My first match update thread.

See here for updates from Hibsbollah on what the weather is like in Leith and the Dashing Bob winter collection, detailing the suitable attire one should adorn themselves in for the big game.

Also, there might be updates from the match itself :greengrin

[CallumLaidlaw]

Just about to set off for the Iona from Rosyth. All the players on twitter seem up for it this morning. Lets get right behind them today!!!

From eticketing, only 800 tickets left in the east so will be a great atmosphere in there!!

[nonshinyfinish]

Slate grey skies here in Cambridge, although it remains dry thus far. The temperature offers neither the unforeseen bonus of late-autumn warmth nor the visceral thrill of genuine cold. Disappointing all round; it puts one in mind of Stringer Bell's 'forty degree day'. [Parental discretion advised.]

I'm looking forward to 4-5 pages worth of:

Bloody BBC page! Does anyone have a link to our game?

Alan Preston is a kn0b!

Then when we score there will be at least 18 replies of........:thumbsup:

Followed by someone asking 10 minutes after the goal - "Does anyone have a description of the goal?" Which will be ignored.

Bring it on!!!

[LancashireHibby]

Shall try to bring a half time update but won't be participating during the game as I'll be allez-ing in section 43.

[hibsbollah]

The Bollah Barometer is showing high pressure, 1013mb and rising, which means fine and cold today at the Leith San Siro. Temperature will peak at 5C, but remember its late November so sunset will be at 3:45 causing those temperatures to plummet second half.

Winds will be light at 4mph but forecasting the prevailing direction isn't straightforward. Even Judith Ralston struggled to pin it down this morning, and the met office's Shipping Forecast for Forth was equally obtuse. Winds will be backing from southeasterly southwesterly AND easterly off the sea today, swirling around in advance of the heavy rain that's forecast for Sunday. If the wind ends up coming from an easterly direction it's likely to feel colder than 5 degrees.

In short, A hat and gloves would be a good idea, and for you West Standers, a nice tartan blanket for those knees.

Just remember, there's no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing:aok:

Is mcpake back?

According to STV preview he's still doubtful because of his back injury. :rolleyes:

http://sport.stv.tv/football/scottish-premier/202418-hibernian-v-aberdeen-squad-news-and-preview-hibs-aim-to-bounce-back/Captain

James McPake is again doubtful with a back problem for Hibernian.


Defender Tim Clancy (groin) is definitely out, while midfielder Gary Deegan (fractured jaw) has been given permission to return to full training, but will be eased in gently.

Looks like Aberdeen wil be missing a few of their regulars today, according to the Scotsman, hopefully gives us a better chance of winning the game, which would be a great 3 points for us.

C'mon the Hibees. :flag:


http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/spl/key-players-missing-for-aberdeen-ahead-of-hibs-clash-at-easter-road-1-2658043

ABERDEEN were set to arrive at Easter Road for today’s SPL clash against Hibs without a host of key men.

Ryan Fraser, Gavin Rae and Clark Robertson have dropped out of the already-depleted squad that lost 2-0 at home to Celtic last weekend.

That trio will join first-team regulars Ryan Jack, Stephen Hughes, Gary Naysmith and Rob Milsom on the sidelines.

The absence of Fraser, the teenage winger who has earned rave reviews this season, will be a particularly big blow to the Dons’ hopes of becoming the first team to win at Easter Road this season. The youngster suffered a hip injury against Celtic last week.

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Gutties, jeans, hoody and a bodywarmer. Essentially, look out for the tall, handsome chap making his way to his seat in the lower east. I've even brushed my hair today.

[Prydo]

Will the ticket stalls be open today or is it an all ticket like it used to be with Cat B games eg. Celtic, Rangers, The sheep?

[cabbageandribs1875]

Gavin Rae being given as long as possible to see if fit or not

[Hibee87]

Hibernian: Williams, Maybury, Hanlon, McGivern, Stevenson, Wotherspoon, Taiwo, Claros, Cairney, Griffiths, Doyle


Murdoch, Sproule, Handling, Stanton, Caldwell, Kuqi, Donaldson

[Hibee87]

The Sheep:

Team: Langfield, Anderson, Reynolds, Considine, Magennis, Osbourne, Smith, Clark, Hayes, Vernon, McGinn

[HibeeN]

Disappointing that McPake didn't make it, but no sense in rushing him back. Hopefully we can stay solid.

[Onceinawhile]

Same as last week then, hopefully the result is the kick up the arse we need!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Hibernian: Williams, Maybury, Hanlon, McGivern, Stevenson, Wotherspoon, Taiwo, Claros, Cairney, Griffiths, Doyle

sure that is the same team as started last week, must be giving them the chance to make ammends

[Dinkydoo]

If we lose, Dinkydoo is to blame :greengrin

Oh, I take full responsibility. :greengrin

[Jones28]

If LG is on form he can put 2 or 3 past Langfield.

[Dinkydoo]

Looking at our team selection I'm starting to get worried that both Deegan and McPake will not feature in the derby next week. The former being a bigger doubt.

Without Deegan to boss the midfield we'll need a leader at the back.

[R'Albin]

Thank god Fraser isn't playing, the thought of him against Maybury again makes me cringe. I think out of the two teams we are missing the more important players, however, Josh Magennis at full back is great news IMO. Cairney or Wotherspoon will rip him to shreds.

[cabbageandribs1875]

full house at pittodrie








for the scotland v tonga rugby match :)

[EuanH78]

Looking at our team selection I'm starting to get worried that both Deegan and McPake will not feature in the derby next week. The former being a bigger doubt.

Without Deegan to boss the midfield we'll need a leader at the back.

At the start of the season I set my expectations for Hibs as top six, theres no doubt that we have a good starting 11 but we might suffer with injuries or suspensions.

Not criticising the players who are covering because they are all capable players but essentially we are missing a good part of the spine of our team which could make things difficult for us in crunch games.

I think PF has a good eye for a player so I'm confident if he has time to rebuild the squad to his liking we will have a very strong side in the not so distant future.

Hopefully have enough to take the 3 points today though.

If we don't score, Aberdeen will go up the other end and do it.

Fairly uninspiring stuff so far. Hibs shading it.

Entertaining first half on HibsTV. We are on top. But Aberdeen are defending well. A couple of good shots from Sparky. Stevenson, Claros and Wotherspoon also playing well. GGTTH !

[MSK]

Mon hibs ..get intae the 8915

[18Craig75]

We need to up the tempo, not looking too bad at the back, Stevenson needs to settle a bit. I'd like to see Cairney and Spoony running at them a bit more try to commit their full backs. Come on lads!

[PeeJay]

Overall a poor game IMO - poor performance by Hibs, albeit a few individual efforts could have ended up as goals - most of the efforts have been from outside the box though.

Not too impressed with Aberdeen but our concentration levels need to be ratcheted up - Hanlon/Taiwo in particular. Cairney, Griffiths, Doyle can cause problems but they need more of the ball.

We need to do more going forward and keep the ball on the deck, I'm fed up watching us pump high balls up the park only to lose most of the headers...

[Dalianwanda]

Is there a decent sized crowd?

[Sylar]

Another good save by Clangers from Griffiths!

Every season Hibs have a bogey team and this season it is Aberdeen.

Any team becomes our bogey team when its a game that holds any great significance. We just seem to bottle it time and time again.

say it time and time again...it's always doubly hard to win games when we normally give away a customary goal each game

Urgh why do we always have to **** up against the Sheep and the Yams?

2 clubs that think they're bigger and better than they really are.

Unfortunately, any players we sign seem to think they are as well! :grr:

[Hibs90]

mon big man

[Speedway]

FT oh well, there's always never.

[hibeeswph]

we need to be competing with aberdeen now only a few points from dropping into bottom six:confused:

[cabbageandribs1875]

2-0 st.johnstone, will they go above us on wednesday ? :(

[SkintHibby]

League is that tight any slump and we could be in the bottom six mix!

[Liam89]

Oh hibs, forever letting me down

[DevonLoch]

Caldwell just over bar - good effort

[Leishy1995]

Kuqi never put a foot wrong today, that's the positive.

[PeeJay]

FT oh well, there's always never.

We're still playing here on Hibs TV - there's hope yet!

[DevonLoch]

Corner…seconds to go

[Hibs7]

Poor two weeks for Hibs, how many chances have we had to go top of the league and blown it, even worse losing to these wannabees.

[Hibercelona]

We're still playing here on Hibs TV - there's hope yet!

Let me know what the full time score is in 10 minutes. :greengrin

[cabbageandribs1875]

aberdeen player handle in the box ?

[Speedway]

A Caldwell effort just under the bar would've been better.

[DevonLoch]

Claim for handball….penalty not given

Game over - wasted opportunity against run of play.

[IWasThere2016]

Pish!

[Leishy1995]

We just need to get right behind them them next week and inspire them.

[Hibs7]

2 clubs that think they're bigger and better than they really are.

Totally agree, dislike both of them

[SteveHFC]

Terrible

[johnbc70]

The games against Dundee and Aberdeen were perfectly winnable games, if we had won them we would be 5 points clear at the top of the league!

[Sylar]

Pardon the somewhat "knee-jerk" reaction but after seeing how utterly woeful the team were at the back last week, this doesn't surprise me at all.

If Griffiths goes in January, we're going to struggle to score goals whilst we continue to concede them. We're missing McPake with not enough quality to come in and support him.

[iwasthere1972]

If we lose, Dinkydoo is to blame :greengrin

:agree:

[DevonLoch]

We just need to get right behind them them next week and inspire them.


Too right! Be my first live game this season at Easter Road. Can't wait!

[London Hibs FC]

Gutted, Aberdeen with a fortunate 3 points there!

[smack]

I'd still have taken being only 1 point off the top after 15 games

[Hibercelona]

Gutted, Aberdeen with a fortunate 3 points there!

How many times have we said that regarding those lot at ER?

If we don't score and don't keep clean sheets, we'll just keep losing games. It's that simple.

Very disappointing today.

[DevonLoch]

I'd still have taken being only 1 point off the top after 15 games

I think we all would have after last couple of seasons. Disappointing coupled of results but recoverable.

[Craig_in_Prague]

Poor stuff. If we lose Griffiths, i am afraid we will plummet down the league.. we might do so with him, why do we always lose so many ****ty pishy crap goals? seriously?!?

[madabouthibs]

How many on here were saying how pish McPake has been lately??? He's badly missed, if not for his own performances then for his ability to gee everyone else up when required! I hope he's back next week!

[madabouthibs]

I'd still have taken being only 1 point off the top after 15 games
I think thats more down to Celtic than us.

[Leishy1995]

I'm blaming Chris Hogg. Bring back the whipping boys. Nish to return and give us something to complain about.

[Hibercelona]

Poor stuff. If we lose Griffiths, i am afraid we will plummet down the league.. we might do so with him, why do we always lose so many ****ty pishy crap goals? seriously?!?

It's almost like we can't handle the idea of going a full 90 minutes without making at least 1 defensive mistake that costs us a goal.

You would think with all the changes in players and managers of the years, these kind of problems would be resolved. But the club seems to carry the same old problems regardless of who's actually there.

I just can't understand it at all. Do other clubs in the league have this problem? Or is it really just us?

[chrisski33]

I blame dinkyboo for the loss! but mcpake not playing didnt help

[Ozyhibby]

Poor stuff. If we lose Griffiths, i am afraid we will plummet down the league.. we might do so with him, why do we always lose so many ****ty pishy crap goals? seriously?!?

Because our defence is keek.

[Famous5forever]

Baws we could have went top we need to get back on form thats 2 defeats in a row and its usually after the year we go on these runs fingers crossed its only a blip.

[Jones28]

Missing Deegan and mcpake even more so, further proof we need to strengthen in January. People are saying that McGivern and Claros are priorities but getting cover in midfield and at the back is just as important.

[hibbymick]

Its times like these that we need another decent goalscorer in the team, we cant rely on Griffiths all the time.

[Dinkydoo]

and that marks the end of my short lived Official Matchday thread career.

[Piqué]

Sickening that when we have played poorly this season we've often snuck a goal or two, then when we actually should deservedly be winning we throw it away. Typical.

[Hibs7]

So f ekin predictable it is unbelievable, all that pressure and lose 1-0 it is the Hibs way. Seriously thought PF could change that but it does not seem so.

[Pretty Boy]

Disappointing.

We didn't play that well for spells imo but in truth I can hardly remember Williams having a save to make whilst Langfield had at least 4 very good saves. Take our chances and we could have won 3-1 but we didn't so no point in what ifs.

For their goal think Wotherspoon has to hold his hands up. Lost the ball and then, not for the only time today, seemed slow chasing it back, cross gets in too easily and we're suddenly a goal down.

[Hibs7]

and that marks the end of my short lived Official Matchday thread career.

Thank Falkirk for that !!!

[Pretty Boy]

and that marks the end of my short lived Official Matchday thread career.

****ing booooooooo

[Stevie Reid]

Usual pish being posted by the usual suspects on here - we played really well today and were quite simply unlucky, didn't get a single break.

Criticism of the team and Fenlon is nonsense.

[Famous5forever]

Must admit, I've missed the posts slating McPake.
A real conundrum for Hibs now, a year ago we had to steady the ship. Then we had to rebuild.
Done.
Now do we build upon what has been started with the consequences that brings by spending? Or do we say what we have is good enough to show an improvement on last season?


There is no money left to rebuild like we have done in the last 2 January Windows we cant even muster the 150k to keep LG Its down to Paddy to sort this as there will be no help from RP. We need to back the team with our support no point turning now we got off to a good start and have shown good form up until the last 2 results.

And we are only 1 point off the top of the league:flag:

[SaulGoodman]

On the way back from the game.

Daylight Robbery.

That is all.

[CRAZYHIBBY]

What's the crowd like today?

Their like loads of people in coats and scarfs sitting together in one big huddle

[Fergus52]

Usual pish being posted by the usual suspects on here - we played really well today and were quite simply unlucky, didn't get a single break.

Exactly, we must have some of the most negative fans.

I honestly don't see what some people get from constantly exaggerating and twisting things to put their own team down.
