cosanostra Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 They're in the Championship with 8 shit teams and 1 average team. They're bound to win most of their home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh ah grantona Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 They're in the Championship with 8 shit teams and 1 average team. They're bound to win most of their home games. Exactly this!!! What they are doing is nothing out of ordinary add in Dundee Utd by far the worst SPL side so not to difficult to see a Hibs win at home ( they did also beat Ross county last year who were bottom at the time) The Aberdeen result really was the only eye opener and even then its a 1 of cup game at Home something our manager should have used to put us in a semi final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wavydavy Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 At the risk of being lambasted I actually think Stubbs has done a very good job at Easter Rd. He comes over as not the brightest but he has put together a decent squad of young players and although their nearest challengers outside Rangers have slightly weakened teams from last season Hibs are still way ahead of Falkirk, QOTS etc. Stubbs has worked with Martinez who rates him highly don't forget so the guy is no mug despite his appearance and articulation. AB has a high regard for Dempster too don't forget and she has worked away behind the scenes plugging the gaps in what was a sinking ship. I for one would like to see Hibs back in the top league with us and getting back to exciting derbies where we can once again see just how good both our teams are. Despite what people say on here, I honestly don't think there would be much between us. I've got the tin hat at the ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollyWolly Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 You know (see what I did there) you can say what you like about the level they are playing at and how good or otherwise they are and how good a coach Stubbs is, but I like his enthusiasm and his positivity. They try and give everyone a game and they are positive and attacking. Not something you always see from Robbie Neilson. Easter Road isn't a fortress by any means but they've had a pretty decent week and he's got every right to talk it up and keep the positive vibe going.

haj Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Isn't it funny how history seems to repeat itself? We won a far more competative championship at an absolute canter but didn't say a word. When we put 10 past Cowdenbeath, Robbie never felt the need to start hyping us up, we just moved on to the next game. They've looked good against a long line of utter mince. We would do an absolute number on them at Easter Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YMWrules Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Personally I love it when the old hobos are full of beanzzzz,thinking they are a sublime footballing force teaching the world sexy soccer. It makes it all the more sweeter for me watching their misery play out time after time. I reckon if Hearts won the SPFL and the Scottish cup they [filter edit] would still proclaim to be the best football team in Scotland with wonky eye "building something special" shite.

wavydavy Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Your not far off but personally if we went toe to toe with Hibs streets ahead tactical affair and we play into their hands as we did last season. That is what I was thinking to about last season. We did not do well against them at all and I think Robbie needs to concentrate on us playing to our strengths and let the opposition worry about us not the other way round as he was guilty of and still is a bit this season. Hopefully as he gains more experience he will start becoming more confident in our teams ability and have a go at teams such as Celtic, Aberdeen instead of trying to just contain them. Molde are a perfect example of what can be done, hope you were watching Robbie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcalford Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 They are playing against rubbish every other week, does he not realise this, also I know it was not a defeat but St Mirren got a point not 2 long ago, he is just setting himself up for a fall as usual, I really hope they get hammered this weekend even though it is that mob they are playing.

It's the simmering morons in their support who are saying they have improved on last season and are a top two Premiership side, but we are not any better than last season. We are second in the Premiership, they are pretty much exactly where they were for much of last season in an easier Championship.

skinnybob72 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 To be fair they have beaten us, Rangers, Aberdeen and Dundee Utd at ER this year. We can argue that we had nowt to play for but you can only beat what is in front of you. However, this current run of form is once again at a 'nothing' stage of the season - there is no real pressure on them at present. There is pressure at the start of the season to make a good start - as we did last year and Rangers have done this year - Hibs failed both times and are playing catch up even now. There is pressure in the latter stages of the cups - we know how that normally works out for them. There is pressure to wrap up the title / win the play-offs - we know how that normally works for them. Bottom line - they are crowing about a run that has to this point won them ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

A hibby was telling me last night they have 6 forwards and 14 midfielders. Some of the teams in that league are lucky to have 14 players available on match days never mind just midfielders so it's no surprise he's got them top of the....oh wait second in the league.
