[Billy Whizz]

Tuesday 21st Feb, 5pm KO at Oriam

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Probably go to this.

[Kaff]

I think I should be able to get to this, is the Oriam part of Heriot Watt and coming from the Bridge is it easy to get to?

Parking was a nightmare at the Celtic game although it was a large attendance.
Not certain that Hibs and HWU are co-ordinating parking properly.

Hopefully most of the students will have left for the night at this KO time

Expect a youngish Hibs team today

Mainly usual development team, Porteous suspended

[ano hibby]

Any surprise selections in this game i.e. Implications for tomorrow nights game?

[AlanRuff]

1-0 to the sheep.

[DaveF]

Dons 1 up. Their no10 (Ross) flew past Mackie and smashed in a shot from the angle.

[DaveF]

Fraser Murray off - presume injured - replaced by Gallantes. Good game, both teams had chances.

[AlanRuff]

1-1, good touch and finish from Shaw.

Cool as you like

Does appear to be an absolute goal machine.

Why do we play at oriam?

Do all 'big clubs' have to suffer smaller, less significant local rivals using 'their' training centre, or just Hearts?

[DaveF]

Watson did well to win the ball and play Shaw in. He's also had 2 great chances to score himself. Sheep hit the bar.

Anyone can rent it.

Walk in off the street and pay some dough pick a time and Hearts have to adjust to suit good, paying customers.

[21sMay]

Shaw worth a place on the bench for the rest of season ?

Unlikely given he's on loan at stenhousemuir.

[Cod Boy]

Looks Martin and Crane will be at least on the bench tomorrow with them not featuring tonight.

They were in St Andrews earlier this month, Oriam all booked up. The original money SGM gave the Pieman in the 1990's was supposed to be spent on Riccarton, instead they spent it on players bought by Jefferies. They welched on the deal with Heriot Watt once turf had been cut on building the centre. The press was full of Hawrts involvement at the start of that deal, they were going to "compete with the Old Firm" :rolleyes: and still report, as do Hawrts claim, "it's theirs". They seem to always forget the bit about welching on the deal at the last minute and putting zero cash towards the original build. SGM money was £6,000,000.

3-1 :flag:

[Billy Whizz]

Great move, and Shaw at back post to tap in

[Billy Whizz]

Excellent play by Hall and Shaw, and Gullan finished the move off
4- 1

[Jones28]

Oli Shaw has got to be in with a shout of making an appearance before the end of the season surely :confused:

I don't think he's been a regular for Stenhousemuir which would suggest probably not just yet.

[Bishop Hibee]

I assume their will be the usual cull of those hitting 20 to be replaced by youngsters coming through?

[bob12345]

Thought O'Connor slotted in seamlessly at centre half. Isn't he 16? Gallantes doesn't look like he's ready for this level, must be doing something right in training.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Entertaining match & some fine goals.

[DaveF]

Really enjoyed that game. Gullan and Shaw are a fairly lethal duo at this level, Innes Murray looks solid and Breen had a good 2nd half. Agree with poster above in that Gallantes looked a bit out of his depth, but that's mainly due to a lack of physical strength, though he looks very young so will have time to develop.

Need to get along to more of these, as it was good to watch.

Gallantes is only16 as well i think

[Baldy Foghorn]

Enjoyable game:aok:

[1875Sean]

Who scored all the goals?

[DaveF]

Shaw and Gullan got 2 each I think.

[Baldy Foghorn]

Yeah, some nice football and quality finishes

[Danderhall Hibs]

I don't think he's been a regular for Stenhousemuir which would suggest probably not just yet.

Based on that I'd agree. Obviously a stand out in his peer group but maybe struggling against men?

[Hibby Bairn]

15 I think.

[Billy Whizz]

Oli didn't play a lot for Stenhousemuir, oct//Nov due to being away with Scotland under 19 squad, and playing for our development team. Anyone who's been watching him, will see he's coming on leaps and bounds. Think he's started the last 3/4 games for Stenhousemuir, where available
Grant Holt is helping with the development squad, and I'm sure he's helped him in his Holt up play

[northstandhibby]

Shaw and Gullan got 2 each I think.

Great stuff!!!

Hope we can get the league more or less wrapped up soon enough and give these fantastic young prospects a run out in the first team.

glory glory

Not sure he is all that far from a place in the 1st team squad. His touch is good, he brings others into play with knock downs and he can clearly finish well.

Maybe he can fill out a bit more to cope with the physical hits he'll get when he steps up but in my opinion he looks a very good prospect who I hope is in or near the 1st team next season.

if he is he is only just 16... he's a cracking talent. We have a real chance of having top quality CHs for the next 10 years.
