesOutMaarse" hasn't turned up yet. Any news on when he plans to honour the club with his presence?

I'm surprised by this too

[matty_f]

At the Polis Direct Stadion, in Driel.

SSN saying we'll hold talks with him next week.

Presumably thats dependant on him not being too tired to talk though after he played 400 games for us last season.

Maribor have people at the game. Hughes won't want to give anything away.

:tee hee:

[Billy Whizz]

Or maybe one or two injuries as suggested on another thread.

[Mikey]

"I'm aware that Maribor are over here watching us and everything has been done for a reason. The heart rate monitors that the players wear every day in games and in training have told us that one or two of them are starting to fatigue.

"So we have taken that into account. But this is a game that we are looking forward to."

I would have thought that making sure our team is properly prepared would have taken priority over that.

I trust Yogi though so hopefully he knows what he's doing, i'd have prefered us to treat this one like a competitive game though considering they've had 1 (possibly 2) league games and a 2 europa league games already this season and all we've had his low key bounce games.

You answered my question before i even asked it, brilliant :greengrin

[HibbyAndy]

[Mikey]

The players aren't playing in the numbers shown on the team sheet.

All for the benefit of the spies from Maribor no doubt!

[Mikey]

Updates will be thin on the ground. We've got someone at the game though so we'll get goal updates at least.

According to the 'offical' site, the goal was scored by their no.40 Roy De Ruiter, (sounds like a Butlins holiday camp comedian) :greengrin

[Toaods]

The ball went over the white line below the crossbow and between the 2 posts, Hibs players raised their arms aloft and shouted GOAL..!!

[monktonharp]

There is one Derek Riordan - FACT - END OF! :thumbsup:

GET HIM SIGNED UP LONG TERM HIBS FFS! :agree:seriously have been saying this for a long time,wonder what the management/boardroom think about his value.........to Hibernian fc,never mind in monetary value at this moment in time,if sold

Sure you're no thinking about a crossbar or have we signed William Tell?. :wink:

He's PRICELESS! :agree: Living the dream and banging them in for THE team! He's the man! :thumbsup:

[Mikey]

1-1, full time.

[silverhibee]

How long to go.

[Part/Time Supporter]

Sure you're no thinking about a crossbar or have we signed William Tell?. :wink:

Switzerland should have picked him for the World Cup, no wonder they struggled for goals without him.

:greengrin

[Greenblood70]

There would probably be a school of thought from some people that Riordan shouldn't start in the away leg of the Euro games. It would be madness imo not to play him..if anyone is capable of getting a goal out of nothing it's him.

Decent result today tho' and we've accounted ourselves reasonably well all things considered over there.

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

Sure you're no thinking about a crossbar or have we signed William Tell?. :wink:The crossbar canibal?

[zlatan]

Are the players coming back to Edinburgh before flying out to Slovenia or are we just training in Holland for another few days before making the shorter trip?

[Wheat Hound]

Lots of positive signs as to us keeping deek long term:
1. Made captain against den haag
2. rejoined the squad in holland day after birth of his lassie.
3. Praised to hilt by yogi for above, esp in comparison with bamba.
4. Playung great and scoring goals galore.

[Toaods]

Bloody predictive text..! William Tell couldnae strike from 30 yards the way Deek can...

[blackpoolhibs]

I'm not 100% sure he does enough? Sure he can score lots of goals, some are wonderful to watch, but is that enough?

[nickwhibs]

Would take this scoreline on Thursday :agree:. In fact, would take any scoreline that involves a Hibs goal for the fans at the game to celebrate :thumbsup:- and of course with us still being in the tie!

[steakbake]

I'm not 100% sure he does enough? Sure he can score lots of goals, some are wonderful to watch, but is that enough?

Possibly paraphrasing from every football commentator since the beginning of time, it's goals what win matches.

[fife hfc]

Good result considering the side we put out. None of the back four will play on Thursday ( Wotherspoon likely into midfield). Miller and Mcbride to come in to the midfield and fringe players got a good run out, successful workout.

Stack to me has to start on Thursday even if he played his part in their goal today. He is the best communicator and organizer in the back five and we need that as Hogg or Murray do not fill this role imho.

Play him upfront or a free role in behind Nish or stokes not in midfield as we expose Murray when he plays in that position (not deeks fault its just not his strong point). we may well find that our best chance of a goal is from a set piece and therefore we need our dead ball specialist on the pitch.

Looking at the squad list for Vitesse it wasn't their strongest side either. The two Vitesse players mentioned in the half-time report on the official site are youngsters.

Captain as well for today. :thumbsup:

[Sas_The_Hibby]

And you call that a goal!! - tell that to Sepp Blatter! :wink:

[Westie1875]

Again? This is becoming a regular occurrence :greengrin

[Eaststand]

Maribor have people at the game. Hughes won't want to give anything away.

:top marksspot on and Yogi would have been daft to give Maribor any clue about how we play and who does what for the team ....keeping the spies guessing is fine by me :agree:

[Jonnyboy]

Bit late in the day to tell you (am not long back from the match) but Deeks took a free kick from about 20 yards and it hit the wall. As it flew back towards him he leathered a cracking shot through a ruck of players and into the net

Quality stuff as usual :thumbsup:

[Kaiser1962]

I'm not 100% sure he does enough? Sure he can score lots of goals, some are wonderful to watch, but is that enough?

Seriously????

that's where his deficiencies shine through though JC...did he run to meet the return ball or just sort of dawdle towards it...:wink:

I think this was a mistake.
Now the Maribor spies will know he can do this.:confused:

Best ignored chaps. He may get bored if people stop biting.

[ballengeich]

I think this was a mistake.
Now the Maribor spies will know he can do this.:confused:

Aye, but when they realise that they can't stop him doing it again they'll probably tell their team not to bother turning up. A yogi masterstroke:wink:.

So does he get an assist for his own goal as well. :greengrin

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

Two defeats, a win and a draw. Not bad playing 4 top division Dutch teams in a week. Apart from the game against Herclares, the other results would be decent/good away results in Europe.

I think it's been great preperation or the European games. :thumbsup:

I agree mate , good preperation for what i think will be a very hard game against a team team who should be sharper than us at this stage of the new season. I would be happy with a narrow defeat if we could get a goal over there. C'mon Hibs , you can do this and set up a nice big tie in the next round:thumbsup:

[Steve-O]

Naebody worried that the only way we are scoring is via Riordan free kicks either directly or indirectly? :confused:

Just to chuck in a bit of negativity, likes :wink:

Seeing as goals from free kicks are not less valuable than any other kind of goal, no, I'm not worried.:greengrin
