As I've now got a 100% record for Match Updates this season, I thought I'd put it on the line for today's game. :greengrin

Taking account of the 25 man squad, the five injuries and the third keeper (Antell), that means that only David Crawford from the current squad is not listed today.

Perhaps he's injured as well?

Agree, thats why i am sitting in the house listening to this game and not at ER, if i want to watch Sunderland play i will go down and watch them play a competitive game in the EPL and not in a friendly against Hibs when wee should have been playing St Johnstone in an SPL game. :aok:

Exactly, this guy is even worse than the one who was doing the St Johnstone Hibs game at the end of last season!

[hibeedonald]

While the commentators seem very critical about Hibs, they are actually telling us what's happening in the game, which is more than the usual BBC on-line coverage of SPL games where you can go 3 minutes without a mention of what's actually happening on the pitch.

[BullbreedHFC]

what a total erse of a commentator on - north east sport - MON THE CABBAGE

[Moulin Yarns]

2 quick corners for Hibs. but these English commentators are really doing my nut in.

Nothing good to say about Hibs, or Scottish football in general. going on about the small home crowd. Do they really think we can be arsed about a friendly against third rate English opposition.

[silverhibee]

Aye Sunderland are such a huge draw..................

Who ever arranged this game needs to have a word with themself, Simple, Hibs should be playing St Johnstone today and not some crappy friendly.

[zlatan]

Agree, thats why i am sitting in the house listening to this game and not at ER, if i want to watch Sunderland play i will go down and watch them play a competitive game in the EPL and not in a friendly against Hibs when wee should have been playing St Johnstone in an SPL game. :aok:

Agreed.

Let's cuddle.

[DAVE1875]

I'm now hoping that ****derland score so these commentators go quiet for ages when they cream their drawers

[Dinkydoo]

The risk of further injury to first team players is starting to worry me a bit. We've simply not got the squad numbers to be playing a "friendly" once the season has started.

[down-the-slope]

Team playing well - OConner beating brown in air every time De Graff playing well

[Houchy]

Jeez they are even moaning about our kits:rolleyes:

[DAVE1875]

"Don't know why Hibs are wearing black today" - Geordie commentator

Maybe to give the Hibs fans a glimpse of the away kit, maybe we were supposed to wear this kit in a game against St. Johnstone but WAIT... We had to re-arrange that cause we have today's friendly against ****derland

[Mikey]

Not a bad first half from our guys. It's never going to be out first XI but the defensive unit has kept a strong Sunderland team in check.

Looking forward to seeing Ivan run at them in the second half.

[JohnScott]

Don't rise to it guys. Yould be hyper too if you lived in Sunderland.

[DAVE1875]

More mocking "Anfield will be fuller, there will be an atmosphere." OFF!!

Have they even mentioned anything positive about Hibs?

"There's been three chances" - strange I could've sworn we tested they're goalie and got a corner?

[smurf]

Strong defensive performance from Hibs. Palsson, Stephens, Hanlon & Booth all very impressive as a unit. Stephens in particular.

[SaulGoodman]

I never used to mind Sunderland as a team. Now I hope they get absolutely ****ed every game this season :agree:

[hongkonghibee]

Ian Murray MOM first half - really got stuck in to the Sunderland midfielders. Proving from the first three games he still has the energy, passing ability and commitment to hold down a place in our midfield this season. Im impressed with the organisation of the team this year. I think CC is good at that. Still need a flair player next to Murray IMO

[zlatan]

Go for it. :thumbsup:

*goes in with the finger*

[down-the-slope]

Quite pleased at first half - thought we would be inder more pressure but we have kept good shape, and other than Booth getting beaten outside couple of times and their corners we have competed well. Manager constantly trying to get wide players and free midfielder up more quickly when we have ball - young players not overawed and will be good for their development

[cjward2]

Not a bad first half, certainly better than I expected. Hopefully the injuries are not too serious. Hibs still seem a bit lightweight going forward, but Ivan may change that and give us some width.

[Sean1875]

Such a temptation to abuse the commentators on their facebook page, childish? :greengrin

Is there some reason the BBC are ignoring this game? Reports from both the Rangers / Chelsea game (Chick Young surprise surprise) and Killie / Blackburn. Not even a throwaway mention of our game?

[hibs0666]

I'm hearing stories that there has been some trouble after the game. There was an unfounded rumour going round the Sunderland support that 2 of them had been stabbed pre-match.

[Broken Gnome]

Few minor scraps and nonsense posturing at the top of Easter Road. Seemed to be bigger incidents along London Road and outside Middletons.

Every police car or van seemed to come from Abbeyhill, not a single vehicle in sight at the main crossroads. I can't remember an English team coming without trouble, so god knows why they were elsewhere on full time.

Don't know about the reason but I didn't hear the Hibs v Sunderland game get a mention on Off The Ball earlier today. Mind you, it was like a 'Tynecastle love-in' with Cosgrove and Cowan getting all excited about anything and everything Yamish.
Hope Cowan's team (M'well, in case he's forgotten) stick it right up that shower tomorrow.:aok:
