2023-24 season non-Hibs games thread

[JohnM1875]

That’s a pen if he’s onside unfortunately

[JohnM1875]

20 minutes in, been about 10 minutes worth of var checks

[Aldo]

I’ve had to turn it over to the giro.

Every single little thing is going to VAR to look for every conceivable way to help them!

[Paulie Walnuts]

Defo a pen, don’t think it’s a red though.

[JohnM1875]

Red card? For what

[hibee_girl]

He shouldn't be getting sent off for that.

[Paulie Walnuts]

That’s never a red in a million years. The ball hits him, whilst he’s falling backward, from about a foot away.

[tamig]

That red is ridiculous. Outrageous.

[JohnM1875]

That is harsh as ****

[CMac1988]

Red card... ****ing hell.

[JohnM1875]

Honestly this is a total shambles

[Gatecrasher]

Turned it off, that was never a red card.

[CapitalGreen]

Great save by our new keeper.

[J-C]

Again seeing corruption at it's worst, it's getting so blatant now, never a red.

Great save though.

[Donegal Hibby]

It was definitely a penalty though a red card I think is very harsh , spoilt the game .

[Allant1981]

Rangers getting beat, of course something like a red card was going to happen

[LewysGot2]

Turned it off, that was never a red card.

Pen saved :greengrin

[Sylar]

Didn’t the double jeopardy rule get introduced to prevent red cards occurring with penalties?

[hibee_girl]

:faf::faf:

Tavernier is having a great game

[JohnM1875]

Some save from our new keeper next season 🤞

[Gloucester Hibs]

Turned it off, that was never a red card.

Hearts player saves Campbell’s shot on the line at Xmas = no red card

[Joe6-2]

:faf::faf:

Tavernier is having a great game

😂 just need the 10 men to win now!

[Paulie Walnuts]

Didn’t the double jeopardy rule get introduced to prevent red cards occurring with penalties?

Yup. It should only be a red if the player is making no attempt to play the ball/deliberately impeding. There’s no way anything about that was deliberate.

[Donegal Hibby]

Another VAR check to see if the keeper was on his line . Trying their best for Sevco.

[DaveF]

Hearts player saves Campbell’s shot on the line at Xmas = no red card

It was Vente but your point is 100% correct. Is it only a red card when it suits sevco?

[DarlingtonHibee]

Soutar 😆

[Bridge hibs]

Soutars shot clears the stand and skelps off Navids shop window

[Bridge hibs]

That Dennis looks a very confident keeper

[HibbyAndy]

Snooker final for me , Rangers will simply not be allowed to lose this football match , Not in a million years

[CMac1988]

That Dennis looks a very confident keeper

If he's on his way here then he's we'll soon sort that.

[Bridge hibs]

If he's on his way here then he's we'll soon sort that.

Is he on his way here ?

[Donegal Hibby]

That Dennis looks a very confident keeper

Hope we are in for him , would be a massive upgrade on what we have .

[JohnM1875]

Is he on his way here ?

He’s on loan from Bournemouth. Seems a logical move that he comes here in the summer.

[CMac1988]

Is he on his way here ?

Not sure on the source but on the Summer transfer thread he's in the rumoured in section.

[Bridge hibs]

Not sure on the source but on the Summer transfer thread he's in the rumoured in section.

Ah cheers 👍

[MWHIBBIES]

Snooker final for me , Rangers will simply not be allowed to lose this football match , Not in a million years

Same for me. Think Kyren will win.

[HibbyAndy]

Same for me. Think Kyren will win.

Agreed mate :agree:

[Trinity Hibee]

How is that not a booking for cantwell

[blackpoolhibs]

How is that not a booking for cantwell

Do you really need to ask?

[Callum_62]

How on earth is that a red card?

Penalty absolutely but he's falling back so his arm comes up

Rowles in the derby was significantly worse and I'm not even sure he got booked

Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk

[J-C]

I know it's been said before but some of these Rangers players are a thoroughly dislikeable lot, Cantwell and Silva for instance, were they always unlikeable or it a Rangers thing.

[Www1875hfc]

Laughable that Shankland deliberately palmed a ball yesterday on a booking and wasn’t even given a yellow .

Hopefully we sign Dennis in the summer.

Is there anyone left on here who still thinks McInnes is not a very good manager and not qualified to be at Hibs.

There’s still some that don’t like the fact he has a better tan than them

[Hibees1973]

Well he won't be appointed by Kensell then.

[hibee_girl]

1-1 right on half time.

What is it with teams switching off right on half time

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

1-0 Chelsea, could be a long afternoon ahead for The Hammers.

[Donegal Hibby]

Don't think anyone has said McInnes isn't a good manager , is there ? , Killie are certainly reaping the rewards for sticking with him when he had a bad season.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

1-0 Chelsea, could be a long afternoon ahead for The Hammers.

2-0, time to switch over to the Villa game.

[Donegal Hibby]

Dennis unlucky with that goal I thought.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

2-0, time to switch over to the Villa game.

3-0, no more updates from me

Hibs, West Ham and Inter all pumped on the same weekend.🤬

[Donegal Hibby]

Possession

Sevco 73.1 %.

Shots

Sevco 31/12
Killie 2/1.

Killie getting abit of a doing now .

[blackpoolhibs]

Dennis unlucky with that goal I thought.That was a bit of a soft goal he let in there.

[Malthibby]

Think Killie were just knackered by the end, we've done no better than that with 11 on the pitch.
How many penalties have They had this season now?

[J-C]

Killie playing with 10 men for 68+ minutes didn't help them, hard enough with 11 on the park at Ibrox.

[Lago]

Moyes days are numbered at West ham

[Lancs Harp]

Moyes days are numbered at West ham

I think his contract is up at the end of the season. I think they are looking elsewhere.

Spurs getting absolutely schooled by Liverpool , Pleasing

[cabbageandribs1875]

Andy Robertson turning into a bit of a goal machine of late


get him up beside Che Adams at the Euro's :)

3-0 liverpool

[K-Zazu]

Big Ange Postecoglu starting to get found out a bit recently. You can’t play the same way every week and get away with it down south you need a plan B sometimes.

[LewysGot2]

Going from bad to worse for Spurs. 3-0 Liverpool

[cabbageandribs1875]

think this guarantees aston villa will join Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool in the CL next season

Spurs should still get a Europa place

i discounted the game v Man City :greengrin aston villa presently 7 points ahead of them, they will win the other two though i think



stranger things have happened right enough

[cabbageandribs1875]

4-1 game on

[J-C]

Spurs after the 1st 10 games have really fallen away and 4 defeats in a row against the big boys isn't great for big Ange, TBH they won sod all when Kane was there and it looks like they'll be the nearly men again, they just lack something.

Kenny Hun Miller, first VAR penalty check for Huns ‘as much as I don’t think it’s a penalty, it would be a wonderful opportunity for Rangers’ then ‘really, really good call, strong call’ because it was Ipox? next was this little gem ‘normally you see a ref come to the monitor, they sometimes get swayed by their friend in the studio’ wtf?

I’m all for having a go at him, Huns and commentators… but all 3 of the above statements were essentially spot-on?

[B.H.F.C]

Today was the third time a ref has went to the monitor at Ibrox but stuck with their original decision, to the detriment of Rangers.

To me, it’s showing the desperation of the folk doing VAR to give them a decision. VAR is exposing bias all over the place.

Another cracker with Kevin Clancy when refereeing Hearts yesterday. It’s absolutely inexplicable that a referee could miss the Shankland handball. It was the most blatant handball you’ll ever see and he couldn’t have missed it. The day after the independent review said he shouldn’t have given a penalty to Hearts in the derby…

Something like 8 managers Utd have had in 11 years including interim and caretakers too . All the changes haven't got them anywhere . Heard Thomas Tuchel is being lined up next .

Watched this today of another manager who might be beginning to come under abit of pressure.

The only unfunny thing about Man Utd's downfall is that all the irritating glory hunter ****ers in high school who wouldn't shut up about them probably all support Man City now.

The parallels between us and MU are quite something. ETH has to be sacked tomorrow surely

Very well played Palace. A total humiliation for United, totally outplayed would be an understatement.

[J-C]

These United players have stopped playing for Ten Haag, how he's lasted this long with the season they've had is baffling., truly awful for the money they've cost.

[Mcbizz1998]

wtf are the Man United away support all about? I understand supporting your team but singing and dancing after a humiliation like that is very odd. I’m not condoning any abuse but I would have been gone and heading back to Manchester at FT if not before.

Aye it's just stupid. Casemiro will be thinking he did ok after that.

[Donegal Hibby]

Very well played Palace. A total humiliation for United, totally outplayed would be an understatement.

I thought when Newcastle United played them Newcastle weren't at their best (looked like a tired team tbh ),take nothing away from palace though who were energetic and really played as a team . As much as I was disappointed with the result , Palace were excellent . Looks like they have a decent manager imo .

[JimBHibees]

Got to be said if that defence plays against Arsenal in what i think is this weekend that could be a cricket score. Their fans will also now be wishing they hadn't beaten Coventry. Palace were decent actually think they could and should have scored more. Bruno for all his faults maybe does bring an important element to the team.

Man United will be trying hard against Arsenal. They always do against them and Liverpool. Ten hag been moaning all season about the defeat at Arsenal. Will be very difficult for Arsenal I think.

Although a few united players clearly on the beach already so who knows.

If playing against that defence Arsenal would need to be very poor not to score a few. Early goal kills that atmosphere though clearly as the two recent games at Old Trafford against Liverpool have shown they can still get unlikely results

Lewis ferguson named best midfielder in serie A, just our luck he's out of the euro's :(

PSG tactics are a bit curious tonight, they seem determined to constantly play down the right and throw in crosses. Dortmund seem pretty untroubled by that.

My comment was ‘falls out with everyone and is chased on repeat’ where have I said he hasn’t achieved anything?

He’s not a manager that can bring long term success, he won’t be around for reigns like pep, ancelottii because he’s incapable of keeping his trap shut, he gets a good impact going into a club and it tails off, Bayern have stopped him speaking to media a few occasions this season scared of the rubbish he’ll talk, his achievement with Chelsea was special that came out of nowhere and was down to his impact no arguments but psg was all expected possibly argue the final was an achievement, pokal with Dortmund good as well not unheard of if you look further than bosz as he was a complete disaster

Villa missing the likes of Rogers and Tielemans tonight. Even with such a depleted bench though, surely need to hook Matty Cash at HT. Dreadful performance from him.

Get a CM or Duran on and move McGinn or Bailey wider.

[hibsbollah]

Atalanta are a top side.
2-0.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Atalanta are a top side.
2-0.

They are a very entertaining team to watch.

[BILLYHIBS]

Leverkusen 0 v 2 Roma

[HH81]

Villa poor in this tie. Step too far.

[cameronw-hfc]

Villa playing very poorly. Douglas Luiz having another shocker.

Squad injuries have ruined his last part of the season. Desperately needs a break but nobody to swap him for.

Shame as his form dipping has coincided with villa being poor the last few weeks also.

[GreenCastle]

Atalanta are a top side.
2-0.

What a difference having a good coach / manager makes.

[babahibs]

Atalanta are a top side.
2-0.

They were very impressive v Liverpool in the last round, tactics were spot on.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Leverkusen are NOT unbeatable after all

Olympiakos 2 villa 0

Leverkusen 1 Roma 2 game on

[Tyler Durden]

Can’t believe that one is on side 😮

[DH1875]

Leverkusen are NOT unbeatable after all

They've just scored. If that's the kind of luck they had all season no wonder their winning most games.

4 mins+ to keep the run going

[DH1875]

Its mental. Their losing the game but going through as it stands. Still pushing forward and trying to score. Should have scored there though to be fare. Frimpong should have squared it.

[DH1875]

4 mins+ to keep the run going

7 mins injury time. Commentator just called them Bayern Munich lol.

[hibsbollah]

Well,OM have not been great but Atalanta are irresistible. 3-0, 4-1 on aggregate.

I think theyll beat Leverkusen.

[Stevie Reid]

It’s funny thinking back to the Villa game at the start of the season now, feels a little like when Barca pumped us 6-0 in that friendly in 2008.

Always feels embarrassing to lose any game by such a big margin, but it’s only as the season ends that you can appreciate just how good they are/were.

Obviously this Villa team are not anywhere near the level of Pep’s side that won that treble, but they’re still a bona fide top four EPL team, and in both cases, gives much more context to the heavy defeats.

[DH1875]

They've just scores lol. 2-2. Mental.

[erin go bragh]

No so sure. Leverkusen keep their incredible unbeaten season going with a 97m leveller.

[GreenCastle]

Wow new record - 49 games unbeaten!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Leverkusen ARE unbeatable

[B.H.F.C]

Said it the other night watching Dortmund, spirit, guts and determination play such a big part in football. Obviously them and Leverkusen both have a fair bit quality but you can’t get anywhere without that desire.

:agree:
Get the culture right, top to bottom, and you start winning things.

[babahibs]

Leverkusen, just wow.
Can they keep the run going till the end of their season, very special if they do?

[GreenCastle]

:agree:

Makes it depressing how far off we are with team connection and good times at Hibs. No co-incidence we won the Scottish Cup with that group of players who had great chemistry with each other and fans.

I said this the other day on another thread, but things change ridiculously quickly in football. Never felt as low as Ross County league cup loss in March 2016, thought we’d never win at Hampden again :faf: always keep the faith

[cabbageandribs1875]

just watched a replay for that Roma penalty


no way was that a penalty

[SteveHFC]

Atalanta-Leverkusen will be a great final.

[MWHIBBIES]

It can turn around quickly though. That Scottish cup squad had a bunch of lower league English players that this site swears against (oxley, Logan, gray, Fontaine, dagnall) a dick of a human being who left us for Celtic (stokes) another dick who left us for Rangers (Thomson) a few injury prone guys (Mcgeouch, Fyvie, farid) and some doughnut rookie manager.

On paper it really wasn't miles away from our current one.

Looked like a handball to me at the time, but I could be wrong.

[Lancs Harp]

Handball for me too.

[Lancs Harp]

Atalanta-Leverkusen will be a great final.

Cant see anything other than a Leverkusen win. You never know in football of course but Atalanta have been moderate to say the least in Serie A this season. Leverkusen on the other hand ....

[Lancs Harp]

Villa poor in this tie. Step too far.

Too slow too pedestrian at that level and you can certainly include our very own SJM in that.

[hibsbollah]

They may surprise you. 5th in a strong serie a this year, cup final against Juve next week and possible double on the cards. They dominate possession against weaker teams, and play great on the break against stronger teams. 3-0 flattered Marseille tonight. I think Atalanta are flying under the radar.

[RyeSloan]

Leverkusen, just wow.

Unique I believe if they do.

No team, ever, have went unbeaten in all competitions over the whole season.

They are two league games, a domestic final (against lower league opposition!) and a Euro final away from doing something that may never be repeated for a lifetime!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Looked like a handball to me at the time, but I could be wrong.

yeah but it just dropped down on to his hand with the attacking player just missing the ball with a header, i really thought it was very unlucky on the defender, it's not like he put his hand towards the ball.

Hammered Liverpool also

[cabbageandribs1875]

according to Edin Live there's a good chance heartz will go straight into the Europa league group stages if both Dortmund & Atalanta win the finals, guaranteeing them £7m but if they do lose a play-off and go straight to conference group stage they will just have to make do with a paltry guaranteed £5m.

[Up-the-slope]

looking forward to part 2 of Partick v Airdrie.

I think Edin Live may be out of date about the how clubs are moved directly into group stages if there's a vacancy. Next season it will be based on clubs' five year ranking not country ranking as previously.

[one day maybe...]

Well said Brian Graham is time for change

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Some comeback from Crewe after being 2-0 down after their home leg to beat Donny on penalties. Horrendous déjà vu from the Hamilton games. 😢

[KdyHby]

Off to the big match between Thornton Hibs and Bo'ness Athletic. The Hibees are already promoted, and if they win today's match they'll be one point behind the league leaders with two matches left. Tense stuff!

i can't find the article again but i think it added a Belgian side to the permutation somewhere:hmmm:

Think big win today for Celtic 4 1

[Aldo]

Souttar caught wrong side after 40 seconds, pulls the Celtic player back. No booking

[Aldo]

There’s another. Any other team or game and Collum has the yellow card flashed before the player hits the deck.

[JohnM1875]

‘I don’t think, in this game, that’s enough for a yellow’ it shouldn’t be refereed any differently. Hate that it is.

[hibee_girl]

:agree:

Miller saying it's not a yellow card in this game. Why is this game any different?

[Aldo]

:agree:

I know. Barisic prevents the quick free kick. No booking.

[Callum_62]

Can't believe Fabio Silva didn't get a penalty there

The special treatment these teams get is ridiculous, it is cheating plain and simple.

And not even bothering to try and hide it.


Yet there are some folk who still try and put it down to incompetance.:rolleyes:

[greenginger]

:agree:

We all know we need foreign refs and var assistants to make the game fair.

Foreign pundits would help too :greengrin

[hibsbollah]

Thats a great save from Butland. Low to the right and hard he also had to change direction. Thats the kind of save that Marshall very rarely makes.

[hibee_girl]

1-0 Celtic

[hibsbollah]

GTF huns.
