Hibs v Rangers

[CMac1988]

****ing *****. Worst half of football I've witnessed at Easter Road all season.

[heretoday]

Hibs need to replace half the team.

[jellybean]

Bring on McGregor and Horgan and go three at the back. Take off Stevenson and Mallan.

Barasic no yellow card.

Stevenson and Naismith both shown yellow cards immediately.

They don't even try to disguise their bias now.

Thank f we got to half time at 2

[MikeyS]

Both full backs now booked due to fouls made in areas you wouldn't normally need your full backs to make tackles. That's down to the terrible formation!

****ing *****. Worst half of football I've witnessed at Easter Road all season.

Must’ve missed a lot of football at ER then 😂 We’ve made mistakes and been punished by a good side. The squad we’ve got is severely lacking in key positions. Recruitment team and PH badly ****ed up in the summer.

[heretoday]

What a bunch of stiffs!

[Lancs Harp]

Same rubbish trotted out every time there’s a downturn in form, must be on about his 12th manager not one of them has managed to get a guy in good enough to replace him

Because of how we are set up in front of him Paulo Maldini would have struggled tonight, not that Im saying Lewis is the best fullback in the world but the team simply isnt set up right for what Rangers are presenting us with.

Jack 0 Gerrard 2

[Brightside]

Setup is terrible. A midfield of show ponies and not one person pressing the ball. Very poor.

[Liam6270]

Right Stevenson you’re a legend and always will be but you’re way past your best now and Mallan is like playing with a man down!

Rangers look like scoring with every attack, we’re so far off the pace here but somehow we’re still in this, just

[Vault Boy]

Desperately need the midfielders to be a hell of a lot braver on the ball second half. This has been brutal.

My thoughts exactly!

Poor recruitment caused this to happen.

Some this may well be true but he’s now become our weakest link along with Hanlon.

Anyway only 2-0 and its half time.

Mince pie anyone?

The formation was a gamble. Jack admitted that before the game.

He didn’t expect Marciano to gift them a goal after 3 mins. That completely changes the game.

The shape will change at half time I’m sure.

[Hibby soldier]

Mallan needs hooked here. Constantly giving it away and offering **** all going back the way. Shame we’ve not got much else to replace him with.
mallan mah arse
theres 11 out there playing shegite..

[penihibs]

Get Mallan off the pitch.

Oh and that goalie should be oota here.

Stevenson is a waste of a jersey

Apart fae that, we're doin OK

Stevenson's not having good game but what about this joker Hallberg ?

[James70]

Let's just face it, Rangers are an excellent team whereas Hibs are a long way behind them. Just wish they didn't save their best performances when playing us though saying that they should have easily beaten Celtic in the LCF.

[BarneyHibby]

Stevie Mallan is a complete waste of jersey. Get him off at halftime.

[Chorley Hibee]

Same rubbish trotted out every time there’s a downturn in form, must be on about his 12th manager not one of them has managed to get a guy in good enough to replace him

Sorry, but it's time to move on. Stevenson, Hanlon and others are not good enough to take this club to where we would all like it to be.

We're miles off being a club with ideas of 3rd place/Europe etc, and the time for dumping this sentimental attachment to players who aren't good enough has to come soon.

[Hibs90]

Said it before and I'll say it again. Mallan is never a football player. One trick pony. Get him off.

[Heisenberg]

Poor recruitment caused this to happen.

Poor recruitment has been a consistent issue every summer since promotion. Buzzing for our January rebuild to sort it all out again tbh.

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

One of the worst 45 minutes I've had to sit through in a long time, utterly abysmal all over the park and not one player has done anything of note, a clear out next year starting with the defence. Dreadful.

[hibee_girl]

Right, let’s be positive.

Weren’t Aberdeen 2-0 a few weeks ago and got it back to a 2-2 draw? 🤞🏻

[northern-hibee]

Time for Hanlon and Stevenson to go, they are finished at this level and it is cruel to keep persevering with them now

[hfc rd]

Scoreline flatters us. We look far too scared to put in a challenge and show some fight. They are cutting through us like a knife through butter. Giving them way too much respect.

[Ozyhibby]

We could gamble and go for all three subs at half time?
McGregor porteous Hanlon
Slivka Halberg Allan
Boyle Horgan
Doidge Kamberri

Not a lot to lose at this point. Lot of work for Boyle and Horgan but it will give them something to think about as well.

Allan and Kamberi really need to learn how to keep and hold onto the ball.

Not seen any of Doidge.

Porto needs to realise what he’s good at and it’s not being Ambrose mk 2.

Marciano? How can your kicking be so bad.

A narrow midfield against a rangers team whose strengths are out wide with their full backs and wingers was never going to work.

Need a massive second half to get close to them.

We are also miles off them all over the pitch, Iv noticed that it’s mallan and Boyle closing the winger in possession with Naismith and Stevenson sitting 10 yards behind in no mans land. Push the team on and get us up the pitch!!!

[Mr Grieves]

Pathetic, bullied all over the park.

Not even a shot on target in the first half...their defense is pretty solid - Goldson, Katic and Barisic haven't been troubled at all.

[MikeyS]

Aye we get 2 bookings but barasic gets **** all for his foul on Boyle sums up our officials

Totally agree mate, cant believe he wasnt booked for that!

[Biggie]

Jumping out of a tackle is unforgivable imo.

Lewy jumping out a tackle ?.....the guys got a heart of a lion.....I must have missed that one.
Having said that, hes no longer good enough if we want to improve...neither is Hanlon, or mallon.

[Paloschi]

Rangers are a really good team with really good players and have turned up. Apart from individual mistakes on our part we have still looked OK and are still in the game. Perspective needed.

[berwickhibee]

Making Ryan Jack look class. Haven't laid a glove on him.
Scott Allan very poor. Not interested.

I'd have slivka for mallan
Horgan for allan

[supermcginn]

Time for Hanlon and Stevenson to go, they are finished at this level and it is cruel to keep persevering with them now

They are dreadful. Worst thing is they are so soft. Get stuck in ffs

[we are hibs]

Absolutely pathetic. Cowards all over the park.

[PH91]

Kamberi left and mallan off now. Try and get a hold of the midfield.

[SideBurns]

Aye Mallan is brutal - but what about Allan? Even worse. Spineless, *****bag Hibs performance.

Aberdeen made the same mistake a couple of weeks ago with a narrow midfield and got slaughtered until they changed it.

I had assumed Ross would have seen that and acted accordingly.

Obviously not. Total joke of a set up and not helped of course by Rocky being a total clown.

We better change shape and attitude for the second half or it will be more of the same...

[CMac1988]

Must’ve missed a lot of football at ER then 😂 We’ve made mistakes and been punished by a good side. The squad we’ve got is severely lacking in key positions. Recruitment team and PH badly ****ed up in the summer.

Been here all season. Can't deny they're a good side but we haven't half made it easy for them. Out of possession we're so far off the pace it's unreal. Not enough desire from players coupled with a formation that's asking to be exploited down the wings. In possession we try to play neat tidy passes but it falls flat because they pressure us and force mistakes. No one is able to take the ball and buy us a bit of time. Punted at the first opportunity. L

Only players getting pass marks of some kind are Doidge and Porteous.

[Dmas]

Jack 0 Gerrard 2

Totally agree, however there’s not much that jack can do from game to game with the squad that was assembled under heckys watch, this system has served him well so far you can see why he’s went with it again, my only gripe as I’ve said before is what I’d call the old pals act which has seen Mallan start ahead of slivka.

Don’t know how to fix the cover issues wide I don’t think Horgan would offer much cover either

[SChibs]

Stevenson's not having good game but what about this joker Hallberg ?

Hallberg has been the least of our problems tonight

[thegaffer12]

I just don't understand how we're outnumbered when defending yet outnumbered when attacking too. How are rangers so much fitter than us?

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Need to change it, I’d try:

..........................Rocky................... ......

......McGregor...Porteous.....Hanlon.......

..................Hallberg...Slivka............... ...
Boyle..........................................Hor gan
..........................Allan................... ..........

...............Doidge......Kamberi................ .

[Hibs90]

Aye Mallan is brutal - but what about Allan? Even worse. Spineless, *****bag Hibs performance.

Piss poor from Allan tonight but Mallan belongs in a boyband not a football pitch

[Manxhibs]

Mallan definitely needs to come off. Rangers are bossing the midfield and we need somehow wrestle possession back. I’d bring on Slivka, maybe play 5 in midfield with Kamberi coming out wide

[we are hibs]

Mallan needs hooked here. Constantly giving it away and offering **** all going back the way. Shame we’ve not got much else to replace him with.

He needs emptied in january. Absolute joke of a "footballer"

[Billy Whizz]

Slivka and Horgan look like they are coming on

[hibee62]

Slivka and Horgan doing a separate warm up.

[King conrad]

Please take Mallan off, Scott Allen not doing much better we need a three in the centre of the park. Surely we are looking for a new centre half as for me Paul Hanlon looks slow and vulnerable and one of our week links

[Keith_M]

Said it before and I'll say it again. Mallan is never a football player. One trick pony. Get him off.


I wouldn't go that far... but he shouldn't be playing tonight.

[PeeJay]

It's clear to see what Rangers do on the training ground through the week, I'm not sure what our guys are doing ... poor from everyone, ball possession non existent, passing shocking, no creativity, no drive, no aggression, no dynamism, no motivation, difficult to see any way back from this atm - Rangers pissing all over us. While I don't really think they are a very good team, they are light years ahead of us ... quite embarrassing first half

[hfc rd]

Mallan has been atrocious but Scott Allan has been just as s****. It’s as if he is s*** scared of Ryan Jack.

[CyberSauzee]

Get Mallan off the pitch.

Oh and that goalie should be oota here.

Agree re Stevenson. Ball watching for 2nd.

[bringbackbenny]

I just don't understand how we're outnumbered when defending yet outnumbered when attacking too. How are rangers so much fitter than us?

It's because they're a multi million pound side. And we're no...

However still need to compete far better and stop gifting goals.

[Scottie]

Mallan definitely needs to come off.
Heart of a fly, needs emptied I'm afraid.

[Shrekko]

Please take Mallan off, Scott Allen not doing much better we need a three in the centre of the park. Surely we are looking for a new centre half as for me Paul Hanlon looks slow and vulnerable and one of our week links

Scott Allan actually doing considerably worse at the moment but let’s kid on that’s not the case. The blaming Mallan for everything thing is so predictable it’s laughable.

[norhfc]

Impressed with their work rate, giving us no time on the ball and we are standing off them.
Saying that, we are still in the game.

[King conrad]

It was Hallberg who let his man run off him not Stevenson

[Steve88]

I’d like to see a pass forward for a change - that excludes hoof balls up the park!

[AT8]

Allan OR Mallan. How many times are we going to persist with this combo. Neither are any good in a fight, to have both on the pitch at the same time is paramount to playing with a man down.

[penihibs]

Hallberg has been the least of our problems tonight

What's he done that's better than any other joker in midfield?

[we are hibs]

Scott Allan actually doing considerably worse at the moment but let’s kid on that’s not the case. The blaming Mallan for everything thing is so predictable it’s laughable.

As is your continual defense of the indefensible.

We need to change something but personally I'd go with 4-4-2 with a flatter midfield across the park. Ive still got defensive nightmares against Rangers with a three across the back in the 5-5 draw, mind you i'd settle for 5-5 right now. What a game thats was.

To be fair near enough 9 players could get subbed off at half time and have little to complain about. A dreadful performance lacking in any courage or responsibility. Hindsight is a great thing but I cant see why Jack decided to go with a formation that struggled to get the ball back v Celtic and struggles in wide areas.

Sevco have overspent by tens of millions of pounds. It's hardly surprising they can beat other teams in our league. What i find weird is the people who attatch themselves to this club. A club renowned for cheating, corruption, criminal activity, bigotry, sectarianism and hatred, and people cheer when they score. They gloat when they when. It's a club that normalises the worst things about Scottish society. People who take a wage from that club are the most disgraceful.

Might well have been. Doesn’t change the fact the ref has sent him off bass on the Rangers players telling him to. He’d given a throw.

[hibIBZ]

Never a red in a million years. Shocking from the ref. Typical ref to get the job done for th peepul.

[Sylar]

Can't believe people are defending that "tackle". Was an absolute shocker. Straight leg, out of control, high and studs showing.

Easiest red Nick Walsh will show. Porto a complete idiot.

Great tackle, **** all wrong with it

Correct. Kept his studs down too. Joke of a decision.

Ryan is off for a shocking no need challenge imho.

Poor touch and a reckless one for me.

Its a true fact that when teams put pressure on us, we are dirt garbage. If we can keep a high tempo and focus on attack at Tynecastle we have a good chance.

[we are hibs]

Seriously, folk clapping him off :faf:

Out for next week, gonna lose 5/6 here now. Boy is a tool.

Youre an absolute tool. Attention seeking as usual. Bore off

[Pretty Boy]

No surprise that from Porteous. When he gets away with it it's cause for celebration amongst our fanbase but it:s absolute idiocy and when he gets punished for it that is hammered home. A few weeks back with the reserves is all he deserves.

Hopefully Ross just shuts up shop here and avoids an Ibrox style humiliation.

Porteous needs to get a grip. Ridiculous tackle put him out of a semi final and now a derby. I know a scout for a big team down south and they notice these things. You can’t be a good player if your not playing

That's never a red. Cut the bull**** Sutton.

He wins the ball and hes not even high. It's a nonsense decision.

We simply can’t compete with the huns, they just have better players. Sad but true 😭

[Sammy7nil]

Utter embarrassment.

Mallan and Allan can't play in the same team especially a team with Boyle. Yes we got away with it a few times but it does not work.

Neither full back is good enough

Porteous just a total Dick thinking only of himself.

Unless we have the ball Allan is a man short.

[Weegreenman]

I thought Ryan got the ball but the follow threw wasn’t called for. I’ve seen Ryan doing this several times now.

[MWHIBBIES]

Seriously, folk calling a Hibs youngster a tool?

He is a senior player. And he's let us down massively. Missing another huge game because of a ridiculous red.

Weir I think

[GreenCastle]

Left at half time - never do that or even leave early but like the 6-0 game at Ibrox the signs were there early. Wrong starting line up.

Hecky lack of midfield recruitment means we have no balance to midfield.

We got lucky with Mallan and Allan against Aberdeen - I never want to see them together again.

Tonight once again has shown we aren’t fit enough and miles away from the Old Firm. 7 million on a player against what we spend - they should be more than 3-0 up.

What is the club doing allow the huns putting flags all over place and it’s obvious over crowding in the away end and especially lower tier. A Huns fan was telling me like Celtic they try beat the barcode scanners and often use stairs to go to lower tier = over crowding. Hibs need to get their act together on and off the pitch.

A few weeks ago we were world beaters after scudding the Sheep, and we've now lost 2 games in a row Vs the two best teams in the league who have players we could only dream of.

Hearts are lost and second bottom by virtue of Goal difference, they're awful, and I think we will beat them at Tynie

[SChibs]

Completely embarrassed at myself for leaving early but I watching this at ibrox earlier in the season and I cant watch it again. First time I've ever left early and hopefully the last

[A Hi-Bee]

Superb from Porto. Empties a hun and the dugout wins the scrap against perennial bottler Gerrard. Great to see

never a red and that ref was just itching to get a Hibs player off, although we have played very poor with a defence that is dug***** the now, we need some serious investment in Jan with a new defense along wi some real dig in the middle of the park.

Stop it. It wasn’t even a free kick, he wins the ball cleanly and his follow through caught the hun slightly. I’m not surprised to see you defending the referee, you’re not really a hibs fan are you.

[Lancs Harp]

Red all day long for me Its 2019 not 1972 you simply cant dive in like that. Games gone and now he's got himself suspended. We all know hes prone to be a bit rash, that was a prime example, what was he thinking trying to clear him out 3-0 and in that position on the pitch. Sorry fellas bit midless for me and he needs to learn.

[Del Boy]

20 years ago it’s fine, today it’s a red.

[A Hi-Bee]

Fair hard tackle never a red

Thats not allowed when you have a hun ref.

No point even arguing about it. If we appeal it 1000000% gets turned down.

Eh? Doidge is not the problem here. Up against a top defender and supplied with woeful service. What is he supposed to do.

He offers nothing other than the occasional hold up of the ball but is so slow the defenbse get back into position. Running channels non existent. You are right, he will never, ever cause a top defender any problems.

no action will be taken against visiting sevco fans, we did cut their allocation once but due to poor appointments and some dreadful player acquisitions we could probably offer them part of the west stand as well


home fans get told to take banners/flags off of advertising, maybe advertisers need to complain to the club with sevco fans covering adverts that they pay our club for

This isn't junior football, and it's not the 1970s. You can't tackle like that, and if your logic in bold is to be extended, impartiality trumps a blinkered viewpoint...

Besides, I'm hardly the only one suggesting it was reckless and deserving of a red.

I get that it was rash but if you get the ball and not the man, what is wrong with it (genuinely asking)?
