Would anyone take a lucky boring win in that cup final v Celtic?

Have you just asked if anyone would take winning the cup? Bizarre.

No chance , if it’s not in our attack minded , play with flair, remind us of Brazil 1970 way - I’m throwing my ST back at the after match party !!

I wouldn't care if we had no attempts on goal and an own goal won it.

It's a cup final, does it matter how we win?

[Sir David Gray]

I have no interest in how we play in the cup final - as long as we win it.

I don't think that detracts from the wider complaints regarding our general underperforming in the league.

[MWHIBBIES]

Only if we win all games either side, playing like Brazil but also being tough as nails.

It’s a bizarre attempt at trolling posters who aren’t happy with the way we’re playing. Not that playing boring football and winning a cup and playing boring football and winning 4 points out of 24 can be compared mind you.

Think the OP is trying to make a point

I’ve been looking for positive omens…

when we beat them in the 72 league cup final we had finished third the previous season and suffered a desperately disappointing scottish cup final defeat. We had also suffered a narrow and unlucky home defeat to the huns a couple of weeks before the Celtic final (which was shortly before Christmas).

Yep, I can’t see any way we’re not winning this cup on the 19th. And I would take any type of victory.

I'd take 1-0, no shots on target own goal winner for us, with 19% possession for us and 25 shots on target for them.
I'd rather win 6-0 with a commanding performance but we all know the chances of that are slimmer.

[blackpoolhibs]

So if we win a boring cup final, with an own goal, everything will be hunky dory.

No. Unless we score 8 next home game and 7 at New Year

No, we need to show consistency in the league and genuine green shoots that we will be in the hunt for top four at the end of the season.

Attendances show that people just don’t want to watch this Hibs team just now. We’re not far away from ticket season time and that’s alarming.

[Hermit Crab]

Given our dreadful league form a cup final win would only paper over cracks. Theres 3 games before the final, time to get some form but I just can't see it happening.

Not if this league form continues. Winning the cup by beating Celtic in the final would be magic, but we need points now. I think the next three league games are massive for the manager.

So it's a myth that winning a cup and finishing middle of the table would be acceptable then.

We won’t finish mid-table if the current league form continues

The latter. As usual.

I would imagine the vast majority of us would accept a mid table finish for the League Cup. The problem is we are currently experiencing relegation form, not mid table. Four points from eight games needs improving upon very quickly. A few wins would make a massive difference.

If we average the same number of points as our last three games (current form) over the remainder we will finish on 42 points. That will comfortably see us mid table. Fact.

What about if we use the 4 from 24? Or the 19 from 45?

Why would we? We could use the points from the first half dozen games and we’d probably be nearer third. That’s pointless. Pardon the pun.

I will have £500 bet with you, to any charity you want to mention that we will not getb relegated and be nowhere near a relegation spot.

Why wouldn’t we? Why just choose the last 3 games?
