Has Maloney used tonight as a shop window?

Not sure if a shop window, but I think he's testing out what he's got in what's really just a free hit.

Scott's not ours to sell (thankfully) but take your point.

The word I just used to a message I sent my mate, two good results against tough teams, up against Celtic tonight away free hit.. game not expecting to win

[Coco Bryce]

Think it's backfired on him big time if so.

Not in my opinion. They are just about all players that we could expect to play a part tonight, whether from the start or off the bench. Scott is the only one we haven’t really seen play recently, Wright had a good game against United and many would have argued his place tonight and the others play about every game when available?

You missed Scott Allan from the list but same as above applies.

Don’t see how bringing the subs (that are considered fit and ready) we have available onto the pitch is anything to do with shop windows.

[LunasBoots]

The job is a long term project, not expecting miracales from the start.

A league game is never a free hit. Plenty to play for - keep winning run going for starters. Could you imagine any top manager saying to his players its a free hit?!

Scott getting on ahead of Doidge the strangest.

Doidge surely away soon, which I can't say I'd be happy about.

Agreed, there's a place for a player like Doidge in any team

No it's not.
Wright has been a disaster and Newell and JDH are never going to contribute much.
Sell them back to Rotherham and St Mirren.

[Greenio]

Apparently Scott has been sharp in training so given a chance tonight.

For who Edinburgh City?

[JohnM1875]

Again, thought Wright wasn't too bad at all. Same with JDH towards the later part in the game when it was already done.

Is Doidge out of contract this summer? If so I'll guess he's off.

Might be wrong but I thought he'd signed a new contract.

[Unseen work]

For me he started what he thought was his best eleven and 65-70 minutes in he realised alot were having poor games and he thought it was a good chance to try others out.

I don’t believe for a second he thought it was a free hit, doesn’t strike me as that type of guy. He would have been wanting a result.

He realised the guys weren’t going it so thought he would give others a chance which is fair

Interesting Doidge still never got on. Unless he knows what he’s got with him and is happy. Would explain why Mueller never got on too.

If said top manager was up against a side whose budget and wages are 10 times the amount he's got to spend then yes I can

I know we’re your coming from but as a hibs fan just feels that way, now I think about it SM wound have had game plan which didn’t work when KN missed and Campbell gave that ball away.but just too many people with depressing thoughts

You're spot on. Signed an extension late last year until 2024. Really surprised he didn't feature at all tonight though.

[Hulk1875]

No manager I hope would be like go out do what use can if lose we lose haha. Once again coming from not too confident hibs fan from experience

[Hibee Mac]

His subs and first 11 certainly had some bizarre choices in there. I'd like to think he didn't expect Doig at LCB and Campbell at LWB to work. With Stevenson on the bench and Doidge not getting any game time, even Scott getting on ahead of him...

I'm fully onboard with Maloney trying a new style of play and he needs time and new players, I just don't quite get some of his decisions today.

Agree with you, some of the decisions were strange but he had to start with a bad hand of cards. The defence looked hopeless at first but Rocky came on to a game and it got a bit better. Nisbet was terrible again and it’s worrying that Diodge or Mueller didn’t get on. Mueller is a real concern as there is absolutely no reason he shouldn’t be fit enough for a 20 minute run out.

We lost 2 nil at Celtic with huge team absences so it’s not the end of the world.

Second game in a row that Drey Wright has been decent and shown that he may still yet have a place in the team and although JDH and Newell can't play together because they're too similar, they also both are better when they have a player like Magennis next to them that can drive forward whilst they retain and recycle possession.

Murphy for all I lambast him was OK tonight.

[JamesHFC]

Tonight should have been about having the best possible team out there at all times. Cove Rangers on Thursday is an opportunity to give fringe players a shot at impressing.
