1971fozzy Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Fitness will be key. we desperately need Central defender/s. midfield also looks weak but then so is theirs. They play the arse cheeks beforehand in the league so hopefully some morale boosting heavy defeats will see their heads drop. They’ll be favourites no doubt. this still sticks in my throat that it’s going ahead though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T.F.Robertson Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 If there was a way out of this I wouldn't even play it. After all, the season was called, was it not? Different players, a certain team in a different league. Just another farcical decision by our "authorities". Other than it being against them I genuinely coudn't give a toss.

Gorillajam Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 2-1 Hearts Its the most excited I've been for a while for football. I don't think we have anything to fear with that lot. They've no fight in their midfield. I really hope there is a chance for some football fans to attend this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's what floats your boat having pops at other Hearts fans who you have never met then knock yourself out. l have no interest in having a spat with you and boring other posters on a thread about the Hibs semi final. As Hearts fans we should stick together after the crap we have had to endure over the last few months, do you not agree? What are your thoughts on the semi final? I'm not sure how many games we will play beforehand but lm hoping we can get a couple of wins to build confidence and momentum. As for Hibs lm not sure if ld prefer if they had a monumental slide and being disheartened or whether having them all expecting a win as we all know how that usually turns out for them!

Beast Boy Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I’m confident that Neilson and the players know exactly what this game means. Despite being hobbled significantly by the football authorities, and member clubs including Hibs, we need to win this game. It’s a semi-final of the top cup competition in the country. The players and Neilson will be right up for this and see it as an opportunity to start swinging back at the people who did this to us. Some of our supporters seem a bit NGAF about it, and I just can’t understand it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGJ Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Given the new lockdown in Glasgow should we really be risking any travel to Glasgow ? Of course we are still to find out if fans will be allowed to attend and if so in what numbers...in England they are looking for 20,000 fans to attend a match on the 25th October at Twickenham.....around 25% of capacity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3fingersreid Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Given their main tactic involves boyle using his pace to chase a Brazilian like hoof up the park , the 3 players we’ve signed given their pace surely nullifies that , what they will try after that who knows ?Their midfield looks lightweight and neither of their fullbacks look that great .

It’s probably the biggest game on our calendar at the moment and they fear us, no matter what state they believe us to be in they are in fear of what might well happen to them. I for one can’t wait for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannymack Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I've been reminded by a hibs fan that they have not conceded a goal from open play so far this season, maybe we'll just need to rely on direct free kicks and a penalty or two to win the game.

Weakened Offender Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 22 minutes ago, dannymack said: Yep, most definitely and one of the most unexpected results I've witnessed down there, however both clubs have changed personnel since that result. Despite our lowly position before lockdown I still maintained we had enough in our locker to escape relegation and contest in either the play offs or better still finish 10th from the top 😏 but again our squad has been rinsed so who knows what lies ahead of us for this game, I simply hope Robbie & Co know what they're doing with these new signings that are not off the "Im Free Who Wants Me" list where Hibs have signed recognised names with reasonable pedigrees. Ever since May 86 and numerous semi finals and finals since I've never ever been overly confident with our beloved, I've always toned it down and celebrated in style AFTER the event, nothing worse than the big build up and then being let down with an almighty FUD ! 😔 I didn't think it was that unexpected a win at the time. Genuinely fancied us. The League Cup 1/4 tie the season we were in administration was a massively unexpected win. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perrykitch Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I would bring Cummings in 100%. I think we are also underestimating how good it will be to have Gordon in goal. Massive difference.

I thought the whole Cummings talk was a bogey now, is it a possibility again? I thought he'd signed somewhere. (Too laid back after a few drams tonight to look it up.) Not sure how I'd feel about him signing for us, but if he stuck it in the Hobo net, well, all would be forgiven (nearly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheer desperation for a Celtic to get another treble. Assuming it does, then given it was going ahead on the assumption there would be a crowd, the fact the chose Hampden, instead of Murrayfield, meaning 40,000 travelling from Edinburgh to Glasgow, at a time when we are still advised to use public transport of necessary, and to social distance is almost as farcical.

They could have finished the Premiership, played the promotion/relegation play-offs and finished the cup just like other countries did by delaying the start of the next season until mid Sept and playing a lot of closed door games within a short period from mid/early-July when contact sport was allowed.
