Hibs v Partick Thistle

[cjward2]

Corner hibs.

[The Green Goblin]

We need goals. Who do we look to for those? We don't have anyone in our team we can rely on to score.

Good pressure from Hibs. Corner. Nelson heads wide. 18 mins plus IT

[SanFranHibs]

From the radio we are playing well, it's the combination of a goalie playing out of his skin and our fragility to long balls who's is causing us problems.

J

We don't seem to have created many chances this half.

[Speedway]

Morton staging a comeback 7-2 now.

[cjward2]

Liam craig shoots, corner hibs again.

[CalgaryHibs]

Game of the day Hamilton 7-1 Greenock

[Aldo]

We've not been shocking today, though. It's pretty obvious we're the better side and deserve a goal.

Tbh we need to take one or get a wee break.... Yes you make your own luck but most weeks teams seem to get more than their fair share. I don't care how we've played I just want a goal a point a win FFS.

[cjward2]

Nelson heads wide

[weonlywon6-2]

Lost our way snce thomson went of

[cjward2]

Patrick bring on Elliot for erskine

We've died in the 2nd half.

Poor

[heretoday]

Bye Nelson you second rate thug.

[erin-go-bragh87]

Embarrassing.

[cjward2]

Nelson had to put in that Tackle to prevent the shot. Free kick outside the box to partick

[Aldo]

Good that means Bombscare is missing on Tuesday.

Games a bogey now.....

FFS

[cjward2]

Right into Williams hands

[kdhibees1]

Good :D








Sorry :(

[cjward2]

Robertson off, Handling on

[The Green Goblin]

We look wide open now. Linesman gave free kick but ref overrules and gives corner.

Robertson off handling on

[PeeJay]

Thistle have looked the better team 2nd half - we haven't offered anywhere near what we should be doing to save ourselves - very disappointing ... Robertson off, Handling on ...

[Green Reaper]

Handling on

[Speedway]

Tough for Partick now as we all know it's harder to play against 10 than 11...

[Callum_62]

Robertson off, handling on

Cant say we aint offensively set up!

Dangerous FK hibs - good chance

Another good save gallagher

[Aldo]

No goals no points and tbh after being very optimistic I cannot see us getting out of this rut.... Poor poor very poor

FFS Hibs.

[The Green Goblin]

We have a free kick on the edge of the D

[PeeJay]

Free kick to Hibs inside the D ...

[cjward2]

Free kick to hibs centre of the park, 20 yards out.

[Aldo]

Tough for Partick now as we all know it's harder to play against 10 than 11...

Ha ha. Like that one

[The Green Goblin]

Craig shoots. Good save

[SanFranHibs]

10 -2 Hamilton Courier.

[cjward2]

Great save by Gallagher. From a craig shot.

[Speedway]

Hamilton get 9

[Beefster]

Hamilton get 9

10.

[PONGO]

We have died as a football club . Pish poor

[Aldo]

10 -2 Hamilton Courier.

Let's hope they've used their luck and leave their shooting boots behind.

They've still a few games to play yet. The winners of the 3rd v 4th but don't fancy my chances tbh.

[cjward2]

Shot from Collins, saved again. Just cannot score.

[Gatecrasher]

I'll guess and say Hamilton have scored more today than we have all year.

[Keith_M]

Sorry to say this but, we're going down.


Surely nobody can argue with that now.



:boo hoo:

[SneakersO'Toole]

Don't worry everyone, we've found a system according to TB.

[green day]

We have died as a football club . Pish poor

Idiot

[blackpoolhibs]

At least we saw improvement against hearts.

[Aldo]

A point we now need a wee Yam win the morn.... A win or at least a point on Tuesday and beat Killie next weekend.

[GreenLake]

Well done considering nothing, and we are getting absolutely nothing, going for us.

One point for us. 3 more to go and we are safe. Nae problem. :greengrin:flag:

[Callum_62]

ft 1-1

i'll take that in the end

Big one, we will be missing Thommo likely on Tuesday....and will Robertson be fit enough?

Mcpake likley to come back in now

Still, a win on tuesday and we are safe

[Sean1875]

Massive goal, a win in our next 2 games and thats us safe. Definitely do able :agree:

[TowerHibs]

Looking forward to the thread about Malpas reaction. Went straight to the guy giving him pelters who couldn't take it

[Bristolhibby]

Beat Ross County on Tuesday and we are safe.

We'd be on 38, RC on 34 with one game left.

Massive game!

J

[Bristolhibby]

It makes me feel dirty but c'mon Hearts tomorrow.

J

[Hibercelona]

We need to take a lift from this and press on. This won't count for much if we don't pick up momentum.

Roll on the next game! :aok:

[Gatecrasher]

So we're 2 ahead if killie and 1 ahead of RC? and we play those 2 in the final 2 games. C'mon the hearts tomorrow :greengrin

[SaulGoodman]

By far the better team today, take a point in the end, A win on Tuesday and we're sorted

[Berwickhibby]

Not according to the BBC League table :confused:

I think we'll beat them

Yes, the result was a victory for hard work over massive bad luck. With just bad luck we would have won this game 3.1

[Keith_M]

I admire everybody's optimism but, after so long unable to win a game, what makes anybody think we'll do it on Wednesday?

This is yet another game when Hibs have blown it. We needed a win today.

[Keith_M]

Yep, but it's another opportunity lost. We hear a different reason practically every week, Hearts scored from two poorly defended corners last week, but the bare fact is that we are just not winning a game.

Of course I want to see them prove me wrong but the fact is that I still see no reason for optimism that we can suddenly win a match.

But I'm saying I think we can suddenly win because we did hit the post twice among other chances, and we scored :greengrin

[GreenLake]

The tide is turning.

[Brightside]

We deserved that goal, even if you think otherwise. :greengrin

We certainly deserved the goal and should have had 2 or 3 today. BUT whenever any teams attack it does feel like they are going to score. Maybury and Lewis were decent today but those CH's are beyond bad.

I actually thought Mcgivern had a good game :duck:

Again, thought Nelson was a weak link

[Onion]

Easily the best 45 in weeks. Absolutely battered Thistle who must have thought it was Xmas at 0-1 HT. At the end a gutsy point that might just be the most important of the season. Now Butcher can plan a win on Tuesday and we're safe. We deserved more than a point today and the team showed real fight.

Only neg was Thompson's injury. Will be a big miss for us.

[Brightside]

I actually thought Mcgivern had a good game :duck:

Really... he gave the ball away with almost every pass. He also didn't bother to run back when Partick almost score there second. Im sick if the sight on the white haired bugger.

[Pretty Boy]

Thought McGivern was culpible in the lead up to the goal and it was his bad 'pass' that gave the ball away for the sending off.

Same question could have been said back in 2012 v the Pars last game of the season.

Oh well, I tend to look away when the ball is anywhere near our defence so what do I know!

[dmc1875]

AWAY! Nelson was OK and a big threat in the Thistle box, but to say McGivern (who was culpable at the goal more than Nelson and basically got him sent off) was much better... :confused:

How a guy like McGivern can trap a ball the way he does, then plays woeful passes the next minute I have no idea.

[SonOfTortolano]

Remember the thistle game under Fenlon and we mugged them with a 1-0 away win....brutal game for us that day but we won..

Could be karma today..

[Keith_M]

Same question could have been said back in 2012 v the Pars last game of the season.

J

We had Leigh Griffiths and Gary O'Connor, who scored 11 and 16 goals respectively. We went in to the game off the back of a win against Aberdeen and our previous win was only three games earlier.

I was convinced then that we were staying up.

[weonlywon6-2]

I thought there was a lot of guts shown by the players today and that we actually played ok.

It feels like a victory but it is a massive point for us.

What also was a pleasant change is i did not hear one fan have a go at any player from the famous five

Well done hibs,and well done the fans who turned up in great numbers

[Golden Bear]

Today proves yet again how important a fit Kevin Thomson is to Hibs.

[Lago]

Yep, but it's another opportunity lost. We hear a different reason practically every week, Hearts scored from two poorly defended corners last week, but the bare fact is that we are just not winning a game.

Of course I want to see them prove me wrong but the fact is that I still see no reason for optimism that we can suddenly win a match.

But look on the bright side Tues may well give you the opportunity to post another negative ' I told you ' posts.

[emerald green]

Thought McGivern was culpible in the lead up to the goal and it was his bad 'pass' that gave the ball away for the sending off.

Agree with this. I''ll be accused of being negative no doubt, and honestly I try hard not to be, but that display in such an important fixture, was really very poor from Hibs, and that's putting it mildly. How many saves did the Thistle keeper have to make in the second half? McGivern, Nelson, Craig, Harris, Collins & Whatmore, when they came on, all poor IMO. Maybury not much better. Cummings had no support, and never looked like getting the better of his markers. No team can win games carrying so many passengers. And, as usual, our defending for Thistle's goal was ridiculous.

[Pretty Boy]

To be honest I thought we were ok today.

The goal was a comedy of errors, both CBs culpible and the sending off was just crazy. Our central defence is obviously a huge problem. Despite the goal I thought Stanton was poor by his standards today and Harris continues to worry me.

On the positives I thought we showed great heart to keep battling away and get the point. It was bit huff and puff and not great quality but eventually we got the goal. Thought Stevenson and Maybury played well, Craig was better than he's been in weeks and Robertson got another important bit of game time.

[Keith_M]

But look on the bright side Tues may well give you the opportunity to post another negative ' I told you ' posts.

I would like to hereby apologise to those faint of heart that can't cope with hearing the truth.

You are all welcome to continue living in La-La Land and pretend everything is going to be OK.

I, being a right misery guts, will sit out here in reality and moan continually about facts, whether people like it or not



:wink:

[stoneyburn hibs]

Would have been a travesty if we got nothing from that game.
Craig has found his new position at centre half.

[NOLA]

considering our run of form, todays draw feels like a win, confidence might have risen because of that, just need to go into tuesdays game with self belief again.

[emerald green]

A point we now need a wee Yam win the morn.... A win or at least a point on Tuesday and beat Killie next weekend.

I just find it really galling, to put it mildly, that Hibs are hoping for HOMFC (relegated) to do us a favour by beating Killie. I'm sick and tired of Hibs being in this situation. If we stay up, there must be no repeat of this torture for a third season in a row.

I know it's crazy. And I agree no more!!

[Thecat23]

Not ashamed to say I'll be wanting Hearts to win tomorrow. But a win on wed will keep us up and if we play with the spirit we did today then we will.

The luck Partick got combined with great goalkeeping got them the point. We deserved more than a point today IMO.

I'm thinking of going up from Aberdeen ... Hibs what have you done to me ?!
4 games in a row 5 for the Kilmarnock game : if we don't stay up it's my fault

I think the players didn't hide today and the crowd applauded them off at half time despite being 1-0 down

On form Watmore should start

[cabbageandribs1875]

Really... he gave the ball away with almost every pass. He also didn't bother to run back when Partick almost score there second. Im sick if the sight on the white haired bugger.



McGivern is on a par with nelson for sheer lack of quality in his passing, and to cap it all off for him it was yet another of his abysmal passes that led to nelson making that stupid tackle

[Golden Bear]

Today was a game of two halves - with a twist.

I thought we were by far the superior side in the first half yet we contrived to go in at half time a goal down. A mixture of bad luck, great goalkeeping by the Thistle keeper, poor defending by us, and sometimes poor decisions by our midfield/strikers made me think the worse.

My thoughts were compounded with the injury to KT early in the second half. Thereafter Thistle were the more enterprising side and looked more likely to increase their lead than we were capable of producing an equaliser. We resorted to the long aimless punt in the general direction of Collins and whoever else happened to be in the vicinity. It was horror scene fitba and the equaliser when it did come was against the run of play but may yet prove to be a defining moment in this instantly forgettable season.

[Stevie Reid]

It's funny how things work out. Pat Fenlon's last game against Hearts saw us batter them for 45 minutes whilst playing with verve and intensity, with only their goalkeeper keeping them in it - we dropped off in the second half, but still missed gilt edged chances and it was a travesty that we lost.

Today was similar in many ways, though we were much better in that Hearts game than we were today (and Thistle better than Hearts were that night), yet here we are (myself included) encouraged that things may be turning just in time for us to hopefully secure our safety. It's just funny how a performance that was nowhere near as good as one that was deemed unacceptable by many a few months ago, is now seen as a positive - and really shows just how far we have fallen under Butcher.

FWIW, I enjoyed the game today and thought we played well at times, easily meriting a point. I'm also not looking to reopen any Fenlon debates - I realise that for many he outstayed his welcome long before that Hearts game, and regardless of the performance, it was a bad result too far. It was just something that came to mind whilst watching the game today.

[greenpaper55]

Compared to the last game against thistle i thought we were much better, the previous game we were played off the park but got a draw at ER but yesterday we were the better side even with the centre backs we have , a bit encouraged for Tuesday night .

Looked like it to me as well. Also got very lucky with the goal bouncing back off him and trundling into the net. Can't believe we didnt score more than one. Craig should've been tapping it into the net after the Nelson header off the post but he didn't anticipate it.

[emerald green]

I thought the boy Doolan was offside for their goal yesterday. Having seen the highlights I'm convinced I'm right.

I shouted for offside straight away. Yet another dodgy decision goes against Hibs. Yet the linesman flags offside against Forster for a perfectly good headed goal at PBS. The football cliché is that these things even themselves out over a season. Well, it's time we got one in our favour for a change. Have I just got the green tinted specs on? Can anyone recall any ridiculous decisions in Hibs favour this season?

[500miles]

Looks like Nelson's hand is playing Doolan onside.

You can only play someone onside with a part of the body which can legally play the ball. The hand doesn't come into consideration.
