New manager expected to be announced soon.

As green castle said a week or so ago it’s Grant Scott unless there has been a last minute change.

They have a good squad but they also keep them in their age group rather than pushing the talented ones up.

Finally confirmed by the club 👍👍

Sarah Gibb released from Glasgow City. Very good young midfielder who hasn’t quite broken into the first team. Would be a good one for Hibs to develop. Think she’d be an excellent CDM in time.

We do need more youth back in the team, and we need a bigger squad full stop, plus now with the changes continuing in the game we need to start thinking about the bringing in and selling on model.

Now Scott's back I imagine one of the first orders of business will be sitting down with McDermott amd identifying targets. He'll obvs know the players at Glasgow City well, so Gibb might well be a shout. Could make up for letting Lauren Davidson leave!

Pleased to see Grant back in charge

LD would never have left if she’d got game time. One that got away.

Yep, and if memory serves Scott was at City when she was signed so probs had a hand in it

FT

[hibby rae]

Rangers have lost two of their best players. Sam Kerr is away to Bayern. Emma Watson going down to Man U. Hibs have signed Mya Christie from Aberdeen - she's a decent young player who can play wingback or winger (18yo)

Brilliant thread, very respectful compared to the sleazy Yams going daft about there manageress

Joelle signs on again, going to be really getting preped for the main job by the sounds of it.

Although that's been a given for a while she'd one day get a crack at it.

Disappointing to see some of them leave.

I thiught we had two year deals for some there.

Would have liked to see Lockwood, Hinds, and, Thomas next season.

The well known overseas players just seem to float seamlessly between leagues.
It helps them that the leagues are all played at different times.
Almost appears they are playing 12 months a year to make a living.
Lockwood, Hinds and Parry will be big misses.

[hibby rae]

Absolutely.

We needed a new keeper anyway, I wondered if we might tempt Fife back tbh, could be wrong but she didn't play in the Scottish cup final? Wondered if she'd lost her place.

Really hoped Lockwood was here for next season. Maybe need to try and be more Scottish based in our signings. Can't build a team on one year deals.

[Stokesy's on fire]

Lockwood leaving makes no sense she was good dont understand why shes being let go

[hibby rae]

I'm guessing we only had her till the end of the season, thiugh I thought we'd signed her on a longer deal 🤷

A pity Thomas isn’t going to be here next season. She had a really promising start before her season was ended by an injury sustained in the Derby.

Fife signed a new deal with Rangers. and we can't match their money - tbh I wouldn't want to match it. She's ok but not great. The Lockwood one is odd as I was sure like you that she'd signed for longer. She was the shining star of last season. I'm wondering if they are releasing a lot of the foreign players in order to save a bit of cash? I'm assuming Hibs cover accommodation etc for them so that will all add up.

Oh yea no danger do we want to spend what they do. Wasn't aware she signed a new deal, she would have been an improvement on Haaland so I'm not gutted to see her go.

I had a look but couldn't see anything concrete from when Lockwood signed other than Gibson saying she was here for the 'foreseeable'. Given her quality I wouldn't be surprised if she has another club lined up. With a fit Boyle behind her she would have been banging them in if she'd stayed.

Bojang's flat is free right now though :greengrin

Lockwood was too good for Hibs. She made a real difference especially with so many of our best players injured. She will get something better. It must be said continuing to play in front of 200 folk at a soul-less rented Sports Centre won't help us to financially retain such players.
Hines and Parry will also be losses but it's not all bad news a lot of the other hired guns weren't up to scratch so we now have a chance to sign better.
Fingers crossed Boyle makes a successful comeback.
Top priority should be the biggest and best quality goalkeeper we can afford. Would be worth a load of goals.

The SWPL is already locked in a financial natural order with the top 3 teams full time, Hibs and Hearts 4th and 5th operating a hybrid of full and part time players and the rest of the clubs training a couple of evenings a week.

That's my thoughts too. Unless people start heading to the games we won't keep good players. The venue def doesnt help in any way, but I am going to start going more.

Should make entry a fiver with a mens season ticket for one season IMO. Would make it a cheap day when at a loose end and get more engaged and into the habit of supporting the women's team which would benefit in the long term.

Problem is if you want a better venue then you're going to make it harder to get to.

Before Meadowbank there was Ainslie (where we were punted from), Livi, and Penicuik. None of them ideal really location-wise.

I don't think she was too good, she's wxactly the quality we should aim for. We've had them before and some of our players are off that quality stil.

New keeper in

Katie Fraine has a lot of game experience so hopefully she can be a marked improvement on the goalkeeper front.
She is taller than Gabby English and our other American goalkeeper Ailey Tebbett but is smaller than her predecessor Benni Haaland

See I always thought Gabby was taller than Haaland. Gabby was a bettef keeper though

[PHeffernan]

See I always thought Gabby was taller than Haaland. Gabby was a bettef keeper though

According to an online search Gabby is 5'10" and Haaland 5'11'
However, anytime I saw Haaland play she seemed to struggle to get off the ground so English was probably far more effective.
Obviously my online checks could easily be wrong :rolleyes:.

Abbie is a great signing. Exactly what I was hoping they’d go for. Young, hungry, talented. Impressed with that move.

Seems like we defo have a new model in place (which seems similar to the one we had under Scott etc before).

I mind being very impressed with a couple Partick players at the last Meadowbank game. I'm going to assume she was onw of them!

[Brightside]

Tegan Bowie back now also. Another decent signing for Hibs.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Scotland will host Northern Ireland in a friendly at Dens park on 14th July

[Brightside]

Alessia Russo is apparently going to get 400k sign on fee from Arsenal - if it goes through. Big change in money available at top end now and lots of players running down contracts and then going for this option. Man U have also lost their right back to Barca in the same circumstances.

They can always go back to teaching once their football careers are over, with the kudos of being an ex-professional footballer.

Yeah I think the pull of getting to continue your dream might mean career is put on hold for a while. I'm sure Hibs would accommodate a player of her quality however we could! Cause let's be honest, no disrespect to Spartans etc but she's far too good for them. She'd also played under Grant before and posted a much nicer message about Hibs on IG when she left 😂

Plus she already went to the Huns FT, if they were happy bencher her she probs wasn't a high earner

Essentially it seems all we achieved in the long term was scout a top player for them. Wait for Crystal Thomas to sign for them now to complete it!

Was it announced she was leaving before or after Scott took over? I think it was before but can't confirm

[Brightside]

Girasoli signs for Hearts. She’s a top CB. And they are also going to sign a young midfielder from Aberdeen. Brodie greenwood.

I wonder if Hearts womens team have access to additional funds if they need it.
The signing of Lockwood gives them a very good signing and a classic one finger signal to Hibs.
Looks like Hibs have 5th sown up again.

P.S. Re Crystal Thomas, on wiki she is shown to have played only 82 senior games at the age of 29.
Is that right? Is she perma injured? If so they are welcome to her.

[Brightside]

City sign Kenzie Weir. She is one of the Scotland u19 CBs. Daughter of Davie. A good player at the younger levels but I think she may struggle with senior players with pace.

The impression I'm getting is we simply dropped the ball and let her go when we shouldn't have, no one else has came for her so Hearts have seen an opportunity.

For Thomas, it's hard to say, you'll know yourself the record keeping for women's appearances online doesn't seem to be great. *Note she hasn't actually went there. Although I'm happy for them to sign Haaland 😂

Kathleen McGovern signs for Hearts now. She will score plenty. Thats a decent strike force they have. Rangers need to start making some signings.

[hibby rae]

Hopefully we've targeted getting a couple more forwards in the door.

Only really got Eilidh Adams as a starter. Tweedie's a squad player.

i was watching rugby league in the 2nd half with the football on the PC so missed a lot of it, i don't think that was one of Docherty's better games from what i did see she seemed to put herself in trouble a few times, anyways i'll probably watch more of the game in Finland next Tuesday

I think if we play 2 decent CBs it will be much better. Rogers that came on is a CM. Odd move to put her there. Nothing on the bench is great in that area. Waiting game for younger players.

Loved the story about when (the Scottish ) Sam Kerr got the phone call from Bayern about joining and she asked’
‘You sure you have the right Sam Kerr’?

Was hoping the Scotland women would beat Ireland….which would have seen them play in the opening round of the World Cup against the Matildas in Sydney in front of 80,000 people but sadly Ireland beat them.

Only consolation for me is that there are no concerns about ‘divided loyalties ‘ now.

The Matildas beat France 1-0 in a friendly in Melbourne yesterday in front of a crowd of over 50,000 …..if you had said only a few years ago that there would be 50,000 at a women’s football game in Oz you would have been laughed at.

Saw it on Disney down here.

They kept a clean sheet against France and a fit again Alannah Kennedy at centre half rebuffed all comers.

Whether they can do it consistently though is the burning question.

There are few sides who I fancy…the USA, Canada Sweden could be there or thereabouts.

And I hope that Ireland’s fighting qualities don’t spring a surprise on Thursday…..they had a bounce game against Colombia yesterday abandoned by the ref at their request after hostilities broke out after 30 minutes!

Esther Morgan.
They have also signed Lizzie Waldie who was at Crystal Palace.
They are naturally looking to get closer to the top 3 this season.

Last season they drew 2 games with Rangers and failed to take any point from Celtic and Glasgow City.
More interestingly they lost a game to Spartans, drew games with Motherwell, Partick Thistle and 3 with Hibs.
Win those 6 games this season and they close the gap by 13 points without having to take more points from the top 3.

[The Hibee Harp]

After a 0-0 draw with Dundee United tonight it looks to be shaping up as more of the same for Hibs and a continuation from last season. I expected more from the girls this season but Sunday was hardly convincing against Montrose (we may have won 4-1 but we scored with all our shots on target and had no shots on target in last hour of game). Beating teams like Utd is the minimum we should expect. This is a big season for the girls and we must get back at the top end challenging. Standards need to improve.

Hybrid Hibs drew 0-0 with part time and badly resourced Dundee Utd tonight.
They now sit in 7th place after 3 games behind the big 3 as well as Hearts, Aberdeen and Partick Thistle.
I think the 5th best resourced club can hold onto 5th again this season but that will be the extent of it.

Might be a small thing to some but it’s really irked me that our club captain wasn’t with the team last night and was instead showing mascots around Easter Road. Likewise, I’ve seen Rachael Boyle at ER watching Martin when the girls are playing a couple of times already this season. We have a really young squad and we should have the older, more experienced players at our games - even if they are not playing - to help the youngster out and talk/coach them through games. Like I said, some might not think much of it but what would the reaction be if Paul Hanlon chose to do the same.

The derby was a big win and the Aberdeen player being sent off made for an easy win in midweek and makes for a much better looking league table.
Win at the weekend against Motherwell whilst Celtic beat Aberdeen and Hearts win or draw against Partick would take us up to 4th and best of the rest with 3 games left of the first round of matches. Think Partick and Hamilton at home and Rangers away, all in October, are those 3 fixtures. Hopefully 2 wins would keep us in 4th given Hearts also have Rangers to play.

P.S. Hearts have signed South Korean player Yeunn Park until the end of the season and have 5 players, who join 4 Hibs players, in the latest Scotland U23 squad. There are also 4 Glasgow City and interestingly only 2 Celtic and Zero Rangers players in the squad.

6 Rangers players and 3 from Glasgow City in the full Scotland squad but zero from Celtic, Hibs or Hearts.

Between the 2 squads it tells a story of players coming through at all teams in Scotland but once established they go to the big 3 in Scotland or down south and then the very best move to the big European teams.

Like the mens team Hibs women need to find a way of making money from the best young talent when they move away with sell on clauses etc included in the contract. At the moment we are just filling the talented player conveyer belt but not benefitting significantly financially.

[hibby rae]

8 teams would be more a group than a league.

Can't be having teams regularly getting buried by more than 6 goals.
Games like today's 12-0 will be a credibity killer for the league to anyone on the outside looking in.

True, but I was more than happy when it was Hibs dishing it out. What's not to enjoy about sticking 9 past Celtic with no reply in a cup final?

Back then we expected to beat Celtic so I found the game somewhat dull after we went 3 up. Similar situation to the Motherwell final.

Not complaining about winning seven cups in a row though.

That wasn't sport, that was a procession.
I'm excited and impatient to see the womens game grow as a sport in Scotland.

As for our team Hibs, Edinburgh City and the City of Edinburgh Council need to get a plan together to improve the viewing experience for spectators at Meadowbank. It is an unengaging arrangement at the moment. Seating well away from the pitch offering a worms eye view.
The current arrangement certainly killed Edinburgh City last season in what should have been an exciting new era for them.

That result was all on Celtic, they had the resources available but chose not to utilise them as they didn't see the value in it, so it most definitely was sport. It also differs from the Motherwell final, or the Montrose weekend result where you had/have teams achieving the absolute most they can at the time and still getting pummeled.

I agree about Meadowbank but Edinburgh Leisue don't seem that bothered, and also messed up the planning permission building of the football area. Just one of City's issues though

Very poor from the BBC, according to their website there are no fixtures being played today.

Which is funny given we've just beaten Aberdeen 6-2 in the League Cup

Monty at the game. Clearly keen to get a sense of every part of the club

Great result. Well done Hibs. Hope the men can do similar v the sheep in their League Cup semi.

More than 54k at the Arsenal v Liverpool Women's Super League clash today. Extraordinary.

Think most of the coaching staff were in attendance along with Brian McDermott and Kit Gordon. Good to see.

Brilliant to see them all down there for what was a great performance by Hibs Women.

[hibby rae]

Lawson's first with the assist from Shiv was like watching Le Fondre and Vente linking up. Brilliant from two CHs

And had the first-half overhead kick come off (it was close to), it would’ve been some goal given the build-up.

[Tambo]

Great result for the ladies.

Baucom on the score sheet again.

An absolutely fantastic result. :flag::flag::flag:

Decent draw for us in the quarter final of the League Cup, with the added bonus that either Celtic or Glasgow City go out.

Delighted with that, would have preferred an Edinburgh derby but can't complain!

An excellent idea. Hopefully a big attendance and a decent amount donated.

[Eyrie]

Bleep!

Missed last year due to Covid and was looking forward to this year but I've already got something that day.

Should be a good crowd though, particularly with the men's team not playing.

[hibby rae]

Partick at home 4pm, could be tricky fixture.

The game's on youtube if you can't make it down

[PHeffernan]

A quick look at the table after 8/9 games shows the top 3 teams already going off into the distance.
Hibs and Hearts equally predictably in 4th and 5th place with Partick Thistle again and an improving Aberdeen a few points behind them.
The other 5 teams are already tailed off with the bottom ones with massive negative goal differences.

Hibs need to win today.
New Hibs favourite Baucom has a great build for a player. Really looks the part.

[hibby rae]

Nice to see Hearts women enjoy a good old 2 nil up and f*** it up like their male counterparts.

Absolutely dreadful result for them 💚💚

Certainly is, but a fantastic effort from Montrose.
Kudos to them!

Hibs Women currently 0-2 down v Partick Thistle

Full-time. 0-2. Watched last 20 or so minutes and Thistle looked the better side. Hibs hit the bar late on and missed another good chance, but poor result.

Wasteful and naive performance from the Hibs girls from what I watched, pretty poor standard sadly.

[Golden Bear]

I watched the first half and really thought the hibee women would go to win. Hibs started poorly but were well on top going in at half time. I was surprised to find that they eventually lost by two goals as Thistle were certainly no world beaters.

[hibby rae]

Dominated the game, hit the woodwork 3 times. Not our day.

Despite it being a defeat, I think Hearts had the worse result given the opposition.

Partick manager Brian Graham really has had his team playing for him since last season and
£ for £ they continue to be the best team in the league.

Hibs were actually the better team for at least the first hour but the Thistle keeper had a good game.

Sounds like a saw the worst of it! I so want them to do well, but it looks to me like Scottish Women's football has settled into the same hierarchical pattern as the Men's game, with the honourable exception of Glasgow City.

Women's league going the same way as the men's with the cash invested in the Glasgow big two.

A classic Edinburgh derby across the city. Spartans 2-0 up and hearts somehow won 4-3.
