Hibernian v St Johnstone (VAR launch)

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Tonight sees the Hibees continue their legacy of ‘first club in Scotland to…’ with the launch of VAR at Easter Road.

We’re just over a couple of hours from kick off and the club have asked to arrive by 7:15 to catch the pre match show.

Grant Brebner will be handing over the match ball too.

Team news will be up in around an hour.

Keep it here for updates.

M’on the Hibees :flag:

[Keith_M]

Heading through now and looking forward to it.

Be nice to finally see our strikers get a few goals. Fingers crossed

[Up-the-slope]

just eaten my pre-match beef stew.... and heading into city in 10... looking forward to it and a nice evening (compared to monsoon this time yesterday) no excuse weather wise and looking for a positive reaction to managers criticisms that show who he can rely on in coming months. if you cant turn it on in front of a full home crowd under the lights you shouldn't be at the club

[weecounty hibby]

Early finish Friday, train through with my laddie and a hibs pal. Been in the pub for a while already. Really looking forward to this. Excitement building!!

[Pretty Boy]

With Clancy and Collum in the hot seat we should get our moneys worth tonight. FT some time around about midnight.

[HendoDelivered]

Busy around ER atm. Shop looks rammed!

[Wull]

I’m just in fi the golf, an although I’m 6000 miles away my stomach is still churning, Cummon Hibs do the business :hibees

More or less the same. 3.30 train and in the pub for 4.30

Busy and nice atmosphere building.

Got a feeling they will use VAR tonight just for the sake of it to show folk Scotland is now using it.

[WhileTheChief..]

Looking forward to this.

Last game I remember with a full house at ER for an evening kick off was the Natural Order game.

Another result and atmosphere like that would be lovely.

[Irish_Steve]

It’s bloody busy in and around the ground and all the subsequent side streets

[coco22]

At home with Covid…tickets given to a very appreciative wee family. Hopefully watching on the couch (with a wee beer in hand!!! 💚🍻 GGTTH

[GreenCastle]

Wonder how many ex Hibs players will play ?

Hallberg
Murphy
Wright
Wotherspoon
Booth (injured)

Saints lost last 3..all by a single goal and nearly drew with Celtic.

[Callum_62]

Why is this on tonight and not on TV?

Pity about tonight, Coco. Nice gesture …… hope your rewarded with a convincing performance and win, tonight. :hibees

Why is this on tonight and not on TV?

Because Hibs are experimenting with a Friday evening game.

[GreenCastle]

What I meant was for an incident that doesn’t need it usually.

Let’s wait and see! Just hopefully it’s helpful for Hibs (probably Boyle being fouled !!)

[Sir David Gray]

Why is this on tonight and not on TV?

Hibs decided to have this game with cheaper tickets and wanted it as a night game.

I suspect Hearts being at home to Celtic tomorrow may have had something to do with it too.

Magennis starts.

[hibsbollah]

Tough on Youan. Do we think Campbell plays in advance of Magennis or alongside?

[SteveHFC]

https://twitter.com/HibernianFC/status/1583507154182479872

Magennis starts.

Can see Melkersen going on loan in Januray.

[easty]

Looks like a back 5 then. 5-3-2

[Jones28]

Rocky starts! Fantastic!

[makaveli1875]

Good to see Rocky and Magennis back , bench looks strong too .

[Unseen work]

Interesting line up.

Unsure how I feel about a 352 against St Johnstone with Cabraja and Cadden as wing backs.

Think that formation could suit them.

Hopefully the Boyle and Kukharevch combination works!

Magennis and Rocky both done well on Saturday and were the positives so glad to see them start

[Stairway 2 7]

Class team. 3 nil hibs

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Looks like a back 5 then. 5-3-2

I’d say more 3-5-2

[cameronw-hfc]

I’d say more 3-5-2

A 352 is a 532 in defence, and 352 going forward. It's basically the same formation. A bit like a 433 is just a 451 defensively, most of the time anyway.

[WhileTheChief..]

Was hoping for a different front 2.

Maybe it will work this time.

[Mikey_1875]

Can’t argue with the personnel changes but not so keen on the formation change. Either way the team is good enough to get the job done and hopefully a great night ahead.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Perhaps tactical for St J

[easty]

I’d say more 3-5-2

Doesnae really matter either way. The left and right wing backs are the usual full backs though.

Reckon this should give Cadden and Cabraja more opportunity to get up the park. I like it.

[Unseen work]

Really hope we batter them tonight. Massive crowd, game under the lights and a lot of eyes on it with VAR being introduced.

One of the reasons I want us to be a couple of goals to the good too is to introduce some guys like Jair etc that have had many minutes to a positive atmosphere where he can make a mistake and not get crucified for it

[Aldo]

Big call from LJ this evening but really good to see Rocky and Magennis starting!

See how St J cope with Boylers pace through the middle

Strong starting 11 and strong bench.

6 mins until ko and still a 2nd set of goals down at the south, can we use either to score in ? :greengrin




awk they're moving them now, only one set of goals will limit our chances of scoring now :)

Thing is would they overturn the refs decision for their 1st VAR decision ?
Not sure....
I thought the ref got his card out far too quickly....he should have reviewed VAR and then decided.
Personally I thought it was worthy of a warning as he had to evade the laddies leg.

Would we want an opposing player to get a card for the same incident???

The fact there is a difference of opinion on this thread shows VAR just won't be clear cut ever.

I never said anyone should get a card, I said there was enough "contact" to merit boyles evasive action...therefore a warning.
So to answer your question, I'd say the ref should have warned him...same if a saints player did that when there was close enough contact.

All I was asking was, on this forum every team has a diver for fouls, are we any different?

porteous fk punt actually goes straight out

Don't like this 3 at the back, far too many passes left and right and too many back passes, apart from some bright sharp passing earlier, it's all a bit boring

[CallumHibs07]

Garbage so far

[Phil MaGlass]

We started off well but final third is brutal again

[Unseen work]

Game is going how I feared with having Cabraja and Cadden at wing backs.

Coming too deep and end up playing in our own half

Absolutely criminal we had no runners for that wee cross from cadden.

He’s everything that Campbell isn’t. The contrast is unreal.

Or looking at it from another angle. You get to celebrate the same goal twice😉

[Pretty Boy]

The issue with VAR is that unlike in other sports the fans have no real idea what the ref is looking at. In rugby, cricket, NFL etc the fans can interact a bit with the decision making process. In football we get a delay of the game then a message announcing the decision with fans in the stadium having no idea what has actually been looked at.

Cadden, Campbell and Rocky all impressed me so far.

Also in rugby you can hear why the ref is giving a decision as well as reminding players of infringing play!!!

Big Kyle is like a new signing, once he gets up to full speed and hopefully keeps fit, we have a real player on our hands. :thumbsup:

[Northernhibee]

Gets to so many loose balls and helps keep possession. Midfield balance overall has been good.

[shamo9]

Cadden has been great so far. Majority of our attacking play is coming from him.

[SHODAN]

Delighted for Kuharevich, his performances up until now have merited a goal.

[Unseen work]

Magennis looks good, just need to get him on the ball more

Right hand side looks good and the main threat however seem to run out of ideas at a point and just whip crosses in - clearly worked for the goal though.

Not much down the left at all, balance is a bit off imo as Cabraja is more of a left back for me.

Think we’re better suited/more fluid in a 433/451 but can’t complain!

Plenty more goals in this game for us

[makaveli1875]

Cadden, Campbell and Rocky all impressed me so far.

Plus you are left during the game wondering where and when the foul took place.
Put it on the big screens to show the incident at least we can riot if we think its the wrong decision!!!!

He was spot on.

I really like trying new things but you have to 'get' a football crowd. A minority might enjoy opera or a violinist (in a football setting, I like lots of different things away from ER) but most just want a song you can join in with and a boy giving it GaiRFUY to Hearts fans.

Defence having nothing to do and cadden putting in multiple good crosses shows the manager got formation right imo. Some header for the goal

St J have been so anti football this evening which is what I expected. McGowan has done nothing but drop to the floor and moan.

They are going to do everything to try and get Kuh and or Boyle a second yellow!

I also think we need a second to steady our nerves as St J will get a chance at some point

Dearie me. :doh:

That’s never a booking for Magennis.

[hibsbollah]

Cadden is outstanding tonight.

[Callum_62]

Ridiculously harsh booking for Magennis there

it maybe wasn't intended but why did magennis not stop his run there, he was never getting the ball what a needless foul that may or may not have deserved a yellow card

[Phil MaGlass]

Keep the baw oan the deck Hibs.

[Phil MaGlass]

Caddens havin a great game

[cabbageandribs1875]

[Callum_62]

Surprised var never looked at that tackle on Boyle

We need to move it quicker and drive forward more. Doing ok though!

[Coach Jon]

We have dropped a level this half, allowing St. Johnstone more time and space, although we are still dangerous on the break.

Celtic and the Rangers would have got a pen for it....

Aye this, thought exact same

[Callum_62]

Be surpised if Magennis lasts too much longer

He can be happy with his first start though, you can see his quality already

St Johnstone have opened up a bit and Hibs are now starting to create more chances.

It has been for about 3 years.

[Sir David Gray]

Magennis sent off for 2 yellows.

[easty]

Stupid

[SHODAN]

Idiot.

[Ryan91]

Stupid challenge by Magennis when he's on a yellow

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

****in idiot!

[Heisenberg]

In no real danger in the game and he does that. Very stupid.

[Pretty Boy]

WTF is Magennis thinking there? And why is he getting applauded off the park. Needless foul has left us right up against it. Idiocy from him.

[Callum_62]

Magennis sent off for 2 yellows.Can't argue with his 2nd but his first yellow was a joke

Absolutely stupid

[where'stheslope]

4 booking in a game we should be scooching, just to many rash challenges making it easy for the ref.

[cabbageandribs1875]

clumsy again by magennis


so freakin needless

two ridiculous challenges from him

[CmoantheHibs]

Stupidity from Magennis really really stupid

[HH81]

Up against it now.

Had feeling would be a red against us tonight!

[Unseen work]

Stupid stupid tackle from Magennis

[007]

Our turn to go down to 10 men. Let's see how we handle it.

[Northernhibee]

Spends most of his Hibs career injured and when he gets his chance to show what he can do he does that. Idiot.

[silverhibee]

That was stupid.

[coco22]

Shd have been subbed 5 mins before…off the pace! Stupid tackle

[CallumHibs07]

Brainless ****

[J-C]

Nae need, middle of the park with zero danger, just stupid.

Cheers Kyle.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

VAR should disallow that

[Jones28]

What a tit. Honestly, imagine doing that on your first start back? Needless.

[Pretty Boy]

1-1. Inevitable.

We have been really poor tonight. It's easy to criticise when we are losing and praise when we are winning but tonight we were ahead but huffing and puffing, we have played a million times better and dropped points.

Change or shape hasn't worked and it's been scrappy and laboured.

[where'stheslope]

VAR has to overturn that goal please!!!!

[Phil MaGlass]

Ffs, absolutely f.n stupid, thought it wid huv been the other boy but 10 men we can still win this 2-0

[Jones28]

Goal saints.

[HendoDelivered]

Embarrassing

[Phil MaGlass]

Ffs

[cabbageandribs1875]

1-1


advantage st johnstone

[supermcginn]

Magennis is a complete and utter idiot. Total waste of money.

[neil7908]

That 4 match winning run feels like a long time ago now.

[Aldo]

Silly from Kyle.

Wishing we had taken a couple of the earlier chances now! Massive 20 minutes coming up

Porto gas to be stronger there

[Jim44]

5 yellows and a red card for a team that’s on top of a game is shocking.
