Another game win zero goals, our team is brutal going forward. I think Heff will be good but I'd never play Vine or Collins again, I'm not even sure Caldwell will turn out to be good. Craig and Robertson need to do more going forward, Harris is injured still hopefully he will be back soon. 9 league goals all season says it all. Get a finger out Hibs, what manager would want to come to us with these duds in the team?

I'm all for giving people chances but 9 flipping goals all season is terrible! As my mate said we'd be better with Jackie Collins up front. Heff looks the part but the team is slow as old dogs and moving the ball forward quickly doesn't happen. If we are in for our usual Xmas slump then it's going be a long winter. I'm up next week for the ict game, glad our home form is good we should win this game 3 or 4 nil

Collins is a finisher. Not a forward or an attacker. Give him the ball in the penalty box and he will score his fair share. Don't send him chasing long balls. Rather than Collins being gash, what is gash is asking players to do stuff that they don't have in their locker.

I don't think its as simple as our strikers being gash and the fact that the midfield isn't creating alot of chances is just as important.

I agree Heffernan has looked the best so far although I think its too early to tell with the others.

I think Collins will come good if we start creating chances for him, particularly if we play with wingers that put in decent crosses. He had an ok scoring record before he came and has looked alright in a few games earlier in the season. He's young, in a new team and probably lacking confidence. I think he'll improve.

Not sure about Vine. I don't think he's nearly as bad as some make out but still needs to do more. Its too early to write him off completely and hopefully the new manager can give him a new start. Another one that must be suffering from a lack of confidence given some of our supported pounce on every mistake he makes (I'm not trying to change the direction of the thread, but I genuinely think this must be a factor.)

Caldwell in young and hardly played so difficult to make a reasonable judgement.

He could be 3 yards from an open goal and i'd bet my house on him hitting it wide.

not seen the miss yet but agree need to give him a chance to show what he can do when he gets better service, mind he is still young so got to stop getting on to him as you will destroy what confidence he has left.

The lack of wingers and width in our team and play is terrible, the past three / four years has been poor. It's hard to tell about Caldwell as he has not played much but apart from his goal v Hearts (which was class) he hasn't managed to force himself into a team that's crying out for strikers. Vine could be our worst forward ever to wear the number 9, my pompey mate's were laughing at how he was in the spl when he couldn't even make there team in a trial last year. The guy is slow and brutal there is no hope there. Collins we all want to be good but he can't finish for toffee, every game he misses a sitter or a great chance, can't see him being good. The Heff will need to score 20+ this season for us to finish top six

It's hard not to be honest, Easter Road was always a great place to go up until past few years. We never expected to win every game but most games we got entertained and Hibs would score goals and have plenty of shots on goal. These days we don't get beat by much ie 1 goal normally but we don't create chances but if we do our strikers can't score them. In our games it's nearly first team to score wins the match

IberianHibernian
03-11-2013, 09:52 PM
The late misses against Aberdeen and today would have given us 2 points more and direct rivals 2 less but neither were open goals so I certainly wouldn`t write him off because of them especially as he`d just come on as a sub . If he doesn`t turn out to be a good signing for us , I`ll be surprised if he doesn`t do well at his next club .

Sorry, but quite a lot of fans are sick of "sticking together". This is the guff that Petrie kept coming out with. Promising us that things would get better as long as we stuck together and gave the club plenty of backing.

I'm hoping Harris can help change it when fit. Everything was very congested at times today when the space was out wide. When we did get the ball wide on a few occasions in the second half the delivery was poor, particularly from Craig and Stevemson. We've seen before that he can get his head up and pick people out.

Yup and our other strikers are much of the same mould. The little floated chip over the top isn't working, neither is the big punt up the middle either. Ok we are short on wide players, but we do have a few that could do more of bursting into the box from angles to open up defences and create chances. At the moment we seem to get to about 20 yards out and run out of ideas...except for the aforementioned float over the top.

We made as many chances as Motherwell today which given we were away from home was reasonable. On another day Heff would have scored but I agree, the thought of him being injured or suspended doesn't bear thinking about.

Handling is the player out of the other forwards we have who I feel should be given a chance even if it is cutting in from out wide. Push Robertson infield and drop Taiwo.

Ah the uberfan debate.

Not at all - YOU were the one who said there was "precious little evidence" of me supporting the club. I have given you evidence (shouldn't have bitten but did).

You obviously enjoy having a go at fans who attend the games and invest in the club, a bit perverse, but carry on son :aok:

Saying you go to games is not evidence - but I have no reason to doubt you don't turn up at Easter Road. My point is that you are one of a small number of unrepresetnative posters who are constantly negative, mean spirited and subjective in your postings. If you are anything like you are on here at the game I'd hate to sit next to you, your family and friends.

If I'm wrong could you point me in the direction of a post where you say something positive about watching Hibs?

Why would he if there is literally nothing positive to say about watching Hibs at the moment?

We were generally quite poor again. What's positive to say?

1. I started a thread praising the guys in the East for the amazing atmosphere at our last home league game against Aberdeen !

2. I defended Fenlon's substitutions against Aberdeen where I felt he correctly went for it.

Sadly, things have not being going well at Hibs so there is more negative than positive things for me to say at present (unless you think 2 home wins at ER in 2013 is acceptable?!?!)

Given that you don't go to Easter road, your point about hating to sit next to myself, my family or friends is both irrelevant and downright nasty.

Two out of 2,560 posts - not bad.

Oh by the way I don't only turn up for cup finals - I would have thought with your logic and reason you would have spotted that - as you would with the 'if' in the previous post.

The unrelenting negativity from a few hyperactive but unrepresentative posters makes this place pretty unpleasant at times - and if refelcted from the stands (which both Pat Fenlon and now Jimmy Nichol in his post match interview have alluded to) undermines the players' confidence.

You still continue with this - in response to a direct question from you i gave you 2 examples of positive posts from the last league home game alone !!!!!

Yet you brush this aside and make a hollow reference to my post count and a derogatory comment about my logic and reason. Your use of big words doesn't put me off - continue to be nasty if you wish, your bully boy tactics don't work with me :na na:

Very poor show sir :yawn2:

Thought heff overall yesterday was very poor and could of had a hat trick in the first half

Collins missed a very good chance

Robertson could of done better after his run

Really need to start taking these chances

He could be 3 yards from an open goal and i'd bet my house on him hitting it wide.

Thats how good a finisher he is.

Things just aren't going right in your life, are they son?

I don't think our forwards are any worse than any other teams but we are so narrow in attack that chances are very hard to manufacture, if we had some width and players got to the by line for a few cutbacks then yer grannie would score goals against most teams, is that what happened against St Mirren recently ?.
