Prior to the Hanlon era I don’t think it was a thing at all, with plenty of right footed players being accomplished at LCB including many at Hibs.


As you say though - to see a young Scot play so well against someone so highly regarded was great to see.

Agree with you, i didn’t think it was a thing until sports media told me it was a thing and then i realised, yes it is a thing :greengrin. Whatever you thought of Hanlon he was just more natural moving the ball out to wide positions partly because he had that natural advantage on that side. Theres a good argument that itsa rare position because kids are pigeonholed into playing on the flanks and so never learned the position. At the top level, since Alaba and Koulibaly got old and went to the petrostate for mo money respectively, theres just not that many really good ones out there.

Did England win the other night? Sky not giving anything away 🙄

Decided to go to the Dunfermline Vs Airdrie game later with my daughter. Not sure it's going to be a classic tbh.

He didn’t start for Canada. Got subbed on in the 78th minute

Former Hibs legend Dmitri Mitchell now on the park for Exeter City v Lincoln.

What a great job Michael O'Neill is doing with the Northern Ireland team. He has completely rebuilt it from the successful side that reached the euros 8 years ago (also under his management).

I've always wanted him to manage Hibs at some point. He was one of my favourite players in the 90s

Livingston 1 v 0 Falkirk .

He was in the running years back before allegedly seeing his hopes scuppered by a certain manager saying certain things about him.

He was subsequently offered the chance to succeed Strachan as Scotland boss but turned it down. Not sure if the Hibs thing soured his views about working here.

A name I had completely forgotten. Another waste of a signing and there’s been many

The guy was poor for the whole game, surprised that he didn't get subbed.

1-0 Germany, Musiala

Watching Holland v Hungary on YouTube

Someone on one of the benches is down, nae idea what happened. Big circle of staff surrounding them to block the camera

Think it’s the Hungarian bench. Commentators haven’t said a thing. Looks very serious though
