Bootzilla Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Better team, manager and coaching now. More impressed with Roberts than others on here. Haring coming back, Irving will continue to improve, Halliday an upgrade = midfield better. Kingsley's a decent player. Time for Walker and Boyce to step up. Hibs probably improved, anything could happen but expecting a win. 5-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I’m in no way saying we are great, we’ve got a lot to prove and there’s much to be made up yet to the Hearts support. But wtf do pundits see in Hibs? Maybe it’s just me, I’m pretty critical of the standard in the game now and it’s maybe a case of being the best out of the ordinary aside from Rangers and Celtic. Some of the Hibs players are so bland. McGinn, Doidge, Wright, the pish at the back they’ve had for years. Has the standard stooped so low that shite like Hanlon are now deemed internationalists? Get a bit f**kin anger about us on Saturday. We’ve got the ability. Hound these c**ts at the back, never stop, show dig, show a persistence that’ll out will them because they are bottle merchants when put under pressure.

5-1Jambo Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Let's not kid ourselves that the advantage given to Hibs, by the SPFL decisions over the last few months, haven't made our chances any easier. But its going to be a one off slog in the gale force wind and pouring rain. If Haring plays, we have the best player on the pitch and with Gordon in goal we have one of the best keepers in Scottish football and then we have Naismith (big game player and Hall of fame inductee). Put all that in the mix and we have more than a fighting chance. Cmon the Jambos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pans Jambo Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Was just thinking I would just love it if Wighton scored the winner. He's taken some slagging over the last few seasons (rightly so) and I have joined in on that too but credit where it's due, he seems to have the bit between his teeth and there's nothing better than when the underdog scores the winner in a big match is there?

Anyone who has watched them this season will see they arent very good. They have fluked a few wins and it's sees them sitting 3rd in the league. I'm not saying we are world beaters, far from it, but we should definitely be able to give them a good game. As long as we don't concede early goal we're in a with a decent shout.

Restonbabe Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Just all a bit Meh to be brutally honest. I know it's a Derby. I know it's a cup semi final. However it's last seasons semi final and it means nothing. Apart from a cup win. Its not in April its not warm, it's not sunny, there are no fans allowed to attend. No atmosphere I mean we will still have a chance to win it but its not going to mean anything if we lose It's a nothing competitive fixture Edited October 29, 2020 by Restonbabe Meg is my daughter.

We could sweat blood on Saturday and get beaten, it happens sometimes, but you raise your percentages of winning by trying to outwork, fight and out-will the opponent. Something we need to embed back into our mentality. FTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merrymac Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Look at their results this season. In the big matches lost heavily to Celtic in Glasgow, lost at home to Aberdeen , draw against Rangers in Leith, nothing to suggest anything has changed in their ability to win on big occasions The fact that they have scraped a few narrow wins against mostly sub-standard opposition doesn't make them world beaters.. If we can play a solid game and take a couple of our chances then we can do this. Hibs are no different to normal, the fact that we are in a different division should have no bearing on this game. Lets get right into them and reach another final. and FTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Caine Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Don't know if it's already been mentioned, but the weather forecast for Saturday is pretty grim. High winds and heavy rain. Will give our opponents a ready made excuse, as it could interrupt their free flowing expansive style. My main worry about Saturday is, if we take the lead that we then try to defend it for the rest of the match. If we take an early lead, we need to add to it and not invite them on to us. Hopefully we're now savvy enough to realise this. Also, important that our guys win their personal battles and not relent at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly an impartial selection of individuals, however I would think most punters would take Hibs to win, everything is heavily stacked in their favour. The bookies aren't taking any chances with their odds but I suspect Hibs will be favourites by kick off with most of them, as non Hearts punters will take the current price on Hibs. Discipline will be key to the game, if we go down to 10 men our lack of match fitness will allow them to run all over us. As it stands if it's level after 70 mins it'll take some effort from us to win the game. Robbie has a huge dilemma on team selection does he wheel out the first team from KO and try to get a lead or does he look to hold then throw everything at them last 20 minutes if we're still in it? All things considered it would be an utter embarrassment for them if Hibs lost this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the shambles of the Macphee semi final last season, where we went for the latter approach of leaving our main attacking threats on the bench and were then 2/3-0 down by the time any subs were actually made. No point bringing Naismith, Haring and Ginnelly on after an hour if we're 2/3-0 down by then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanHearts Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Most people outside Hearts are predicting a comfortable Hibs win. Its easy to see why. They have played 12 games in the Premiership we have had 2 games in the Championship. Since they helped expel us they have spent money like a drunken sailor ( while making non playing staff redundant ). We have reshaped the squad in line with our position and reduced budget, and have various key players injured or just not match fit. We are up against It this time more than I can recall in any previous match against them. However if Robbie can come up with a really smart game plan and if the players come out fighting then we have a decent chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good managers know how to measure the game/their squad against what they have at their disposal. I’m sure Robbie was well prepared a week ago. With all his experience of derbies and what players are available, he’d have probably had two teams in mind while waiting on the fitness calls on certain players. It’ll be geared towards winning and playing as many of our best players that fit into the way he wants to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think 2 goals is the biggest I can think of edit: in recent years obviously! As another poster has alluded to on the last page, in my 33 years of life (27ish attending games), as far as I can recall Hibs have only beaten us by a 3 goal margin TWICE. 6-2 at Easter Road and 3-0 at Tynie. The last time was now over 20 years ago. Two 3 goal victories in almost 30 years (and possibly beyond that). NONE in the last 20 years. We'll undoubtedly lose by that margin again at some point in the future, but I'm pretty sure that won't be on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
