Great save from Bailly to deny Wotherspoon's full-blooded volley after good play from Griffiths on 62 minutes

I'm not sure if your updates are serious or not Andy.


They're far too positive. :greengrin

[Northernhibee]

I think Ivan could well play a big part for us this year. Gut instinct.

According to Bet365 it's 1-0 to them scored in 72nd minute.

[HibbyAndy]

Cairney on for Caldwell on 75 minutes

Any idea what level Leuven play at?

Any idea what level Leuven play at?

Belgian top division. Finished 14th last season. Lierse finished 12th.

So we're getting worse by the game then?!

Agreed.

[Pretty Boy]

I blame Griffiths, obviously causing unrest in the camp.

I heard he threw a sock at PF in the changing room pre match.

[HibbyAndy]

: Handling on for Stevenson on 89 minutes

If thats the case, it will be all over the front page of the Daily Record tomorrow.

HEADLINE: "Players unsettled at clubs with Rangers are in the 3rd Division..."

Whilst The Sunday Sport runs with:

'Griffiths socks Fenlon off'.

[JHFC]

another game to look forward to tomorrow! hopefully a wee win

[Aubenas]

Leuven is brilliant, the OHV set up is good & the supporters v friendly. Highlight so far: though Hibs traveling support have been great generally, 2 Hibs supporters, surrounded by Belgian families, behind us, chanting about pedophiles and Mercer being dead & Leuven being a *****hole, non stop through first half:makes ye proud to be a Hibee.........

Belgian beer is strong but no excuse for that nonsense

[blackpoolhibs]

Belgian beer is strong but no excuse for that nonsense

:agree: Idiots. :rolleyes:

That Belgian beer is strong, even the pump stuff. A couple of the lads i went with were having the 9.8 stuff and its fair to say, they wont be doing it again soon. :greengrin

[Hibstrooper]

The report on the main site keeps on going on about it being a "honest" performance. I wonder what that means

[jonty]

Probably the same as being honest to a lass you're trying to chat up. Hard work - but in the end gets you nowhere :greengrin

[monktonharp]

The report on the main site keeps on going on about it being a "honest" performance. I wonder what that means I honestly could'nt say. confuses me too.........honest.I am honestly amazed that we bring on young Handling in 89 mins, to replace someone that continues to underperform.

absolutely pointless sub

[Andy74]

It was pretty poor tonight. We desperately need some wingers. Still.

[Iain G]

absolutely pointless sub

Unless Lewis had an injury?

[Hibernia Na Eir]

in a season of HUGE opportunity I can see us taking another huge step backwards. Hibs, a club no doubt who ought to be in the top 4 in Scotland but somehow stuttering around top 8th or 9th, at best. Hope im wrong, but, somehow i have bad feelings about 2012/13.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Unless Lewis had an injury?


no injury reported, i was thinking more about how it must p@ss off a young laddie champing at the bit to get some game time and show what he can do, then ends up with a p@shy 1 minute

[Iain G]

Probably did more positive in his 1 minute than Lewis did in his 89 ;-)

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Griffiths on for the excellent Sproule 60 mins.

The excellent Sproule, FFS, what a hoot! perhaps the glare from the sun was blocking my view from the main stand bar!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I can honestly say this season will be dire, we look very poor, it only took Griffiths about 3 mins to get booked, but, to be honest, even after about another 10 Stellas, I cannae fabricate a story why! Zero positives from the game, although Leuven main square was fun!

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

When we have the same team as last year minus our best midfielder, what do we expect. Our marquee signings are two guys who played with us last year and other than that, a first division youngster and a defender from Motherwell. Exciting times. We will get pumped by united on the opening day!

[Pete]

leuven??? is that where Stella is brewed???,i believe its a lot stronger over there
hope the fans are not getting bloottered with it or they will be leuven on a jet plane [one for us auldies]
:wink::wink::wink:
bt

It sure is. Stella has went from 5.2% in the nineties down to 5% and now it is at 4.8%...and they thought we wouldn't notice!

If anyone is feeling worried about how these sheltered European football fans are feeling about these awful songs we sing I wouldn't waste your energy.

A. They're used to a lot worse and....

B. They cant understand a word that's being said. English is difficult enough but trying to understand a drunk Scotsman is beyond most.

[Hainan Hibs]

Yeah I wouldn't worry either. One of the Belgian supporters (who is now the proud possessor of an NI Hibs SC scarf)asked me what the Hibs fans were singing about he couldn't make out a word. I just said it was about how much they hate the Hertz.

Overall a good night out (if you forget about the football - only the new goalie got pass marks from me) too much Westmalle and Stella though!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

it only took Griffiths about 3 mins to get booked, but, to be honest, even after about another 10 Stellas, I cannae fabricate a story why!

Turns out the booking was because the tape holding up his socks wasn't the same colour as his socks!
A belated cheers to Billy behind the bar in Leuven stadium who looked after myself and Stevie and got us a taxi back to the square after the game.

Someone told me it was because he'd left the pitch to sort his boots and come back on again without the ref's permission? To be honest, watching it at the time I assumed he'd just said something...
