[calumhibee1]

No Stanton, hope he's not injured again. Anyone any idea when we're likely to see Harris back getting in a run in these games? He back training with the first team?

Brilliant to hear, well done James and the players, once again! :thumbsup:

[Ozyhibby]

Are we top of both u20 leagues yet?

[Hibee87]

Are we top of both u20 leagues yet?

Yeah but i think celtic are not far behind with a few games in hand. I think the league is pretty tight at the mo. however we have scored somthing like 17 goals in 3 games..........get the mall playing on sat :cb

[yerauldda]

Are we top of both u20 leagues yet?

Yes. If Inverness hold onto their lead at Celtic they'll join us at the top with 28 points, though they'll have an inferior goal difference and have played 3 games more.

[Pretty Boy]

I've only watched the 20s once this season and they were very good.

Seem to be on fire at the moment. How many of the lads play in the EOS team and the 20s league. I guess it's quite a few and i'm convinced playing in that league helps.

Here's hoping a few make the next step.

[California-Hibs]

Really liking the sound and brief look we've had at Cummings! Good to see Zoubir on the scoresheet aswel, he showed some great pieces of skill against Celtic when he came on! Well done the under 20s!

[Leithenhibby]

Are we top of both u20 leagues yet?

Yeah, for now!....

It looks like it will go to the wire, our boys are doing a marvellous job...... :wink:
22 goals in 4 games ain't too shabby...

[Mikey]

Their results have been pretty good since McDonough blew his top on the official site a few weeks ago!

All of the young players have played in the east of scotland team aswell, the older ones start for under 20s and younger for eos. I agree with you that playing in both leagues has helped

The EofS league will toughen the lads up I would think.

I've seen a few games this season, some of the football has been excellent and some of the tackles horrendous (ok maybe just a wee bit late!)

Agree think Cummings has to take confidence from his goal scoring exploits but when he gets into first team and knows no one is scoring regularly that is a pressure he could probably do without right now Think if he was being blooded in a winning it would be better but we are where we are Saturday may change all that .Zoubir clearly has talent he just needs to be able to be free to express himself and go at players that's what he does best if confident and getting right coaching

[Col2]

Does anyone have the same level of excitement with Cummings as they did with Deek, OConnor or Fletch?

I haven't seen him play but given goal record i assume Hibs are privately very excited about what he might be able to do in the future?

Yes he is in middle of a purple patch just now but we haven't had a striker come through the youth ranks for a while that has lived up to the potential

[Craig_in_Prague]

sounds like we enjoy 2nd halves!

did we not hit 6 or so recently 2nd half (Dunfermline ?)

Some going !!

Well done the young hibees.

Cummings must be worth a start?

[TheReg!]

Yup I agree, Cummings should be given a starting place either this week or against Killie IMHO. He is banging them in and has looked not too shabby when he has come on as a sub.

Given that he is not injured, the fact that he was not involved today suggests he will be involved on Saturday.

Danny has tailed off after two good games against st mirren and ICT so we start with Cummings and bring Danny on to see if he responds to losing starting place Has to be worth considering

[GreenCastle]

Cummings looks direct and speedy - he obviously has an eye for a goal and I would start him Saturday.

He's raw but teams won't know much about him plus he adds speed to our one paced attack.

Bit of a gamble but Handling just hasn't done enough last 2 games.

[Billy]

Today's goals are on the Freeview player of the official website. They are 3rd on the playlist titled "Six of the Best" :greengrin

Was it a smith hat trick yet not seen much praise for the lad, lots of assists and delighted to see he's got some goals to his name

Very good of our own "the Tache" to fill in as sub for the visitors, thus allowing the game to take place, after several of the aberdeen party were distracted by sheep on the way down, hence the delay. Probably.

don't know about anyone else, but weeks ago I was touting him for 1st team appearances at least, at some stage of the games. purely on the basis of his goal scoring. glad to see he is getting put on. not that I actually watch the U20s.

For the short time I've watched him he has a desire to score goals for fun, with an abundance of fire in the belly....

Would like to see him starting at some point soon... :wink:
