What time is the Scotland v England game on Sunday?

I'm down south as of tomorrow so quite fancy watching it in a pub. If Scotland do the business I'll enjoy it a bit more given the surroundings as well.

5. I think we will at least make it close, maybe even shock them. Scotland first 11 is very good.

Cheers guys. Heading out for lunch at 1 so that works nicely.

Renard was great in Ghost. What a player she has been over the last 8 years.

A couple of thoughts on this:
We didn’t do a sweepstake in work for this...
How many current and ex Hibs players are in the Scotland team? I seem to recognise a lot of names in the squad and the only team I ever keep an eye on are our team.

Sorry not my area of expertise, hopefully someone can help you

Joelle Murray and Jenna Fife are current. Kim Little is ex Hibs, might be others?

I got Germany in the work sweep.

Isn’t a bit sexist they have Dion Dublin in the studio?

Feels like a bit more of an insult to our intelligence than to women. He did invent The Dube though.

They’ve started routinely having female pundits at men’s games. Must be a beeb diversity thing.

Not watching but unless he is eye candy, as he will have limited experience of playing in the female game, will he not be an obligatory token male in the same way as football coverage of the men’s game now seems to have an obligatory female.

Tbh appearance, experience and gender don’t matter as long as there is a worthwhile contribution and if we are ever to progress, it is that ability to contribute not quota filling that should fill positions.

From een article:

Hibs Ladies duo Jenna Fife and Joelle Murray are in the squad while ex-Hibees Lizzie Arnot, Chloe Arthur, Leanne Crichton, Claire Emslie, Kim Little, Shannon Lynn, Kirsty Smith and Caroline Weir are also involved.

10 current and former hibbies in the Scottish Women’s World Cup Squad
You would not think it watching the BBC Documentary it was like Glasgow City invented the women’s game 😁

***BILLYHIBS*** · 07-06-2019 09:03 PM

Dion Dublin is sound
HIBS v Coventry Gordon Hunters Testimonial nothing was too much trouble for him being an ex Man Utd player he would speak to all the kids before and after the match signing autographs
A perfect gentleman

He's just there to remind them where the kitchen is.

Matildas v Italy on Sunday.

Matildas were highly fancied to make the semis at least, but a crazy decision by Football Federation Australia to sack the coach a few months before the tournament has unsettled the whole camp, and who knows how they will now go.

Yeah!
Must be about half the squad came through the Hibs team. I’m sure the Bulls hit Broadcasting Corporation won’t be interested in that.

***Andy Bee*** · 08-06-2019 12:42 AM

Shelley also played for Hibs ladies I'm sure

Big jambo I believe

It was really peculiar that Glasgow Ladies got such a high profile in the BBC doc, you'd think that no other team of consequence existed. Actually Hibs have produced the same amount of women talent as Glasgow.
