Official match thread - St Mirren 0 V Hibernian 1 FT

[Albanian Hibs]

Well since it's after noon on the day of the game and no one has started an official match thread I thought I would give it a go as I have never done one before.

I'm heading off in a wee while to pick the old man up before heading along the M8.

Any team news? Whats the weather like in Paisley?

Are you on the mickey take?? So that's a left footed midfielder at right back and a left footed winger on the right wing??

A long day ahead methinks.


EDIT - Pic removed as it'll slow down this thread later!

[Brightside]

Williams, Stevenson, McPake, Hanlon, McGivern, Done, Taiwo, Claros, Robertson, Cairney, Griffiths

Glad that doyle is out. but really cant understand robertson being in there.

[LancashireHibby]

Reasonably mild afternoon, just walked up to the ground to collect our tickets after a couple of pints near Gilmour St...and walked back virtually in to the centre to find a pub!

[SouthamptonHibs]

We are doomed now,I just put Hibs to win and Hearts to loose on my coupon

[Vault Boy]

Good team selection in my opinion.

Substitutes: Murdoch, Doyle, Wotherspoon, Maybury, Handling, Caldwell, Forster

Forster seems to have caught Fenlon's eye of recent.

[Darren1875]

Stevenson right back, are we looking for trouble

Remember you can use i-spy to follow the updates folks. If it gets slow towards full time it's likely that guests will be booted!

There's nobody else and he does fine at left back so why not? Should be solid enough defensively if not much of a support going forward...

[MWHIBBIES]

Stevenson MOTM in a comfortable Hibs win

[Brightside]

Stevenson one of our best performers of recent months. Damn shame he is rewarded with the rb role. Him and mcGivern overlapping on the left works very well for me.

[adhibs]

looks a decent team, hopefully robertson contributes more than on monday

I was only messing... Yet, Pat appears to be doing just that!!
I despair, I really do.

Stevenson is a player who does the basic things very well - his touch, passing and decision making. Although he would prefer to defend the left flank, the only real barrier to him being able at right back is mental. However, Lewis isn't a confident player, and prone to playing within himself, so let's hope that things don't get the better of him.

If the laddie had some belief in himself, a bit of the swagger that the generation of youth players before him had, he would have gone so far by now.

A bit of the "above the norm" talent that they had as well would probably have helped. I like Lewis, and he stands out in the sea of dross (or rather dross playing style that we seem to have reverted to over the past 6 weeks) as he actually tends to look up and tries to get things moving forwards, towards the oppositions goal (Deegan: take note).

His lack of a wow factor means that Hibs is as high as he'll go though.

Stevenson at RB

2-0 St Mirren. Both goals coming from our right.

Does anyone think we'll win? really?

It's not that outlandish a suggestion is it? It's St Mirren we're playing, not Barcelona FFS.

Can we not at least wait until we're losing before launching the toys?

[Diclonius]

Stevenson was better than Maybury at right back against St Johnstone.

[EH6 Hibby]

Is the game on the radio or is it just Open All Mics?

[Northern Hibby]

Just heard team not what I expected!

[markom127]

I really hope Stevenson has the best performance he has ever had at Hibs, just to shut all you c**ts up. Why would you not try and think of the positives of the team **** sake!
