    Griffiths

    We have really missed him the last few games IMO, looking forward to him being back in the team next week. No more gestures please Leigh, we need you on the park.

    Agreed.

    Him and Doyle together is something I'd like to see again.

    Hopefully he's learned his lesson at the 3rd time of asking.

    Seen him in the Lower West today with his bird. Think he was giving someone the two finger salute right enough

    We missed him today right enough. GOC and Doyle have no pace, and poor movement

    Should be back, missed 2 league games and the cup game.

    He's our best forward by a mile.

    O'Connor quite clearly has other things on his mind.

    I think he would have done well in todays game, a lot of balls getting thown into the box, cant help think with the stength of his movement he may have made that little difference. Would like to see him and O'Connor up front.

    GOC no pace and movement but whilst Doyle ain't the fastest his movement is really good IMO
    This is how it feels

    I agree and not to mention GOC's inability to take a decent first touch and hold a ball up, Doyle does give some excellent movement and works hard, and if you watch him he makes some intelligent runs and gets into some good positions. No the quickest tho I agrfee.

    BTW I thought O'Dononan looked pretty quick when he came on, done pretty well I though.

    Griffiths should come in next week for O'Connor, O'Connor has offered little or nothing in the last three weeks that I've seen. Doyle may be a little lightweight (certainly something that cannae be said about GOC) and maybe no the fastest but I think Doyle offers good movement and should partner Sparky next week.

    Will Griffiths walk straight back in to the team though, maybe Fenlon is still pissed of with Leigh for getting suspended for so many games and feels he needs to learn to behave himself before he gets to start games again, if he doesn't start against celtc then he only has himself to blame.

    Fenlon might be still piseed off with Griffiths, but Hibs need Griffiths back in the team. We've done great defensively to only concede one goal in last 2 games, but we've only scored 1 goal in those two games, we desperately need goals in our team. I think to keep Leigh out of the Hibs team would be cutting off our noses to spite our face. We need him back there.

    He will be on the bench next week. Doyle has very good movement and a good first touch. GoC is all over the place at the moment. His fitness is only worse than his first touch

    I would say yes.... Apart from his moments of madness... He was showing signs of what he is capable of... That with his hard work chasing and harrying gives and offers loads more than GOC.

    We will need that next week against Smellic.

    Three obvious changes for next week which will make our first eleven pretty strong;

    McPake for O'Hanlon
    Soares for Spoony (although TBF hes playing better)
    and Griffiths for O'Connor.

    We'll give Celtc a game.

    The concern is however that his spontaneous, reflex reaction to being goaded by both sets of supporters might prove too difficult to control. There's an easy solution to the problem with our own fans but he'll now be an easy target for opposition fans.

    It has to be goc next week with griffiths Doyle is to lightweight and was no threat whatsoever yesterday he needs to get himself into the gym. We need to go with the best we have got next week and love him or hate him goc is a better player at this stage than Doyle. I also thought o'donovan looked good yesterday

    Cant see Gaz being dropped for next week against celtc, probaly unfairly it will be Doyle who will drop out if Griffiths is to come straight back in to the team.

    I hope you are right, a quick glance at the league table would suggest otherwise though.
