*** Hibs vs Maribor ***

[jacomo]

Penalty........................aaaaaaaaand we're..............out.

Where you been? We went out last week.

[Basildon Hibs]

Penalty........................aaaaaaaaand we're..............out.

And hopefully Yogi is too.... :bye:

[Hibby 2005]

Petrie's office should be an interesting place tomorrow.

[MrSmith]

defenders for attackers eh!!? scoreline is going to get worse....

desperate tactics from a desperate man...

[Kaiser_Sauzee]

Co commentator could be sat in the electric chair and find a positive.

[Hal Jordan]

Aye, well as a combination of Hibs being *****, and a pish quality stream that I paid 6 quid for, I can safely say this'll be the last time I'll be watching for the forseeable future.

Do you think Petrie will pay off Hughes?

Who comes in to replace him?

How much will we have to pay in compensation?

It won't happen IMHO

[Wull]

now HI gone completely, just aboot sums up the nite

[Haymaker]

1-3

Ditto! Just lost the stream, dunno if thats a good thing! :wink: Still £6 wasted tho!:grr:

[Liberal Hibby]

Petrie's office should be an interesting place tomorrow.

Why?

It's clear we've been beaten by a better team (as were Celtc last night). What will matter is how we compete in the SPL. Ironically if we'd finished fifth we'd have had the better draw (ala Motherwell)

Hughes will have at least this season (I hope) to build. We simply cannot keep sacking managers every other season because a few vocal fans have no patience.

[Spudster]

1-6 (agg)

[Hibby 2005]

Murray & Hart off Galbraith & Spoony on

Wow! Yogi finally shows some adventure!

[Betty Boop]

1-3

Jeezo ! :bitchy:

[euro Hibby]

judge him against good quality scottish opposition........

[cabbageandribs1875]

Why the board agreed to pump millions into a new stand, and completely ignore the fact that the squad we have is abysmal, is completely beyond me. Let's face facts, a new
stand could've waited, it's not a priority and it most definitely isn't needed at this moment in time. The squad however NEEDS attention, and lots of it.



ah that old chestnut, we HAD to build a new stand :rolleyes:

celtic won last night

if you work out your manager can't manage it is better to sack the guy before he causes any more damage...or in our case wastes any more opportunities.

[MrSmith]

1-6 (agg)

and its no finished yet... dare I suggest Ecky boy Miller??

[xyz23jc]

Ditto! Just lost the stream, dunno if thats a good thing! :wink: Still £6 wasted tho!:grr:

Just seen the scoreline...It is!:grr:

[sauzee1966]

first 30mins...great.... then a slide show...frozen screen and eventually...no sound. RIP OFF!!




Penalty........................aaaaaaaaand we're..............out.

[MountcastleHibs]

Nae urgency, Nae width, no clear number one keeper, a manager who's too arrogant/clueless to change things and a team with no passion. Being taught how to really play football here tonight. Please tell me he's taking the mick with those changes coming 20 minutes too late.

[ScottB]

judge him against good quality scottish opposition........

Like he had for the second half of last season?

Times up for Hughes. If he is as big a 'Hibs man' as he claims hopefully he will see it himself and fall on his sword.

[euro Hibby]

quality scottish opposition ironic statement

[Moulin Yarns]

Either that or flirt with relegation;I'm sure it'll beYogi that goes......:wink:

Would you like to answer one of my questions?

Petrie will not pay Hughes off IMHO

Who will come in to replace Hughes?

If they are already in a job then compensation needs to be paid, which Petrie will not want IMHO

[PeeJay]

What's the score now then...?

[Stenny]

What's the score now then...?

nae idea!!! getting pumped tho

Oh I see, so well just forget the 1st part of the season when we are the top of the league at one point!! Am sure you were thinking different then.

Is there any managers left for us?

Ahm sure he means Ross County likes

But what - exactly - has that got to do with tonight? Or any day or night since Feb? Two wins in 22 games....

And euro ties are decided home and away and Celtc lost.

The problem we've had is that we never allow mangers to have a bad patch and never give them the opportunity to build a side. The idea that a club that has qualified for Europe twice in a decade should somehow sack a manger for failing to beat a side from a country that is clearly a cut above Scotland and has a much better recent pedigree is utter nonsense.

We are no longer world beaters either at a club or country level and need to temper our ambition accordingly.

I don't know who would replace Hughes;someone who possibly knows what they're doing...?

And it doesn't have to be someone who is already in employment, does it>?:wink:

[Northern Hibby]

What happened to HI first time & last :grr:

[hibsmum]

just seen the score been working what the hell is going on:confused:

[SRHibs]

Yogi isn't having a 'bad patch'; we've been consistently bad for the last 6 months.

[Moulin Yarns]

While we did have a great run under Yogi early on, a lot of it was good luck, we played poorly in quite a few of those games too, but the luck was with us. Since January Yogis 'system' has been found out, we've won like 2 games since then. Utterly unacceptable form if you ask me.

And despite signing new players, we are yet to see any attempt on his part to correct his faults; poor tactics and poor substitutions.

[Northfield Hibby]

But what - exactly - has that got to do with tonight? Or any day or night since Feb? Two wins in 22 games....




I was answering a question which didn't involve tonight's game ok?

You and others want him out, I think the board should back him this season, which they haven't!!!

[MrSmith]

Yogi isn't having a 'bad patch'; we've been consistently bad for the last 6 months.

In truth it is 8 months cause even when we are not playing were are still spineless keek!!!

[PhoenixHibee]

I'd like to know myself Hibsmum, no-one is reporting, too busy fighting.

[Steve-O]

Yogi isn't having a 'bad patch'; we've been consistently bad for the last 6 months.

Yogi's reign of pish is the 'bad patch'...for Hibs!

Who actually cares now if we had a lucky run a year ago?

YOGI :bye::bye::bye:

spot on

however our form in 2010 is unacceptable

[Gerard]

It would be easy to sack John Hughes and his management team. Hibs are a team that needs a manager that has a winning attitude and this has to happen now. I do not know if JH and his MT can create that winning mentality. John Hughes is a great guy and cares about Hibs. I am sure that both games will hurt him.

Any team can lose games but the point is what can you learn from a defeat. If our team learns anything from this defeat then that is acceptable. Maribor are a decent team that has a good recent record in Europe. Our recent record in Europe is poor compared to Maribor.

I hope John Hughes can enjoy succes with Hibs but the longer that we lose games the less likely I can see this happening.

mixu is the only manager we've binned because the football has been unbearable. yogi will be the next or we will fail to capitalise on the good investments we have made.

[Richard Scott]

Would someone care to enlighten me as to what exactly John Hughes is smiling at? :-/

[SunshineOnLeith]

We're gonna win 6-2. :notworthy:

I of course meant lose on aggregate.

[hibsmum]

I'd like to know myself Hibsmum, no-one is reporting, too busy fighting.

can sort of understand why this is a bit embarassing don't seem to have any fight god help us when the season starts:yawn:

[Haymaker]

2-3 ft

[hibeemikey21]

Is that 2 for De Graff tonight then? It is according to the BBC anyway. Thats a sliver of decent news I suppose..........

[Richard Scott]

Investments? I take it you're refering to the new stand? Because there's no decent investment to be seen anywhere else.

[(((Fergus)))]

new stand
new training centre
higher wages (stokes, miller, riordan, ...?)

we need a serious, professional manager to capitalise on those resources. the most important part of the jigsaw is missing

[JohnScott]

There's been some **** on here tonight and your's is one of the worst!
Havn't backed Yogi!? They gave him the job in the first place. They've still financed this years squad WITHOUT any big money coming in from the sale of players like Bambi. Get a grip man! :grr:

[Hibby 2005]

I couldn't give a flying **** what you think, or what you think of my opinion:yawn:

Yer having a laugh, any money that comes into this club through player sales never goes to the manager, get a grip! We have got a spanking new stadium, a beautiful and gorgeous training centre and the debt under control, now let's see the manager get properly backed!

[Richard Scott]

I see your point. I was saying in an earlier post today that a new east stand isn't a priority at this moment in time. Why the board can't realise that the playing staff and management need urgent attention is beyond me. The new stand isn't needed right now, nor is it an immediate priority. We didn't NEED it. We need a decent squad on the pitch and a manager in the dugout who knows what football actually is. And I see your point about the increase in wages, but it's not enough. Clearly.

Your joking right?

Hughes has had more cash to spend than any manager since McLeish! Miller is rumoured to be on £7k a week for christ sake!

Off the top of my head Hughes has signed... Stack, Smith, Brown, Hart, Stephens, McBride, Cregg, Miller, De Graaf, Stokes and had Gow in on loan... Could be more, but there's 11 already. How much more cash should he get exactly?

[jacomo]

You can't be serious. Obviously Hibs' budget will always be limited but the board have backed Yogi plenty. Aside from the OF, who's brought in more players since last summer?

Was on the other recent thread talking about player wages, I'm not convinced myself, but there seemed to be some agreement on that figure.

Certainly, we are spending much more on players now than at any time since Mcleish, and he has brought in a lot of players. Your point about him not being backed is nonsense.

I agree we are spending more, as are the majority of sides. The problem I've got is that I don't think he's been backed properly this season. He might still bring a couple of players in before the end of the month, and if he does, and still fails, then I've got a difficult job in trying to keep backing him.:wink:

Yogi stated before the season that he wanted to bring in more experience and strength into the side, and I don't think that's happened yet. We are desperate for another centre half and a strong midfielder and fingers crossed he can get them in.
