Hearts v Hibernian, winner takes all match updates

[Nakedmanoncrack]

How much injury time?

9 mins

[Iain G]

Campbell, Mckirdy, delf, hendo, cabraja and hendo? Have we broke a rule? 6 subs

Surely the 4th official would be able to count? Unless one is a concussion sub or something?

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Campbell, Mckirdy, delf, hendo, cabraja and hendo? Have we broke a rule? 6 subs

One must have been for a concussion substitution

[Hibs90]

We’ve been utter pony today

That teams all over the place

Managers fault. This isn't good enough. This in the context of the game was a HUGE opportunity and it's been and gone it seems and Hibs just going out in a limp.

[Stuart93]

**** off Cabraja honestly ****ing *****

[cameronw-hfc]

Hendo twice in your list

Meant devlin

[overdrive]

Who?

For hearts (Haring). We get an extra sub as a result.

[Stuart93]

How comfortable are hearts here

[Torto7]

It's too easy to time waste in football.

[TheCabbage]

Absolutely terrible second half
Subs have contributed heehaw

[Iain G]

Whether Hibs score in the remaining minutes,they are utterly ****in clueless and it all stems from that prick in the dugout

Players need to take responsibility for playing push and making bad decisions.

[lyonhibs]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

[Greenio]

Team and formation so out of whack.

Just need that one piece of class

[Stuart93]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

Na, we were never winning this

[NC1875]

Pathetic performance.

If the shoe was on the other foot, we’d be dead and buried by now.

Weak loser mentality from too many players

[Since452]

At least we can stop pretending McKirdy or Henderson will ever contribute anything

[EdinMike]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

Nope ! I called it when they went 1-0 up…

[jeffers]

I’m sure Newell’s stats for 2nd half passing will look great but wtf is he doing playing in front of the back four when he should be seizing the game by the scruff of the neck.

[Iain G]

Nope ! I called it when they went 1-0 up…

Well done you! You win a prize am sure

[Joe6-2]

Players need to take responsibility for playing push and making bad decisions.

This, professional players, paid well, but absolutely clueless

[Northernhibee]

Just shows how bad McKirdy is that we have Mikey Devlin up top.

[DaveHFC]

Hopeless last ten minutes

[Onion]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

Not in the least. If we'd been offered 45 mins at the end of the season against 10 men Hearts to leapfrog them and steal the Euro place. You cannot ask for a better opportunity, expect if you're Hibs.

[Keith_M]

Enforced substitutions have killed us today, as we just don't have the quality on the bench.


This goes down as the fault of recruitment.

[cabbageandribs1875]

one of our subs subbed, nuff said

[Stuart93]

Hopeless last ten minutes

Last ten minutes??

[Jones28]

This is ****ing torture. Players have chucked it.

[Del Boy]

Ffs Hibs

[Brightside]

A terrible second half of football. Our setup has been mental.

[Iain G]

Why didn't we bring Hoppe on?

[cameronw-hfc]

Why didn't we bring Hoppe on?

He's awful would be my guess

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

Cabraja goes into the crowd

[Stuart93]

Any team with ten men are usually holding on at the end. Hearts are chilling

[Torto7]

Losers. That's the truth of it.

[cabbageandribs1875]

they freakin heartz gimps

[Pagan Hibernia]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

not in the slightest.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

That was the last chance their, McKirdy chance high over the top

[Iain G]

He's awful would be my guess

He has at least scored a goal for us, unlike the forward we did bring on

[cabbageandribs1875]

say yer goodbyes at the end Mckirdy

[Greenio]

That was McKirdys chance

****ed it

[madhatter]

Get the wasters in our squad out. What a drop of in quality with these players...

[Stuart93]

Utter ****ing guff

[Hibs90]

Get McKirdy so far to ****. Utterly abysmal footballer.

[Keith_M]

That was McKirdys chance

****ed it


So much for my 97th minute winner prediction...

[CMac1988]

Is anyone surprised we've made a pigs arse of this?

Nope. Didn't expect to win before the game started. The red gave us a chance. Don't have the quality when it matters. The players coming on have contributed next to nothing all season. Isn't going to change now.

[overdrive]

McKirdy should be shown the door

[Chip shop Joe]

Ducking amateur hour this!!!!!

[Stuart93]

Cabraja is a ****ing awful footballer get him to ****

[e2los]

Crap...

Would have taken the draw tbh before the game.

Big chance lost.

[Hibby Kay-Yay]

[jeffers]

Absolutely pathetic. Massive rebuilding job this summer to clear out all the utter dross and a massive change in mentality or it will be more of the same next season.

[Callum_62]

Pretty much since all the injuries and subs we looked so naive

Which isn't surprising really as we are short a squad

We also (as I expected) looked shattered with 15 to go

Still a massively frustrating watch with us playing daft 40 yard passes instead of playing through the lines

A poster on here reckons he's the best player in the squad, genuinely frightening. He's so poor.

[HarpOnHibee]

Well, we've basically handed them 4th place there. Not a clue what we were doing the whole game. Who was the English lad on the commentary? The first person we've had on in years who actually know's what they're talking about.

Well that was pish. Let’s never speak of this season again.

Sack him. Changes that needed to be made were obvious, but he sends out his wee experiment at half time. 5th and garbage in the cup is a sacking.

We can put out an ok-ish 11 but as soon as you dip into the squad you turn up nothing but dross.

Should have won. Battered them again today. It wasn't a defeat though and once Celtic win the cup it means an extra away day for us in Europe.

Fell just short on the day.

Can't really slate the team too much. Injuries played a massive part. Players out of position, against a flat 6. Not normal. Keeper played a blinder too.

5th this year....8th last. If you want progress, than this is what is looks like

Let's hope Celtic do what they should and we get European football. (Not that I think 5th place should get it)

[TheCabbage]

Henderson. Mckirdy. Cabraja. All done
Questions about campbell today. No composure on the ball

WTF is Newell doing there?

This is ****ing brainless, idiotic football.

Lack of footballing IQ

[Stuart93]

At least we can stop pretending that McKirdy will come good, try punt him back down south

[cad]

Players need to take responsibility for playing push and making bad decisions.

But they have to have a game plan Ian he`s sent them out after half time and at least 4 of them dont have a clue what they are supposed to be doing .
How can so many players get it wrong again and again and again theres no logic to it they dont have a clue where to press and how to use the one man advantage its farcical, if thats whats passing as a professional footballer at ER gawd help us gee gods the SPL is bad enough but surely professionalism has a standard FFS Hanlons and others have launched the ball since half time to no **** ,how do you train for that , where else in the UK do teams play against 10 men and make it ****in easier for them, thats why the prick in the dug outs accountable

He was injured. Has been for weeks, won't hold this against him given he more than likely had injections yet again just to play.

[Stevie Reid]

Injuries really hampered us. Were playing very well and creating so much at the end of the first half.

JDH, Miller and Cadden were huge losses, and really broke up the good rhythm that we had.

Sorry but sick of seeing the same old ***** on here, this is Johnson’s team, his signings and they were woeful. Lucky to be in the top 6, served up the easiest of opportunities today and we came nowhere near it, against a very poor 10 men Hearts side. If you think Johnson can take this club forward you’ve not got a clue. He’s nowhere near the level of manager we need to push us back where we belong. Time for him to go, get someone decent in and it’s a rebuild in the summer again. Best to act now than wait till it’s gone 8-9 games into next season

He was pretty spot on though. Needed to be braver on the ball no composure. Strange having McKirdy central dropping deep for the ball. Hugely frustrating. Launching long balls Hanlon and Devlin up front really. Too many subs. Appreciate the loss of Doyle Hayes and Cadden was big.

[neil7908]

At least we can stop pretending that McKirdy will come good, try punt him back down south

About 12 or 13 of that match day squad could never play for Hibs again and I wouldn't be fussed.

We have some rebuilding job coming up.

Should be looking to bring in around 10 players.

[raeburnhibs]

Thought Youan was Hearts best player

The daft reactionaries are back I see

[high bee]

As raging as I am, we lost a lot when JDH went off and the game was over as soon as Cadden went off. Campbell was poor from the off then really struggled out wide, looked so uncomfortable. Bringing Cabraja on ruined the left hand side too which meant we lost all our width.

We still should’ve won that game but when we’re relying on fringe players like Delferrie it’s hardly a surprise.

Let’s hope for once we can build on this, trim the squad a bit and have a squad of players all good enough to play.

[JimBHibees]

He’s a very good commentator.

We also had to make multiple subs due to injuries and had a player playing what must be only his second or third ever game for us. No fit right back, Newell playing injured, JDH injured, not all that surprising tbf.

If we got the win folk would be praising Lee for still getting a win with a depleted squad.

[Callum_62]

I'm fuming at the result and performance but our fans are so unbelievably toxic at times. If we were offered 5th in January we'd have taken it.

Crap but as long as celtic do what they should we will get Europe and have finished higher than last year.

I love having somewhere to talk to fellow Hibs fans on here, but it can be depressing after games like this. Too many folk resort to abuseYep, agree. This place can be incredibly draining at times due to the total negative slant that gets trotted out time and time again - it's blinkered

Shame really

5th in the league.
Punted out the League Cup first time of asking
Punted out of the Scottish Cup first time of asking

If your happy with that crack on mate. It's nowhere near good enough.

the cup exits were disappointing.

The top 5 are probably what they should be. Us, hearts and aberdeen should always be fighting amongst ourselves for 3rd, 4th and 5th and that’s how it turned out.

it’s a marginal improvement on last season. Next season I’ll expect another improvement on this one.

[He's here!]

Absolutely raging with that 2nd half. These players are ****ing clueless. Let down after let down.

Hardly a let down. We're a long way from being a great Hibs side but we were the only team trying to win it and anyone knows that the opposition going down to ten men is not some sort of free pass to victory.

Unlucky not to edge it I thought and in all honesty, given the way things were looking not so long ago, I'm content with a fifth place finish and a place in Europe.

[killie-hibby]

I know. Season over, let’s look forward to Europe, avoiding the League Cup group stages and some new signings coming in.

Who honestly thought we’d beat a Hearts team (who had to avoid defeat) at Tynecastle?

Should be raging at the Dundee Utd, Livingston and Motherwell results.

My rage is directed towards VAR decisions at Rugby Park and Dingwall.

[Johnny Clash]

I like Campbell but he’s sadly not got the quality we need

[HIBS NUTS]

We have had a very good end to the season
Beating hearts. celtic, and st mirren
Drawing with hearts and aberdeen away,
and Hopefully Qualifying for Europe.
And some hibs fans want the manager sacked, and all the players are rubbish .
Mabye some, should go and support Manchester City.
I don’t think hibs are good fit, for what you are looking for in supporting a football team.

[Callum_62]

Here he comes. You’re probably happy with that todayI'm delighted I'll have the chance to follow hibs in Europe

Infact I'm about to open a beer and sit in the sun in my garden witmy family and dog

A team we all knew were lacking in depth struggled due to a lack of depth

Frustrating but remaining optimistic. Think we seemed to show we learned from previous transfer mistakes in January so hopefully can get rid of some of the dross and get that depth that we need to continue improving

Because this is the board is in a nut shell

We are ***** we will never get top 6, sack him we we dont

Ah, we got top 6- we were lucky

Ita probably a bad thing as we won't win a game

8 points later it's back to sacking him

Folk are just big bairns who throw hissy fits when things don't go exactly as they want

I was screaming for us to calm down and still play so it's disappointing ending today but it's hardly worth screaming about his ***** the whole club is etc etc

I actually had little hope today as I thought we would be knackered after midweek and we had key players either out injured or carrying an injury

It's an opportunity missed but end of the day we will more than likely be in Europe again

But they have to have a game plan Ian he`s sent them out after half time and at least 4 of them dont have a clue what they are supposed to be doing .
How can so many players get it wrong again and again and again theres no logic to it they dont have a clue where to press and how to use the one man advantage its farcical, if thats whats passing as a professional footballer at ER gawd help us gee gods the SPL is bad enough but surely professionalism has a standard FFS Hanlons and others have launched the ball since half time to no **** ,how do you train for that , where else in the UK do teams play against 10 men and make it ****in easier for them, thats why the prick in the dug outs accountable

losing jdh and cadden really impacted us though and probably when the game slipped away from us (although we still managed to hit the post and had chances to win it)

For a team that were 11 points clear in third. Roles reversed, we’d have lost that

[Onion]

Henderson. Mckirdy. Cabraja. All done
Questions about campbell today. No composure on the ball
Marshall can go
Such an unbalanced squad
Decision making second half was awful
Miller and Cadden going off and the righ hand side was non existent

Dumped out of both cups and 5th in a poor league says it all.

Mediocre manager, terrible recruitment and every likelihood of losing our only remaining player that's worth money. The leftovers are ... just that. Hanlon and Stevenson will have combined age of 175 next season but still better than any of the frauds we've brought in.

And maybe now we can finally put to bed any remaining fantasy about McKirdy actually doing anything productive in a Hibs shirt. Rarely has so much be written about a player that's done so little.

[CapitalGreen]

Yes there was, we needed to attack, so why have a DM like jeggo on the park?

Would probably rather have left Jeggo on if it avoided Newell sitting between our centre backs thinking he’s some incredible playmaker. 66 touches of the ball, only Fish had more in the match, and he did the square root of f*** all with it.

[sauzeelegod]

Playing 60 mins against 10 men and pumping long balls and not winning isn’t a letdown? Win and we go above them. If that’s not a letdown then what is?

[HarpOnHibee]

Yes there was, we needed to attack, so why have a DM like jeggo on the park?

Attacking doesn't automatically equate to simply throwing more attacking players on the pitch. It was efficiency that we needed. A way to break Hearts down and create clear cut opportunities. Putting more attacking players on the pitch allowed us to apply more pressure, but because the balance of the team was disrupted, the pressure was ultimately wasteful as the players couldn't click.

[DinkyTwo]

We had one job to do and were served up the easiest opportunity to accomplish it today, yet still failed. Very disappointing.I think it seems easy on paper. But a game against Hearts where they scored first and only had to scrape a draw to succeed is never going to be easy. 10 men or not.

Time wasting and up to their shenanigans from the 10th minute.

I am so frustrated that we didn't get our foot on the ball more and try to play, but I'll get over it.

Can't emphasise just how much I hate Hearts and the way they play every derby.

Really disappointed with that, disappointed and angry. We let them off the hook with some awful performances from some players that have shown over the course of this season that they're not at our level and should be moved on.

Our best players didn't turn up, the decision making was awful and the heads went with twenty minutes to go.

Fifth is about where were deserved to end up, a bit more quality in the team and we'd have challenged for third. There's nothing really between us, Aberdeen and Hearts.

Next season has to be better.

Some of the comments are absolutely pathetic. We were all out attack and 3 of our better players today, were subbed due to injury. We finished with 4 of our fringe players who have had barley any first team game time, and now everyone should be sacked!! FFS get a grip, we have the 5th biggest budget in the league, and were unbeaten against 3 of the top 4 biggest budgets in the last set of matches.

We all want better quality, but unless we get an Anderson type investment, our signing will be more hit or miss, the same as the majority of every single league team in the world.

[He's here!]

Rubbing it in. Wow. How old are we? We're two derbies unbeaten, not had that for a while. That's something to "rub in".

Only lost one of the four league derbies. Also lost just one of the post-split fixtures and came close to winning four out of five. I've been as critical of this Hibs team as anyone but I feel they're due a bit of credit for showing more dig than I expected to finish in a European spot. Relegation looked more likely at one point.

I think fifth is probably the best we could have hoped for so there are positives to be drawn. Folk are frustrated we couldn't get the goal we needed today but being realistic a draw at Tynecastle is something I think the majority of fans would take in normal circumstances.

Yes there was, we needed to attack, so why have a DM like jeggo on the park?

Good point, the top 5 probably finished in the exact order of their budget. Hearts and Aberdeen may be in the wrong order but we’re surely 5th so we’ve not underperformed, technically anyway.

On the flip side we could’ve so easily been 3rd if we spent more wisely as we’ve got a lot of players that just aren’t good enough for this level.

We probably would have finished 3rd had Boyle been fit given the league ending, but its all ifs and butts, and every team would have similar thoughts. We made some poor or unlucky signing signings whatever way you look at it. And still in the end we missed 3rd place by only 5 points!!

If we had lost to a ten man hearts team today it would have been really grim.

Despite spending more Hearts aren't any better than us and we just need consistency to put us in a less stressful situation next season.

Obviously it wasn't a good result, but we will have Boyler back and Youan is looking quite promising.

[One Day Soon]

Ultimately we managed to blow both cups horribly and in fact the league too. Not just today, though that outcome was very poor. This season confirms everything we already knew - we’re patchy at best, have a massively ordinary squad, a weak midfield and a first team that’s paper thin for first picks.

Johnson will start next season but if we don’t gut that squad and add four or five first team signings then he’s utterly ****ed because we’ll know early on whether it’s the same streaky ‘nearly men’ diet ahead.

[Ronniekirk]

Finishing Fifth is where I expected us to finish given our erratic season But forget no beating dons recently and not taking more points from a poor Dundee United
Today we were presented with a great chance to finish fourth and win back to back derbies and second half we failed miserably
The quality of the subs probably cost us as our shape went the more subs we had to make
Youans decision making was awful second half as well
We couldn’t use the width as game progressed and really lost the man advantage by pumping in long balls that they dealt with
We made it way too easy for them to hold out for the draw

[tamh]

Definitely some improvement though but you are right need to strengthen the squad.

[neil7908]

The problem with today's result is that it's not just a one off - we as fans feel the weight of our rubbish record against them.

We have had so many chances over the years to get one over on them and bottled time and time again. That's why today is so frustrating. They have beaten us 0-3 twice this season and put us out of the cup.

We couldn't have asked for a better chance to get one over on them today. And we are sitting at 1-1, them down to 10 men with an hour to play. But of course it's Hibs so we can't do it. If the shoe was on the other foot you can bet they would have won by 2 or 3.

We need to change our mentality for these games. We always have excuses about injuries, dodgy refs, tiredness etc but at the end of the day I've seen too many of these games go there way for me to conclude they are better organised and want it more.

Maybe LJ is the one to fix this but today so was ****ing predictable.

[darwenhibby]

Christ !!
Remember when they played us 19 years ago
Brebner gets sent off
Did we get a draw that day??
Their shambles got a draw and celebrated
Slating Campbell??
The guy had to go right back!!
Not his natural position
They kicked our right backs off the park
We are not in as bad a position as some would say on here
A few weeks ago we won’t get top 6
We won’t get a point in the top 6
We got 8 out of 15
Beat the lower teams we should beat I think next season will push us on
Glory to the Great Hibees 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

4 or 5 won't be enough imo. We have a number of loanees going back, and very likely to lose Nisbet.

For me we need the following:

GK
LB
CB
DM/CM
Attacking midfielder
Winger
Striker x2.

That's 8 players. And I honestly don't think I'm being outlandish.

That will be very hard to do with the best recruitment team in the world. Hopefully McDermott can fix work some magic but it's a big ask.

[Donegal Hibby]

Last year we finished 8th . This year we have finished 5th and will more than likely be in Europe. Last year in the bottom 6th our last 5 games were : St mirren 1-0 win (A). Livingston 1-0 loss (A) . Aberdeen 1-1 draw (H) . Dundee 3-1 loss (A) . St Johnstone 4-0 win (H) = 7 POINTS.

WE HAVE TAKEN 8 POINTS FROM St mirren , Sevco, Aberdeen, Celtic and hertz only losing once .
Talk of sacking manager and blaming player's like Newell and even Campbell I think is a totally OTT reaction . There's definitely been improvement from last year and the manager just needs the summer to improve the team .As for our Player's like Newell today who's carrying a injury and Campbell Playing out of position I think it's harsh .

It's been a tough run of 5 games in 20 days or so were they have gave us absolutely 100% effort and commitment in them games . There keeper had a few good saves and we hit the post . With injuries and lack of options from the bench we sadly just ran out of steam. I'm certain we will be back stronger next year . Keep the faith.🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

Couldn't see the game on my stick so worked and listened to radio between jobs.sounded all Hibs in the 2nd half but just had zero composure when needed, which sounds ike a lot of our performances. The only way to win these games us getting shot of a) the driss abd b) some under performing high waged venerated players who gave underperformed for almost 3 seasons now.

Will we scrap 10-13 players from this squad, probably not but we should.

That was a chance to batter them in their own stinking toilet. Had we played for an hour with ten men, you can be sure they would have taken advantage. We are still too nice; it feels like a big chance got away from us.
