Stole it

[h1bs4life]

Stole it, who gives one.
Well done Stevie Mallan brave to step up and take the penalty

[Vault Boy]

Sometimes these victories feel even sweeter. The audacity of Hibs to win that match today. Pure cheek.

[Since452]

Ground it out Aberdeen style. Take it all day long

[MyJo]

Didn’t deserve to win that game what-so-ever

Dreadful performance but certainly won’t complain about picking up three points from that

[The_Exile]

Yep, win at all costs though, couldn't care less about the performance, a win is a win, end of.

[Andy74]

We had pretty much all the decent chances so not really.

[hfc rd]

A win is a win and you can’t complain with that.

[Vault Boy]

We had pretty much all the decent chances so not really.

If they hadn't had a wrongly disallowed goal, I'd agree with this 100%. Because of that, I'll agree with it 90%. :greengrin

We definitely created more and really limited their opportunities. The midfield didn't really exist, which meant it was a slog, but the balance of chances were very much in our favour.

[Bobby's Cinema]

Well done Stevie Mallan delighted for him.

Dire stuff today but no accident where we are it's clear we have a manager that knows his best team and knows the problem areas to be improved.

Onwards and upwards. Great start Hibs :aok::aok:

[Carheenlea]

Not much between the sides but thought we maybe shaded it.

Nothing stolen at all. Well done Hibs and well done Stevie Mallan for a no-nonsense spot kick that keeps our fine start to the season going. When this side really gels we’ve lots to look forward to.

[Since452]

It's about time a Hibs team showed a bit of backbone to grind out wins. ****ing delighted.

[tonyrougier123]

How many times have st Johnstone done that to us at Easter road??own medicine 🤢🤮🤫🤫🤫

[Pretty Boy]

I'm not sure we deserved to win that. Boyle's strike and the save before Doidge's disallowed goal apart I don't remember too many clear cut chances.

We limited them to very little as well although they will feel aggrieved about the disallowed goal. Let's say that balances against the penalty we were denied.

A game that had 0-0 written all over and we have won it 1-0. It wasn't pretty but I'll take it. There is more to come from this Hibs team.

[green day]

We are now totally solid at the back.

Midfield needs some work, but for how many years have we been saying that nice football and being too soft is the Hibs way?

Aberdeen are lauded for a "winning attitude" for wins exactly like that one.

3 points, looked crap, but lets get more players in and kick on.

For me, the biggest thing is defensive solidity and - despite some saying he had a bad game - that starts with Gogic.

[Hibernia&Alba]

We had pretty much all the decent chances so not really.

It was an awful offside decision against them. We got a lucky break today, and sometimes you need luck.

[Waxy]

It was a 50/50 game and we won it.
No one should complain as it has went the other way more often than not in the past.
Maybe it’s our lucky year.
