Nah. The atmosphere round ER these days isn't good and it could be poisonous come Saturday if the worst happens.

Not a good time to play the under 20's.

[Craig_in_Prague]

Does it matter?

4-5-1, hoofball, a few hopeless crosses, gift a goal, the cheat to show a red card and/or a soft pen to them.

Mcgivern, Lewis, Nelson etc are what we have at our disposal. FFS when will these type of players GTF from Hibs? We have far too many players who pretend to be footballers, with zero technical ability or positional awareness. Bunch of wage-thieving imposters. Sick of the lot o them.

[CB_NO3]

Same back 4 as last night. Craig on the left, Cairney on the right with Stanton and Robertson in the middle. Collins up front with Cummings playing off him.

I know it will never happen but I would like to see Taiwo and Robertson in the middle with Stanton playing off Collins.

Harris was ineffectual last night at best. The kid looks lightweight and scared. Lewis was one of the best Hibs players last night and gave everything.

My Team:

Keeper for Leith Athletic, don't know his name but looked pretty good last time i walked past.

Back line:

Guy in the pub who blocked every move i made to get past him to the bar and the other three who were equally adept at preventing me slaking my thirst.

Mid:

Robbies bar, the guy who was carrying three pints and managed to jink in and out of everyone and got the beers to the table - without spilling anything.

the rest ...anyone from Leith Links on a saturday or sunday morning/some of the community partnership kids who came on at half time a couple of weeks ago.... anyone, ****....!

Manager - the old guy in Leith who wears the kilt and who tries to flog anything that's not nailed down.....

I like watmore but last night was the worst he has played

[Gettin' Auld]

Pick eleven battlers (if we actually have them) and try to mould a makeshift team out of them.

We don't enough skill or guile in the side, so we'll have to rely on being 100% up for it and that means 'battlers' in every position.

[bigwheel]

it's quite telling that none of these formations look anything like a team that can pull out a result...we are going to have to win it through sheer hard work and discipline..

We are more likely to get a goal from a Stanton or a Craig if we can the ball to them around the box. And for those who are suggesting Haynes to play in the game that will determine our season...come on...that's got to be a wind up!

[Gmack7]

I think the pressure might be to much for some of the younger lads like Harris and Cummings so I would prob stick in Collins and Cairney,we might also go with OTJ in the defensive midfield slot

The whole game was on BBC Alba at 10pm last night.

[dmc1875]

Interesting to see how the bookies have the game at the weekend.

Hibs favourites 11/10 Killie outsiders at 2/1. Draw is 11/5

James Collins or Kris Boyd both 11/2 to be first goalscorer.... :cb

[dmc1875]

This team, bringing in McPake for Hanlon, should start as the Killie team will be very similar the the one fielded that day.

I'd put Forster and Cummings up front. If we're continuing to pump high balls up top might as well get somebody up there that can win a header.

[GreenCastle]

Maybury, Craig and Robertson have probably been our best 3 players in last couple of games.

I would go with..4-1-4-1 when defending and 4-3-3 when attacking

Williams

Maybury
McPake
Forster
McGivern

Stevenson

Craig
Robertson
Stanton
Watmore / Cairney

Collins or Cummings

I like Taiwo but seems he's out of favour?! Collins I think isn't great but at least is more suited for long ball.

Cummings is due a goal but keeps getting crap service - though his pace can cause opposition problems.

Maybury has done well but 3 games in a week and he's due a bad game.

McPake - risk but last ever game for club possibly - could be well up for it ?

Harris - needs put on bench and Watmore needs to show what he did when he first arrived and go around players. When Cairney plays we always seem to do ok but maybe Cairney and Maybruy = slow right side.

Stevenson just sits in and destroys opposition attacks - he will protect back 4 (stop supply to Boyd) and allow others to go forward and allow us to score!

God help us! But that team could sneak a win.

[GreenCastle]

I think Cummings will improve but seems that playing a young guy up front who has never scored a professional goal may be adding serious pressure to the team and player.

The other options is Collins or Haynes..

If we go 4-4-1-1- we will loose on Saturday.

[SunshineOnLeith]

Williams, McPake, whichever other 9 look remotely up for the fight in training this week.

[Delboy4]

3-5-2 for me

Williams

Forster McPake McGivern

Harris Robertson Craig Stanton Stevenson

Collins Cummings

McPake back as captain ( might not be 100% fit but he'll fight the cause )
Harris and Stevenson to track back to make it a back 5 when defending
Collins to fight and bully up front for Cummings to hopefully play off.

C'mon Terry, don't play a 451 FFS

GGTTH
:flag:

[hhibs]

McPake up top

The merits in this would be Killie would not have a game plan for that option,it would give us muscle up top,it might lift the team by his leadership/passion.

One possible downside,Thomson would be desperate to send him off to totally screw us over,riot ensues,hope that cheating bar steward is bricking it.

All else has been tried nothing left for it but for the "Hail Mary" option.

Any news on Kevin Thomson?

Any news on Kevin Thomson?

Highly unlikely he'll make it but I hope I am wrong.

[dmc1875]

Any news on Kevin Thomson?

Pretty certain to miss the game. If he plays he will not be fully fit.

We should look back at the 3-0 game at ER and play the same team with McPake for Hanlon and go at them from the word go and make them nervous.

Killies terrible defensive record, woeful away record and the fact they havent kept a clean sheet in 13 of their last 14 games or won or drawn a game after a win since the turn of the year should mean a shaky start from them

Nelson and McPake are more experienced and good in the air. Therefore I think they will handle Boyd better than if Forster was playing.

Haynes scored against Killie earlier in the season and has a bit of pace. Cummings has done well but time to give Haynes and Collins a shot because we need to have a go and throw everything at Killie. Bring Cummings on if needs be.

This is only my opinion.

:agree: Back four should be same as Tuesday night. Nelson is shocking and McPake isn't fit enough to come back in a game where the stakes are so high.

Also agree with you about Haynes (poor player). This is where things get difficult but, for me, 2 up front - Collins & Cummings.

Is Thomson definitely not available?

And you are entitled to your opinion, it's just I don't agree with it:greengrin.

Forster is better in the air than either IMO and at least he has scored with a few headers since Crimbo.

Ross County, Motherwell, Dundee Utd and Hearts off the top of my head.

I think our best defender in the air is McGivern.

[dmc1875]

It is incredibly important that Nelson and Foster both start IMO. They are both our main goal threats. Whatever your feelings regarding Nelson he HAS to start.

A big back line due to Killies lack of pace should be ok to deal with Boyd (hopefully). So I would have Forster at RB as he played well against Killie there last time, with Nelson and McPake in the middle and McGivern at left back.

Push Stevenson up to LW, drop Harris and bring in Cairney. I would also drop Cummings for Collins.

For once I hope we do pump the balls into the channels and play to win corners and free kicks as that is were we are most dangerous.

[TheFamous1875]

A team of our 'big' players (sans Hanlon):


Williams.

Forster. Nelson. McPake. McGivern.

Robertson. Tudur Jones.

Craig. Stanton. Stevenson.

Collins.


Stevenson playing a dynamic role going forward, back and in the middle. He's a must. Craig in an attacking role, utilising his talents. He's looked better further up the park the last few games. Tudur Jones to give the authority his billing suggests.

He's not shown it, maybe he'll rise to the occasion. McPake and Nelson as experienced pros ready to step up to the plate (wishful). McGivern linking with Stevenson could bring out the best in him too - Stevenson provides cover as McGivern gets forward. Forster allowed more freedom to link with Craig due to experienced pros guiding him through (I hope).

Stanton in the middle as always, linking the attack and midfield which leads us to Collins. Collins (unless Heffernan is available) is our most experienced striker and we can only hope that a more focused, attacking play in the final third.

Like stated, this is a 'big' player XI. This the team you would EXPECT to get us through this, although the fact that this is the same players who got us in this mess in the first place is too evident to go for what should be a winning team. This is not my pick, it's just the pick we SHOULD have at a time like this.

I don't know what we can do. I guess this is just me being annoyed at the influx of charlatans in these turbulent years.

Harsh on Maybury but I think going with a back four of Foster, McPake, Nelson and Mcgivern gives us a chance from set plays. No danger will it be two up top so two sitters in midfield of Robertson and Stevenson with Stanton, Craig and Handling behind Collins. Bully the **** out of Killie.

Agree to extent kids had there chance at Ross county who were there to be beaten or at least draw with and they didn't manage it and pressure is taking it's toll
Cairney provides more threat if fit and in right frame of mind to take players on and cut inside and cause problems for defences .He has good assist rate and can provide a decent delivery We know he will tire so need replaced but that can be planned for .
McPake I haven't seen in under 20 s so don't know where he is fitness wise .he will be desperate to play and in last run out against Dunfermline scored a og and then scored for us with Header ,if T B doesn't think he can do a job he won't play him so will leave that one for T B .
