tartofmidlothian Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Let's face it, we're all hoping that last week was all about setting up the money spinning replay and that we'll batter them 8-0 this time. Meanwhile back in the real world, it'll be a tough game but we'll have enough to win as long as we play better than last time. Especially our strikers. Any win will do. I'll go 1-0 to us, Goncalves midway through the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kila Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Need to have a fast start and get an early goal. 2-1 at HT and 5-1 FT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlimOzturk Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Win and season still has some meaning Lose and Cathro and the management team will probably suffer the same fate Robbie and and Co did. They will never be forgiven Edit to add... I am not one of the later. Just pointing out how important winning this will be to his tenure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 My fear is that too many folk seem to think we're going to win this purely by virtue of a better pitch at Easter Road. We must not fall in to that trap. Better pitch or otherwise, we're going to need to have a team who are right up for this and aren't afraid to go there and win by any means necessary. The 'it'll be fine, we'll rock up there to their pristine pitch and brush them aside whilst playing some beautiful football' theory doesn't really wash with me. Go there and absolutely batter them please. Whatever it takes to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsalldothebeattie Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I think it's going to be another tough game both sides will be fired up for it. Given ER is a sell out the atmosphere should be electric and give both sets of players the lift to perform. I'm going to say we are going to edge it 1-0 or 2-1 and it's not going to be won til very late on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Title, tsk tsk. Heart of Midlothian. Anyhoo. 3-1 us Or 1-1 and penalties. If we can feckin score first we can control the game and play our way. They offered very little at Tynecastle, we need to ensure 100% effort and be clinical. Nae missing penalty's if given the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August Landmesser Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 2-1 JTs, Isma & Djoum. Bartley to be sent off, but to take his time leaving the pitch, as he just likes staying (in the best Hibs tradition). Also, if we get a penalty, give it to Isma and he can put the laces through it. No more of this side-footing malarkey... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartleys_Jam_Tart Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I wasn't particularly confident ahead of last Sunday, and I can't say I'm particularly confident now. As has been previously stated, we need to make sure we are completely up for this game. The players need to show they understand what a cup Derby means, and need to be ready to get stuck in. We do that, we'll win. I fear we'll start slowly again. If we do I can't see us coming away happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KineticBeat Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The first goal is crucial. If Hibs get it, they'll sit back and Hearts will struggle to break them down - as shown by our last two games. If we get it, Hibs have to come out and actually try to play football which will work in Hearts' advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mullen13 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Why the negativity? The last 2 games have been played on WW1 no-mans land and we have a far superior squad. They have struggled against championship teams (as have we) but I feel we have the better potential. Let's try not to let this one become a battle again.

If you have seen us play, (apart from the Rangers game) recently we have not been doing all that great. No urgency from the players - they will just see this as another game. This time last year, many of them had probably never heard of Hearts! Hope I am wrong, but can see this being another struggle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i8hibsh Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Here is how I see this for what it?s worth ? I can?t be bothered with the usual abuse so lay off please, I have a right to my opinion like everyone else. I just don?t see how this game will be much different to the home tie apart from the state of the pitch. Lennon will have his team fired up and they will stick to the game plan ? stop us playing. Our derby inexperience on the pitch and in the dugout will be exposed yet again. Quality will not come into this game (if it did then we would win hands down). A 1 nil victory either way, but my gut tells me to the home team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1953 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 This could really go either way and will be very close, Hibs will be fired up for it as they don't want their cup taken away, especially by us. Like the first game it won't be pretty but although the first game was crap we were the only team who looked like we might score and had the best chances so I think we'll scrape through this time, 2-1!

Musemic Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 One-off match likely to be decided on a piece of individual magic or a horrible mistake. I think we have more players who are likely to produce the bit of magic but do worry that our goalie is the one most likely to make that horrible mistake. Hope not though.
