St Johnstone 0 - 1 Hibernian (Mallan)

I've no idea what Hibs are doing in training, but it's not passing.

I dont want to slate the mangaer so early but he has to take some of the blame for this **** we have been watxhin the last weeks Aye we had a good start but fn eye bleedin stuff.

We stole a win against Dundee Utd also tbh. The football has been pretty rough with the exception of the Livingston game. Good points haul but it's going to be a long slog with these types of performances.

[GreenCastle]

Our league is shocking - no wonder Sky don’t pay much for it.

[WillowbraeHibby]

This is absolutely brutal. That's about the sum of my input.

[Mon Dieu4]

And we’ve got Mbappé and Lewandowski to put it all into perspective later.

If we have money to spend on a player then maybe we should buy one of them for a week

Vicious circle. No money in the league, no quality on the park.

[gogsy23]

Totally agree. Walker spouts tripe and beaton is so inconsistent its unreal. Someone buy graham chambers a pint the next time they see him 😁👌



I'm not sure which is worse. Beaton's refereeing or Walker's commentary.

I have to admit that this morning on my way to work I looked at the table and felt the chance of creating that 5 point gap between us and County would be lost, we’d draw the game and vital points would be lost.

Well I’ll take a 90th minute penalty to pick up another 3 points on the road. Well done boys, might not have been pretty but a win is a win

[one day maybe...]

[Tambo]

3 clean sheets out of 5 games and Do feel we are much solid at the back but still lack some energy in the midfield with Gogic.

Thought Wright played well when he came on, wasn't afraid to get stuck in.

Little disappointing attacking wise again though I think we can all agree, he didn't have the worse game but i think Boyle has been poor so far this season. If he is going to play like that all season then let's cash in lol

[Hibernia&Alba]

We didn't deserve to win that game; a draw would have been the right result, but the three points are gratefully accepted from a terrible match.

Considering we were due a penalty in the first half too I don't think he can complain that much. They should have had a goal but they could have conceded another penalty and also been down to ten men for that lunge on Allan.

People need to take a step back and see how Scottish football is at the moment. Celtic and rangers aren’t getting it all there own way away from home so anybody expecting us to are in a dream world. If 1-0 away from home is good enough for the ugly sisters then it’s good enough for us

Solid at the back, too many players just too inconsistent never knowing what you're getting from them ( Newell, Horgan, Allan etc ) We need 2 midfielders, 1 to hold onto the ball and the other to drive forward with pace and energy.

[Alfred E Newman]

St Johnstone manager accusing Hanlon of making it an easy decision for the ref to give a penalty.

Absolute bollocks. Clear as day.

I thought Calum Davidson was refreshingly honest inhis post match comments. He also did less moaning about the disallowed goal than Walker and Co.

[Hibs Class]

Same number of wins by late August as Hearts managed all last season

[CyberSauzee]

Poor that the analysis at HT and FT just highlighted the goal that SJ should have had, especially if we had VAR. If we had VAR they would have picked up on the hand used by a SJ defender in the first half that stopped a goal bound shot; that Andy Walker described in commentary as a harsh decision if it was a penalty. Can't blame officials for missing it but VAR would have given us a penalty and a Saints goal first half.

[Real Emerald]

I thought Calum Davidson was refreshingly honest inhis post match comments. He also did less moaning about the disallowed goal than Walker and Co.

Totally agree, he was totally professional, gave Hibs credit, criticised his defence for not getting to the ball first and showed his annoyance at Craig getting sent off. He didn’t say anything about the goal that was wrongly chopped off and wasn’t keen on VAR.

If VAR was available in that game, they would have also had a man sent off earlier and a penalty against them. The countless blatant fouls they made and the unbelievable moment when Bolyle was wiped out without punishment didn’t help the game flow but that’s what they tried to do against us. We came through in the end with all 3 points GGTTH

[CMurdoch]

Agree looked lively and the only man capable of beating an opponent and making space. Appeared trimmer and fitter than on his debut.

Re Wright appearing fitter than debut, I thought that as well. I thought Gullan looked good as well today.
Ross is very pragmatic in both the players he signs and the way his team plays which will frustrate Hibs supporters at times but his way will win far more matches than the supporters way would.
P.S. I watched McCrorie playing for Aberdeen today and he is a typical Ross type player. All cake and no icing. I reckon Ross will be gutted at not getting him in and will be looking for a similar alternative. Hope he doesn't get tempted by a Vela :wink:.

Sick of all this winning pish

[theonlywayisup]

I think we must give Jack Ross huge credit for the last four games. He changed a winning team to the counteract a Livi team who normally play well on their plastic pitch. Then in the last three games he tried to changed the flow of the game and it worked in two of the games, albeit fortuitously.

As has been stated before, he's also picked up more points apart from Celtic & The Rangers since he joined us.

[Keith_M]

Highlights just started on Sportscene...

[MacGruber]

Well that was pretty poor again following the performance v Motherwell, however, 3 point, clean sheet & top of the league so delighted.

We were poor but special mention for the impact of all the subs today, thought they all did well. Gullan looks bright, him and Wright combined well and got us back on the front foot at the end. Halberg probably won't get much of a memtion but he came on and did well. Mallan can be frustrating at times but is cleary a talented footballer and penalty never in doubt.

13 out of 15 - superb start

Not a great game to watch but credit the team for not giving up. GGTTH

Brian McLaughlin is such a negative journalist, trying to goad Callum Davidson into criticising the referee but he isn't having any of it


F*** you Neil McCann, why the bbc let him comment on hibs games.


I thought Calum Davidson was refreshingly honest inhis post match comments. He also did less moaning about the disallowed goal than Walker and Co.

Never caught the game as I was working but listened to radio Scotland on the way home. Neil McCann was absolutely boaking and the entire thrust of the broadcast was about how Callum Davidson should be raging. Then McGlaughlin interviewing Davidson and Ross only interested in trying to ramp up any controversey.

Ok, we got lucky but Rangers and Celtic do tha kind of thing all the time and don’t get that overbearing negativity about daring to win a game ugly.

BBC is really **** these days.

Newell is a squad player only. So need someone who can take control in the middle.

Totally agree, he was totally professional, gave Hibs credit, criticised his defence for not getting to the ball first and showed his annoyance at Craig getting sent off. He didn’t say anything about the goal that was wrongly chopped off and wasn’t keen on VAR.

If VAR was available in that game, they would have also had a man sent off earlier and a penalty against them. The countless blatant fouls they made and the unbelievable moment when Bolyle was wiped out without punishment didn’t help the game flow but that’s what they tried to do against us. We came through in the end with all 3 points GGTTH

Spot on [emoji122] great post

We are going to need a squad more than ever this season and his quality will certainly play his part

I thought the pair of them dragged us up a level.

We were better for the last 5-10 minutes and had a bit more urgency.

I liked the look of Wright tbh.

Good penalty from Mallan, even if he was quiet during the game.

Good day for the subbies.

That midfield though. Another 90 minutes of evidence that we just don’t have that part of the team sorted at all. Shame, because the defence was solid (again) and Doidge had a decent shift up front.
Defence wasnt solid at all, we were getting ripped open down our left side, fortunately for us they didnt have a striker.
Delighted to get a win but we dont look like a good team, agree Doidge was excellent.

McLaughlin is torture trying at every attempt to get a manager to say something controversial. Jack Ross must be doing his head in have to listen to his self important tortuous questions at his press conferences.

Arrived into work this morning, our win was the first topic of discussion, both the Ayr Utd and the Kilmarnock fan waxing lyrical about a "fantastic" away performance. Solid at the back, dangerous on the counter and took the chance at the end.

I was a bit like, I thought we could have played a bit better which led to more discussion about how it was a solid, solid, away performance.
