Team v Motherwell

[Pretty Boy]

I know the obvious answer is 'who cares?' but what do we go with?

For me it should be players who will either be here next season, have contracts beyond that or guys you can trust to give you 100%, the absolute capitulation yesterday was the mark of a team who has given up and downed tools mentally. The bizarre thing is despite having a ridiculous sized squad there feels like a real lack of options to change it up. Anyway:

Johnson

Cadden
Rocky
Hanlon
Stevenson

Amos
Doyle Hayes
Campbell

Boyle
Landers
Jair

Make no mistake that is not a good team, I'm under no illusions it is, if we got totally humped playing that side I wouldn't be surprised. But how many times have we looked at a team on paper, including yesterday, and said 'that looks decent on paper' or 'strongest side we could put out' and then been total no shows?

Get an hour out of Amos and Doyle Hayes then stick Levitt and Welsh on. If we had more youngsters available then I'd be making even more changes. A team of young lads would get more leeway from most fans than the same bodies who have had chance after chance.

Yeah good shout. Can we play Megwa or is that not allowed?

[Tambo]

Just play Johnson in goal and 1v11

All seriousness I think the team will be

Marshall

Cadden
Rocky
Hanlon
Stevenson

NMW
Newell
Emiliano

Boyle
ALF
Maolida

I totally understand what you're saying though regarding the team you have put out, I just don't see Monty changing much.

Johnson

Cadden
Rocky
Hanlon
Stevenson

NMW
Amos
Levitt

Boyle
Landers
Maolida

Would be my experimental team.

[Onceinawhile]

Can't play him or any of the players who were out on loan.

[andrew70]

Johnson

Cadden (preferably Miller but unlikely)
Blaney
Hanlon
Obita

Amos
Levitt
NMW

Campbell

ALF
Vente

Wouldn’t waste another second on Marshal, Wollacott, Rocky, Newell or Boyle. Hanlon only plays as we have no other option. Stevenson gets last 10/15.

Pointless to keep playing loanees who aren’t going to be there and don’t try a leg.

We must get the win. Finishing ninth would be deplorable.

[richard_pitts]

Johnson

Bushiri Fish Hanlon

Cadden NWM Amos Obita

Boyle Vente Maloida

Rationale: the defence is sh*t anyway, so back 3 and get more people where they are effective and give Amos a run out. I'd be looking at playing the kids from the bench methinks.

I’m on board with all of this.

Would possibly play ALF instead of Landers as I think we need a senior player in there to help bring the best out of those around him. He’s a good pro and can be relied upon to give us all he’s got.

[Stuart93]

Who gives a **** at this point

[Allant1981]

Had been trying to get a babysitter so I could go but after yesterday I haven't bothered, he will likely stick with the same team

[500miles]

Campbell up top for Vente, Triantis in for Marcondes, Youan for Boyle and Murray for Wollacott.

[Nicho87]

I’d rather just give Motherwell the 3 points. Players don’t deserve the shirt

[snedzuk]

Same 11 again wouldnt surprise me.

[SeanWilson]

Marsh, hanlon and Lewis. Fill the rest with the mascots.

From what we have:

Marsh
Cadden Rocky hanlon lewis
NMW Campbell Emiliano
Boyle Alf maolida

It doesn’t matter who we play at the back, we’ll ship goals.

[lugz]

While I think he's a goner and fully support that decision I would love to see him grow a pair and make big changes from yesterday. As much as he's at fault those players out there yesterday don't deserve to be back out there.

[number9dream]

Will anyone be there? What a terrible way for Hanlon & Stevenson to bow out…
NWM, Amos & Campbell would at least give us some energy in midfield. Is Jacob McIntyre fit for 30 mins to replace Amos?

[MWHIBBIES]

If we don't play some kids and mix it up, I'll probably just go home at half time.

[MWHIBBIES]

Marsh, hanlon and Lewis. Fill the rest with the mascots.

From what we have:

Marsh
Cadden Rocky hanlon lewis
NMW Campbell Emiliano

Why would be play a crap goalie that were releasing. Play the talented young one.

Would you not rather throw a talented youngster in to a team that won’t leave him all at sea for 90 minutes?

In any case, I don’t particularly care anymore.

[LaMotta]

Can't play him or any of the players who were out on loan.

McIntyre suffered an ankle break in training apparently. Saw Whittaker, Megwa and another young lad in boot at HT yesterday so assume that was him

Yes Emi tackled Jacob and broke his ankle in training.

Let no one say he's not made a lasting impact at the club. :rolleyes:

Can't believe you picked Jair, other than that no disagreement from me.

[B.H.F.C]

I’d give Hanlon his game. Other than that, I’d drop every single one of them and play the kids to make the numbers up.

It’s totally unacceptable to chuck a game like every one of them did yesterday.

[worcesterhibby]

Youth team, Hanlon and Stevenson. The rest can go on holiday.

The rest are already mentally on holiday

[worcesterhibby]

Wollacott (just tell him to punt it up the park not piss around passing)

Cadden Rocky Hanlon Obita

Campbell Stevenson Moriah Welsh

Boyle Vente.. youhan

Really?!

[andrew70]

Really?!

So I was told by a family member and by a couple players at the sponsors event last week.

[One Day Soon]

He's utterly ****ed with the supporters. His best bet is probably to come and post on here offering a start to anyone who fancies it. He might pick up one or two voices in his favour that way.

Other than that, he should just draw names out of a hat. Couldn't be much worse than what we've seen to date.

[Hibee Mac]

Does anyone even care anymore? Makes no difference who he plays we have a squad of absolute bottle jobs with 1 maybe 2 players who you'd keep for next year.

What an absolute shambles of a situation to find ourselves in again, it's pre-relegation Hibs again.

It wasn't a tackle as such, more of a stumble then landed on Hacob, breaking his ankle.

[andrew70]

I see, a shame for Jacob who has been out for too long. What a player we have on our hands there.

[gaz1875]

As long as Levitt and Jair are no where near the squad he can just pick any 11 and tell them to play anywhere they like.

I can take players making a mistake and costing a goal, but Levitt at the 4th was an embarrassment. Jair would just kill any positivity from the fans if he's in the starting line up.

[Keith_M]

We should definitely dump as many of those imposters as possible, the ones that seem to have already gone on their summer holidays.

A young centre back in under 18s any is better than Rocky.

NMW
Newell
Doyle hayes
Stevenson

Maolida
Vente

[The Modfather]

Hope Maolida plays, a chance to also give him a proper send off and thank him for keeping us up.

[GreenCastle]

Amos has only played 20 mins since Feb.

Most for Hibs is 45 mins.

He’s only played more than 75 mins in May 2023.

Has played 90 minutes for a long long time.

JDH hasn’t played since June as far as I’m aware ?

Doubt either will play many minutes as won’t be physically ready.

[eastmainsmsh]

[HendoDelivered]

Start Hanlon and Stevenson. The rest, I couldn’t care about.

[500miles]

Hope Maolida plays, a chance to also give him a proper send off and thank him for keeping us up.

He's been a one man attack at times. Not really had a centre forward to play off either.

[MWHIBBIES]

I suppose there will be a certain level of nostalgia watching Hanlon getting ragdolled all night by Theo Bair and wee Lewie getting up the line only to turn back and roll it to a midfielder about ten times.

Other than that hope Maolida is playing and, if Elie is leaving, would like to get the chance to see him one more time as personally I will miss the bugger.

Why would a Hibs fan post this about 2 of our greatest legends?

Blaney can't play.

[flash]

Blaney can't play.

He's not that bad.

[DaveF]

With Gray in charge you can bet it will be a safe team selection. I doubt there will be much change from recent weeks.

[Onceinawhile]

He's not that bad.

Apologies. Blaney is unavailable for hibs to select for the game.

[flash]

Apologies. Blaney is unavailable for hibs to select for the game.

No need to apologise it was a lame attempt at humour by me.

[flash]

I was thinking there would be a certain irony in them both lining up together on the left side of our defence… and for it to look secure for the first time since we beat Aberdeen at Pittodrie under David Gray.

Post deleted. It was crass.

[Wheat Hound]

With some of the pressure & toxicity relieved now, I'd hope we might see Murray Johnson get a chance

Easy to forget there's a game tonight! Think Hibs will win and win well. SDG will get them set up correctly and play them to their strengths.

3-0
