Disliked Hibs XI

[LNHibs]

My mate and I were discussing players at Hibs we just couldn’t take to and this was the XI we came up with


Maxwell

Docherty
Nelson
Forster
McGivern

Tudor Jones
Haalberg

Drey Wright
Kamberi
Soares

Collins

(Limited myself to only a couple of the 5-1 team while all could be valid)

[LEaston87]

I liked Hallberg.

I’d chuck in Demetri Mitchell and Islam Feruz.

[Unseen work]

Really surprised about a couple of those!

Forster I liked when he initially broke through (clearly recent news completely changes my mind on him)

Docherty I liked because I thought he was a good player, it was his antics after that made me think less of him

Hallberg just seemed a good guy and player imo

Kamberi I absolutely loved during that first loan and thought we’d won a watch getting him permanently.

Agree about Maxwell, Nelson, Tudor Jones and Soares. I’d add;

Scott Robertson
Paul Heffernan
Rowan Vine
Gary Deegan
Matt Done
Sean O’Hanlon
Roy Odonovan


Never disliked any of them, just never took to them or wasn’t bothered about them. Most from a certain era which says it all

[Tambo]

Middleton deserves a starting spot.

Oof. A reminder of bleak times with that list of yours.

Haalberg really? I actually thought he was pretty decent. Definitely not worthy of a place in this team anyway. Guess that's opinions for you!

[we are hibs]

Tom James and Josh Vela were 2 abysmal signings.


Vela was just miles off the pace with everything and James refused to tackle anyone.

Shefki Kuqi could barely move by the time he arrived at Hibs. I remember up at pittodrie he must've had a 10 yard head start on an Aberdeen player who caught up with him with ease

Who was the wee Portuguese player? Pretty handy on his day. Liked to give the fans stick in the press. Didn't like him.

Can't agree with Agathe, thought he could have been tremendous for us if he'd stayed longer. Bit harsh on Chris Killen too IMHO.

[EdinMike]

Definitely didn’t mind Hallberg, always kept a wee eye out while he was at St Johnstone !

[DH1875]

Is it while at Hibs are after they have left? Some of the names being mentioned just don't make sense if folk are saying they were disliked while playing for the club.

[Since452]

Danny Swanson.

Just couldn't take to him. Pretending to be a Hearts fan. Just weird.

[Pagan Hibernia]

Jake Doyle-Hayes. Never really took to him at the time he was with us. Can't say the passing of time or recent events have changed that.

[blackpoolhibs]

Ian Murray, the attendance at his testimonial said it all 🤣

[duffers]

Fraser Mullen would be in there for me.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Graeme Smith

Michael Hart
Michael Nelson
Ryan McGivern
Demi Mitchell

Josh Vela
Jake Doyle Hayes
Owain Tudor-Jones

Sylvester Jasper
James Scott
Matt Done

Manager probably has to be Terry Butcher but an un-honourable mention for Nick Montgomery who can be his assistant with Billy Brown.

[Onceinawhile]

If it's when they played for us, it's harsh. If it's based on crimes that may have been allegedly committed (may actually have been convicted, but I don't remember),then he definitely gets in.

[BoomtownHibees]

John Rankin

[Hibee Daft]

Burisik

Matt Doherty
Will Fish
Ian Murray
Demetri Mitchell

Kevin Thomson
Michael Stewart

Kris Commons

Aiden Mcgeady
Tavares

Kamberi

[sauzee1989]

Aiden mgeady forgot all about him. Hated him when he was here. Showed us no respect even in interviews when he played here.

[JohnM1875]

Agree, he's a wee gimp.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Couldn't take to Jackson Irvine whatsoever. And a piss poor cup final performance still annoys me

Same for Jamie Murphy tbh

[Auckland Hibs]

Paul Hartley = ****

[Heisenberg]

Simon Brown

Matt Doherty
Jordon Forster
Michael Nelson
Ryan McGivern
Pa Kujabi

Owain Tudur Jones
Josh Vela
Tom Soares

Rowan Vine
Danny Haynes

Management team - Terry Butcher assisted by Derek Adams

[EGL2000]

Couldn't take to Jackson Irvine whatsoever. And a piss poor cup final performance still annoys me

Same for Jamie Murphy tbh

He is probably up there with the biggest disappointment. A really good player who for whatever reason just didn't really get going for us. Seems a really nice guy as well.

[Mon Dieu4]

Gary Caldwell x 11

[Centre Hawf]

There's a whole host of guys I dislike after playing for us. But not many ever get me that worked up while still playing for us. I'll keep this to how I felt about them in the moment of watching them play -

Bursik

Murdoch
McGivern
McPake

Done
Kerr
Tudor-Jones
Ewan Henderson
Alan O'Brien

Danny Haynes
Heffernan

[Hibs Go Bragh]

Some of them have been so bad I can't even remember their names but remember the moments that made me dislike them!

Who started right back in the 4-3 Falkirk game at Hampden? Match fixing levels of performance! Also whoever absolutely sh*t the bed pulling out of a tackle at the very end of the Hamilton play off game? That might have been Tudor Jones the more I think about it?

Tim Clancy I think. Another that's worthy of anyone's team.

I remember once a horrible 0-0 game against Aberdeen (might have been DM first in charge of them) on like a Monday night or something. Late into injury time and it's a last chance for an attack, everyone starts to charge up the field as we look to get it forward, and Clancy gets the ball down the right hand side and proceeds to run it out of play for a throw in somehow. Never seen so many people just up and leave in sheer anger.

Atrocious footballer.

It was Tudor Jones, in front of the east,if he doesn't bottle the tackle, we stayed up.
***** bag😑💚

Signed for Hibs knowing he was crocked and on his way out. Nice wee pay day. Not his fault. I blame the club for thinking he was worth a contract.

[LNHibs]

Bit of both probably :confused: Probably opinions been swayed by certain things since they played, a few were just guys i didn't rate whatsoever :rolleyes:

That miss in the cup final man, should have been subbed straight after it.

[Ribs1875]

Here are a few who spring to mind

Doherty (I think of him as an ex hearts player)
Maybury
Keenan
Makalambay
Francomb
Zibbi
Edge
Rankin
Cregg
Nelson

[BILLYHIBS]

Looked up Wage Thief in the Urban Dictionary and the name Tudur-Jones appeared

Boasting on his podcast that he knew his legs were gone when he signed for us

Should be ashamed of himself

Said he was half way to Carlisle as soon as the final whistle went against Hamilton didn’t hang about

[Green Reaper]

I'd have to stick Ray Wilkins in there

[Michael]

Why do so many dislike the Gambian Roberto Carlos? Wasn't very memorable other than his free kick attempt

[flash]

Burisik

Matt Doherty
Will Fish
Ian Murray
Demetri Mitchell

Kevin Thomson
Michael Stewart

Kris Commons

Aiden Mcgeady
Tavares

Kamberi

Absolutely your opinion but Will Fish is a niche dislike.

[flash]

Did he not concede a penalty in the final that has no name.

[erin go bragh]

Michael Stewart
Paul Hartley

Chris Killen
Eammon Bannon
Josh Vela

Agathe and Killen should be no where near this list unless they slept with your Misses 😁

Colin Calderwood and Bobby Williamson as joint Directors of Football in this side too

Ooft, now we’re talking.

Ben Kensell CEO.

Bobby is too good to be in with Butcher and Monty.

Olafur Gottskalksson

Owain Tudur Jones

11 gentlemen I'd happily erase from my Hibs supporting memories!

Blame Butcher then. He managed him at ICT, he must have known his condition.

Wilkins
Tudor Jones

Irvine (second one)
James Scott

Manager - Butcher

This lot beat some stiff opposition.

Tudor Jones was more interested in golf than football. Roaster.

[kentao]

Brian Hamilton, James Collins and Kevin Nesbit would all find a starting spot in my team.

[Since452]

Jorge Carlos

[Davy Mac]

That roaster Alan O'Brien, total bottle merchant and a complete shanbag. Woeful, could have played better myself.

[superbam]

Can only really think of Doherty, Wilkins, Mueller and McGivern, Kamberi of course. Not including ***** players, only legitimate ********s. Gary Caldwell can take the remaining places on the team.

[darwenhibby]

We played St Johnstone away first game of the season a couple of years ago
There was a picture of Nisbet McGeady and 3 others drinking in the Market Glasgow
I always felt they should have been at the game
Never took to mcgeady cos of that and Nisbet to an extent

[He's here!]

Brian Hamilton does not merit being bracketed alongside some of the here today gone tomorrow dreadful signings included. Gave very good service to Hibs, but was a boo boy target very much like Joe Tortolano and Paul Kane.

[jacomo]

That roaster Alan O'Brien, total bottle merchant and a complete shanbag. Woeful, could have played better myself.


I never disliked the guy. Really wanted him to click but it never did. We were desperate for a good attacking threat back then.

[pacorosssco]

Middleton deserves a starting spot.

Yes didn't want to be at Hibs and showed.

[pacorosssco]

Can't agree with Agathe, thought he could have been tremendous for us if he'd stayed longer. Bit harsh on Chris Killen too IMHO.


Agathe was tremendous in short spell

[Smartie]

Are we not due another Kevin Thomson debate about now?

Got told off for referring to him as Katie so I’m out. :greengrin

[silverhibee]

I would say Hibs done more for him. :cb

[SteveHFC]

I’d end up getting banned on here, if I I said how I really feel about Doherty. :greengrin

[Michael]

Did he not concede a penalty in the final that has no name.

I'd erased that game from my mind in fairness

[Real Emerald]

Got to say Pat Fenlon was guilty of signing some of the worst players I’ve ever seen at Hibs with the odd exception.

Fenlon should have been sacked after that final. That's my most controversial opinion.:greengrin

That had been erased from the memory, Malmo what was that???

[lucky]

I can't believe no one has mentioned Edwin De Graff. He ran like he had a fridge tied to him. Possibly the slowest and worst footballer to play at Hibs in the last 20 years

[21.05.2016]

Will probably get slaughtered for this but Anthony Stokes.

Forever grateful for that unreal display on 21.05.2016, he was unstoppable that day and won us the cup. But a dislikable character and towards the end treated the club with no respect, turnign up late all the time to training, fights on the training ground with management etc. Acted like Billy big baws, never grew up and thought he could do whatever the hell he liked. I can't imagine someone like that would be well liked in the dressing room either.

As I say, legend for his heroics in the final but can't say I think much of him as a person and he left the club under a cloud. Shame because with his experience he could have been such an asset to have around the club if he just had a better attitude.

Some of the names on this thread still give me nightmares! Billy Brown, arrogant hearts ******* should never have been anywhere near Hibs. An absolute bellend of the highest order.

[QUOTE=Real Emerald;7983512]Got to say Pat Fenlon was guilty of signing some of the worst players I’ve ever seen at Hibs with the odd exception.[/QUOTE

have to agree but he did take us to consecutive cup finals and was honest and said he wasn’t man to take club forward mad times and Butcher signed some belters as well

[jacomo]

Pat had little support or money, and an uphill task.

Likeable guy though.

[Northernhibee]

Remember hearing that our scouting back then was a shambles too.

Dempster coming in was the best thing that could have happened to us. I genuinely think Pat may have done well if he was here the following season as things at the club were beginning to work.

[Since452]

Pat had little support or money, and an uphill task.

Yup. Was great to see Pat in the Hibs end at Hampden when we won the cup. He had some honking results which he'll unfortunately be remembered for but I just couldn't dislike the guy.

[ekhibee]

Can't agree with Agathe, thought he could have been tremendous for us if he'd stayed longer. Bit harsh on Chris Killen too IMHO.

Killen couldn't wait to leave Hibs, despite the fact Hibs took good care of him considering how often he was on the treatment table. He was offered a good deal by Collins to stay (while he was still injured) at the same time he was talking to Cardiff City who paraded him as a new signing only for Celtic to step in at the last minute and snatch him away from them.

[Smartie]

Yup. Was great to see Pat in the Hibs end at Hampden when we won the cup. He had some honking results which he'll unfortunately be remembered for but I just couldn't dislike the guy.

He was very well received that day and seemed to be quite surprised by it.

A decent and humble man who was dealt a terrible hand as Hibs manager.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Eduardo Hurtado. Sure he was meant to be a replacement for Latapy.

[Baader]

Eduardo Hurtado. Sure he was meant to be a replacement for Latapy.

Hurtado was a striker. More likely to fill the Mixu role. Didn't find him particularly dislikable, just crap!

[BILLYHIBS]

Thought we signed Hurtado as a mate for De La Cruz and Andrews to keep Latapy in fags 😀

[eastmainsmsh]

Eduardo Hurtado. Sure he was meant to be a replacement for Latapy.

Mind Tanks Debut maybe at home to Motherwell ? And Donald park was firing crosses in Zitelli was Overhead and scissor kicking them in while Hurtado the ball was just hitting off him lol

[brianmc]

Haha very good Mikey.
Away back to whining on Sportsound or pretending to be a political intellectual on X.

[Winston Ingram]

John Rankin

This. Couldn’t stand him. He thought he was Glenn Hoddle. Loved to attempt a long pass but nearly always duck-hooked it 30 yards away from its target. Then after the ‘squiggler ‘ attempted to shoot every time he got a sight of goal no matter how far out he was.

Did he score two squigglers for us? I can only remember one but I’ve something in my head telling me he done it twice..
