2023-24 season non-Hibs games thread

[Pagan Hibernia]

United going out of Europe as it stands.

What a shame :faf:

They are so pathetic.

To be knocked out of Europe, bottom of that group with only (as it stands) 4 points, after the money they've spent is a monumental failure. Absolutely embarrassing for them

[HH81]

I don't think they are good enough to have breezed through it, but they certainly shouldn't be finishing bottom that is for sure.

Nonsense. Not finishing at least 2nd in this group is a sackable offence for Man u.

[HoboHarry]

How is Ten Haag still in a job?
They are in the same old spiral that happens to a lot of clubs - Ralf Rangnik said they were 6 years behind Liverpool so sacking Ten Haag will simply mean someone else starting over. They don't have the cash to buy enough quality to seriously compete with City, Liverpool and Arsenal so nothing is going to change any time soon regardless of who is in charge.

[Since90+2]

Nonsense. Not finishing at least 2nd in this group is a sackable offence for Man u.

I don't think you understood my post if you think it's nonsense.

I never said they shouldn't qualify, but "breezing through" as you put it would suggest they should be qualifying at a canter.

Anyone who has watched them recently can see they are nowhere near good enough to breeze through any Champions League group.

They absolutely have the cash. Their problem is they have no idea what they're doing when it comes to spending it.

I’m with you. In their current state not many would have thought they’d breeze through the group but they still should have finished 2nd. Sad indictment of where they are at just now.

The players they have brought in are simply not good enough. I don’t think sacking ETH will change anything so in my mind he should get at least until end of the season but that could be a stretch.

[HoboHarry]

No they don't, it was reported in October that their debt stands at 1 billion which is eye watering. Take a look at their team and figure out what it would take to buy enough quality to match the big boys. Ten Haag has been quoted before talking about not being able to spend vast fortunes.

[Trinity Hibee]

What MU should have done was sign SJM a couple of seasons ago. I really think someone with his attitude would have had a huge impact on that squad. They’ve instead signed dud after dud.

[Pagan Hibernia]

They'll get mauled at anfield again and that will likely be that for the dutchman

[BILLYHIBS]

Funnily enough was just looking at that Rasmus Hojlund makes The Hoff look like Marco Van Basten 0 goals from 19 with Copenhagen sold for €2m to Sturm Graz 9 goals from 18 sold for €20m to Atalanta scored 9 from 32 sold to Man Utd for €75m 0 goals from 12 appearances
Fewest touches first half tonight no shots on target but give the boy the benefit of the doubt he is only 20
Nice work if you can get it

Edit :

He has scored 5 in Europe this season

Fernandes on a good day and McTominay might get a game for City, I doubt Pep would take any of the others as a free gift.

Those stats say it all really. What recruitment team look at that and say yeah we’ll put all our eggs in that basket

[Since90+2]

Fernandes on a good day and McTominay might get a game for City, I doubt Pep would take any of the others as a free gift.

Who would McTominay be getting a game ahead of at City? He's done well but he'd not be starting for City even at his peak IMO.

[Donegal Hibby]

I wonder how long Utd are going to stick with ten Hag ? A few Utd supporters I know don't actually blame him though hasn't he spent rather a lot since becoming there manager?

[HoboHarry]

Who would McTominay be getting a game ahead of at City? He's done well but he'd not be starting for City even at his peak IMO.
Never said he would replace anyone. There's no logic to this "best team" or "starting 11" thing, there isn't a team in the world who play the same 11 every week, injuries, suspensions, loss of form and tactical tweaking make sure of that.

[J-C]

They absolutely have the cash. Their problem is they have no idea what they're doing when it comes to spending it.

Also add in the ridiculous wages handed out to players like Rashford etc, the money wasted on that squad is frightening.

[McD]

Not sure fernandes gets near the city squad, he’s got talent but he’s lazy and petulant, which Pep wouldn’t stand for at all

[McD]

Also add in the ridiculous wages handed out to players like Rashford etc, the money wasted on that squad is frightening.


:agree:

Some of the money they’ve spent on transfers (80+million for Anthony, who’s not looked worth a tenth of that), and the insane wages


I’m sure I read last summer that Real Madrid were moving on from Casemiro as a regular first team player, and were happy to sell, but not feeling rushed. Nothing much happened, then all of a sudden, Man Utd gave up on trying to get de Jong from Barcelona, and flung 60odd million at Madrid to get Casemiro. Madrid must have been laughing all the way to the bank

[Pagan Hibernia]

Donegal Hibby mutually consented?

What on earth for?

[A Hi-Bee]

Ten Haag, be lucky if its Ten Days.
Could not happen to a better team.

[HoboHarry]

Wondered the same thing.

[HoboHarry]

I agree with you hence I said on a good day. I'm just meaning on talent alone he's certainly good enough to play for City but I'd be astonished if he ever did.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Hopefully this will be the last time we ever see them in the top flight.


nah, though wasn't there this time around it's always an away fixture i look forward to

just there and Motherwell nowayears, both nearest top flight stadiums to me

[WeeRussell]

I agree with you hence I said on a good day. I'm just meaning on talent alone he's certainly good enough to play for City but I'd be astonished if he ever did.

Yep. Real talent. Too much of a dick

[WeeRussell]

That’s a shame. Found him a pleasant and reasonable poster, even if people didn’t always agree with him.

Note Brightside has also departed so assume it was a result of the gaffer thread that was derailed for a spell.

I didn't see the offending posts but I'm a little surprised he got involved in that type of thing. Ah well, onwards and upwards :)

At least they seemed to have finally realised that and he’s no longer involved. Saying that Provan for me was by far the worst.

Edit :

As you say, he's only 20 so the fact he has played for all these clubs as a teenager has to be factored in. Maybe not a great scoring record yet but lots of clubs have seen his potential. He also already has a very impressive scoring record for Denmark so has clearly got something.

[HoboHarry]

At least they seemed to have finally realised that and he’s no longer involved. Saying that Provan for me was by far the worst.
He still gets a shift on some English games we get here. Honestly no idea what he brings to the game that is even remotely insightful.

[HoboHarry]

1-0
Be patient, they've got loads of time to blow the lead....

[JohnM1875]

Fine with them winning this one. Out of Europe anyway and a win will slightly help the coefficient. Aye they get money but we’re minted now so that’s fine.

[Bridge hibs]

Im sure he sucks on helium balloons during every celtc attack, his squeaky voice tones down a couple of squeaks whenever Feyenoord attack !

Rovers 2 points clear and they play the Arabs on Saturday at Tannadice.

Agree my post was more about his quick rise from obscurity and the eye watering transfer fees that have changed hands in a short space of time

Best of luck to the lad

[Lago]

Leicester 3 Millwall 2, Nisbet 90+3

FT
Millwall just above drop zone.

[SJNB Hibby]

Nice goal for Celtic that

[worcesterhibby]

Been watching the Stockport v Aldershot FA cup match on Coucil Telly here in England. Tommy Widderington really knows how to set up a team. Not the highest quality but fantastic organisation and pressing for a non league club.

[Broken Gnome]

2-1 Raith 95th minute winner, Lewis Vaughan.

Rovers 2 points clear and they play the Arabs on Saturday at Tannadice.

Half their points seem to have been won beyond the 80th minute, and at least ten of them in injury time.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Millwall just above drop zone.

and at the other end Leicester and Ipswich running away with the two automatic promotion spots :(

[cabbageandribs1875]

Barcelona beat again

Antwerp 3 Barcelona 2, Barca equalised on 90+1, Antwerp won it on 90+2

[CentreLine]

2-1 Raith 95th minute winner, Lewis Vaughan.

Rovers 2 points clear and they play the Arabs on Saturday at Tannadice.

Last thing we need is yet another plastic pitch to contend with in the Premiership. Ian Murray doing a great job but I hope Raith slide down the table far enough for that not to be a possibility.

I know last night I said Hartson was the worst co-commentator but I’d inexplicably forgotten about Craigan.

Just as I type this 1-0 🐏

[cabbageandribs1875]

Aberdeen 1 Eintracht 0

[scm70nyd1973]

Betis v Rangers. I was in the Betis shop in October, thought I was in the Hibs shop.

Me too - over for the Scotland game I assume - it was exactly like a Hibs shop - I picked up what can only be described as a Hibs top without the badge - I was well chuffed 😁

[Since90+2]

Aberdeen 1 Eintracht 0

Apparently it's 500,000 Euros per game for a win in the conference league. Not to be sniffed at

[Hiber-nation]

2+0 sheep. How this lot beat Bayern 5-1 is beyond me.

[cabbageandribs1875]

£430k for a win :agree: 2-0


Frankfurt are Rankfurt


no wonder with two leeds loanees playing

[HoboHarry]

As always I hope Sevco get bent over and roggered.

[Since90+2]

Having the ultras group behind the goals at Pittodrie has definitely improved the atmosphere there. Pittodrie was also a bit shan in that regard, but you can hear the difference it can make.

The seem to have a good number too. Hibs take note.

[cabbageandribs1875]

£859k just for their group stage results

[Since90+2]

£859k just for their group stage results

Plus TV money and 3 decent sized home crowds. They'll have pocketed good money from qualifying.

[Since90+2]

Celtic winning last night and Aberdeen today won't have done our coefficient any harm at all.

[neil7908]

2+0 sheep. How this lot beat Bayern 5-1 is beyond me.

And we beat Aberdeen 2-0, therefore it's Hibs 9 - 1 Bayern Munich.

[scm70nyd1973]

Liked the seats on the stairs and the Betis in green on the green top.

I liked everything - I live here so I’ve adopted them as my Spanish team😁

[A Hi-Bee]

£859k just for their group stage results

All the more reason why we need to get our new investor in and qualify as 3rd team to get into Europe and do it every year.
It is a real gamechanger.

[greenlex]

That’s what I call socks.💚

[eastterrace]

That’s what I call socks.💚quality strip as well, something we should have for our 2nd strip and punt the purple one.

9 changes apparently. Meaningless game for them.

1-0 the filthy buns

Real Betis are Real Rank :(

[green day]

1-0 the filthy buns

Well worked goal tbf. That Sima lad seems a quality player.

[David90+2]

Thought I would endure some of the **** game….lasted 2 minutes listening to Kenny miller, then changed to the West Ham game!! #earache

[cabbageandribs1875]

he's wanting to make the loan permanent as well

[green day]

Real Betis are the Real Deal 1-1 :)

[cabbageandribs1875]

[Tyler Durden]

That’s twice that Betis have been denied blatant corners and Rangers go up the other end and score within 60 seconds

[cabbageandribs1875]

Sparta doing the business, Betis could get emptied out here, good chance with that defending

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

1-0 The Hammers

[green day]

Goals in the **** game have all been excellent. 2-2

[cabbageandribs1875]

ooft some strike 2-2

[green day]

Still can't get over that the word *** is deemed sectarian, I might as well just type **** as **** as both get blanked out.....

Betis just getting their hopes up, it’ll finish 6-2 no worries 😅

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

1-0 The Hammers

2-0

The sticky’s looking for a pen they’d be guaranteed in the Scottish prem.

[cabbageandribs1875]

sevco out as it stands

[Paul1642]

I’m actually slightly torn on this one. I have never been in the camp of wanting old form to do well in Europe for the coefficient, however with seemingly big investment in Hibs imminent and our coefficient balancing on a knife edge rangers winning could just maybe be in our interest.

On the flip side the rangers financial gain would see to keeping the gap above us as big as ever.

More so on the flip side, f*** the ***

[cabbageandribs1875]

3-0 sparta

[cabbageandribs1875]

it's good Betis need to win this or they'll finish runners-up

and i presume possibly a tougher tie

Is it actually deemed secretarian and the reason for banning its use? It’s not secretarian. For me it’s simply a term to describe an objectionable band of despicable and anti-social individuals ( which, in my opinion, they are ). We can’t use a mildly offensive term of derision when referring to them but all and sundry are welcome to refer to us as ‘spoon burners’, ‘druggies’ with incestuous tendencies. Personally I don’t give a toss about the banter terms used to describe us but it has to work both ways.

[ErinGoBraghHFC]

According to Scottish law it is sectarian, if anything it’s xenophobic against Germans imo

For the co-efficient, Rangers are more likely to make a further contribution if they drop into the Conference given the relative calibre of their next opponents.

In football terms these days that is quite a serious injury

That's quite an unbelievable outcome - winning their group into the bargain.

Hopefully Aberdeen bring them crashing back down to Earth with a bump.

It's a strange one for the buns, a full game played and no penalty for them.
You'd think it was a conspiracy.

The last two days have got Scotland 2.2 coefficient points.

That will hopefully mean we go straight into the group stages when we win the league next season.

[green day]

Feel bad saying it, but the currant buns deserved to win that......

Fair play to The Rangers they finished top of their section

Well done

Anyone know what team Rory Hamilton supports ? :greengrin

[IberianHibernian]

I`ve seen a few Betis matches this season and they`re much weaker this season than they`ve been for 4 or 5 years . A few minutes away from losing in cup to a team several divisions lower last week and lower in league than in recent years in a relatively poor Spanish league . Also body language of Betis players and manager suggested they weren`t that bothered about going out of EL tonight even if they still have to play Conference .

[Jack Hackett]

Buzzing on the Brighton result... Magnificent achievement to win the group💙🍾 Billy Gilmour outstanding

AC Milan
Young Boys
Shakthar Donetsk


they will join these 2nd placed sides from the Europa League groups in the play-off round

SC Freiburg
Marseille
Sparta Prague
Sporting Lisbon
Toulouse

Sticky Buns
West Ham
Brighton
Atalanta
Liverpool
Villarreal
Slavia Prague
Bayer Leverkusen

3 Scottish wins in a week must help our coefficient

[Pescarese]

Only the one Spanish club in the last 16... Villareal, who are just up the road from me, but the odds of drawing them are 15 to 1 :boo hoo:

... Maybe in the Quarters :greengrin

The odds of Villareal drawing the Stickies in the last 16 are nil, it's a seeded draw so each of them will play a winner from the qualifiers.

Much as the coefficient needs the points, I can't bring myself to want the Stickies to reach the Quarters.

If Postecoglou is still Celtic manager then they’re 2-0 up in this game, Rodgers has taken that team so far backwards it defies belief

Yeah we seem to be one of the only teams not to have given them more of a game at Celtic Park recently.

Probably the same excuse as the previous 52 attempts (or however many it is)teams have had and failed to win at Parkhead since they last lost a league game there.

They are nowhere near the team they were under Ange, Kilmarnock last week and the gimps are showing if you set up properly and compete against them they can be got at, christ even this lot we are losing to now were 10-15 minutes away from beating them the other week.

A hell of a lot of players seem to be collapsing/getting diagnosed with heart issues these days.

Apparently Lockyer is now responsive and alert, great news.

Their run without a win there is currently longer than ours. To paraphrase an awful cliche, they're "due a win."

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Quite looking forward to Burnley v Everton after sitting through this.

Rodgers came back for an easy shift. It's not turning out that way.

Saw the headline earlier and really hope he’s ok. this is now the second time in 6 or so months he’s collapsed on the field of play. Wonder if it’s a continuation of the previous issue?

Hope there’s no lasting damage and he makes a full recovery!

Just had a look and he had heart Surgery in may following his collapse on the pitch against Coventry in play off game and returned in June after being given the all clear!

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Valencia 1 Barcelona 1, not long to go. Xavi will be under a bit of pressure soon.

What a job Ian Murray is doing at Raith.

Anyone know what they’re like on a weekly basis?

They’ve score some amount of last minute winners, is it luck or are they/Murray the real deal?

Absolutely brutal for Kyle that. Can’t begin to think what that must do to a player mentally.

All eyes on Annfield down south today but if Villa can win away to Brentford they will have the chance to go top on Friday when they host Sheff Utd.

If the refereeing so far is anything to go by they should have just awarded the cup to the **** before the game and saved everyone the bother of turning up.

[jeffers]

Actually surprised he never booked the Aberdeen player there, though it was Shinnie so normal rules don’t apply.

[SlickShoes]

How’s shinnie not booked?

[greenlex]

How’s shinnie not booked?
Cos it’s Shinnie. It’s against the laws of the game.
as an aside it’s also in the bible under the 11th commandment. Thou shalt not book Shinnie.

[scm70nyd1973]

Must be a signing target for the Bosch

Don't want to see a direct rival win a cup. They are few and far between for us, Hearts and Aberdeen. If Rangers don't win the cup today they'll win one next season. Doesn't mean anything to me. Come on the sticky buns.

[scm70nyd1973]

So exactly what is the penalty box jersey tug rule ?

[blackpoolhibs]

Conclusive proof they are ref'd different to us.

It's clear as day that the refs are cheats.:rolleyes:

[SteveHFC]

Tug always a penalty unless the offender wears blue

[jeffers]

So exactly what is the penalty box jersey tug rule ?

If it’s a Rangers player tugging a jersey no penalty is to be awarded. If it’s a Rangers player having his jersey tugged a penalty is to be awarded.

[Helensburghhibs]

Andrew dallas doesn't get involved....... Like he was ever going to get involved in a penalty shout against them.

Dessers falling down holding his face there. Embarrassment.

Ah right - got ya now - sadly it makes total sense - it’s just beyond belief isn’t it - just ridiculous - rips ma knitting big time 😡 It’s probably written in a special ink that only Sevco employees can read with special glasses supplied by the SFA to Der Bosch 🤬
