Berwick Rangers 0 v 4 Hibernian (FT)

[Keith_M]

Hibs head down the A1 on their pre-season tour of England today.

There could be the chance of a first look at our new signing(s).

Maybe Trialists on show?



Any (informative) feedback would be much appreciated by those of us going shopping with the Missus :wink:

[Stuarty27]

Heading down, hopefully weather is nice :)

41 years and 9 months ago, I wish my wife had a "headache" as today I, although I live in Dunbar and the game is only down the road I find myself having to go to Livingston for a birthday celebration. Aaggghhh so much for forward planning eh.

P.S. The weather is lovely down here, sunny and very warm.

[Bostonhibby]

Always good to give the oldest and original Rangers a game, great day out. Much friendlier bunch than the modern day impostors who we have yet to visit for the first time:-)

[bingo70]

What time is kick off today?

[mutley]

What time is kick off today?

3pm, I'm heading down soon

[ionahibby]

In berwick now not bad weather fairly sunny. Was on 11:30 train pretty busy and heavy police presence at train st for some reason!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Is the railway infrastructure still intact or have the marauding hordes not arrived yet? ;-)

It's getting a bit hairy now on the Trains.

I got a text from a mate saying somebody had stolen the Hand Towels on the one he was on!!!

[StarMan10]

No Harris or Heff

[EdinMike]

We definitely need 2 good goal scorers before the season starts..

[R11Loaded]

Think we'll win by 3 or 4 again. Another decent warm up game

Any reason why Forster is behind nelson in the pecking order?

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Be interesting to see how Goldy gets on. Horribine, Doyle and Currie too.

[Brightside]

That first 11 would appear to be what we'll go with.

[Billy Whizz]

That first 11 would appear to be what we'll go with.

Stevenson over Booth?

[J-C]

That first 11 would appear to be what we'll go with.


Swap Todd with Stevenson and put Booth at LB and you'll not be far off

[Ozyhibby]

Any reason why Forster is behind nelson in the pecking order?

Because he kept giving goals away in the 2nd half of last season?

[Hibs90]

Wouldn't read too much into the team tbh.

[J-C]

Because he kept giving goals away in the 2nd half of last season?

And Nelson????????????

[TheFamous1875]

And Nelson????????????

Playmaking extraordinaire! It's worth keeping in mind that Forster is a very promising centre half at the beginning of his career. With Stubbs at the helm and the new regime in place, he could turn out to be a very good player indeed.

No Harris or Heff
We have another game on Tuesday night I think ,so Heff maybe not ready for today Will be interested how many changes he makes for Dunfermline game and hopefully another few players on Trial by then . He maybe feels at this stage we need Experience of Nelson be interested how folk feel he is playing and whether he has confidence back and can he adapt to not just lumping the ball forward

[SteveHFC]

1-0 Gray

@jamiekborthwick: Hearing former Hearts coach Alan Combe is training the Hibernian keepers at Berwick today.

[Hamish]

What price are we to win the league?:greengrin

[Dumfrieshibs]

Surely David Gray wasn't a good enuf signing for us earlier in the week...... Found his level against Berwick obviously ....... :flag:

[CRAZYHIBBY]

Yup , belongs to Melrose and has trained with Hibs for some time
According to the locals as well as being a good prospect has his head screwed on and knows what he wants to do with his career , given the chance !!

Good luck to the lad !!

I had his PE teacher in the cab last year and he told me he expected big things from this young lad.

[SteveHFC]

We're gonna win the league ;-)

[gackohibs]

Great news. I take it we've ditched the long ball nonsense and playing a passing game?

[cabbageandribs1875]

offside 'goal' followed by a real goal :) ...lewis allan 4-0 the visitors



lewis allan just wide

[HoboHarry]

Ochone ochone.... we are still having to rely on goals coming from defenders. Are we still s***e then? :wink:

[cabbageandribs1875]

Ft 0-4

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

8 goals in two games :thumbsup:

[Keith_M]

We are unbeatable.......




:greengrin

[California-Hibs]

Not bothered what people say, although it was only VoL and Berwick Rangers, two 0-4 wins will do wonders for their confidence!

How did Coulson do when he came on?

So glad it sounds like we're getting the ball down and playing it more now! Tuesday against Dunfermline will be the biggest test of the 3 games.

[Stuarty27]

The young boys who came on 2nd half were terrific, number 22 24 and Allan up top looked good.

Great to say Booth back too, offered more in 30mins than are full backs all last season.

Todd was excellent, was disappointed with Cummings, he didn't look interested

[Gatecrasher]

Sounds like another good run out.

[CRAZYHIBBY]

The hibees are back

[CRAZYHIBBY]

This is the first time we've won back to back games since the last time

[gackohibs]

Great news. I take it we've ditched the long ball nonsense and playing a passing game?

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Ochone ochone....

What does that mean?

[iwasthere1972]

I know it's only two wee teams we've beat but under Butcher we would have conceded goals.

Get your season ticket now. Your club needs you.

[Nameless]

tom gardner 0-3 the visitors

Is that the lad we got from Spurs?

[iwasthere1972]

What does that mean?

Ochone is defined as an Irish and Scottish expression of sadness.

[bingo70]

Is that the lad we got from Spurs?

Yes, think it was jonnyboy that was saying Gardner looks a good player

[Aldo]

Is that the lad we got from Spurs?

Think it is.

[HoboHarry]

Used to be an expression of sadness. You must be too young to remember Oor Wullie..... :greengrin

maybe cummings had his head turned from the swansea bids and is looking to leave? surely better to continue here getting 1st team football for a couple of years at least

[EdinMike]

Even though I was at the game 3 years ago, what was the score last time we played them pre season ?

[SteveHFC]

Just back, really impressed with Todd, Gardiner and Allan

[Nevi_SOL]

Brilliant confidence booster with Craig scoring twice in 2 games

[Hibeecal]

I had his PE teacher in the cab last year and he told me he expected big things from this young lad.
Max went to my school and used to score goals for fun for the school team. Reason we won the league and we were scuppered after promotion following him leaving at the end of 5th year to peruse football with hibs. I used to muck about with him at training and out at meggatland. He has pace along with an excellent touch, really hope he goes on to big things at the club. Great lad. Also I should add - He scored a goal to win us the independent schools cup at tynecastle as well so hope his habit of scoring there continues ;)

[O'Rourke3]

Hear hear, great confidence boost for the lads.

[Stuarty27]

Dunno what rest of people thot but it was the usual suspects that were poor, Especially Nelson. This guy should be done under the trades description act.

Foster wasn't that much better mind you when he came.

Defo positives were the young guys, Lewis Allan is a unit and he put himself about really well, held the ball up and scored a nice finish. I really like the number 24 and 22 not sure of there names, the only got 25minutes but looked great. Tom Gardnier looks good too, he needs go baulk up abit but he looks very tidy. Booth great to see back also.

David Gray was good, some nice runs and a couple of well timed challenges. The other trialist I wasn't so impressed with but I'd imagine it must be hard to come into game like thAt. I read somewhere else,he could play centre half which I would be very surprised if that was the case.

All in all an entertaining 90mins and a good day out in the sunshine.

[oconnors_strip]

Is that the lad we got from Spurs?

Yes it is.

Tom has worked very hard the past 12 months and it's starting to show, last season he scored about 8 goals for the eos and under 20s, impressive for a centre half!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Dammit - losing my memory too lol... I was doubting my self when I wrote Oor Wullie but you are right....

Glad to read that! Used to enjoy an Oor Wullie annual as a bairn but, still never knew what you were going on about! :-)

[Brightside]

Sounds like Cummings has done his Hammy.

[Golden Bear]

Effin boo!

That would be a blow, will probably miss the start of the season if its a tear

Good interview although not pushed on transfers. Combe to be a player? Wee boy showed some good touches but dropped the ball too often for my liking.

I know this is a thread.about yesterday's game, but there's something that Stubbs says that really bugs me about Hibs.

He's confirmed Combe is the new goalkeeping coach, there's pictures of Holden taking training, and talk on here from reliable posters that we have signed more than one player - Yet none of this has been announced on the official site. Is it really that surprising that some fans think nothing is going on behind the scenes when we're so bad at releasing news?
