Development game v Celtic

[Billy Whizz]

Hibs at home tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday), 2pm at Oriam. Maybe a chance for some of the school kids on holiday, to see some of our up and coming stars

I'll be there, also possibly a chance to see the delivery man in the wrong shirt I would have thought.

Indoor. Celtic haven't won the league, think Ross County are top

GOAL!! Shaw

[Onceinawhile]

First person to suggest putting Shaw into the team this weekend should be banned.

Why not? He's banging them in for the development side. If we never give him a chance we'll never know if he's good enough.

Because, for the umpteenth time he can't play because of the type of loan he's on, a development loan.

[CMurdoch]

He's not even been a starter for Stenhousemuir recently so not ready for us yet. Patience is required.

[Brightside]

HT 1-0 Hibs... chances for both. Porteus booked for Hibs after 35 mins.

Hibs lead by a goal to nil at the break, courtesy of a well taken strike from Oli Shaw. A fine showing from the youngsters in the opening 45

[Billy Whizz]

Good 1st half from Hibs, Celtic had plenty possession, but haven't created many chances

[Big_Franck]

:greengrin:greengrin:greengrin:greengrin:greengrin

I got a couple :greengrin

[Brightside]

Humphrey off..... perhaps with a view to the weekend.

[Big_Franck]

How has Dabrowski done?

[Marco G]

Humphrey off..... perhaps with a view to the weekend.
Lennie did say he might change the way we play, specially using the space at Hampden. Good to have more options.

Was Humphrey any good?

[Brightside]

Celtic score. 1-1. Im not at the game. Im sure Billy will give us an overview later.

[leither17]

Any first team players in the Celtic squad

[Brightside]

Nope. Liams brother is on the bench.

[oconnors_strip]

2-1 hibs Fraser Murray! Not long to go

[Brightside]

Fraser Murray makes it 2-1 for Hibs.

[oconnors_strip]

Full time 2-1 hibs.

4 points from the top and 6 ahead of Celtic

[oconnors_strip]

Brilliant performance from all the hibs players today, we controlled the game and never gave up.

The remaining games are going to be tight!

[Unseen work]

Fraser Murray seems to chip in with a decent amount of goals for a midfielder

[GreenCastle]

Hibs dominated 1st half and overall 2-1 probably a fair result.

2nd half Celtic came out more but Hibs still saw a lot of the ball.

Watched the Dev team several times this season and today I was really impressed once again with the players playing.

There are many talented players and I really hope some of them are given a chance of 1st team football.

Harris was excellent - centre backs strong as always - Martin very good - Shaw a threat - full backs worked socks off. Keeepr very talkative and commanded his area.

Very exciting for future of the club if these guys keep this up.

[houstonhibbee]

Great to hear Harris did well

[hfcok]

Thought the big keeper was excellent. Great diving header when he came out off his box as cellic player was running through.

[Tamhere1875]

Humphrey looks far from being match fit needs a few more games under his belt before even thinking of getting back in the first team squad

[Billy Whizz]

Boy, that was a great game. 2 good teams playing fast flowing passing football. Hibs throughly deserved this win, strong at the back, creative in midfielder and willing runners up front. Also really enjoyed watching Celtic no 7,Michael Johnson, cracking little player

Onto the game, Hibs lined up 352, with both our wing backs given the license to get forward. Celtic had a bit of possession in the 1st half, but Hibs created the better chances, and could have been more than 1-0 up.
2nd half probably mirrored the 1st, but Celtic got an equaliser probably against the run of play, and for 5/10 mins I thought they'd go on and win it! Hibs dug in and scored a great winner. Excellent play from Callum Donaldson and Shaw, and Donaldson cut the ball across for Fraser Murray to score with a left foot just inside the box. Oli should have added a 3rd, but keeper made a good save.
Pluses for Hibs 1st team was Humphrey getting 45 mins, played as a striker, and Harris getting 90 mins, again playing in a central role, old inside forward position, and breaking wide when his required, wish we would play him in that role in the 1st team

Some cracking talent in this development team, most of us know the ones who've been getting the praise this season, I don't generally like to single out performances at this level, but a player I really like and gets better every game, is the right back Callum Donaldson. Only 17, reminds me of Steven Whittaker, great engine and delivers a great ball in

Neil Lennon and Garry Parker were there as well, Lennon shouting encouragement to the young players throughout the match, and offering advise to them on position play, Isn't it great that we have a manager who goes to most our games at this level, and contributes as well. Really shows his commitment to the job

Good summary.

Agree about Harris - had a license to float about and looked very dangerous and linked up play. He looked like the old Harris - maybe a role for him going forward rather than stuck on the wing.

1st time I've seen this keeper - can someone tell me more about him ?

Ended 2-2

Highlights of the day was Baldy Foghorn and Tam1875, directing the traffic into the various car parks, at the Oriam pre match
Knew we'd end up having having a use for them at the games😄

👍 I git confused.

[frazeHFC]

So are we 4 points behind with 3 games to go, the next of which is away at the leaders Ross County?

This shouldn't matter really. It's all about getting players into the first team. League position might be an interesting marker as to what level of talent we have but quite often isn't. I think we've been too concerned in the past with results and positions at that level. It's not what is important.

I agree with that, the team that won the double a while back didn't exactly produce many good players for us, but would still be nice for the team to end the season as champions. A first team and development squad double.

[Mikey09]

Anyone tell me how Ben Stirling played?

[Baldy Foghorn]

Anyone tell me how Ben Stirling played?

Good game yesterday imo

[Billy Whizz]

Anyone tell me how Ben Stirling played?

Played centre of a 3 man central defence yesteday, thought he gave an excellent display. Ben's problem is his versatility. In the last 2/3 games he's played centre half, right back and midfield!


Next week's crucial game against Ross County has been confirmed as Tuesday 18th April, 6pm KO, at Global Energy Stadium Dingwall!

[Tamhere1875]

Looking forward to a wee trip up to Dingwall

[Cod Boy]

Currently losing 2.0 in Dingwall.

[Billy Whizz]

Defensive mistakes cost both goals

[Billy Whizz]

2-0 ft
We huffed and puffed 2nd half, had a few chances, but couldn't put them away

[frazeHFC]

They have the big crowd they were expecting?

I agree. I really rate Ben but he seems to be suffering from the "Ian Murray syndrome" where he can play many positions. If he gets near the 1st team that may be a huge asset but it's not doing his development any favours just now. He's a big, athletic lad who is really good on the ball. Loves a tackle as well! A nicer lad you wouldn't meet. Hope he makes it.

[Billy Whizz]

Decent crowd for this level, maybe 750 or so

Ben wasn't in the squad yesterday, presume he's injured
