Falkirk 0 - 1 Hibernian (Cummings pen) FT

[Sergey]

See you Saturday!

Dulwich 1-1 is a right result!

[SaulGoodman]

What about Griffiths goal that we never got against the Hearts (off the u/s of the bar)? Those lost points would have probably kept us up?

Good point re Griffiths but different season

[Hannah_hfc]

Shaky times, hope Fontaine on calms things down a bit

Hibs can't get hold of the ball at the moment, It's been all Falkirk for the last 10mins. when we do get it we are gifting possession back. Mcginn caught out with the ball deep in the hibs half, Falkirk swing a ball into the back post but well defended by Mcgregor. Attendance; 5429

Attendance for a midweek Tuesday game is excellent imho!

[SaulGoodman]

@HibsOfficial: 88: Sibbald tries to win back possession, but he knocks the ball out of play. #Hibs lead 1-0 going into the closing stages #FFCvHFC

[Aldo]

Torture. Cmon Hibs. See this out

[SaulGoodman]

@HibsOfficial: 89: Henderson lets fly, but it goes over the bar #FFCvHFC

[Aldo]

Possession now is a must. Get the ball into feet and run it into the corners.

Cmon

[SaulGoodman]

@HibsOfficial: 90: Miller is flagged offside for Falkirk #FFCvHFC

[Thecat23]

It sounds like we've stolen the 3 points here if things remain the same. Cmon Hibs!

All us first half. All them second!

Hope we hold out.

[Ronniekirk]

3 points is 3 points (praying it stays like this) and you sometimes need a bit of luck (which has deserted us in the past).

CMON HIBS!!

Sounds similar to livi game where we held on but we let them have too butch possession Makes it stressful last few minutes , don't wNt to be going through this too often ,but three points is three points

[SON OF PADDY]

Listening to the game on the radio
Preston and McLean are spewing !!
What a ****ing disgrace that pair are,
Great win for the Hibees. ggtth

[Onion]

Come on Hibs. You DESERVE this win, despite the Yam/Hun loving commentator fuds.

0-1 Hibs :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Great win !

[LancsHibs]

Didn't sound pretty but a huge 3 points tonight:thumbsup:

[Squealing pig]

Onwards and upwards

[California-Hibs]

Big big win and keeps the winning streak going. Up to 2nd. Let's keep this form going Hibs! Delighted!

[lucky]

The result is all that counts. Roll on Saturday. As for Radio Scotland, who cares we won

[Peevemor]

Yes! That'll do me.

[basehibby]

Yaaaas - that'll do - nice to hear the BBC Jamtard muppets getting upset as well :na na:

[Cheshire Hibby]

Great 3 points Hibs. Thanks to all posters for the updates. Now for another glass of vino.

[IanM]

Don't underestimate how vital those 3 points just were. Battle hardened. We can save our performances for the Rangers

[jimmythefish]

Good win well done Hibs & git that rite up ye Houston ya plum

[SaulGoodman]

Let's just appreciate we the fact we weren't playing Maidstone Utd. We could've been humped!

[green day]

Lets not turn this into a "aye but we played crap" thread.

Apparently The The Huns played crap on saturday.........and got 3 points.

We can do the same.

Now to consolidate 2nd place.

BTW, you could almost hear Prestons seeth:greengrin:greengrin:greengrin

[Gatecrasher]

Sometimes you have to win ugly and that sets us up nicely for the weekend.

[Jim44]

In a way I'm glad it was an ugly win. It'll scunner the OAM Hibs-haters.

[Libby Hibby]

Well done Hibs...8 wins out of our last 9 games in all competitions, excellent stuff...Big, Big 3 points tonight

[Sprouleflyer]

Listening to that 2nd half was brutal. Good result, but we have to play better and smarter if we want to attempt to catch Rangers if they slip up.

Also, what was that crap about asking Falkirk fans at half time about the penalty, have sport sound ever done that before?

[Onion]

Massive 3 points for Hibs tonight. This was as good as a cup tie where the win was all that mattered.

All we need now is for Mr Houston to vent and get banned for being a complete idiot.

[weecounty hibby]

Well done Hibs, great win at a tough place to get 3 points. Oh and **** off BBC, never heard anything like it. Biased, jambo loving ****ers

[nonshinyfinish]

Don't celebrate too soon, after that disgraceful refereeing display and Hibs' blatant cheating, there's every chance the result could be overturned on appeal.

[green day]

Houston sounds like a total radge Sunday League manager - what a bammer

[greenlex]

I'll take the same on Saturday thanks.

[hibsbollah]

Oh shut the fuvk up bbc. What a bunch of dicks honestly. Have you ever heard the like of this ****ing moaning?

[zlatan]

Clean sheet and a very impressive win, looks like our huge strength in depth helped see it out. Huns game at Easter Road is monstrous for is in terms of giving them a run for the title or not but we should really be cantering a top 2 finish.

[Greenblood70]

Ground out the 3 points - showed quite a bit of character there.

Now lets all get thru in numbers on Saturday to Kirkaldy and roar the boys on to another victory.

[Bostonhibby]

Well done Hibs, great win at a tough place to get 3 points. Oh and **** off BBC, never heard anything like it. Biased, jambo loving ****ers

:agree: Well done Hibs, important 3 points. Should ring open all mouthpieces and tell them to relax, the yam will get their penalty at the weekend.It really is becoming embarrassing.

[Big_Franck]

Huge 3 points tonight, didnt matter how we got them we had to close that gap.

Now lets beat Raith on Saturday to close the gap to 5 points and put pressure on the rangers for their game in Paisley on Sunday.

[Thecat23]

These are the games where we need to dig deep and win ugly. That will do me nicely and will really lift the boys now and keep the winning run going.

[Bishop Hibee]

Well done Hibs...8 wins out of our last 9 games in all competitions, excellent stuff...Big, Big 3 points tonight

This. Well done to the 1800 who travelled. This glory hunter will hopefully be in Kirkcaldy on Saturday 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

[rotherhamrob]

Great result. It's been a while since I was that nervous listening to a midweek game in october. Now on to Saturday .

[greenlex]

Can I just take this opportunity to remind that Plum Houston it's about getting the ball in the net.😜

[trev the hat]

Well done Hibs !! Done exactly what was required 3points.
A win v Raith puts a 4 point gap between 2nd/3rd. Keep the momentum 👍

[Fogzie]

Gon the Hibees. Great 3 points. Another win on Saturday and the Daily ****** will go into meltdown looking for stories to unsettle us. Peg these Soap Dodgers back and win the Title. GGTTH

[lucky]

Houston was not to bad in his interview. Stubbs claiming Hibs should have a pen earlier but admits it was baffling performance from the ref.

We just have to collect 3 points every game. That is all.

Well done tonight Hibs.

[zlatan]

Our next 3 games shape the rest of our season imo, away to Raith and St Mirren with home game at the huns there as well. Huge fixtures for us with a cup quarter final thrown in for good measure.

[Col2]

Sportsound at the point of requesting a minutes silence on Saturday given the travesty of tonight. Preston at half time talked about how this impacts Houston livelihood and it's a disgrace and so so so unfair.

The Rangers and the cheats have had 18 penalties, all stone wallers of course yet we have had 2 in total and we are at the point of Sportsound asking for an independent enquiry.

GIRUY.

Surprised they didn't just stick a few crosses into the box.

Was the forster goal that was wrongly chopped off for offside. That goal would've kept us up imo!!

[sleeping giant]

Don't know why Houston didn't just instruct his players to cross ball into our box.
Seemingly , that's how you beat Hibs eh housty.
Baffling

Sorry pal, we can't put pressure on the rangers, haven't you heard? They're already planning for a European place next year

[matty_f]

Massive win, i've said for a while now that we have no margin for error if we want to win the league.

Our form has to be win, win, win, win. We need to be relentless and that means going to places like Falkirk and coming back with the points no matter how it was done.

Superb result, i genuinely couldn't care if we fluked it or totally deserved it, we got the win and we move on to Saturday where we need the exact same outcome - three points.

Get in there Hibs, well done.

[hibsbollah]

Don't think Stubbs likes Houston much. 'Falkirk get bodies behind the ball and make it difficult for us to play'

[basehibby]

Good to hear Stubbs - giving as good as he got - pointing out stridently that Hibs were NOT awarded a deserved penalty for a push on Gray before admitting that he was surprised to be awarded the one he got. Also making the GOOD point that a 4th official would be a reasonable measure with only 2 games on.

Wtf anyone else just get a blast of country music on the radio?,****ing amateurs

[The_Exile]

I'm absolutely delighted, sounds like we were under the cosh for periods of that game but saw it out, this year is about picking up points and getting out this division and this is what it'll take, Raith next, bring it on.

[hfcok]

The reporter is trying to get both managers into trouble, keep asking their opinion about the refs !!!!!

[Stax]

Stubbs interview was quality. Wee dig at Houston for his 'balls into the box' comment against us last season. Then goes one further and takes the wind out of everyone's sails and questions why no 4th official tonight & shi** standard of refs all round.

[SaulGoodman]

Anyone see Falkirks Twitter? Said they were undone by a harsh penalty decision.

Cue dozens of replies from HIBS fans saying "Deal with it" :hilarious

I hope we now get a a clearly offside goal and Falkirk get a player sent off for doing F*** all. Karma's a bitch as someone on sportsound once said..love that. Karma's a bitch. canny mind who said though:wink:

We can use it to our advantage if we're clever and we all stick together imo. The same psychology that Fergie used to use with his Aberdeen sides.

Regardless of that tho it is truly cringeworthy how obvious the BBC hatred of Hibs is. I despise Preston et all - the sooner they are all given their cards the better as far as Im concerned.

[O'Rourke3]

0-1 Just back. 3 points with a poor overall display. Bad for the heart great for the spirit. :flag::flag::flag:

Imagine the meltdown if we somehow clawed back the 8 points on The Rangers! I think we would hear grown men cry on the radio and I'm being serious here 😂

[O'Rourke3]

Stubbs on the radio after Housty. Housty unhappy about the decision but not over the top. So what was Alans view? A bit surprised however maybe the ref realised he should have given the stonewall 10 seconds earlier.....

Sent via the bushes @ EM

[cabbageandribs1875]

have to give credit to the defence tonight, falkirk were a pretty decent team in that 2nd half and pushed forward constantly, i honestly don't think we should have got the penalty we did get but think we possibly could have got one not long before when gray(i think) was pushed in the box, luckily the referee turned down the 28 falkirk appeals for penalties...jings what a shower of moaning minis they falkirk weans are ffs, and absolutely ridiculous the BBC guy asking stubbs what his thoughts are about the refereeing in the championship, no wonder he stalled for a few seconds to answer wtf do they want him to say jeezo





p.s. pies and bovril were awrite...and cheapish :greengrin

[emerald green]

I can't remember the last time Hibs won a game, especially away from home, from a penalty.

Yet that w***** Preston is whinging and moaning about it. Time for him to go. Amateurish, biased, bitter wee Yam. GIRFUY.

Sportsound has been an embarrassment for a while now and tonight just underlines that. Absolutely shocking evenings work from the BBC muppets.from what I've heard or seen from Hibernian fans on here tonight, we should be organising a picket for the next time that BBC mob are expected at Easter Road. do our club's Directors actually pay attention, as to the way we are treated on this altogether "unbiased" match report programme? it has stuck out like a sair thumb for years that most on their programme have some sort of unbelievable gripe, about Hibernian fc. would love to see an organised boycott of sorts, to get our message across. this is totally unacceptable, from an organisation that we all pay for!

Out of interest, although you could say disinterest, is the BBC ban of Ibrox still on the go? Given that BBC Alba had their game tonight, I suppose my question is answered. Seems it didn't last long and they're back brown- nosing as usual.

[Ozyhibby]

Massive result tonight for us. I'm convinced they will drop points soon but we need to be able to take advantage and apply some pressure.
May have been a ropey performance but the result matters above all else and it was a tricky away tie. Same again in Saturday and bring it down to 5 points.

[PatHead]

Great to see us dig out a gritty 3 points. Defence were excellent and left Falkirk to nothing more than a few half chances.

We would have dropped points in those circumstances previously.

[majorhibs]

Pen or no their # pens against ours- c'mon? Behave! One thing for me Fonts sub was timely by the bench, was thinking then shore up the midfield & try to keep possession, but the big man coming in fresh imo was what was needed when they tried the route 1 aerial barrage.

[California-Hibs]

Just watched the penalty, lets be honest, never in a million years is it a penalty and we'd be absolutely fuming if that had went against us!! :rotflmao: You know what though, those types of penalties are dished out far too often for Hearts, Rangers and the likes, so it's about time we got one of those ourselves! Nicely dispatched Jason! Clearly one of the falkirk fans seen losing the head alittle bit at him as he celebrated. Superb!

[Peevemor]

On first seeing it, I thought the penalty looked soft but if you look carefully, the Falkirk player leads with his elbow which would have been much more obvious from the Referee's viewpoint.

[Allant1981]

Just seen the penalty on ssn, very soft as i thought he ran in to the falkirk player but will take it all day long, these games against falkirk are never going to be easy so will take the win

[Hibby Bairn]

I'm not sure we sat back. Our midfield completely fell out the game. They looked fitter. Surprised Boyle didn't come on as huge open spaces 2nd half to take advantage of.

[B.H.F.C]

Didn't think our midfield played well, with the ball. Loads of poor passes. But didn't think the fitness looked an issue. The way Falkirk played the ball was 30ft above their heads for most of the second half.

[jodjam]

I enjoyed it last night. It was a different sort of game to what we will mostly watch at ER this season. First half was ok. Carved out a couple of good chances. Second half was backs to the wall and we saw it through with Oxley not making too many saves.

[Borderhibbie76]

For all the Falkirk bombardment in the last 25 mins or so...I can only recall Ox making 1 really good save...an instinctive block. Yet in that same period both Dom and Mcgeoch could and prbably should have scored for us. So they might have huffedcand puffed but we never really looked like conceding.
