Playoff shoot-out with St J last game of the season

[Onceinawhile]

We'll beat St mirren and be safe.

Why can't the Sunday game be a 3 o clock though

[Rondon]

Can you imagine how poor the attendances are going to be for these games?!

Playoff shoot-out with St J last game of the season

Why are we playing Saints at home three times and Dundee away three times? Might get be a decent crowd for the relegation shoot out last game. :greengrin

[JimBHibees]

We'll beat St mirren and be safe.

Why can't the Sunday game be a 3 o clock though

Tv give us a few more hours to rest the players for the final the following Saturday :greengrin

[BoomtownHibees]

We'll beat St mirren and be safe.

Why can't the Sunday game be a 3 o clock though

St Mirren realise they are in a bit of trouble. Will be fighting to avoid the playoff spot. We are sleepwalking right in to it without an ounce of fight in us. They are ***** but are we any better?

[Broken Gnome]

Chuffed we've been spared the ignominy of the home Livi and St Mirren games, which a host of meaningless games would have been the least attractive.

I'm away the 13th and 14th May, and I'd be lying if I said I'd be that set on chasing the wife out a hotel to make that Sunday 12pm kick-off...

[skyehibee]

We could easily lose them all

[bingo70]

We could easily lose them all

Good post

[flash]

We could easily lose them all

We could easily win them all. Or draw them all. Or a combination of all three.
I like this game.

[SHODAN]

Probably can't make the Aberdeen game so it'll be the semi final and St Johnstone for me.

[wookie70]

St Mirren first up is a real result. They are playing poorly and under even more pressure than us. Their manager is also battering square pegs into round holes so I could see us winning that game. Not sure we will win any of the others but might grind out a 0-0 or two. St Johnstone could easily win their first two against Dundee and St Mirren and it could get interesting very quickly

[JimBHibees]

Why are top 6 on Saturday in case Rangers get to the europa league final?

[JimBHibees]

We could easily lose them all

Or win them all :greengrin

[SteveHFC]

Wonder if AST holders will get the chance not to buy tickets for these remaining away games?

[Rondon]

Why are top 6 on Saturday in case Rangers get to the europa league final?

Cos bottom 6 is diddy football for diddy teams which is why it’s an absolute embarrassment we are in it

[JamesHFC]

Dundee v St Johnstone first game of the split, hopefully Dundee beat them. I’d really enjoy sending St Johnstone down last game of the season.

[JimBHibees]

Cos bottom 6 is diddy football for diddy teams which is why it’s an absolute embarrassment we are in it

Not really more to do with Rangers possibly being in the final.

[JohnM1875]

Not a single bottom six game shown on Sky despite it being a close relegation battle.

All five of Celtic games being shown. Not really a surprise I guess.

[MWHIBBIES]

St Mirren realise they are in a bit of trouble. Will be fighting to avoid the playoff spot. We are sleepwalking right in to it without an ounce of fight in us. They are ***** but are we any better?

Yes, we are. Why won't we be fighting? Why won't they be sleepwalking towards it?

[JimBHibees]

Not a single bottom six game shown on Sky despite it being a close relegation battle.

All five of Celtic games being shown. Not really a surprise I guess.

An appalling tv deal. Dundee St Johnstone should definitely be getting shown

[BoomtownHibees]

Yes, we are. Why won't we be fighting? Why won't they be sleepwalking towards it?

Have you watched us lately? You think we are up for a battle? We couldn’t even get up for a fight against our biggest rivals at the weekend in a game we had to win and they had nothing to play for. What makes you think these games will be any different?

Are we losing every week?

From the SPFL website -
Sky Sports may select a bottom-six game on May 15 for live coverage in due course

I’m sure they had the opportunity of broadcasting 48 games last season and only chose 41 games. They have no interest other than showing Celtic and Rangers, that’s where the views and subscriptions come from.

[JimBHibees]

Funny that there is no title race to speak of then in that case.

[BoomtownHibees]

Not every week. But more often than winning

[The dalmeny]

get an Acca on to keep some interest

[eastterrace]

Why are we playing Saints at home three times and Dundee away three times? Might get be a decent crowd for the relegation shoot out last game. :greengrinst.Johnstone game will be a dead rubber. Probably will give it a miss as so pissed off with it all. Might go to Aberdeen game as we might be able to put them In the play off spot😂

[JohnM1875]

50/1 to finish in the bottom 2 with Skybet. Can't see it myself but reckon a few will be tempted with that.

[mcfly]

Chief executive has been v quiet since we are in bottom 6.

How is he gonna convince fans to buy season tickets?

Not done a great job so far imo

[MWHIBBIES]

We beat Motherwell, and had Melkerson not missed an open goal we'd have beat united as well. We'll comfortably stay up. Would this be the first time we'd lost to Hearts and then won a few games?

There is no battle, we're miles clear and will remain miles clear.

[Billy Whizz]

Tough start for Hibs, but we have a decent record at Paisley
When did they start playing top 6 on the Saturday instead of the Sunday

[flash]

Not every week. But more often than winning

Indeed but so are St Johnstone, Dundee, Aberdeen and St Mirren.

[JamesHFC]

St Johnstone getting 9 points from 5 games and us losing every game isn’t going to happen 😂

[Coco Bryce]

Our season finishes on Saturday.

[davhibby]

I’m sure they had the opportunity of broadcasting 48 games last season and only chose 41 games. They have no interest other than showing Celtic and Rangers, that’s where the views and subscriptions come from.

Whoever is in charge at sky when it comes to picking the games is making a mess of things. There’s at least another 4/5 games they could be showing in the relegation battle/European fight that would get decent figures. They gave up the derby at the weekend to show Hearts v Rangers post split and they now aren’t doing that, which based on the last derby viewing figures and recent rangers games will have meant the game they showed on Sunday will have been about 100k down on what they would’ve had if they showed our game.

The SPFL should be trying to negotiate a secondary tv deal with someone else if Sky aren’t even going to bother showing the games they’ve paid for already

[flash]

Our season finishes on Saturday.

We shall see.

[Billy Whizz]

Our season finishes on Saturday.

It doesn’t regardless of the score
If we don’t play well and suffer a bad defeat, we’ve got tough away fixtures after the split
I’m hoping we get a result on Saturday though

[Coco Bryce]

We shall see.

We shall.

[JimBHibees]

Tough start for Hibs, but we have a decent record at Paisley
When did they start playing top 6 on the Saturday instead of the Sunday

Think it may be because Europa final is midweek after and Rangers may be in it. May be totally wrong in that

[flash]

We shall.

Well some of us will.

The rest will be at home in their nappies.:greengrin

[Coco Bryce]

I'm praying we win on Saturday. Realistically though we haven't looked like beating anyone for a while. We won't go down though. Draws all the way.

[Coco Bryce]

Well some of us will.

The rest will be at home in their nappies.:greengrin

I'm wearing mine to the game. Bogs at Hampden are a nightmare with all the smokers 😀

Yeah final is Wednesday 18th May

[ballengeich]

Why are we playing Saints at home three times and Dundee away three times? Might get be a decent crowd for the relegation shoot out last game. :greengrin
Probably so that Saints and Dundee can each get a total of 19 home and away.

[Alfred E Newman]

st.Johnstone game will be a dead rubber. Probably will give it a miss as so pissed off with it all. Might go to Aberdeen game as we might be able to put them In the play off spot😂

The St Johnstone game better be or we are in trouble.

[JXM73]

Can you imagine how poor the attendances are going to be for these games?!

I'll no be back this season...

[Lago]

I’m sure they had the opportunity of broadcasting 48 games last season and only chose 41 games. They have no interest other than showing Celtic and Rangers, that’s where the views and subscriptions come from.
In all honesty do you blame them?

[Logie Green]

St Johnstone getting 9 points from 5 games and us losing every game isn’t going to happen 😂

You’re probably correct but there’s other scenarios which could see them finishing above us. Hopefully not but we’ve seen this film before....

[flash]

I'll no be back this season...

I will so we cancel each other out.

[eastterrace]

I will so we cancel each other out.im no so we are now winning 2-1 😂

[flash]

im no so we are now winning 2-1 😂

Mine counts double for being a proper supporter.

[eastterrace]

Mine counts double for being a proper supporter.I was going to play my joker card 😂. In all seriousness I will probably go to Aberdeen game and that will be it.

[Leith Green]

To be honest, the last thing this current side needed was fixtures against rangers , celtic , and hearts.. Hopefully we can build a little confidence and maybe even try a couple of younger players in these games. So much work needing done to the first team squad this summer. Im not convinced maloney is the right man , but he must recognise the utterly garbage first team squad he had inherited

[Lester B]

We beat Motherwell, and had Melkerson not missed an open goal we'd have beat united as well. We'll comfortably stay up. Would this be the first time we'd lost to Hearts and then won a few games?

There is no battle, we're miles clear and will remain miles clear.

Well there’s optimism and there’s pure wibble. I think this is the latter.

[cabbageandribs1875]

no games on the telly box so WTF do we have to play St Johnstone at 12 noon on the sunday , ....off:grr:



Livi and Aberdeen games for me, i think :hmmm:

Yes they do the game a disservice. The Dundee Derby was a cracking big game at the weekend.

Playoff shoot-out with St J last game of the season

Pleased with that, I can make the St Johnstone game, only my second home game this season.

[SMAXXA]

We end up with an even split home and away end of season?

[Sir David Gray]

We end up with an even split home and away end of season?

Yes.

[Phil MaGlass]

Bugger, ah fancied going to the relegation game v St.J, cannae now its too early,:grr: aaarrgggh

[I'm Spartacus]

I think the 8 point gap is more than enough of a safety net, I don't think we will be pulled into anything of any concern. If we end up 10th then that is a complete embarrassment, on top of the embarrassment of not making the top 6.

[Coco Bryce]

Hibs should let fans in for a £1 for the St Johnstone game.

Crowd will be a shocker!!

[Bristolhibby]

Think it may be because Europa final is midweek after and Rangers may be in it. May be totally wrong in that

That’s 100% why. TBF why shouldn’t they support Scottish teams in Europe? Even if it is the filthy Huns.

Correct. 7th is the only acceptable outcome to this season.

Win the Cup mind and nobody will even remember finishing 7th.

Agreed though, win cup and nobody will remember 7th or 10th

[Bristolhibby]

I agree 7th is unacceptable. But as of now it’s the highest we can achieve, so we must achieve it.

Anything less is even more unacceptable.

Be a chance to see the kids against St Johnstone as we wrap the first team up in cotton wool before the Cup Final.

Agree with that. :greengrin

[Sir David Gray]

It's acceptable within the context of where we now find ourselves this season. We can't finish higher than 7th but we can (but absolutely should not) finish lower than 7th.

I agree that 7th should not be deemed remotely acceptable at the start of any league season.

[Coco Bryce]

Be a chance to see the kids against St Johnstone as we wrap the first team up in cotton wool before the Cup Final.

Fingers and eyes crossed :aok:

[Keith_M]

We're only two points above tenth but 8 points above 11th place.

We're not going to end up in the play-offs but could be in any spot between 7th and 10th, which is just not good enough.

Considering we finished 3rd last season then those in charge at the club, whether that's the Head Coaches or player Recruitment, have really ****ed up

Unfortunately it’s starting to get the feel of the early 2010s , bottom six , woeful squad , questionable managerial appointments , awful transfer windows.. Hope this changes soon , but history proved before that its not an easy or quick fix

[Leith Green]

7th is in no way acceptable

Agreed though, win cup and nobody will remember 7th or 10th



Its a negative view i know , but this current team do not have a cup win in it unfortunately.. Nowhere near good enough and a mentality to match

ta :aok: still a pizzer of a KO time on a sunday :(

[where'stheslope]

You could argue that what could be our hardest games are at home v Aberdeen and St Johnstone.
None of the games will be easy, but I'd rather play Aberdeen at home than away!!
Hopefully the St Johnstone game will be irrelevant when it comes round!!!!

If we’re safe and the St Johnstone game could see them overtake Aberdeen then we should let them win :agree:

[drummondst34]

The Aberdeen home game, at last, one this year, that I can get to, ooh ahh, from Leamington Spa.
What with working alternate Saturdays, odd k.o times, restrictions , little, no, or expensive west
coast trains, have found a new way to get to the Hibees.

Hour and a half drive to Stevenage, get the 6am Lumo train , & return at 6pm, 4 hours each way,
with a senior railcard £42 day return !

Will try this way next season too, as can get advance return fares on this train from £35 !!
Hopefully from these five fixtures, we will get confidence from , and the cup !! We can look forward
to being better next season .
