lewis Stevenson

**Torto7062** · 27-04-2014 02:45 PM

Sorry if already been asked...

Is he injured ?

***hibee_girl*** · 27-04-2014 02:45 PM

No, he was on the bench.

**S4uzee** · 27-04-2014 03:10 PM

Find it astonishing Craig played ahead of him. You need guts in a derby something Lewis has and Craig couldn't buy

***dmc1875*** · 27-04-2014 03:10 PM

He should have been at LB with McGivern moved in and Forster out at RB

Butcher said dome pish about being worried about the diagonal ball to Paterson marauding down the wing......aye, ok terry

We've been winning so many games with Lewis in the team right enough.

Thought Hibs showed fight today but poor marking at two set plays cost us. Don't think Stevenson would have made much of a difference either way.

**~~SouthamptonHibs~~** · 27-04-2014 04:17 PM

Stevenson wouldn't of made a difference today as he adds offers nothing going forward. He's a solid defensive player

**IberianHibernian** · 27-04-2014 04:19 PM

Shows how much we`ve dropped when people suggest we`d have been better with Lewis . I actually thought one reason for improvement compared with recent games was partly because he didn`t play . What about Taiwo and Cairney ? Injured , suspended or just unlucky in the weekly drawing names from hat ?

Thats a load of bull!

Ok he has played in the games we have lost but in how many of those games has he played badly????

Butcher consistently moves him out of the team to accommodate others who are not even as good as he is and i don't see you questioning their capabilities of what they have added to the team?

He played McGivern to eliminate the threat of Paterson marauding down that wing, only to see him score twice!!! Butcher wouldn't play McPake as he was not sure of his fitness for a game like this despite playing in the under 20s twice? Yet he had no doubts about shunting Lewis to the bench to accommodate Robertson and all he did today was give the ball away and get booked?

Too many of the players today are still giving the ball away and standing waiting on someone else mopping up their mistakes just as well Kevin Thomson did that for them today.

Today we needed players with commitment and guile and Lewis has both as well as a big heart and would have run himself into the ground.

Im sorry but i cannot agree with your sentiments about Lewis, you may not agree with mine either but thats what being a football supporter is all about aint it!!!

**Black Kyle** · 27-04-2014 06:36 PM

For effort, attitude and reliability / consistency of performance, usually defensive, Lewis walks 'player of the season' for me.

**B.H.F.C** · 27-04-2014 06:46 PM

Don't think he would have made any difference today. He does a fairly solid job but we actually were pretty solid today. Lost two goals that his height would have done nothing to prevent.

Totally Agree with all of the above.

I'll stick my neck out even further and say
I would have him as our best player all season.
Fenlon played him out of position weekly.
Give me more like him and K.T in our team
Instead of deed horses like Collins , McGivern
Neilson and Maybury any day of the week

He might have stopped the ball getting swung in.

From set pieces??

**mmmmhibby** · 27-04-2014 07:01 PM

How bad have we become if Lewis Stevenson is being touted as our Player of the Year?

Honestly believe the club should scrap the awards this year. Commend the 20s on doing well but not one player deserves any credit in the first team.

It's not rubbish - the boy got 2 goals from set pieces, beating our centre halts in the air. Imagine how much worse it could've been if they had the option to drop a diagonal onto his head if Lewis had been at lb.

The diagonal onto the full back was always one of the biggest complaints when Lewis played regularly there. We used to have arguments about him being too small.

That's true. Our rock solid defence was in evidence today right enough.

***snooky*** · 27-04-2014 08:28 PM

Lewis has been through it all with us from MOTM in the Killie cup final to the barrel bottom of today.
I hope when he retires he writes his memoirs - it'll be a very interesting read especially if it's a no-holds-barred effort.
It would be interesting to know what his personal perspective is on all the good, bad & ugly players and managers that have come and gone during his tenure at ER.
I reckon this tome would be a best seller & possibly more lucrative than a testimonial match.

Hey Louie, I hope you're keeping notes, wee man.

***erin go bragh*** · 27-04-2014 08:38 PM

Yes Stevenson should have played left back . Mcpake should have played centre half beside Mcgivern , with Forster right back . Forster and Nelson must be the poorest centre half pairing in the league . Forster is young but fs you have to win your headers in your own box .

Agree about them being worst pairing and as soon as he thinks McPake is fit enough he will bring him in .But In last few months Foster is out top scorer is he not and also the one chopped off against them last time
