2024-25 season non-Hibs games thread

[Glory Lurker]

Anybody worried that Hearts might notice they're doing better without a manager? If they don't appoint one, not only will they save money but they could win the league. And the European thing.

These are dangerous times, ladies and gentlemen.

Aberdeen v Hearts a sell out..

win our next 7 and when we face them at Easter Road it’ll be packed - heard it here first

The Celtic and Rangers financial contradictions from European nights to domestic dominance

These are dangerous times, ladies and gentlemen.

BBC preview of their trip to Aberdeen gives you the impression they're in title contention rather than bottom of the league following last night's first win since May.

Nice goal from Leeds

[hibsbollah]

Johnathan Rowe scores 4 minutes after coming on for Marseille against Angers, after scoring a last minute screamer tobwin the derby against Lyon the week before. On loan from Norwich, looks an exceptional talent.

Angers equalise. 10 against 10.

2-2, shocking error from the keeper. 🤭

[DaveF]

What is the keeper up to there? He must have 10 grand on a draw as that is incredible.

[cabbageandribs1875]

i don't know what it's going to take for someone at Leeds to finally realise that meslier is one of the biggest clowns to play in goals, he's an absolute joke and chucks at least a couple in every season, every time he plays about with the ball at his feet i always hold my breath and i certainly won't be the only one

he will be in the top ten for keeper bloopers

[BILLYHIBS]

Dearie me

[Bishop Hibee]

Absolute howler from the Leeds keeper but as I have a soft spot for the Lads I’m happy. Top of the league!

[blackpoolhibs]

Transvestite in the pub went wild when the equilizer for Sunderland went in, he/she's a big Burnley fan. :faf:

[Donegal Hibby]

I wonder did the ball spin just as he took his eyes off it … should be bread and butter to the keeper though , feel sorry for the guy . It’s the worst position to play when you make a mistake.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Norwich have signed Marcondes

1 year contract with the option of another

[Smartie]

That’s maybe the worst gk mistake I’ve ever seen. Horrendous.

He was surely thinking too hard about what to do when he got the ball to pay attention to actually gathering it in the first place?

Bizarre.

[Broken Gnome]

You could only compare that to Simon Brown at Tynecastle. And you could at least see why he'd made that mistake, the Leeds one is on another level.

the FT whistle would have blown as soon as he kicked it up the park, having said that he probably would have kicked it straight out the pitch, he's been consistent at doing that for the last few seasons though

i did laugh at an article last week where he said he was wanting a clause in any new contract which would allow him to leave for the top league if Leeds failed again this season, no top league side would want him if they bothered to look at the other total ****-up's he's had in recent seasons, he's always been more than capable of one

[Donegal Hibby]

Still think the ball took a change in direction due to the spin on it …

You watch Leeds more than me so I defer to you, but he's always been extremely well thought of, certainly the podcasts i listen to, as one of the best keepers in the world at holding a high line and playing with the ball at his feet. Are you saying his distributions rubbish because i understood that is his main strength?

seriously, read a Leeds fans forum the majority say the same as i've pointed out :greengrin he actually had a decent game last night before what happened, though he did manage to gift a throw-in earlier when he skied it out to a defender 20+ yards away under no pressure whatsoever, i just don't think he is very good with the ball at feet. of course there's plenty clips on twitter with one photo showing some "object" on the pitch with meslier picking it up after the ball went in, could put that goal down to utterly bizarre chain of events(ball deflecting, ball spinning, ball landing on something on the pitch and taking it a different direction) others do clearly show the ball clipping Firpo en route to meslier but it still should have been saved, another clip sends a few leeds fans over the edge where it shows meslier with a big cheesy grin talking to the sunderland manager on the touchline afterwards(his ex boss) :greengrinbut to go back to what you mention about meslier with the ball at his feet trust me there's a lot more out there that do get nervy when meslier has the ball at his feet :agree:

Feel abit sorry for the boy to be honest.

[cabbageandribs1875]

feel for hecky in this game that PNE goal that was called offside in the 1st half by the linesman was really bad especially when it was a set play and the linesman obviously static waiting on the kick getting taken looking along the line. 38 replays show it was clearly onside

FT Burnley 0 PNE 0

[CMac1988]

Roles reversed and a County player is off for that 'headbutt'. Not a fan of players trying to get players sent of by exaggerating the contact but that's pretty much a red anytime I've ever seen it.

Totally agree. Any other team barring those two and the card is out before they reach the crowd.

[GlesgaeHibby]

Absolutely. Pathetic refereeing. It's a really simple rule to apply too. Player leaves field of play, yellow card. Lack of consistency with basic decision making drives me nuts.

[Donegal Hibby]

Scottish football is rotten to the core.

Seen it all before even when we play them in the referees can’t wait to brandish our players cards putting them on a tight rope in games … thought Maclean against the huns was a classic example.

Too wee eh. ***** league etc etc. more heart than anyone in our squad.

County incredibly only had 17% possession. He couldn't have touched the ball much?

When did they change the rules about players throwing themselves into the crowd at goal celebrations? Or did it not apply to Old Firm players? Kuhn should have had a second yellow.

So did the ref.

He didn't. He was bang average and subbed off.

Yup. He done nothing of note really.

I genuinely didn't even realise he was playing until the 45th minute when he gave a foul away. Hardly touched the ball and done nout.

[J-C]

Watching Man U and like us are toothless in the final 3rd, loads of passes and no end product, it's like these very talented players lose any attacking ideas as soon as they sign for them.

The point I was making is that I don't think it's correct to say that Aberdeen haven't faced any tests this season. They've beaten every opponent they've faced which is as much as you can ask and something we've failed to do on all but one occasion in the league.

I also don't agree that a home game against the league's bottom side is their biggest test.

If we beat Hearts, we'll all be happy about beating Hearts. But we can be happy about a result in isolation, while still being ultimately frustrated at our league performances overall. Not all fans are fickle and change their position on the club on a result by result basis.

[SaulGoodman]

(I’m not watching the game) Must have said something to the ref or reacted after getting booked because the stats say he got the first yellow and then second yellow straight after.

Indeed. By all accounts Shankland should have walked too but again it defends on the player.

[Del Boy]

Fair play to Aberdeen, manager has come in and got them playing very effectively with a great team spirit. Be very surprised if they don’t get 3rd.

Shankland is a sneaky thug. For me, he is the most dislikeable person in Scottish football.

They have a decent chance of getting second. Sevco are very poor.

Surely that’s a retrospective red? Or do they happen as VAR makes no
mistakes of course.

Experienced coach and a few good quality additions

Exactly what we needed but didn’t get

Funniest thing is that Hearts have played 8 games. Hibs, St Johnstone, Killie and Dundee all have another game to play.

They had the advantage over us that nobody was giving it large with the 'it takes 3 or 4 windows' nonsense

Maybe it didn’t with the Aberdeen squad. Maybe, just maybe, Aberdeen were not in the exact same situation we were in.

[GreenCastle]

Aberdeen 19 points ahead of Hearts - 6 win swing of games.

It makes things worse for Hibs that Aberdeen have improved so much and Hearts are having a shocker of a start but we are only 3 points ahead and could be on equal points and or below them after the derby.

Yes, but it doesn't need to be that way. We're capable of beating Dundee Utd on their own patch and certainly capable of beating Hearts at ER. But the club needs to focus on our game management skills. Quality of chances matter more than quantity of chances and the way we see games out when we have the upper hand is also pivotal. If we can get it right, we can take all 3 points from Dundee Utd which would give us a significant lift for the derby.

[The Modfather]

It’s not just Aberdeen though. Dundee Utd were a championship team last season, currently they are 5th, a point off 3rd and 7 points above us. Or Motherwell. Currently joint 3rd and 8 points above us having finished below us last season. We seem to make harder work of building and rebuilding squads than other clubs do.

Possible but unlikely.

Let’s see where we are at the end of the season. That is the telling time after all.

The characters running our club have talked themselves into believing amongst themselves that success and improvement like those you mention can only be achieved over however much time they need to buy to save their own skins.

We probably can't act in the time frame others have because we have blown so much money already and have created a bit of inertia as the squad now stands because of the length of some of the contracts we have handed out.

The only thing we do with any urgency is sack managers and marketing to fans.

It is indeed.

I've followed Betis for around 30 years. There is a very good book on their rivalry 'The Frying Pan of Spain'.

One time the Sevilla manager (Juande Ramos) had a bottle of wine thrown over his head at a game. The bottle was frozen as well. :eek:

This one tame so far.

Aberdeen's turnaround has been especially rapid (although they did finish last season quite strongly despite bring bottom six). 13 straight wins is impressive. United look uo have come back better prepared this time round.

Our biggest problem is we, generally, swap one lot of dross for another.

The other is our over reliance upon the loan market as a short-term fix to bail us out of a hole.

Aye but are they sheite to watch, or foul players when they are breaking and strangling the life out of games, if so we want none of that pish at Easter Rd.

We're also sheite to watch and strangle the life out of games by making too many unnecessary passes, allowing the opposition plenty of time to organize themselves off the ball.

I'd much rather see us play sheite the Aberdeen way tbh.

To be fair, they average two goals a game in the league and three goals a game in the cup so they must be doing a bit more than just strangling the life out of things. If we had a manager getting that from the team whilst winning 13 on the bounce, I’m sure we could all put up with a wee bit time wasting or whatever.

[Hibees1973]

It's been like that for decades.

Sevilla seen as the aristos and their owner (Sanchez Pizjuan) in the 1940s - 1960s pulled a few strings with the local council to their benefit. Betis core support was from the poorer south/east part of Seville (Triana). This has kind of diluted over the years with Betis now having the bigger support and just as wealthy as Sevilla. Both clubs however, have had financial/regulation problems in the past.

There was an incident in 1990s when 3 or 4 Sevilla players assaulted some Betis supporters outside a nightclub. Went to court and think some players were fined/suspended.

Volatility reached it's peak in the 1990s/2000s when the two owners Del Nido (Sevilla) & De Lopera (Betis) despised each other to the point the derby games were toxic. Hence the frozen wine bottle thrown over the Sevilla manager's head. Also caused a fair bit of bother between both ultras in the clubs.

It calmed down slightly when a Sevilla player (Puerta) collapsed on the pitch and later died, not at a derby game. This led to a reconcilliation between Del Nido & De Lopera.

It is still the fiercest derby in Spain.

Whatever they're doing, it's effective and it gets results. Where as we carry this myth that our "brand" of football is the right way to play and we're just really really unlucky. When in reality, our brand of football doesn't deliver results and isn't even good to watch in the modern game. There is such a thing as trying to do too much on the ball and sometimes less is more, something that as a club we need to come to terms with.

As I said, if we had a manager getting results, it wouldn’t be an issue. I know some folk like to go back to Jack Ross but he got the sack once the results stopped, for the type of run that sees most managers in trouble (and not just at Hibs).

We rarely have such a manager. It seems that when we bring a manager in, they're instructed on the "Hibs way" of how the team needs to play, rather than being left to implement their own way. As long as we're locked into the same style as a club, we'll ultimately keep getting the same kind of results. The game has moved on over time and we need to move on with it.

Think blackpoolhibs is being sarcastic ie referring to the reasons why some posters wouldn't want McInnes at ER despite him being the most successful Sottish manager in our league by a mile.
