Great first half from the Hibs youngsters. Could have easily been 6 or 7.

[PatHead]

Are they playing the same style of football as the first team? Has it altered from last season?

Just wondering if a common style has been created.

They are playing a diamond formation in the middle. Wing backs with 2 up front. Jake Sinclair must have read the comments about him as he has upped his game

[StarMan10]

Right on cue Sinclair completes his hat-trick.. 5-1

[Golden Bear]

The feel good factor is slowly but surely returning.

Should he get a game in the first team?

[Hamish]

Hope the fans are using their hands to remind the DU officials and supporters the score.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Right on cue Sinclair completes his hat-trick.. 5-1

Does this mean we have ended Utd's U-20's team? :confused:

[StarMan10]

6-1 Lewis Allan with his second of the game

Gaun yersel Lewis. I hope he goes on and gets his hat trick.

[Hamish]

Hibs now 1/25000 on Hills.

Worth a fiver?

[H18S NX]

Well done the young team :aok:

[Nando™]

Dundee United knew what would have happened so they merely allowed us to score a 6th goal :agree:

[StarMan10]

Finished 6-2

[marinello59]

Well done to the Under 20's. :thumbsup:

[Golden Bear]

Finished 6-2

:aok:

One of my favourite scorelines.

[oconnors_strip]

Could have been 8 or 9 as Stanton hit woodwork a couple of times and their keeper made a couple of good saves.

Was a very enjoyable game to watch, well done lads!

[Heisenberg]

Well done Joe Mcbride and the boys :thumbsup:

[weonlywon6-2]

Superb result :thumbsup:

[Gmack7]

Sinclair and Allan may have edged infront of the heff, there confidence must be high

[J-C]

Very good win indeed and god to see some impressive performances, McBride seems to be making them tick.

[andrew70]

Hibs were superb in spells today. Their work ethic and defensive work was what impressed me the most. Mirrored the recent revival of the first team. The shape was excellent and even when the left hand side of the back four changed everyone knew their jobs.

The midfield, though, was what really stood out for me. All the players interchanging and moving all over the place, making it very hard to defend against. When required though they all worked extremely hard to get back behind the ball and make challenges thwarting possible chances for United. Good job and apologies for a long winded post but impressive stuff from the young Hibees.

[Jonnyboy]

I'm enthused by Lewis Allan. Boy's excellent for his age

[brog]

Great result considering it was only 48 hours since many of the team played 120 mins at Pittodrie. Well done boys, we're getting there!

Much the same then, thanks for letting me know. Should make it easier for players to step up to the main team.

Good to see that Stubbs has the U20 playing the same system as the 1st, a bit of continuity finally at our club re football tactics.

Leeann starting to deliver on one of the main issues she thought was wrong at the club ,namely the Dissconnect Between Academy and First Team and how that is bridged Billy stark commented recently on the new position Handlimg was playing in the under 20s set up ,and since then he has been in First Team and Stark clearly thought that this was an exciting development and was going to be naming him in his squad for Scotland under 21 s .
The transformation in style of play and results seems very tangible and folk also commented on teams general fitness v Aberdeen and days later some of these same players are turning over a team with a good youth set up itself ,so maybe the Backroom changes are starting to have a positive impact

[Leith_Hibee]

Was also good to see all the 1XI staff at the game and big Farid was down too in a pair of the worst trainers known to man (and that is no exageration...even Darren Jackson was slagging him and you've seen his threads!)
What I've also noticed is there are quite a few lower league teams represented at these games, potentially trying to pick up the odd loan deal in Jan. Lewis Allan looks very good and it would be interesting to how he would do if farmed out on loan.
Decent wee crowd considering it was a 3.30pm kick off, over 100 at the game.
