Hogg scores for caley

[HFC07]

Unbelievable the man has hardly scored a goal for Hibs, he plays one game for caley and gets on the score sheet. Even bamba is playing well now he is away.

[Saorsa]

It's his defending that worried me. He may have scored one, how many will he sell though?

[Jim44]

To be fair to Hogg, his his poor run had a lot to do with the general malaise of the team and he was far from the only one who was going through a hard time. The guy is now out of the Easter Road nightmare and will probablydo a job for ICT in a more relaxed environment.

Yup, he was good for us far more often than he wasn't, not having a consistent partner like he had with Jones, a loss form, being handed the captaincy at the wrong time and having fans on his back at every opportunity was the end for him with us, but he will be a solid player for Caley make no mistake.

[SRHibs]

Let's not forget that this is the guy that won POTY for us not so long ago. There's a half-decent player there, but his confidence was shot with us, so I think him leaving was probably the best for both parties.

Good on him, hope he does well just not against us

Me too, he had a bad run at the end along with everyone else but he deserves to do well

Have we not had an "all the best Hogg" thread already?

:faf: Bamba is playing just the same as he did for Hibs

[RickyS]

he will have the last laugh in the games up there, thats for sure. what is it, 2 goals and 1 point in 5 years?

[NaeTechnoHibby]

Never hid or shirked and actually showed his passion when we were bad, okay some fans didnae like it, but at least he had the bools to stand up to the boo-boys... its called passion and the lad had it and I wish him well :agree:

I think I read he actually started his career as a striker :dunno:

After the Well game when he scored two headed goals I wished we had tried to use him further upfield ... but ho hum...our loss is Caley's gain :violin:

[Jim44]

I wonder if Hogg will have a quiet word in Rooney's ear at some point and dissuade him from heading ER way. :greengrin.

[Edinburgh Green]

Pretty sure he was in most of hibs line ups that lost up there so frequently.

[hibeeleicester]

Always thought this guy would get a testimonial at Hibs. He was a good player, with the right attitude and not a bad word to say about the club. Shame the team let him down.

Why?

We play Killie, Don't know who ICT play.

Its amazing what a couple of fish suppers at Auchterarder can do. Mon the Fish :flag:

Agree totally. And good luck to the boy. A top professional who I'm sure will do well there.

:agree::agree:

Wish him well.

[down-the-slope]

Always liked hoggy for his attitude and a good level of performance in the early years...crap keepers and revolving partners / no defensive midfielder latterly made him look poorer than he is...


He will do well up there...would be ironic if he added SC medal to his CIS one (which no amount of historical revision can take away from him)

[The Harp]

Good to see Hoggy settle in well, score a debut goal, get awarded Man of the Match ... and then promptly let the Morton guy in to grab a consolation. :rolleyes: Looks like he'll carry on doing what he did wi' us.
Hope the move does him good.

[davym7062]

lets hope he plays as well for ICT as he did for hibs. MURDER

[Craig_HFC]

Shame the fans had such short memories with him.

Precisely.

[YetholmHibee]

Hogg maybe scored a goal but from the highlights of the game, his defending was poor.

Just backs up the reason why Hibs released him . . . . same for Bamba too!

:agree:

:agree:

It was his Caley debut so I reckon he can't be judged wether he scores or defends poorly.

It's a nonsense to say this boy can't defend. This is the guy who held his own against the giant target men of the scottish game when he first came here. He seemed to outjump them regularly and win balls that he had no right to. He also used to be calm, collected and knew what to do with the ball when it was at his feet.

He's went downhill rapidly and there's two explainations. He's either peaked too early and somehow "grown out" of being the player he was or he's a confidence player who doesn't do well whenever certain situations are negative.

I know which one I think applies.

[Toaods]

He was freed....says it all.

[moggie]

Is this the same Hogg who used to have to let the ball bounce before heading it?:rolleyes:

[TrinityHibs]

Unbelievable the man has hardly scored a goal for Hibs, he plays one game for caley and gets on the score sheet. Even bamba is playing well now he is away.

Still third top scorer for Hibs this year. Goals per game maybe even top. Statistics huh!!

[Judas Iscariot]

He's pish

[blackpoolhibs]

He's a free agent in the summer, lets get him on a pre contract. We didn't get Webster, surely he's the next best thing?:whistle:

Word has it he was offered a new contract but wouldnt sign it..

Not what I heard and we both can't be right.

Some nasty comments on this thread, Hogg may not have always been fantastic with us but he was a real professional and tried his heart out every game. I personally wish him all the best and hope he does well at ICT.

[Iggy Pope]

To be fair to Hoggy, he must still bear someting of a grudge against Morton though..........................

[Dunbar Hibee]

Whats the point in slagging him off when he's moved to a new club? He has made a good start at ICT and hope he continues.

Spot on.

People can say what they like about Hogg but he was a Hibs POTY, he has a cup winners medal in his pocket from his time at the club (not too many of our ex players can say that) and he always gave 100% and was a true professional.

He had a fantastic attitude and i'm sure that was a big part in him being made captain (although it was the wrong decision). People forget there was a spell when he was playing very, very well for us. His form dipped big time around about the time he tried to play through a concussion after a pretty serious head knock (who's going to be first to accuse him of a lack of commitment?). His confidence never really recovered after the poor spell but he still cared, still gave 100% and i wish him all the best.

If people don't rate him then fine -your opinion- but to brand him 'pish' or talk the guy down isn't really necessary and a bit out of order IMO.

[Billy Whizz]

Why?

We play Killie, Don't know who ICT play.

Sorry, got my fixtures mixed up!!

[Toaods]

Dave Beaumont has a medal too.

[500miles]

In his time at Hibs, he has a CIS cup winners medal, played in Europe for us on 2 seperate occassions, captaining us to Europe on the second, and a POTY award. Furthermore he and Jones formed the most miserly defensive partnership in the SPL (outside the OF) under Mixu, and he and Bamba were central to our best defensive run in decades.

Before when he left, he was low on confidence after a prolonged period of niggling injury and poor form, and the boo boys couldn't wait to destroy him. I hope he does very well at Caley, and if he scored against us, he would have every right to gloat.

Really chuffed for Chris. I wish him all the luck in the world and will continue to follow his career closely. I'm convinced that in Terry Butcher, he has a manager he will thrive under. A gentleman, a fantastic professional, and a far better player than many are willing to give him credit for. He'll do absolutely fine for Inverness.

[RIP]

Chris Hogg

Part of a great defensive partnership with Rob Jones who were the best defensive paring outwith the SPL in their day. Put up with some very shakey goalies and no midfield until recently

Still a young bloke - wouldn't be surprised to see him end up in Glasgow or the Championship one day

Best of luck Chris

[Shrekko]

He's pish

Sums up the pathetic world we live in these days. Cheap, no clever and nae need.

Whatever anyone thinks of his later form or him as a player in general,he deserves a wee bit more respect than he's getting from some on here. The reasons have already been stated.

[Holmesdale Hibs]

Great professional and by most accounts a really decent guy. He'll make the perfect captain for a lower division team where he's good enough to start every week. I wish him all the best.
