Bookies has as at 1/6 to finish 3rd. All those with serious doubts get some money lumped on Aberdeen at 3/1

If you’d given me a choice between the Scottish Cup, League Cup or 3rd place start of this season, I would have said third place. Europa League (or at worst Europa Conference League) group stage football is absolutely massive for Hibs. It would be the biggest cash injection to our club probably ever and the thought of getting to see us against multiple European opponents right up until Christmas is mouthwatering. I really hope we can do it, would make Jack Ross a huge success in toppling Aberdeen in his first season. We aren’t far off Celtic either.

Last three 3rd place finishes:
04-05 average points per game 1.60
00-01 average points per game 1.73
94-95 average points per game 1.47
7 points from every 4 games (average 1.75) is usually enough to secure 3rd. We are bang on that at the moment. Hopefully get ahead of that average before the split, leaving a bit of leeway for a slightly lower average after the split.
Stats looking good but still a long way to go.

One game at a time and all that. Hopefully we’ve had our bad injury run. All about results now. It’s in our hands.

I’ll be very interested to see what the financial incentives are for the UEFA Conference group stages when they are released, presumably a level down from what you get in the Europa League group, but still could be a major boost for us.
Just hope that they don’t delay it a year with Covid still hanging about, that would be bloody annoying.

If nothing else it would have got the same European place as you've described third place as getting anyway.Mon the Hibs.

If you believe we are fundamentally brutal then stick with it.
I think the way that everyone and everything is a disgrace type posts are a bit different to opinions on how we are headed changing game by game. There were a lot of those reactions a few weeks back.
Best to take a bigger picture view on how we are progressing overall rather than reacting and changing your mind after each win or loss.

Whatever happens 3rd or 4th kept back a few annual leave days to cover hopefully another memorable away trip so many great memories met so many good hibbys on those trips problem this time could cost me a few bob as wife daughter and granddaughter want to come if we are first of all allowed to travel and don’t get a crazy location (mind you went to Dnipro that was a journey ) but well worth it here’s hoping

Should also say that this conference league will be anything but diddy.
The europa league will be very high quality next season and a play off win would see us facing some serious euro teams.

And people were happy with 4th a few weeks ago and I was shot down for daring to suggest we should be aiming higher...

I know I’m getting waaaaay ahead of myself here but given the problems travelling this year, a draw against a good English club would be the dream for me. Trip to the new Spurs stadium would be my preference.

Currently West Ham or Everton. Liverpool if teams behind them win their game in hand 😉
Right, probably time to stop thinking about this 😂Last edited by bingo70; 14-02-2021 at 04:29 PM.
