2022-23 season non-Hibs games thread

[flash]

Just watched Scotland under 19s lose 1-0 to Iceland.
Murray Johnston absolutely outstanding in goals.

[The Modfather]

I've only just realised this game is taking place, have I just missed all the advertising of it or has it been lacking?

Same here. I didn’t know there were any friendlies on today, far less Scotland were playing. Looks like it got lost in amongst all the chat about the World Cup. Good to see Super John score though.

Keeper was pulled back twice and barged once , 3 different Forrest Green players booked for fouling keeper , dreadful tactical play to watch.

I think that’s right. Stillian Petrov played for Villa then as well and Bannan was in midfield with him

I'd say Stirling University beating Albion Rovers and Darvel beating Montrose are both massive shocks.

On paper those seem stunning results but is it perhaps attributable to lowering standards in the 'big' leagues? I remember Jim McInally (I think) saying last summer he could no longer compete with non-league sides for players.

Montrose are currently in a promotion play off spot in League One, they should definitely be winning at home to Darvel in the West of Scotland Premier Division.

Stirling University beating Albion Rovers is probably less of a shock but Albion Rovers were also at home so you would still expect them to win that.

As it stand there will now be a 6 point gap between 4th and 5th in the championship.

Dundee will be 1 point behind in 2nd.

With the Hibs links I'm cheering on Queens Park and would be some achievement if they can manage it through the title or play offs.

I went along to EEP yesterday. £20 to get in to watch league 1 football and that was the cheapest ticket. They wanted £22 to sit in the main stand.

I thought Hibs were bad to watch? The match was absolutely horrendous, barely any football played and the ball spent more time up in the air or out of play that it did on the deck. 2 very poor teams in a very poor league. QoTS time wasted constantly and were happy to settle for a point from the word go. The boy Todorov up front for Dunfermline was semi decent but nowhere near SPL level.

[Tambo]

Injury-ravaged Inverness Caledonian Thistle have warned fans about making a 340-mile journey to watch their team as they will essentially be fielding a youth side against Hamilton Academical.

The club says "it is only fair" their supporters are aware of the effect of their injury list before they purchase tickets for the SPFL Trust Trophy tie.

Accies host Inverness on successive weekends before Christmas.

The club referred to a "lack of assistance" from the SPFL.

In a statement on the club website, Inverness indicate that because of their "continued unprecedented injury situation", the club has "no choice but to play a team in this tie which will not include many of our current first team squad".

Aberdeen were tragic there, didn't even bother having a go. 2 shots the whole game.

Aberdeen's game plan was basically just to defend the whole match ( nearly worked though) . 19% possession at home , 2 shots , 0 on target, 0 corners is pretty S***e statistics for any home team!

Helps if you sign a proven goalscorer, though. Someone should tell our recruitment team that.

Kevin Nisbet and Martin Boyle were big outlays, we've been unfortunate with injuries with both.

[Alfred E Newman]

Biscuits almost wet himself there!

[flash]

You know that's a stat which does not matter. If we got points for shots we would be higher up the league.

Not sure why Aberdeens performance is relevant anyway, but if you want to use that as some form of mitigation for our crapness, on you go.

Right you are.

[Spike Mandela]

Just looked at stats for Aberdeen v Celtic game. Aberdeen had 2 shots at home versus 33 for Celtic. 33 jeez.

Aberdeen must have been terrible and Celtic's conversion rate was worse than ours.

We have Nisbet, he scored a cracking goal v the rangers on Thursday night, did you miss it ?

Naw, I didn’t miss it as I was at the game.

With the exception of Marshall, Nisbet Campbell and Porteous I did see a “team” of imposters in that second half that shouldn’t be near Hibs jerseys, a good number all signed on the watch of an absent owner whose laddie is head of recruitment, but according to another poster on another thread “has very little to do with transfers”.

They sign the right players in key positions. We don’t because a) we don’t spend even a tenth out compared to what we bring in and b) it’s becoming increasingly apparent we’re ran as some kind of experimental football club based on some sort of draft system of bringing in rookies that no one has ever heard of in the hope that one of them comes good and will be sold on for big bucks thus proving the transfer “policy” is right all along.

[Bridge hibs]

How many years ago now was it we signed Nisbet? Should we just stop signing proven players cos we signed him about 3 years ago?What are you on about ? Where did I suggest we stop signing proven goalscorers ? 🤣

We have Nisbet and he looked very sharp against the rangers, Im sure with the right service he will bang a few in, oh and I think he is better than Shankland too 👍

He's only had one good season with us though....before he got injured last season he was dugmeat, hopefully this is the start of a fresh new Nisbet that puts the ball in the net more often.

A poster said our recruitment team should sign a proven goalscorer, you then responded with what about Nisbet.

Nisbet signed 2.5 years ago, probably scouted originally 3 years ago, it wasn't even the same recruitment team in place.

I dont disagree our recruitment has been shambolic to say the least and I would hope, as many do that we sign better in January. I hope Nisbet can kick on from Thursday, hopefully McKirdy gets more game time too

Watching Hearts there is nothing special there but stuff that makes a real difference.

Defenders take one or two touches before getting it forward.

Enables the forwards to get the ball early and in space.

Quality in the final third.

Play at an intensity with overlapping runs and runs beyond the striker.

Hard workers in there team who are street smart.

It really is the basics of Scottish football

Agree it’s not easy which is why it is rarely done but the money hearts are making from Europe will only help them solidify 3rd for a little while. We don’t even come close season after 3rd. We fall off a cliff

[Sir David Gray]

I'm actually torn on what I would have preferred in that match to be honest.

Ross County winning would have put them just 2 points below us and just 3 points above 10th but would have kept us within one win of St Johnstone.

With St Johnstone winning it gives us quite a bit of breathing space towards the bottom of the league but puts us in a bit of bother in trying to get back into contention for a European place.

In the nicest possible way and without trying to be negative, I don't think we'll be looking at qualifying for Europe this season or possibly next.

We need to focus on getting the footballing department and recruitment running properly and efficiently first before dreaming of anything grander. We're a bloated shambles and it's a miracle we're not already in a relegation dogfight.

Last season , without terrible run of injuries in second half of season , we`d have comfortably made top 5 and maybe top 3 and could even have won cup .

Appreciate you are trying to be positive but we are not getting top 5 this season. As Northern has said, europe is off the cards for us this season and possibly next. I am struggling to remember a club falling this far this fast. We are rudderless with a huge squad of players who are largely not good enough. It’s going to take until at least the end of the summer window to get fairy decent squad we can build on.

Suppose Martin Boyle is also walking with crutches at the moment and he's out for at least the next 6 months.

Any idea what Tait's done?

[Trinity Hibee]

So we aren't getting Europe this season or next dear oh dear so many games to play.

Jim, nobody is mathematically out of europe of course but surely after what you’ve seen watching Hibs we can agree that we are so far off a euro spot. Hearts and Aberdeen will pull away now the season is settling down. We’ve all seen this movie too many times before

It’s like Killie also thinking they have a shot at Europe. Hearts Aberdeen and livi are all ahead of us at the moment.

[Key West]

So we aren't getting Europe this season or next dear oh dear so many games to play.

A lot of the things would have to change Jim to convince me that Europe is realistic, we've lost Boyle and could be on the verge of losing Porteous, we would have to rely on the fitness of Nisbet Magennis and McGeady and a return to form of the likes of Henderson,Hanlon and Doyle-Hayes plus some decent recruitment's in January, it's not impossible but highly unlikely in my opinion.

[Ronniekirk]

January tends to be a more difficult time to get decent players in

It does that’s why I said European football is out of this teams reach and the couple of key players are probably needed to stop us getting dragged into Relegation battle
