I was just thinking that the one thing this evening was lacking was a good bit of smut.

Hibs.net comes through for me once again. :aok:

[seven nowt]

Really think Doyle's one of the best strikers in the SPL (said before on the Doyle to Chesterfield thread). 11 goals for the season (I believe) is a great return when you consider the amount of shots Griffiths has had. Deserves a start for the final definitely.

Sounds like Forster had a stormer, but still wouldn't drop McPake

[Col2]

Very good night. Doyle gives Fenlon a selection headache, Harris proves why he must start the cup final and McGivern back in as a late sub. Robertson sounded lively and with 5 subs only everyone if playing for a place.

I would expect Sparky to get 60 mins on Saturday and Caldwell and Doyle to fight out for starting place. If McPake is going to make it for final he needs to be fit and playing on Saturday.

It's starting to come together rather nicely. Getting just a wee bit excited!!!

[Westie1875]

This can't be right, I've heard that Hibs are a one man team. Without Griffiths we are relegation material, no-one else can score etc etc.... :wink::devil:

I get the feeling McPake wont be fit enough for the final.

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

I really think that young Harris should be getting tied down sharpish.

It's amazing what a bit width offers teams. It's not just that Harris is good, it's the fact he is a genuine wide man.

That said, Rod will no doubt sniff a sale with Harris and have him tied down soon enough.

In saying that, I'm sure we all remember another another Hibs-Celtic cup game where a young centre half was pressed into action, and tamed henrik Larsson on the way to Hibs winning 2-1. A certain Kevin Thomson scored in that game as well. I'd cheerfully accept a similar result next weekend :greengrin

[EdinMike]

Fenlon praised Forster and hinting he is in his thoughts for the Final... So will I need to change my dreams to Hanlon or Williams lifting the Cup :hmmm:

We can't overtake teams in the top half. The highest we can finish is 7th regardless of points tally.

Hes far too inconsistent and frustrates the hell out of most fans as they know he has the ability. id rather have Harris on the right then Spoony. Saying that if Spoony play like he did against Motherwell in the 0-4 game it would be difficult to pick.

One of our most creative players, has had a good season...recent dip in form but defo worth a new deal at hibs!

I'm not sure exactly but if its 80 grand per position it means we will get 320 grand more than we got last year.

That makes the split an absolute farse. We may end up with more points yet won't get the money we have earned.

Do you think we'd have picked up as many points over in the last four games had we been playing current top 6 teams (as Dundee Utd have been doing)?

[WestEndHibee]

So after searching all transfer window for our elusive winger it turns out he's actually been here all along. What a player he has been for us! For a young lad to come off the bench and have that sort of impact to the team that were looking like they might lose another goal is great. We could have someone special here!

:flag::flag::pfgwa:flag::flag:

[neil7908]

We seem to have developed a very timely (and un-Hibs like) knack of scoring late goals.

Falkirk, Hearts and now Killie all won in the last few minutes.

It gives me a lot more confidence going into the final and just hope that with a few wins under our belt (and hopefully another on Saturday) we can gain a bit of confidence.

Also good to see Robertson getting his first goal and us prospering with a second string team out.

Nice to see a bit of depth in the squad.

Mcpake was outstanding V Celtic last time (the 1-0 game), my MOM. It's such a hard choice. Forster may look the part against Hearts, but Hearts are **** and have no strikers to worry about. I would go with Mcpake, IF fully fit. Forster too much of a gamble for me.

Wotherspoons main problem is he's not established a certain position in the squad, not entirely his fault but he's not a winger never will be and he's not going to shift Claros Thomson taiwo for central midfield which is where he wants to play, his best games for hibs IMO have been at full back under yogi when he first broke through hasn't been the same player since he was pushed into midfield.

[Capt Mainwaring]

Terrific display tonight. Bossed the first half with plenty passing and possession. Thought Robertson and Thompson stood out.

Second half Killie had the better of it but defence was strong. All 4 of Stevenson, Hanlon, Forster and Maybury played well and Murdoch on goals was sound. Game swung back in our favour when Harris came on. Fantastic wing play to set up 2nd goal.

Doyle should have had at least a hat trick, but was in the right place to score the 2 he did. Took his second particularly well

Would give Stevenson Man of the Match

Spoony really has been poor for a while now, looks bereft of confidence.....Struggles to make any impact on games, and looks slow, maybe even disinterested at times....I don't think he will be offered a new deal, just a hunch though.

Harris put in a few cracking balls into box, a striker's dream.....Hibs tempo increased when he came on.....With 7 changes made to team from Sunday, I thought it was a decent enough display......Happy to get another 3 points, and no injuries.....

[Centre Hawf]

Finally just got home, thought Stevenson was absolutely brilliant, his one on one defending down his wing was superb and nothing went past him. When he moved into the midfield he was tidy in his play and got forward and found space. Really was a captain display from the lad and i hope it put the haters at bay for a week or so.

Maybury as well gets a mention, dealt with that young lad Johnstone who gave Clancy a torrid time last week and Forster had Sheridan in his back pocket when he came on.

All in all it was a really organised performance and a tidy game from us which was nice.

D was a stick out in a very good Hibs u19 team but he wasn't the captain. I like his attacking attributes and I would like to see him get a new deal. His first half performance last night was poor, his distribution was awful, he picked up in the second half. The back four played very well, Maybury in particular who had to contend with tricky Johnston - thats two very good games he's had in four days, at this moment in time he must be favourite for the cup final right back slot. The midfield was steady with Robertson probably having his best game for Hibs. Doyle scored the important goals of course but really shouldve had at least a hat trick. Wee Boozy made a difference when he came on, I love his direct style of play. Good result and good performance when you consider only two of the starting 11 are sure to start in the final.

Have to give Shiels credit anyone not in the know would assume Hibs had a height average not dissimilar to the USA basketball team. Never let's me down that man. I genuinely like him even though he is mental. Glad he is not ours though. PF is his exact opposite.


:agree:

To be fair he sounded really gutted after the game last night. But I have no idea why, we were the better team I felt apart from a 15 minute spell either side of half time.

Really think Doyle's one of the best strikers in the SPL (said before on the Doyle to Chesterfield thread). 11 goals for the season (I believe) is a great return when you consider the amount of shots Griffiths has had. Deserves a start for the final definitely.

Sounds like Forster had a stormer, but still wouldn't drop McPake


Mcpake was outstanding V Celtic last time (the 1-0 game), my MOM. It's such a hard choice. Forster may look the part against Hearts, but Hearts are **** and have no strikers to worry about. I would go with Mcpake, IF fully fit. Forster too much of a gamble for me.


Wasn't our last game against Celtic at Parkhead, a 3-0 defeat?

Jake hasn't been playing well recently and hasn't looked fit, hasn't been fit. Jordon Forster has played twice and done well. If Jake's fit for the Final, I'd probably play him - club captain, experienced player, has something to prove from last year. If not, I'd happily go with Forster.

IMO we'll do better with a team of committed youngsters than with a team of loan players with their eyes on an end-of-season bash like last year.

But it's a nice problem to have - competition for Final places and the team getting on a wee run of form.
