Hibs v Rangers

[BILLYHIBS]

Rocky just boots the ball out the park

Quelle surprise

[Vault Boy]

At least Daz is fit again.

[Weegreenman]

What an absolute disaster of an evening from a Hibs prospective.

Yup! I don’t see this lot taking anything from Tynie next week either.

[Lago]

I'm probably being rude without intending to be but a tackle like that just hammers home that we have an older clientele on here.

3 or 4 comparitvely younger guys call it as a sending off, which it was, and everyone else piles in saying it was a 'strong challnege'.

It's not 1975, that's a red card.
Hey who you calling older, I liked my 1975 football 😊👌

[A Hi-Bee]

It's not a red card.

Hang the Hibs player out to dry though. Crack on.

The ref reacts to the hun players. He'd given a throw for **** sake.

Yip have to agree just another hun ref at Easter Road doing what they have done for years, if it was a real red the guy would not have got back up.

To be fair its the closest we've come to scoring all night.

Gallows humour its all we've got tonight.

[Sammy7nil]

Don’t need Specsavers,just don’t agree it deserved the punishment it got. He got the ball and nailed the player, let him know he was there.

I’m quite young :greengrin and I don’t think it was a red

Neither did my Grandad, who is pretty old :greengrin

I think Hibs should appeal that red.
So do I.

I’m an older guy and you are 100% right, red all day. He’s a young player who will come good.

[Ozyhibby]

I'm sorry, age does't come into. He plays the ball. His foot's not lifted at all. It's not even a foul.

He wins the ball but it’s dangerous play. It’s a red card. The club won’t even appeal because they know it. Porto just not learning.

[blackpoolhibs]

Even if we appeal, they will just say excessive force and throw it out.

[Northernhibee]

It’s a red. Reckless and dangerous.

[A Hi-Bee]

I watched it back about 10 times now...you’re right no contact at all. We must be able to appeal it. Many on here saying red but what makes it a red...he wins the ball and doesn’t connect with the man. I get that it was rash but if you get the ball and not the man, what is wrong with it (genuinely asking)?

Just a good auld fashioned hard tackle in a man's game, nothing wrong with the tackle or his commitment.

[Tomsk]

Question... if an opposition player tackled a Hibs player like that would you be happy???

Course not. That still doesn't make it a red.

Maxwell has been unfairly scapegoated on here recently, and Rocky's weaknesses are on show tonight. Bogdan or Maxwell would both be preferable replacements.

[gerry]

Keeper gave goal away ,rangers are a decent side ,wrong shape first half ,Porto got the ball naughty follow through yellow card at most we make it hard to win these games I’m sure the manager will sort things out by the summer and be a much better side next season hands are tied with the players we have

According to BBC stuff getting thrown from the home stands, abd Tom English having a field day.

Careful, I got shot down in flames for that!

[andyf5]

Absolutely, can only assume some have green tinted specs on. No where in Europe is that not a sending off. Happening too often with porteous.

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.

You are using my turn of phrase against me but it is quite natural and quite common to go hard into a tackle that you know you’ll win and let the opponent know you are there and tough in the tackle.

Just seen it. The hun boy got up so it was a poor tackle.

If you go through the ball and the man ends up in the stands then thats a very good fair tackle in my books, you would be way to young to have ever seen Big John MacNamee or Roy Barry or even John Madsen make a tacle not to mention Sloop, who also liked a hard but fair tackle.

I think Marciano had a major say how the game unfolded. That was a shocker.

[Rumble de Thump]

I know youth players at Hearts and Sevco. They are taught to try to win the ball but ensure they take out the player, as are the senior players. Some players just rake their studs down the back of people's legs and the refs are fine with it.

blow the whistle early ffs, it's a hunfest

[MikeyS]

I'm still on the fence as to red or yellow but I can understand why the ref gave it as Porto does this all too often. He purposely uses excess force in some tackles and until he cuts that out he's going nowhere (which I'm no that fussed about obviously, good player I'd like to see stay blong but needs to learn fast!

How can someone say he uses too much force when he tackles, how is he meant to tackle if he does, hard but fair it's a mans game and contact is part of that man's game.

[rcarter1]

I have lost count the number of times we have gone to Ibrox and won 3-0, so given the vast gulf in finances (and to be fair Gerrard seems to have them well fired up right now), the smelly poo Huns are due a win against us -- I suppose --. Buggers to it, we will get another chance one day, and in the meantime, they still haven't - ever - won a senior trophy!

Must sort our heeds out for the next few games....

Good, cool headed summary. Ross got set up all wrong from the off, you just cannot play 3 attacking mids and 2 up front against a flying Sevco - especially when you then gift them a goal of a start. I'm more annoyed at losing Porteous for the derby match than this hammering by the Huns. The Yam match is more important.

Hibs have lost the plot on the pitch, in the dugout and in the stands. Apart from that they’re having a great night. Only three down. So far

[J-C]

Left early as it wasn't good for my blood pressure.

Very disappointed with the over team performance, I'm not going to pick out any one player as I thought generally they were all poor. We seem to be a team scared to press, tackle and generally get stuck in and are without any leaders on the pitch.

We cannot now compete with the old firm as their financial clout is getting too big again, we can be the best of the rest but hald=f this team is just not good enough.

Referee was shocking and the Porteous sending off was a disgrace, it should be appealed asap.

Our first 4 yellows were for almost identical tackles to the one that Barisic did initially & he was only warned. In today's world Porteous tackle is probably a red but the hysteria from the Rangers' players & bench gave the ref the opportunity to give it.

[Forza Fred]

The difference in ability was as wide as Sydney Harbour, and plain to see.

While it pains me to say it, Rangers were quicker in both thought and action, and we were comprehensively out played.

Just the way it is, more money buys better players.

On that performance A reasonable person could claim that not one Hibs player, with the possible exception of Boyle, would get a start with either of the Old Firm, and many wouldn’t even make the bench of either of them.

Not a whinge, just a statement of belief.

I personally didnt think it was a red but plenty others will




just looked at the foul count


9 v 7 one yellow for a sevco player, they must have been harmless fouls

[one day maybe...]

The difference in ability was as wide as Sydney Harbour, and plain to see.

While it pains me to say it, Rangers were quicker in both thought and action, and we were comprehensively out played.

Just the way it is, more money buys better players.

On that performance A reasonable person could claim that not one Hibs player, with the possible exception of Boyle, would get a start with either of the Old Firm, and many wouldn’t even make the bench of either of them.

Not a whinge, just a statement of belief.

Correct...

Just a gulf in class at the moment between the Old Firm and everyone else. What is Defoe on wages wise a week (£30k or more) and he barely plays.

You can’t set up like that v Them. And you can’t give them a goal start. Basics. They also work much harder than us.

:agree: must have been. That's the only way to explain 5 yellows and a red for Hibs players.

My God it gets worse it was clearly thrown by Boyler

Agree, it’s the biggest skelping for as long I can remember from another Scottish team (we got away with 0-3). Shot ourselves in the foot with the first goal but we weren’t even 2nd best in the whole game. Rangers looked very good, it pains me to say it but they really could win the title this year. However, the cheating *******s are again paying and playing players they can’t afford and are way out of context of our league. Unfortunately our only hope is they go bust again or we start doing the same. 😡

An improvement on buckfast, but still shouldn’t have thrown it

Swansea fan view of the second half.

Why are you scared of Rangers?

Red was beyond harsh. That’s a quiet word with the player in the championship. Is the ref on commission?

Where are your fans?

You dont need to be a Swansea fan to come to the same conclusion.

If they are at it again, then this would be brilliant!!

It's a toxic club from top to bottom. Sevco won and I'm delighted to be a Hibs supporter. And Tom English is a pretendy intellectual bawbag.



Agree on all counts.

Tom English is a total tosser.

Ah, well, at least the myth that 2 up front was the panacea for all our ills, has been well & truly debunked!

I generally find that referee's are more inclined to book players for a foul when that team is playing badly. Dont know exactly why, but when we are playing well, refs seem less inclined to book our fouls.

frustration maybe ?

[Speedway]

It should be obvious now that the spine is the rebuilding required.

Until that’s done, there’s certain rules to follow.

Hallberg and Slivka got split up after building an understanding together, to accommodate Mallan. That needs correcting.

Mallan is the deputy of Allan

Bogdan is the keeper.

In Scotland, you don’t get away with having no steel in your side.

[B.H.F.C]

Forget the referee, the red card etc. That was as bad as I’ve seen all season. Really bad.

[Steve88]

That was worse than being 2-0 down against livi earlier in the season

[pacoluna]

Probably the most boring game I've been to in years at Er camped in our half for 90 mins, brutal.

Mallan is unfortunately a luxury we cannot afford in a footballing sense (in this side as it is).

Midfield lacks balance and more importantly industry. This team needs two 'holders' to allow Allan, Boyle and the attack-minded players freedom to play. To ask the likes of Mallan (or) Allan to defend is like asking Billy Bunter to avoid the pic n mix aisle.

It's the old story. The Old Firm and the rest of us.

That was the grand plan PH cooked up though. All of his midfielders would be able to defend and attack, even if it’s not their game. No need for players in specialised positions, we’ll just fit square pegs in round holes and hope for the best.

Minimum two defensive midfielders, a left back and a left winger in January please. Vela, James and Middleton first out the door.

This...

Though I actually think Allan has been playing really poor for a while - he has chipped in with a few assists. But not even sure I would start him in Derby..Mallan has been chucked onto the left of midfield and can’t play there. But he has looked good coming on as a sub.

Have I missed something but where is Joe Newell disappeared to ?

Boyle Vela Hallberg Slivka ??? Could have been a more stable midfield tonight.

??? Being we don’t have another left sided player as Middleton has been a poor signing / or someone we haven’t got best from / couldn’t play against parent team.

[RossScott1991]

Tonight is the perfect example why 4.4.2 is not always the answer. As much as I love seeing a strike partnership, it will beat most teams at ER. However the old firm will always murder us playing that way. Was predictable they were going to murder us down the sides, we don’t have the athleticism either to get across and shift in the diamond.

Tonight due to the midfield being dragged about the shop we had no base or platform to build attacks. 4.2.3.1 against the better sides should be the way. With option of 2nd striker to go on if needed. But against superior sides we need to set up in a way we can remain in the match

[Dolce7]

It's the old story. The Old Firm and the rest of us.


this is the reality and sadly don’t think it’s ever going to change

[GreenCastle]

A simple question for press conference to Ross..

Did you watch the 6-1 game at Ibrox ?

We basically had a similar awful set up that day.

[truehibernian]

Not sure we need another winger, but agree we need the other positions filled - I think we need another striker too personally.

[Speedway]

For those who are asking, Newell returns to training next week.

[Lancs Harp]

We need to put this behind us and get back on track. We could do with playing a right tinpot outfit from near the bottom of the league next.

[Smartie]

That Rangers side is our kryptonite.

They are extremely fit, quick and work very hard. They can dominate in the final third and ruthlessly exploit that gap between our defence and midfield.

We have no midfielders with any defensive qualities, chose to play 2 with the worst defensive attributes as part of a 4 and were unsurprisingly mauled.

There was a limit to what Ross could have done much differently there. I just hope he was watching closely, getting an idea of what we need to do to sort that midfield. We’ve got enough about us to beat the worst teams in the league but we’re a million miles off giving Rangers and Celtic a game.

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

That was very poor from Hibs. Only consolation was I'd been out from 12.30 and was slightly pished by kick off time which made the next 90 minutes a bit more bearable.

[Speedway]

Short and sweet from the gaffer:

Hibernian head coach Jack Ross: "We were a long way short of where we needed to be. The start of the game makes it very difficult for us, particularly against one of the top two sides in the league.
"It made it a long and difficult evening, but we need to be better in the basic part of the game to produce a better result."

[CloudSquall]

How much funds do we have available for Ross? Should be open checkbook season..

[tonyrougier123]

Rangers are a very decent side,painful but true.

I took one look at the lineups and knew what kind of game we were going to have.

Rangers have a good balanced squad pool,pace strength,overlapping full backs hard working strikers.defoe getting on abit but dangerous in the box.
We need to use that formula to build this squad up to that potential again.
Giving us a fighting chance to be competitive in these games again.
If we dont recruit smarter not better even,just a wee bit smarter we will be miles of it with the rangers and celtic.
Tavernier who is garbage at defending played without danger,and in past games he has been a target to bring us some joy but recently the guy has been playing with a cigar and slippers against us.

First time that I can remember leaving a game early,left with 15 minutes to go. Couldn't bear to listen to their end having a party. We were never at the races tonight and I was bored rigid. Pains me to to say I Lost interest after 20 minutes. Men against boys tonight.

You lasted longer than me. The game was over after 8 minutes.

[mcfly]

Last night proved the club/owner/manager have to be brave and get rid of the players that offer nothing.

Our defence is constantly under pressure due to a powderpuff midfield,

Mallan, Hallberg are just not good enough.

Whether it’s loan players in jan I don’t know. But we desperately need 2 new strong midfielders.

[B.H.F.C]

So noticeable. They were so much more powerful than us and completely bullied us, all over the park. It’s a mental thing as well, we were intimidated by them. It’s been said many times but there is a complete lack of leadership on the park, with senior players letting us down badly. There is no arrogance or belief in us any more and nobody setting any standards.
