Semi Final Build Up

[Magpie]

Starting to get excited about this weekend. It feels like an age since we saw the team play. 4 new contracts in the last 4 days. Memories of the last time we played The Rangers at Hampden coming back to me. I have got a ticket for the game on Sunday in the exact same seat that I had for that day in 2016. Come on the Hibees.

Let’s hope we batter them on and off the pitch once again 👍🏻💚

[SON OF PADDY]

I feel extremely confident about Sunday's game, we haven't got anything to fear from them?
Get right into them from the first whistle and don't show them any respect,their nothing special.
If I could send the team any advice it would be this, you play for Hibernian FC and you're more than capable of winning this game.
Show no fear, you play for the Hibees!

[gbhibby]

I have never seen us lose a semi final against them,oldco, at Hampden.

Likewise mate,bring them on!

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

Not been to Hampden since 2017 semi v Aberdeen. Looking forward to a good day out and a few beers. Has a feeling similar to 2004 semi when nobody gave us a chance, that was a great night.

[Selkirkhibs]

Whatever the result may be, and we all hope its a winning one, that we go into the game with a sporting fighting up and atom spirit. Could be another historic win against the Rangers at Hampden.

[Glory Lurker]

We win 4-0 when they've got a caretaker boss. Scientific fact.

[SON OF PADDY]

That night in 2004 I was in hospitality, low and behold who was also there?
None other than our own Ian Murray,sitting with his agent Jim McArthur 😡
Started talking to Ian about his long injury problems and his decision whether to stay at Hibs.
Much to my disgust fatboy Jim quickly intervenes, " He's signing for the rangers "
Guess who had the ****ing last laugh that night?

[Keith_M]

Last time I was at Hampden, we lost 5-2 to Celtc.

I hope this Sunday's a bit better.

Looking forward to it now.

A few beers and 90 minutes of siege mentality surrounded by 40K huns? Count me in.

Same here. Hope the weather is better too!

[gbhibby]

We will need to work our socks off on and off the park. Let's keep up the record against them at Hampden. Want the team to leave nothing on the park. Get intae them.

[Iggy Pope]

Biggest game in a while now certainly that any of us get to see, now we are back to normal, whatever that is.
Get ****ing into them Hibs.

[Hibees1973]

Hope we show some semblance of being organised tomorrow and at the very least make it difficult for them, similar to St Johnstone tonight.

One of the usual cliches of 'not losing an early goal' is vital tomorrow.

Based on what I've seen from us recently we only have a 10% chance of winning.

Sorry, but don't see the need for any foolish bravado or stupid predictions.

[davhibby]

If we turn up in the way we did at Ibrox earlier in the season we’ll win. If the Hibs of the last 3 games since turn up we’ll get horsed. I think the break will have done us some good and we’ll be back to our best tomorrow

If we show the same attitude as we did at Ibrox for the first 45 when we absolutely bossed them before the red card we will be more than capable of winning.

[Stuart93]

My worry is more the game being a semi final at Hampden as opposed to it being rangers. 3 out of 4 games there under JR we’ve barely turned up.

Would be nice to see us actually play well, I could live with defeat if we’ve actually gave it a go. Another repeat of the SC final or last seasons league cup semi final and there’ll be big questions marks

[Pretty Boy]

Up bright and early and buzzing for it now.

C'mon Hibs. Right in about these supercilious we urra peepul, just celebrating oor culkchur, let's all dress in orange because we totally love Holland, manky, bigoted, ah drive 300 hunner miles to Ibrox cos ma da spent the day in Govan once ah'm no a glory hunter *****.

[hibsbollah]

I’m up to my knees in Foolish bravado.

[CelticEnd]

Anyone know if they're selling tickets for the game pre-match up at Hampden today?

[Tambo]

Nothing to lose for me. I just hope we give it a good battle and show some urgency.

Agree. No expectations. But we need to give this a proper go, right from the start.

Spot on. Let them know they are in a game on the park and let them hear us off the park. Lets do it today.

[JimBHibees]

Not sure. Think they might be reluctant to do so.

[Dazzjw1875]

Is this game live only on Premier sports.?

[marinello59]

Buzzing. North East supporters bus leaving Aberdeen now. Bring it on. :hibees:hibees

[AliboyFC]

Am off to Glesga now. :hibees:hibees

3 Perfectly made poached eggs to start the day off :yum yum::drool:

[FitbaFolkKen]

Just got this off a Rangers mate who was saying he’s worried about today [emoji15]

Covid outbreak - both Paterson and Tav out, so Ryan Jack will need to play there. Morelos also out. And apparently Defoe and McGregor have been arguing all week.

I wonder what they were arguing about? Defoe- ‘ I reckon you are the angriest man in football, blud’ McGregor- ‘ no I’m ****ing not you ****ing ****’ Or something like that.

[Mark05]

[WhileTheChief..]

Struggling to get excited for this one.

Not followed any of the build up or seen any interviews or anything. Not expecting a result so will be pleasantly surprised if we somehow pull it off.

[Jim44]

Dougray Scott on Sunday Brunch just now talking about the game.

Pretty much my thoughts, would be nice if Jack Ross finally managed to break his duck against one of the old firm.

[Moulin Yarns]

What's Sunday Brunch?

A daytime TV programme, or a meal taken late morning that replaces breakfast and lunch

[Magpie]

Josh Campbell starting today.

[Billy Whizz]

Don’t leak any team news please

[Franck Stanton]

Thats seriously unfair. The hearts game we 100% did turn up. Penalty not given in the 90th minute. Penalty missed in ET. Multiple good saves from their keeper. We just lost, it is possible to do that while still turning up.

Fair enough. I hope we don’t turn in performances like we did in the two St J games then. And generally have done at Hampden so far under JR.

FWIW we should’ve hammered hearts in the semi.

[Keith_M]

Union Jacks, Dutch Flags and Orange T-Shirts everywhere.

Wouldn't be surprised if a Flute Band turned up next

[Iggy Pope]

The 14:45 to Kings Park is very quiet!

Why should we have hammered them? It was Hearts, not Kelty hearts. Was always going to be very close, like all derbies.

[cabbageandribs1875]

spare a thought for some travelling by train, there's a post on fb that all passengers on the train her daughter was travelling on to Glasgow for the game were told to get off at Bathgate as train(s) to Glasgow had been cancelled at last minute ?

There's a nice 352 and a pish 4231 to be made out of those players.

Let's hope it's the former.

[Magpie]

Gutted there’s no Murphy. Come on Josh 👍🏻

[ancient hibee]

Murphy missing in action yet again?

When has he ever been in action, the invisible man.
