Stokes (merged)

[Shrekko]

:agree:

They are seething.

I find it bizarre that people who are questioning the goalie and one or two other things are being labelled as Hearts fans at the moment.

I'm actually more suspicious of folk who think Oxley is a top keeper and everything in the garden is rosey despite this absolutely horrific run.

I fully agree that players shouldn't be abused at games, but people letting off steam on here are just saying how they feel. Whether they're right or wrong depends on opinion but really insinuating everyone who is unhappy is a Jambo?

There are definitely Saviles on here stirring the pot.

[Ronster117]

We have had a good season up til the last 10 days or so, we were all happy Hibees.... Time to take the last 3 games on the chin and look forward.
big game tomorrow and a cup final to look forward too......time to get behind the team....
:flag:

[Thecat23]

I think it's good people have other opinions imagine how board this place would be. It's the digs at players and folk saying they aren't good enough.

We have shown we are good enough on our day and with huge games coming up it would be good to get some positive threads and chat on the go. Im not happy with the 3 defeats but that's now done nothing I can do but get behind the boys and hope we get back on track starting with Sunday.

[Pete]

You would. You have to accept that not everyone will agree with you and think that everything is rosy in the garden when its not.

Thanks for the advice. Are you suggesting that I can't accept the fact that other people have different opinions to mine?

You're coming across as rather patronising.

100% right.

I am hardly a regular poster but there are some that are never seen when we win (too busy with the JKB circlejerk?) but cannae wait to post when we have a bad spell or there is a hint of unrest.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion and I think the admins do a decent job of staying on top of the obvious gunts - but its still odd behaviour to only post on a hibs fan site when we have a crap run !

You're coming across like that everyone who doesn't agree with the majority on here must be a hearts fan.

Personally I think stokes isn't trying a leg, Cummings is never a footballer, boyles not good enough and fontaines too slow at the back and the less said about Oxley the better. Does that me make a Hearts fan or just a Hibs fan with a different opinion to most on here??

[Thecat23]

Agree not is all rosy, but there is many over the top posts on here over the past week or so. While other posts have raised good points I do feel there is more stirring than anything else.

Firstly, I said a few posts ago that I dint think everyone who has a different opinion is a Jambo so I don't know where that's coming from.

Stokes, Farid and Keatings are all about 5/1 to be the first goalscorer.

He also told me i was a decent golfer, he knows nothing. :greengrin

I've just got a feeling Stokes might just do the business tomorrow. I live in hope.

[NorthNorfolkHFC]

I've just got a feeling Stokes might just do the business tomorrow. I live in hope.

That's because farid has hardly played in the last year. Keatings hadn't scored and stokes doesn't look interested.

I was gutted Dom left but not cause I like the big fella. His hold up play was excellent and fir those that say he's lazy, I wonder what they call stokes.

Anier was also a big loss.

Nae chance as he is stopping off at Wetherby services to wrestle a grizzly bear in the car park at 5am before popping up to wetherspoons in Musselburgh for a large breakfast at opening time then straight onto the pitch at ER at 1.45 in his suit and slip on shoes from the night before.

[Thecat23]

Cheers Steve, I can't see him being involved tomorrow then. If he's not injured and just heading down that's poor form. Players usually told to relax night before games so this is very odd.

He posted some footage - but there is no suggestion that he is actually there....unless he was marching behind the boxer to the ring, I think it's safe to say it wasn't taken by him

[Thecat23]

I've just watched it, no idea if that's his footage or something he's just posted. Be surprised if it's him!

[Steve-O]

So he has a video from someone else's phone on his Instagram? Is that even possible on Instagram?

Can you upload any video onto Istagram? If so, I would like to think someone's sent him it and he's uploaded it

I reckon he's there! Just don't see why he'd upload such a random video. Wonder if the fight was on tv?

You're just in the door and you're having a pop. Maybe make up your mind if you want to contribute to the site, and if you do then it might be an idea to stop slagging it off.

[stoneyburn hibs]

I read on social media that Stokes is Irish and currently plays for Hibs.

[Holmesdale Hibs]

End his loan spell. He's not interested.

So far he's scored two goals, one a tap in and the other a miss hit.

He's got no understanding with Jase, takes the huff when he's no allowed the freekicks and is generally treating the games like he's in an exhibition match.

Flicks and tricks that don't come off when we're getting beat. He stood at the touchline and was trying to entice the Queens player to come to him so he could showboat in the 2nd half...he mis controls it and puts it out of play :rolleyes:

Closest he'll get to Euro 2016 will be creating himself on the upcoming computer game.

Wish we never let Malonga go...

I'm sorry, but **** right off. The guy is quality. Ok so he's a bit rusty, but if you think that makes him not good enough for our current team then your deluded.

I remember first time round, folk saying he was lazy and too fat. That season he went on to become our top goal scorer and we got a million plus for him.

He's the most natural finisher within our budget, so ffs stop moaning about him and be glad you're not watching some of the othe ***** we've had up front over the last 5 years.

[Sir David Gray]

He is a bit of a numpty but not that much.

I heard he is in Las Vegas betting all the HSL money on black.

Exactly, he's done daft things in the past but no way with a cup final coming up and a quarter final would he just go to London. I think he's just uploaded a video someone from the boxing team has sent him.

Would like Stubbs to just go for it tomorrow and try something different Farid stokes partnership we haven't seen yet and Boyle out wide
We are down to the bare bones defensively so best form of defence is attack
Anyone know if Mcgeouch has been training this week

Poor form as you say from him.

You know players shouldn't be out the night before a game, even the pictures are a no no, it should be rest all night, so is he flying in to Edinburgh in the morning going home getting the Hibs kit on and heading to ER for the game, if this is true and he is down South then Hibs should be sending him back along the M8 to Lennoxtown to get back to training on his own there, as that was the case before he came to Hibs..

[marinello59]

Hope you're right TC - if not I agree with SH.

As an aside I spoke with a coach this week who thought Jamie Insall could be a diamond in the rough - couldn't believe the level he'd been playing at and rates him. Nice hearing a neutral view about youngsters and development players.

Don't think he's first team yet but the guy I spoke to commented on his desire - said he loved seeing a player play like it really meant something.

As for tomorrow I'd go for Farid or Stokes through the middle, Boyle and Carmichael each flank.

Have a good feeling about tomorrow have to say (or today)

Sadly these words of obvious commonest sense appear not to get in the way of people wishing to put the booty in. FFS, grow up people and try reading some previous posts before sending him back to Lennoxtown and all the rest. Stokes posts a vid taken by someone in the fighters immediate entourage, voices his support for a guy he apparently knows. He is then subjected to discussion about what he should be doing on the night before a game etc. Very tiresome and not at all helpful. Som people should know better.

It isn't a random video. It's in support of one of his mates - you simply assumed it was him taking the video. Others , myself included , are not assuming that

It's fairly random. It's not like it's a video of the fight itself.

If you put up a UFC video, that's much more random than this.

Nobody has any more evidence that it's NOT his video than anyone who says it is.

The GOC example was merely pointing out that many simply refuse to believe certain things and always think people are out making mischief, when that is not in fact the case.

No, I wouldn't say 'good friends, no...look, if he was there then I'll hold my hands up and apologise to you but I think it is more likely he got sent that video and showed his support by airing it on social media, it would look better from you if thought the same than just say so, rather than pulling up examples that aren't even relavant to try and prove your point, unless, you truly believe or have evidence that he was there...

[bigwheel]

It's fairly random. It's not like it's a video of the fight itself.

If you put up a UFC video, that's much more random than this.

Nobody has any more evidence that it's NOT his video than anyone who says it is.

The GOC example was merely pointing out that many simply refuse to believe certain things and always think people are out making mischief, when that is not in fact the case.

You're coming over like you're feeling sorry for yourself now ...

Its not a big deal is it - wrongly assuming Stokes was in London...

Maybe now you will look at Instagram and think - maybe they don't own that car, eat that food, drink that champagne etc etc etc [emoji3][emoji3]

I've yet to see evidence that the video was posted by anyone else, anywhere else. So, I'll believe it was his in the meantime. If it isn't, then good.

Forgive me if I doubt his commitment, and brain power.

Your point seems to be 'look at what you stupid sheep choose to believe to be false without any proof one way or another'. You, conversely, choose to believe things to be true without any proof one way or another. The 'guilty until proven innocent' angle.

Just show me the evidence he wasn't in London. And let me know when he has a decent game. Hopefully today btw.

My point is there's a video on his Instagram that makes it appear that he may have been in London last night. The end.

Others choose to believe this video belongs to someone else. So far, the only online publisher, that I can see, of this video, is Anthony Stokes.

Look, I saw the video on his page, I thought "wonder where that is?", checked it out, it was London. I wondered what he'd be doing there the night before a game and posted here that it LOOKS like he's in London.

I've personally never shared a video from someone else to my own Instagram, maybe Stokes uses it differently. I noticed these two are mates (other Instagram photos) and it is not outside the realms of possibility that Stokes could have been in his ring walk entourage.

If others believe there is no chance, up to them. I remain sceptical that Stokes was tucked up in bed at 9pm in Edinburgh.

In the end, who cares, but I'd like to think it wasn't his video and he was taking today seriously. His reputation, however, precedes him, and surely nobody can be blamed for doubting him.

Given your views on rehabilitation, I'd have thought you'd have been a bit more generous in giving someone the benefit of the doubt. I once posted a picture of the U.K. from orbit on Twitter. As much as I wish I was, I wasn't in orbit at the time (Chris Hadfield was though).

Not sure you use Instagram. Or have seen Stokes' Instagram. All of it appears to come directly from his own phone bar his very first picture.

Nor am I sure Stokes is 'rehabilitated'.

I was happy when he signed. Already though we have rumours about dressing room unrest, casinos, fighting in changing rooms and genuine photos of him in East Mains with bankrupt gangsters. Coincidence that we've gone downhill recently? I hope so, but can't help but wonder.

You've done it again! The burden of proof is not 'is there ANY chance he could have been there'. I don't believe there is 'No chance' he was there, same as there is not 'no chance' he is responsible for 9/11. With your post history I'm amazed you don't understand this.

Had he posted an Instagram video from his phone of some 9/11 plans, we'd all surely agree there was some chance he had planned it!

It's a video, posted by him, from POV, of a clearly good mate walking to the boxing ring.

So far, there's more evidence he was there than that he wasn't!

Of course, I'm sure a jury would require more evidence, but I'm not trying to convince anyone! Just putting it out there that he may have been in London last night! He may well not have been!

That's because you prob don't follow any of the boxing team that feature in the video. Why would anyone but the team or friends put it up. I'm 100% sure that's a member of the boxers team that's took the video.

Rumours, not facts that's the key word right there. Many Hearts fans started these. Casino night was bull****. As for fighting in the changing room, where the hell has that come from? Because that is utter pish.

Stokes played well today, worked hard and almost scored a great goal.
Kept grafting for whole game.
Now just needs the right strike partner and the right balls in to him

[Mark79]

Agree stokes was more lively and had some clever play at times but his passing inside at times was abysmal.

He had an excellent game I thought - dangerous and direct. Will be a definite starter next week, but with who..?

Played well today until we scored. Everyone was poor after we went ahead but Stokes led the charge of pishness.

[Thecat23]

Stokes played very well today and worked hard. Looked tired last 15 I thought but he was as good as anyone else.

Hibs overall looked shattered near the end and these games seem to be taking there toll now. Still we've done fantastic against top flight teams all season and we're still in this.

Now for the cup final. 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

Perhaps Stubbsy should take the squad to London, not the Costa Del Sol, for the week as Stokesy's visit seems to have done him the world of good. :agree:

Thought Stokes did well today. Best i've seen him play in a while

[Allant1981]

Thought he played well today, holds the ball up well and is good at linking play up, seemed knackered towards the end and id have probably taken him off rather than keatings but hey ho

[Smartie]

Stokes was excellent today.

Faded, tired and totally fell out of the game during the last 20 minutes and should have been subbed but was excellent for most of the game.

Another game under his belt, will be even fitter for the replay.

Stokes now coming onto a game, excellent, just in time for the final.

Better today, but by his own standards, still short of what he's capable of. There were times today I thought, with some if his passing and competing for the ball, there's no way Stokes would have done that in a Celtic shirt.

Your point about tiring in the last 15mins is a slight worry ahead of next week as we will need to put in a shift the bigger pitch is bound to take its toll on some players
So Stubbs needs to not risk anyone who isn't 100 % as we may have to utilise dll three subs next Sunday and we dont want extra time with the reply via I C T so close after
Goes without saying we need to convert more of our chances as any one goal lead with tiring players can be difficult to hang on to as we found out today
But the team will take encouragement from todays display

I know Tynie has a smaller pitch (and is generally a hovel) but I didn't realise that the Hampden pitch was actually any bigger than any other. It seems bigger because of the track and areas behind the goals.

Stokes played really well yesterday, my only disappointment was that his best work was done in providing ball to others, and not being in the position to score goals himself - the exception perhaps was the move where he cracked one off the post for keatings disallowed follow up.

[Beefster]

How do you know what the reality was? Stokes had a decent game so you know 100% he wasn't out the night prior?

Come on. This is getting more ludicrous with every post you make. You made a completely false assumption based on an Instagram video. Suck it up, admit you were wrong and move on or, if you can't do that, don't mention it again. Whatever you do, please stop digging, FFS.

Do you know 100% he wasn't clad in rubber and pishing in Gary Locke's coupon in Bonnyrigg High Street on Saturday night? It's highly highly unlikely but you never know.

I made an assumption. Whether it's false is unknown. It might be.

Supposedly there are 12 witnesses he was in Edinburgh? I could just as easily say I've 24 witnesses that he was somewhere else!

I really don't care where he was.

100% happened, Locke was on fire and Stokesy was just putting him out. Saw a video on instagram clearly showing it, there was a wee bit smoke afterwards.

Certainly a mental picture I could do without. :greengrin

Because he wasn't in London.

Because he wasn't in London.

No matter how many times you say that certain people will argue till they're blue in the face, best to ignore them.

[Steve-O]

Because he wasn't in London.

Says who?

Not bothered if he was or he wasn't as it doesn't seem to have made any difference to performance.

Just send me a picture of Stokes holding Saturday's newspaper at 9pm outside the Balmoral Hotel on Saturday night and I'll admit my assumption was incorrect.

Says two of his close friends. Plus the fact it would be out by now along with pics of him there. I think it's also clear it's the boxing team who has taken the video as well.

Do you still honestly think he was there after all this?

Can show you a video from his phone! :greengrin

Not sure it'd be out as it's hardly a major story. It's more likely he wasn't there, given nothing has been verified but it's still not impossible that someone could easily get a 1 hour flight back to Edinburgh, that's all.

Think some people have gone a bit overboard about the whole thing though - burden of proof, witnesses etc!

It's only yourself that's been constantly banging on about it.
Let it go.

No. We're five days out from a cup final now so, whilst you might not be fussed about where he was, it only takes one unquestioning sheep to read your assumption at the weekend and with a little bit of embellishment, it turns into Stokes being out on the razzle in London either the night before a game or days before a cup final.

Some of us are already pissed off that Stokes being ill last week led to a couple of folk either thinking 2+2=5 or just making up stories and we had all the "he's not changed", "send him back", "get him to ****" nonsense. It even translated to some dip**** along from me at the game on Sunday giving him abuse about it.

That's why folk 'go overboard' about it. Some folk thinks its all harmless fun to insinuate rubbish and/or 'just ask questions'. It's not.

Nope, just been replying to people. Not banging on about it.

I don't know specifically where he was, though I can say with a fair degree of certainty that he was not at the boxing in London.

It doesnt matter. Metaphysical law says that time isn't linear, which means that time travel isn't just possible, it's inevitable.
