Livi v Hibs

[Brightside]

Friday and no mention of the game tomorrow? Are we all just fed up with this season? :greengrin

Any thoughts on the team and the game itself. Be interesting to see if Livi have the same push for points now they have cemented top6.

[nonshinyfinish]

Be interesting to see if Livi have the same push for points now they have cemented top6.

Nailing down 5th place and possible European qualification is surely significant motivation.

[Brightside]

The game is on Alba at 6pm.

[Hibbyradge]

Gogic.

[B.H.F.C]

Nisbet will come in for Cadden with Boyle going right I think. Can’t see any other changes.

[number9dream]

I really hope we go with Nisbet & Doidge up top and get after them with a good aggressive tempo right from the start.
Irvine did quite well when pushed left midfield last weekend and he can tuck in a bit to allow Doig to get forward. Boyle motoring up and down the right.

[bingo70]

Think the last time we played them there Daryl Horgan destroyed them down the wings. I’m not sure if their personnel has changed a lot since then?

I’d be tempted to play a 442.

Get Doidge and Nisbet up front together again, Boyle and Murphy on the wings. I’d probably go for Gogic and Irvine in the centre of midfield.

Cadden at right back.

Would mean Paul Mcginn and Newell missing out but i think if we take the game to them and get them on the back foot we’ll win.

Paul McGinn hasn't done anything to be dropped and I don't think he will be.

It wouldn't surprise me if Ross went for exactly the same starting lineup as he did at Pittodrie.

I don’t disagree with you, I’m not sure he will be dropped either.

I don’t think Cadden has done anything to serve being dropped either though and if I’m wanting to get Doidge and Nisbet up top together again that means Boyles out on the right and somethings got to give.

I’ve chosen Mcginn to get dropped cos I like the idea of a raj gung ho approach and trying to win the game 6-5 instead of 1-0.

I suspect Jack Ross will be a bit more cautious though and I also suspect he’s probably right to do so.

[Since452]

All about matching Aberdeen's result from here on in. Vey tricky game for them away to Dundee United. A win for us tomorrow would probably put 3rd out of reach for them.

Match Aberdeens result tomorrow and 3rd is nearly done imo. Better it and it’s over. A big incentive for the club tomorrow to go and get the 3 points.

[danhibees1875]

Don't find it easy to pick a team or formation these days - there's a mix of possibilities and I'd be happy with pretty much any of them.

Personally I like a 3-5-2:

Marciano
McGinn Porteous Hanlon
Boyle Cadden Irvine Newall Doig
Nisbet Doidge

But wouldn't mind a 4-3-3 either which also gets Gogic in there too:

Marciano
Cadden Porteous Hanlon Doig
Irvine Gogic Newall
Boyle Doidge Nisbet

My thought exactly, even if it means Nisbet has to come a bit further back when we don't have posession, he is due a start for me, and there would be nothing better when were on the front foot than having Nisbet and Doige up top.

[Wheat Hound]

But wouldn't mind a 4-3-3 either which also gets Gogic in there too:

Marciano
Cadden Porteous Hanlon Doig

That's the team for me

[CMurdoch]

Re Livingston
They have been weekened by the loss of two essential players.
1. Ciaron Brown, the big strong defender was recalled by Cardiff on the 31st January. No-one on here seemed to notice his departure but his loss has damaged Livingston.
2. Striker Robinson has fallen out with Martindale about his contract and is no longer being selected and will move on at the end of the season. He has been replaced by JET or as I like to call him, Tractor. The big guy has good feet but is immobile and is forever having the ball taken off him by wee nippy guys.

So he did. It seems a hundred years ago. It's funny how quickly you forget about players, isn't it? Any idea how he's been doing since his move south?

You wouldn't want to eat a fish supper queuing at the turnstyle at Arbroath my friend

[Highwayman]

My first thought is that JR will start with the same team as that against Ross County.
IMO however he needs to find a formation that will give both Doidge and Nisbet a start and a midfield that can get the better of Livingstons midfield.
I can’t see any point in proposing a team leaving out Paul McGinn as JR has shown no inclination in giving him a rest.
I would start with Joe Newell on the bench and see how the game pans out and whether he is needed to be brought on.

I would go 3-4-3

Marciano
McGinn,Porteous,Hanlon
Cadden,Gogic,Irvine,Doig
Boyle,Doidge,Nisbet.

Cheers for clarifying.

In all honesty, I’ve never known the correct spelling so I tend to chop and change between raj and radge depending on the mood I’m in.

Would hope jack starts Nisbet and expect a tougher game I think from Ross County. Any way of 3 points will be big.

From now on, when people start arguing about what style of play Hibs should adopt..I think "Radge Gung-Ho" is the new "Ticky-Taca" and should be our tactics of choice ! :greengrin

They know people will pay it, I don’t see the problem.

Will have spent a lot more than that last year when I went through so see us get pumped.

[bingo70]

Greed to me suggests that there’s someone making loads of money off it.

They’re just trying to mitigate massive losses by making what they can when they get the chance to do so.

I’m now wanting to sound like a Billy big baws and I’m certainly not flush just now but I’ll be buying it. Good luck to them, hopefully they make a decent amount off it.

[Scotty Leither]

I really hope we start with the same intensity as last week and be at it right from the start. Hope JR doesn't "tinker" with formation/lineup too much, but if we can lock the door at the back, I think we will score.

3 points would really ramp it up for Aberdeen going into their game with Dun Utd (who still have an outside chance of Top 6) 9 points behind us.

Go to it, Hibernian.

[GreenCastle]

Think he will go same starting team as last week. We dominated 1st half but didn’t create much.

Though taking off Cadden for Nizzy changed the game, though we need width against Livi.

The last game at ER we played a formation of 4-3-3 which didn’t work with Mallan in the middle.

We need to be wary of JET as he scored a good goal last week and full of confidence.

Last 8 games against Livi..

Hibs wins - 2
Livi wins - 3
Draws - 3

Before that Hibs pretty dominant.

Really important game tomorrow before split - will be a more important win than last week especially if Aberdeen drop points.

They’re the highest price in the league for PPV and their justification (if they needed one) was that they wanted to ensure there was value in buying a season ticket.

Don’t know how many Hibs fans will pay £20 tomorrow but it’ll probably be several thousand less than the number of Hibs fans who would have paid to get in.

They’re also probably the club with the smallest support so they’ll need to make more than anybody else from this PPV. Realise Hamilton will run them close on that front though.

In the midst of deciding if I pay it or not...massive game, so will probably cave in but far too expensibe

[JammyDoidger]

After his goal last week, and his performance at livi earlier in the season nisbet has to start. Take Cadden out and get Boyle wide, Cadden couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo atm.

[Unseen work]

For me it’s a really tough one.

We played very well first half last week and dominated them all over the park but never created too much. Albeit if Cadden scores after 3 minutes the game changes.

Second half County came back into in, pressed and pinned us back a lot more and whilst we never dominated the match as much, we created far more chances with the game stretched.

Nisbet looked really sharp, scored and will be on a real high after his call up so he has to play.

Cadden for me has been really good in that role since he came in and dominates that side. I think he’s really important especially against teams like Livingston as he’s quick, direct, physical and helps out defensively.

Boyle was off form at wing back but since moving to striker has improved greatly and been banging them in

So who drops out? I genuinely have no idea, I don’t even know what I’d do.

Doidge should drop out because lack of goals etc but for me we’re just a better team when he plays. The ball sticks up front and he’s willing to take the brunt of the defenders aggression which allows Boyle or Nisbet to drift into areas and score.

I have a feeling we may go 442.

........................Marciano.............

McGinn.....Porteous....Hanlon....Doig...

Boyle.........Irvine........Newell......Cadden..

..................Nisbet.......Doidge......

I don’t necessarily agree with it. I don’t think Cadden is great on the left however he may be a good distraction and provide cover for Doig, and Gogic has been very good Imo.

But I think against Livi on that pitch it will be the plan to press high and get crosses in.

I also think 3 at the back would mean Livi punting balls in the corner, stretching our defence and trying to catch us out. A flat 4 would nullify that.

[mayo hibee]

So he did. It seems a hundred years ago. It's funny how quickly you forget about players, isn't it? Any idea how he's been doing since his move south?

Horgan seems to be a case of gone and very quickly forgotten. He's playing every week in a terrible Wycombe team. As ever he rarely plays the full 90, either starts or comes on as a sub. Both him and Wycombe look out of their depth in the Championship but both should find their level in League 1 next season.

Would have been useful for us this season I think, but given that he was on relatively high wages and the club may even have received a small transfer fee from Wycombe in addition to getting him off the wage bill, it made sense to sell.

Overall, despite one very memorable derby, he'll probably go down as another poor Lennon signing, especially given the funds involved.

[wookie70]

Cadden, barring his finishing, has been very good. I'd try and use pace against Livi. They will easily deal with Doidge as most teams do but may struggle against the movement of Boyle and Nisbet Particularly with the drive and pace in the wide areas with Cadden and Doig. Boyle and Nisbet are also by far our most likely players to score so I want them near the goals

I thought Cadden had a solid enough start but he’s been disappointing in the final third. No goals or assists and not a great deal of threat from him.

One assist in the last 15 outings for Doidge and he has passed up countless very good chances. Cadden could definitely have done better with his finishing but he has stuck some very good balls into the box and is far more a pest to the opposition than Doidge is. The only issue I can see with dropping Doidge is he is good when defending set pieces. That's why I would bring Daz back in.

Totally agree Doidge had been poor, I just think he’ll play. We were better last week when Boyle went wide and got Nisbet up with Doidge so I’d be surprised if that isn’t how we start today.

I think he will play too and that Boyle will be pushed out right with Nisbet in and Cadden out. I just think Doidge has deserved to be dropped for at least 6 weeks and there is a formation that allows us to get our most likely to score players in the danger zone so why not try it. Doidge will score eventually as he is getting so many chances he just needs to get some luck and schlaff one in. That might set him on a run like last year but he is misfiring badly and looks completely shot of confidence when in front of goal.

Dropped Doidge away at perth, lost. Brought him back, won.

Should be playing. Influence is clear. Vital part in winner last week, won penalty vs Hamilton. His influence even in last few games has been important.

[Eyrie]

3-4-1-2 for me.

Marciano obviously.

Porteous and Hanlon with freedom to carry the ball into midfield, and McGregor in the middle to defend.

Cadden and Doig provide an attacking threat. Irvine and Gogic work well as the centre pairing.

Motherwell and Hamilton (and every other club) were entitled to charge more if they wanted to.

Livingston are charging such a price for PPV to preserve the value for money for their season ticket holders, good on them I say. It's something I believe we should have done.

I think Livingston's approach is far better than Celtic's approach, who also say they want to preserve the value for money for their season ticket holders so they just refuse to offer PPV at all.

People don't need to buy it if they don't want to but I think it's right to at least offer it to people.

I don't really know what Celtic have to do with it, I didn't even mention them. And I don't know how you can say 'good on them' either, they don't provide a better product than any other team. In my opinion Hamilton have set a far better example, not selling season tickets but charging a reasonable price for PPV. For me that's a much better system than overcharging people for the same product. All about opinions I suppose. I still bought a ticket.

[147lothian]

Yip it does that and I recon a win today and third place is ours, it will be a tricky game, it could go either way IMO but if we do get a win top 4 is virtually gauranteed and we are in pole position for third, bring it on

For me that's a much better system than overcharging people for the same product. All about opinions I suppose. I still bought a ticket.

I know you didn't mention Celtic, I was just using them as a comparison to Livingston's approach. Both clubs will say they are doing what they are doing in order to protect the value of season ticket holders. Whilst I think that is the correct thing to do in a general sense (which is why I said "good on them") it really leaves you with two options;

1 - Make PPV more expensive.
2 - Don't make PPV available at all.

I realise Hamilton didn't sell any season tickets this season but, having decided to put them on sale, I support Livingston's decision to protect their most loyal supporters and give them as much value for money as possible given the circumstances.
