Got a few messages about tomorrow’s game not being listed on some bookies, anyone heard anything about it being called off or being in danger of being called off?

Reading the various posts made me wonder if there have been whispers about one of the teams being affected by a coronavirus outbreak - obviously this is pure speculation on my part.

Aye, it's very odd.

Still listed on Hibs, Kilmarnock and BBC Websites. Kilmarnock are advertising PPV packages for the game.

BBC has stories on positive Covid tests at St Mirren (yesterday) and Motherwell (today) but nothing about Hibs or Kilmarnock.

St Mirren’s cases seem to be never ending.

Seen and heard nothing. Maybe the bookies are trying to hold out late on the odds in case there is a covid issue that makes for easy money for the punters. They may be the ones who have heard a whisper.

Incidentally, Hibs could be top of the players avoiding Covid league with Rangers & possibly St Johnstone although that could change very quickly. Ofir must have been a near miss when away with Israel recently. Fortunately will have been frequently tested since returning and nothing has surfaced.

Wee team mentality, everyone knows the truly big clubs are top of the statement league.

Hopefully it's on, would think Killie would have pulled the PPV for the game by now if it was in danger.

Pre match press conference should be later today right? I'm sure we'll find out everything then.

I mind a game at McDiarmid Park many, many moons ago where it was pelting it down with snow in Livingston prompting calls to Perth to confirm if the game was on. "Oh yes" they said "the sun is splitting the trees here".

We arrived in Perth and sure enough, it had started snowing. I think there were folk out with brushes cleaning the lines and all sorts but nonetheless, the game went ahead and we went in nil-nil at half time (iirc).

Everyone fired inside for a bit warmth and a pie and bovril before taking their seats again at which point the game was called off.

I trust nothing and no-one.

This will be the reason.
The bookies will have got a sniff about a press conference/announcement affecting Kilmarnock and been holding off just in case it affected their business

Think the Killie disciplinary action relate to their game against Motherwell being postponed 3 weeks ago, rather than an indication of any positive tests now

Pre-match press conferences on YouTube now so game must be on. Glad cause I've already paid for the PPV.

Don't know what's going on with these press conference just now. No team news from Jack again and the background shoddily superimposed on

He did mention team news. He said Murphy and SA were still out, Doig back training on Thursday. Did you want him to read out the team?
He's now doing his conference remotely. Is that a problem?

Apart from him giving team news? Allan, Murphy, Wright and Doig all mentioned.
Press conferences look like they are done via the Web like alot of EPL do their press conferences to reduce contacts. Seemed fine to me.

Sky seems to be the only bookie to have the game priced up. Bet365,PP, Ladbrokes and Hills don't. Very odd.

I was at that game too but I thought it didn’t make it to half-time.

Edit - the game was called off at ht -

Don't do it. I take full responsibility for our result last week, I knew when pressing the button to add Hibs to the accumulator it was wrong, but I did it anyway!

Very strange. St Mirren game off but was still listed on Betfair. Our game nowhere to be seen. Just noticed Betfair have taken down all matches in SPL today, must be sorting it now.

Hibs social media saying it's Game Day and they probably know the story.

Edit: Matchday, even.

Bet365 are currently pricing the game and should be available nearer KO. Must be doubts about player availability due to Covid for them to leave it this late.

Yep. Odd times when we are considering bookie sites as a source for fixture information when all actual football sources clearly have the game listed.

It's on William Hill if you search specifically for Hibs.

Killie - 9/5
Draw - 23/10
Hibs - 7/5

Can't do a bet builder or anything yet though. Hopefully you can later.

Here's the latest odds I've seen regarding the game:

Bet Said Fred: Game actually off - 2/15
Paddy Powerless: Game to be a washout - 77/1
Hill-billy Hills: Game to be played at Rugby Park - 0.105602
Coral Reefs: Hibs to play in new third strip - 2/1
Broke Lads: Hibs Fans to blame plastic pitch for poor display - Evens

Not really, the thread was started before the press conferences etc has completed and was on the back of a couple of messages I’d received asking if i knew if the game was off, which i think is reflected in the opening post.

Fwiw, i don’t bet on the games.
