2022-23 season non-Hibs games thread

[Bridge hibs]

Still wish we’d managed to keep Ambrose.

Really ? He was awful today, he cant even run anymore 🤣

[HoboHarry]

Sportsound savaging Scottish officials for their use of VAR - even though it favoured Celtic today. All VAR has done up here is highlight just how bad our refs are - something we've all known for decades but was easily hushed up as there was little forensic scrutiny of incidents or decisions. VAR has changed that.

Refs bringing the game into disrepute up here :cb

The entire governing body has brought the game into disrepute for decades.

I love Scottish football but this year in particular I lost most of my enthusiasm for the game mainly due to decision's that have been given and not , certain referee's getting games they shouldn't be anywhere near and just feel it's getting destroyed by blatant cheating and corruption.

I’m actually quite surprised how much VAR has scunnered me with it. Prior to VAR coming in I was quite forgiving of Scottish football’s imperfections and I’m not bad at coming to terms with the “they even themselves out eventually” mindset.

With VAR - I was, and still am, in favour of it. It should be a force for good and help correct some of the poorer decisions. It has worked well at the big international tournaments and you can still see individual instances where wrongs are righted with it. I also think it’s important to allow (to an extent) for the subjective nature of what constitutes a foul. Where a robust debate can be had about a decision then the fact that it was given one way or the other can be justifiable.

Problem is, what we’ve got is simply farcical, especially in relation to the handball decisions and it’s actually detracting from the legitimacy of the competitions imo.

It’s not something that shouldn’t be salvageable but it’s hard to have faith in the Scottish authorities (and wider football authorities) to fix it.

With handball, there is a specific problem. They have forgotten why the law was made in the first place. It was to stop cynical attempts to block shots or passes of the ball with the player's hand. They need to bring back the deliberate ruling. Get the ref to assess. If he thinks its not deliberate, no foul.

VAR is another situation entirely, and its to do with selective application. And thats never going to change while the media is being so ****ing mealy mouthed about it. When you point out the obvious you are called a conspiracy theorist, but its corrupt. At least the Italians admit their problem now! We've got our heads in the sand. Two clubs with ten times everyone elses budget AND who get all the decisions. I love Hibs but whats the ****ing point.

He was and is a better prospect than Tavarez, only managed to catch a few of his appearances, but from what i saw he had better potential than most of the dross we brought in last summer.

I have no idea if we will regret it but he looks miles ahead of Tavares and Henderson to me. Yes it is against Stennie but one goal was a great free kick and the other a composed finish. He is also a pretty big lad and he seems to have that little bit about him as he was having a joke with Stennie players and looked very comfortable playing for a team above us in the league. He did so well in a cameo appearance for us it is bizarre that he has hardly had another kick.

Bradley should have been added to our 1st team squad after his succesfull return from Ireland. To allow him to just leave was ludicrous. I really despair what our recruitment team think. Utterly bizarre behaviour.

[Donegal Hibby]

On skysports today they spoke about Everton and how there next two games was arsenal, Liverpool and would there be any point in sacking lampard with them two games coming ? Everton's situation can be turned around yet though is it a case of sticking with the manager or replacing him with two games it's hard to see them getting any points from anyhow?

I hope Everton stay up, it's a great club, but it looks very grim now. It's so sad to see a club of their stature and history being run into the ground. Their fans deserve so much more.

I hope they stay up as well , always liked Everton and think of them as a proper premier League club with a great history and fans . It seems they have been badly run for awhile now . Big decision to make this week wither to sack or back lampard , if they back him hopefully they can sign a few players , all is not lost yet but as you say it does look grim for them at the present.

[cameronw-hfc]

It's a wonder Chelsea or man United don't look to buy him as both have dodgy keepers

He's said a few time he's going nowhere. When he came back from the copa America there were Atletico rumours and Milan rumours and he squashed them by signing a new 5-year deal. Not holding my breath yet but seems to be one of the few footballers with a bit of loyalty.

Think he said something along the lines of "Villa is a big club mate. I want to win trophies here". The "villa is a big club mate" has become a meme within the villa fans as he's git a funny English accent when he speaks. Obviously I'm biased as a Villa man but would he different class to see him show loyalty and stay at the club.

He gets treated like a God down Villa way as well, absolutely adored by the fans and has been for some time now, got to have a huge impact I think. Besides Jacob Ramsay he's the fans favourite player by some margin atm. Him and JJ are adored.

I've always had a lot of time for Everton, I too see them as a historical football club with good values and you do naturally want them to stay up but then I think what's the point of just staying up to just exist as an EPL club, a season in the Championship going to new grounds, being the biggest draw in the League and probably winning more games than you have in years isn't the worst outcome IMO.

My mate's a Newcastle fan and two if his favourite seasons since Bobby Robson's era was the years they were in the Championship, I can relate as we too had our spell down there and 2014-15 was exciting as hell, that being said by the time we got promoted it was at least a year too long though.

I just think the Toffees would embrace that.

I wouldn't have been against Bradley staying to see what he could do but he didn't do that well in Ireland.

32 games scoring 6 goals and no assists, barely played 90 minutes. Either subbed on or subbed off.

With a decent bit of coaching he can probably make a good enough career in Scotland.

Not last season, they weren't no. They were really good last season, but were undone by injury and some loss of form. Had their fullbacks and Partey stayed fit, they'd have got top 4.

The season before they were dreadful and fans were calling for his head. They changed that model, stopped signing old rubbish like Willian and Luiz and went for younger, hungrier players.

[Mibbes Aye]

One saving grace from today. A big, big win for Arsenal in many ways. Good cameo from Trossard at the end for them too - there was an interesting write-up on F365 about Arsenal signing him after missing out on Mudryk. Essentially they made the case that in most windows, especially summer ones, Arsenal can pick up a player with Mudryk's potential, but at this stage of the season an experienced Prem-ready rotation player like Trossard might, counter-intuitively, suit them just as much.

Excellent game in and of itself, too. It used to be fashionable a few years ago to slate EPL games for being sterile and saccharin. This wasn't such a game, it was a proper heavyweight bout, going the whole fifteen rounds.

I agree with this. It's so refreshing to see a good, entertaining young Arsenal team that play football the way most of us like to watch. IMO they've still got a wee way to go before they match The Invincibles, but they're definitely heading in the right direction. Great team to watch.

The other thing about Trossard is, he was so, so much cheaper. That has given them the chance to sign this defender from Italy and try to bring in another midfielder for 6 months before a big effort for Rice in the summer it seems. IF they get good cover for Partey this window, they've got every chance of winning the league. If not, I still think City will pip them.

If Goodwin survives until Saturday, both managers will be under huge pressure not to lose.

Aberdeen beating us at ER after being skelped by Hearts would be horrendous, and from their point of view, losing to a Hibs team on such a rotten run, likewise.

0-0 on the cards?!

[Scorrie]

Lee Johnson - Out

Whoever the Darvel manager is - In

Mick Kennedy. Managed Colville in the amateurs for a while. Darvel have spent big in recent seasons to get up the pyramid

It’s a managerial play off. Looser gets sacked, winner subjects their team to more months of ****.

El Sackico as someone on here called it!

[GreenCastle]

Darvel dugouts on opposite sides of the pitch ?! Odd

[Up-the-slope]

Ex Hibbie Ross Caldwell playing 20? in CM?

[H18 SFR]

Darvel dugouts on opposite sides of the pitch ?! Odd

Two 4th officials?

:faf: :top marks

[Ronniekirk]

Great Effort from Darvel but they won’t be able to keep it up in second half unless they can somehow go 2 up

[Sylar]

Liam Scales really is a dreadful excuse for a footballer.

[HarpOnHibee]

Diving against plumbers and college students :no way:

[cabbageandribs1875]

Fulham 0 Spurs 1 45+1 mins, kane of course

[Johnny_Leith]

Ex Hibbie Ross Caldwell playing 20? in CM?

Yeah that's Ross.

[Up-the-slope]

the supposed gap between Darvel & Dons is not very obvious

[cabbageandribs1875]

Aberdeen fans need to stop booing and just enjoy the game/occasion

[Up-the-slope]

Yeah that's Ross.
Good to see him playing - had no idea where he had ended up

[JamesHFC]

That goal against Hearts is one of my favourite Derby goals.

I'm sure that's what we'd be doing right enough :greengrin

[EGL2000]

That offside decision is baffling, you really do sometimes wonder.

[JimBHibees]

How bad was that offside decision? Horrific officiating

[GlesgaeHibby]

Some offside call that hahahaha giruy Goodwin

[cabbageandribs1875]

🤣


I'm sure that's what we'd be doing right enough :greengrin


forgot to add a smiley :wink:

[MWHIBBIES]

I mean, Aberdeen are gash but they've just scored a perfectly good goal. Linesman should find himself a new job.

[JimBHibees]

That offside decision is baffling, you really do sometimes wonder.

Looked bent it was so bad

[Silky]

Aberdeen fans need to stop booing and just enjoy the game/occasion

I wonder if Hibs fans should do that too!

[Tyler Durden]

Incredible stuff from that linesman. Sort of call that makes you suspect something corrupt rather than normal incompetence

[cameronw-hfc]

Darvel right back having an all time shocker last 5 minutes here and Aberdeen still can't get back in 😂

[JamesHFC]

Absolutely no surprise. Abysmal officials in this country, embarrassment to the Scottish game.

[Up-the-slope]

Aberdeen fans need to stop booing and just enjoy the game/occasion
:tee hee:

[cabbageandribs1875]

I wonder if Hibs fans should do that too!


well my friends and i enjoyed our wee trips to Ayr, Alloa, coodenbeath and Falkirk etc :whistle:

[Up-the-slope]

all of a sudden clock has just run down....

[Up-the-slope]

cant believe how poor Dons look... even at his age Jonny Hayes is only player I would have in Hibs team

[Silky]

Aberdeen fans need to stop booing and just enjoy the game/occasion

Maybe Hibs fans should try that too!

[Glory Lurker]

Darvel fans must be sick with nerves just now

[Up-the-slope]

Darvel fans must be sick with nerves just now

Not as Sick as Jim Goodwin looks.... how long is that bus journey back to Aberdeen:greengrin

[overdrive]

Not as Sick as Jim Goodwin looks.... how long is that bus journey back to Aberdeen:greengrin

He won’t care. He will have the car with him. Allegedly

[B.H.F.C]

The number 19 for Darvel has been superb. Proper quality on the ball.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Not as Sick as Jim Goodwin looks.... how long is that bus journey back to Aberdeen:greengrin


169 miles, 3 hours 10 mins

[McGruber]

Darvel winning here all but seals a Dons win at Easter Road this weekend - nap

[Up-the-slope]

Was that Aberdeen chairman dictating press release there:greengrin

[Onion]

INCREDIBLE. Goodwin is gone.

[Ronniekirk]

How many minutes have been added on

oh my :faf:

[SteveHFC]

Bye bye goodwin

[cabbageandribs1875]

Darvel winning here all but seals a Dons win at Easter Road this weekend - nap


i've already thought about that but for the moment i'm enjoying this :greengrin

[JamesHFC]

That is an horrendous result. I think they will give him the Hibs game though.

[Pretty Boy]

Wow.

I was slagging my mate for sticking a tenner on Darvel at 11s. Wish I'd joined him.

[SHODAN]

That is unbelievable.

[Heisenberg]

That is very, very funny.

[BILLYHIBS]

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

Every cloud has a silver lining

Goodwin must stay

Noticed Ross Caldwell plays for Darvel

[Up-the-slope]

LJ can enjoy not being the most under pressure SPL manager tonight

[Seekyit]

Wow. That is one big shock.

[Onion]

Thing is Darvel thoroughly deserved it. No fluke, the Dons are rank rotten.

It's a race to the bottom between Dons and Hibs.

[Pretty Boy]

Fair play to Joe Lewis going to the Aberdeen fans after that. Would have been easy just to walk off but he fronted it up.

[erin go bragh]

Aberdeen are lucky that Hearts still hold the biggest upset in the Scottish cup when they were pumped out with Bora Rangers but it’s pretty close to it. Girfuy Goodwin.

[Irish_Steve]

Get that up ye, Goodwin

[CmoantheHibs]

Aberdeen are absolutely honking. Looks like we are playing a managerless club.

[MWHIBBIES]

3 points on Saturday Lee or you've really got to go.

[Onion]

That is an horrendous result. I think they will give him the Hibs game though.

Not a hope of that. He's gone before the bus sets off home.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Surely that's worthy of instant dismissal. It has to be the worst result in their history. I'd honestly never heard of Darvel.

[OstKurve Hibs]

Wow.

I was slagging my mate for sticking a tenner on Darvel at 11s. Wish I'd joined him.

Thought it masel n left it lol !

Cheer up goodwin ya pleb

[flash]

That's a million times worse than anything we have produced.

[GlesgaeHibby]

Aberdeen are lucky that Hearts still hold the biggest upset in the Scottish cup when they were pumped out with Bora Rangers but it’s pretty close to it. Girfuy Goodwin.

That's a bigger upset than losing to Brora

[HoboHarry]

FFS and we think we have problems lol

[Pretty Boy]

Aberdeen are lucky that Hearts still hold the biggest upset in the Scottish cup when they were pumped out with Bora Rangers but it’s pretty close to it. Girfuy Goodwin.

This is a bigger upset than Hearts v Brora.

Darvel are a level below Brora and Aberdeen a level above Hearts.

[HendoDelivered]

Stuck £8 on darvel last night at 28/1 💰

[OstKurve Hibs]

Surely that's worthy of instant dismissal. It has to be the worst result in their history. I'd honestly never heard of Darvel.

Good point that, had never heard of them at all lol

[weecounty hibby]

Hahahahaha, I dont feel quite as bad about Hibs now. GIRFUY Goodwin and the rest if the flock

[Jim44]

After Goodwin’s treatment of Porteous, I am delighted at that result and what it means for him.

[JimBHibees]

Fair play to Joe Lewis going to the Aberdeen fans after that. Would have been easy just to walk off but he fronted it up.

The fans were miles away from him right enough :greengrin

[Up-the-slope]

169 miles, 3 hours 10 mins

It will feel far longer than that...:hmmm:

[supermcginn]

That is an horrendous result. I think they will give him the Hibs game though.

Not a chance. One of the biggest upsets in football history, not just Scotland.

[LunasBoots]

Doubt Goodwin will be here for our game against them, looked like he knew he was gone.

[Hibernia&Alba]

Good point that, had never heard of them at all lol

Aye. No top flight manager should survive such a result; it's an unthinkable defeat.

[Mcbizz1998]

A managerless Aberdeen at the weekend then.

Hilarious result [emoji23]

[davy67 +]

Must be embarrassing for Darvel to only score one against that shower

[Nakedmanoncrack]

A genuine shocker, utterly scandalous result for the sheep.

[SteveHFC]

Surely that's worthy of instant dismissal. It has to be the worst result in their history. I'd honestly never heard of Darvel.

Probably the biggest upset in SC history

[Irish_Steve]

Ha ha - hilarious, the Darvel goal scorer saying he may phone in sick tomorrow lol

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

Martindale next sheep manager? 🤔

[cabbageandribs1875]

Darvel manager looks like Jim Goodwin

[Onion]

Population of Darvel = 3,930 humans and 3 dugs.

[wookie70]

They survived a few scares but looked as good a team as Aberdeen. Moved the ball well, played as a team and expertly saw out the last 5 minutes. No chance Goodwin survives that, which isn't great for us

[Lago]

Goodwin, sacked in the morning ? Not sure he'll survive to 2nd half.
Was he not put forward by some, for the Hibs job before L. J was appointed, could be available soon 😂

[Hibernia&Alba]

Probably the biggest upset in SC history

Has to be. It's worse than lot losing to Brora, or Motherwell losing to Albion Rovers.

[Callum_62]

If you've ever driven through Darvel you'll have noticed that they aren't all human!
