[Scorrie]

McGivern ... What a centre half! Match for Rudi :not worth

Was going to post this myself. McGivern was outstanding. Could be a great CH!. Really good defending today :flag:

[Liam_Hibs]

What did he do? Edit - having technical difficulties with my phone!

What did Skatchel do at the end?

I'd move Hanlon to left back and play McPake and McGivern at CH if he plays like that everyweek :agree:

OOH. BAD mistake.

Skacel is a grade 1 welt, I hope someone permanently cripples that prick.

Definitely between these two for MOTM. Cairney shades it for me, his contributions to both goals were sublime.

[euansdad]

Taped it on sky can't wait watch it back. Admit I was a wee bit worried before the game so made up and this game proves this side has a bit of bottle

[Hibs7]

Hibs gifted United a goal, otherwise they were not at the races,Hibs were the better team and that is without, McPake, Clancy and Deegan so a lot to look forward to.

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

This..

My thoughts exactly, they are a decent side but our defence apart from the goal was rock solid, midfield and attack were superb and the wee man Cairney is just a delight to watch at times.

[JHFC]

what was the attendance?

[Hibs7]

All credit to Claros as well he is a gem hope we cam keep him too.

[YehButNoBut]

[McD]

Skacel was only out for himself, turned his back on a few throw ins coz he wasn't in a shooting position, was only interested in shooting, didn't give a **** about utd as long as he could noise us up by scoring, take that ya cock, hopefully you'll get referred to the video official at the sfa for trying to be hard man at the end and trying to stick the head on claros. Noticed he then ran away and let gunning and sproule get booked

[Hibs7]

Attendance up by 3 or 400 every home game, keep this up and we will reach 12,000 soon, especially if Griffiths and Claros get signed.

[truehibernian]

McGivern was immense, hopefully folk will give Alan Maybury tremendous credit for a couple of goal saving tackles and blocks, Cairney superb - Leigh and Eoin were so hard working today up top.

I now know why Kuqi doesn't start many - very very very poor player.

Fantastic result today and for a team with three missing, all worked hard as a team.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Good performance up until their goal, things looked a tad ominous after that. Good 3pts against a side that had became a bit of a bogey side for us.

[Willis1875]

Will the compliance officer get involved for that wee bladder with a mouth satchel pointing to the numbers on his back??

[YehButNoBut]

Have to say that I really enjoyed the game today, we played really well against a good side (who we have not beaten in a long time).

We scored 2 wonderful goals and they only scored because we gifted them a goal, which made it a nail biting finish, but the make shift defence stood firm in which McGivern was outstanding.

Special mention for Cairney who was superb and helped create both goals, this lad has been a real find and hopefully Fenlon can unearth 1 or 2 more like him.

I think we are the real deal this season and will hopefully maintain our challengeat the top end of the league.

Well done to Pat Fenlon and a great team performance.

:hibees:pfgwa:flag:

[Hibs7]

Kuqi and Sproule will be gone at the end of the season.

[PeeJay]

Hibs gifted United a goal, otherwise they were not at the races,Hibs were the better team and that is without, McPake, Clancy and Deegan so a lot to look forward to.

We gifted them the goal, but United had a lot of decent possession in the 2nd half and a couple of really good efforts - Skacel hit the bar with a tremendous effort, and on another day he would have scored with the one he put well wide ... fail to see how you think they weren't "at the races".

Thought it was a good game of football all round - Hibs played really well, great team effort - overall we probably deserve the points.

[Cocaine&Caviar]

In January we MUST sign Griffiths, Claros and another CB.

Was Skacel pointing to the back of his shirt as he went off? What a odious little tosser. Claros did well holding back and not head butting the tosser.

[LeighLoyal]

Watched at home, great result. I just worry that we'll keep hold of Griffiths.

[blackpoolhibs]

Just back home from watching at my mates house, teriffic Hibs another great result and battling performance. We also scored 2 great goals that should be in the goal of the month awards. I'm off to find the biggest sock i have in my sock drawer. :thumbsup:

He did aye. I just laughed at him. Vermin.

Best name I have heard for him, VERMIN, that is what we should chant at him for ever more.

If Hibs had not gifted them that goal it would have been different, they got a boost from that and Hibs fell back a bit.

[nonshinyfinish]

'Vermin' is favourite name for us amongst the soon-to-be-extinct pink hordes. I like to think that we are better than calling folk vermin.

That's if he is still playing football. Hope the wee Vermin gets a career ending tackle. Really can't stand the rat.

Sounds like he's pissed off then. Mission accomplished.

[iwasthere1972]

Hibs went into todays's match at home to Dundee United in a rich vein of form having paid all the wages on time, Employees Tax and Insurance deductions paid to HMRC and submitted the VAT return on schedule.

[Hainan Hibs]

Just home and very very pleasantly surprised to say the least:greengrin. When I saw the defence line-up I thought the worst, but if we can get victories like that it bolds well for the rest of the season.

[tamig]

Thought there were a few top performances today. Claros had one of his best games for us but I thought Lewis Stevenson had a great game coming in at left back having not played much at all lately. McGivern also excellent at CH.

Just listened to Houston on BBC ... no comment about how well Hibs played .. blaming it all on DU poor performance in the first half, ...but Hibs didn't allow them to play. End off.

[iwasthere1972]

I'm amazed that Dundee United waited until the 58th minute to bring the git on and didn't put him on 7 minutes earlier. Opportunity missed.

They didn't have a chance as we scored in that minute :wink:

[SaulGoodman]

Was disappointed to hear the 'refugee song' apart from that it was another great home game!

Maybe I misheard the song from where I was sitting?

[lucky]

Best Hibs performance of season and probably in the last 3 season's. It was a cracking game with two decent teams. The second goal was the best team goal since Mowbrays time with 5 players involved

[Two Halves]

Great result and overall a good performance. Thought McGivern, Claros and cairney were superb today. Did feel a bit twitchy that skacel was going to sneak a goal for them.

Fans were in great voice again. Atmosphere is definitely building every week.

Wee mention for the DJ too for playing Taxman at HT too!!

[iwasthere1972]

Brilliant.

[The_Sauz]

I thought the announcer said No 21 when the rat came on :greengrin (mind it was hard to hear anything over the booing :greengrin)

[Seveno]

I am such a happy person. :greengrin

Today was such a great team performance with two fantastic goals and plenty tension at the end. Add two pantomime villains on the pitch and what more could you ask for.

Picking the MoM was very difficult and I can see why Cairney got it as he was instrumental in both goals. I would have given it to Claros for overall work rate and contribution. He is a class act.

[silverhibee]

Where were you sitting.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Did feel a bit twitchy that skacel was going to sneak a goal for them.
Me too. I had a few quid on griffiths anytime at 7/5, so when he scored I put my winnings on hibs to score the next goal at 5/4. When it went 2-1 and he came on I stuck a couple of quid on Skacel anytime at 5/1. A bet I was delighted to lose, but it seemed a certainty.

[Apocalypso]

I doubt it. I could hear it clearly on the telly man.

The west. Probably why I think I misheard it, seemed to hear it pretty clear though.

[hibs0666]

1-1 at Parkhead with less than 10 to go.

[Franck Stanton]

Just home from the game today. What a TEAM performance. There were no passengers what-so-ever in the starting 11. Was a wee bit concerned at start of the game, what with that cheating rat Thomson as ref, his love-child scatchel, [ really hate that odious wee rat], and to top it off no McPake. What with Unt having recovered a bit of form in past few weeks, if I am being honest, was fearful of a defeat today. However..........no need to worry, we now have a team/squad of fighters who give everything for the cause. Really solid all-round team effort with the class of Cairney, [ what a steal he was, best signing for god knows how many years], the natural goal-scoring talents of Griffiths, the had work of Claros in midfield and the "they shall not pass" attitude of our back 4. SO much different from the last 2-3 seasons. Cairney deserved his MoM award. The only blip was the crazy defensive lapse which gifted Unt a goal. {IMO Williams has to take the blame here, had ample opportunity to wellie the ball up/out of the park]. Having said that , Well done to all the players today. Really pleasing. All the more encouaging when you think that we have 3 first - pick players in McPake/Deegan and Clancy to come back. Looking good Hibs, just don't let it all slip away now.

[hibs0666]

Five to go, still 1-1.

[hibs0666]

Dancer - top of the league. :not worth :flag:

[wookie70]

Some great performances today. McGivern really good in the middle at the back and Cairney superb with the ball at his feet. The two goals could both grace the goal of the season comps. Equal blame for the goal between Hanlon and Williams for me. Both could have cleared quite easily. Cant believe the room we gave that wee ****bag when he came on. He looked half a stone over weight and still kept getting into positions unmarked. I think Kuji should be used as a striking coach. He looked unbelieveably slow and nowhere near fit.
On a lighter note that is the first game my 7 year old daughter sat through and enjoyed. This was confirmed at home when I heard her belting out GGTTH from the top of her voice from the throne. If anyone has kids get seats close to Section 43. My kids really enjoyed the atmosphere and I can safely get 3 half season tickets now my lass has the Hibs firmly under her skin. It was tough to indoctrinate last year.

[inglisavhibs]

why the **** does our main striker take corners and free kicks, have we seriously no other player that can cross a baw ffs :(
Because his delivery is brilliant.

[YehButNoBut]

Because his delivery is brilliant.

Same with Man Utd now, they have RVP taking most of the dead balls as his delivery is so good, he can score a few as well.

Leigh up there with RVP these days. :greengrin
