Stranraer 0 v Hibs 4 (Doidge, Nisbet, Boyle x 2)

Unbelievable challenge on Porteous there. What are the officials doing?

Boyle should have just let that run through him. Good movement and pass though.

Great ball from Irvine. Surprised Boyle didn’t let it run on and go one on one with keeper though.

It's not like he is wandering about hands on hips looking like he can't be bothered though. There's a reason these chances are falling to him, because his movement is good and he's in the right place. He's not scored the goals he has this season because he's been lucky, it's because he's a good player.

Exactly. I was moaning at his chance too. It’s the totally over the top reactions I found amusing.. “no way” we’re getting a big offer for him now, and “we can do better” etc...

In the vast majority of games he doesn’t bother to turn up until we’re in a comfortable position. Far too many backwards/sideways simple passes for me when he should be looking to play more positively, such a frustrating footballer.

He’s had a poor first half hour and missed a great chance. It happens.

He’s scored 2 goals since Christmas.

Hopefully he doesn’t play like this for the rest of the season, but his poor run of form has lasted a lot longer already than what’s left of the season.

If his form doesn’t pick up over the final few games then I’d expect Clarke will just take another winger rather than Nisbet and use Fraser and Christie as emergency strikers/second strikers.

We are going to win this, but we could have won it already.

Think the Stanraer keeper’s been on the Conrad Logan diet plan

This is embarrassingly one sided now. Goal only a matter of time

Not really, Boyle and Irvine are getting involved and creating, Doig is doing well on the left, Newell again doing nowt as he does most games in the first half. And McGennis not doing much either.

1-0 Doidge. :top marks

Finally, the Doidger!!!



:flag:

Yes. Some finish by big Doidge.

We'll hammer them now.

Thank god for that.

Good goal from Doidge! About time we got ahead.
