In a nutshell, Andy Kirk had problems trying to bring in new players who wanted to play for Hearts to be fair, some of that would be down to travel issues, but I was told he was knocked back by a few players, as an aside some of the girls will now be training during the day for a couple of hours, a couple of days a week, as well as there normal training schedules Obviously due to work and education commitments not all girls will be able to commit to this, but it’s a step in the right direction.

I very much doubt it's a last hurrah before they give up and let us take over. I can assure you there is an element of getting one over us and obtaining the same bragging rights as what an original Edinburgh Derby would give to the winners. I had someone at my work saying Hibs are looking to take 7 or more of us tonight, genuinely excited at the prospect of Hibs beating Heart of Midlothian on their own turf in front of 6/7k. I like the high profile of Ladies/Womens football but IF Heart of Midlothian are to be beaten tonight then yes its not great but im not going to loose sleep over it.

Wee Mikey Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Half-time: 1-0. Sorry folks, but Hibs are very much dominating. They're picking up almost all 2nd balls with some good distribution (their #4 seems to be bossing it from the back, picks out good passes and looks like she'd see me off at the wrestling 🤭). We've got some quick players and have made some fine interceptions without it coming to much. Our #18, for one, would leave me for dead in a foot race, for sure. But, we've not threatened their 'keeper yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the impression right away that Hibs and their fans were looking for a turkey shoot tonight. They finally have a derby in which they've been dominant and can feel a wee bit confident about. Bless.

Wee Mikey Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 The highlights will be on BBC Scotland on Mon at 19:00 if you wish to see Hibs' 'keeper having a holiday. To be fair, their goals all looked good and they had (almost) all the best moves. Both teams showed skilfull ball control with some slick passing. One highlight was our diminutive #10 getting a red card for bundling over their stout #4 who rolled over and almost took out Olid. Not quite Cochrane on McGinn, but gave me a laugh. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJGJ Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Given the stages of the development of both sides the result can hardly be called a surprise Surprised to see Hearts players player of the year leave for Motherwell though Clearly youth is the model being followed and hard to argue with that whilst there is no or little money in the Scottish game......we can give the players everything bar a wage.

Kiwidoug Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 I suspect that James Anderson will fund Hearts women to raise their standards over the next couple of years.

ooh-aah-cantona Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I don’t think anyone heading into the match would have fancied Hearts to win given where the 2x different squads are at; Hibs having 3-4 players who have won the SWPL Titles and cups, with 2x Scotland caps in the heart of the team in Murray and Boyle. Hearts are very much a youth team, with 8 of the starting line up being under 20, 5 of which I reckon are 17. The first 30 minutes was generally Hearts under the cosh, soaking up pressure from Hibs attack predominately down the wings, in a game that had a few errors - misplaced passes, foul throws etc - which is understandable given the occasion. The first goal typified that as there were at least 3x Hearts players who when they watch this back, will feel they could have done better and prevented the opener. The Hearts boss Eva Olid had seen enough to send out Tweedie at the half hour mark for an extensive warm up and it looked like she was coming on but Hearts faired better in that 15 minutes with more positive play, although not troubling the Hibs goalkeeper. At the start of the 2nd half, Olid made 2x substitutions but changed half the team around positionally which for me, made Hearts look disjointed and struggle to get out of our half, as I felt we had two sitting midfielders in front of the defence that didn’t have the legs to get forward. As expected, Hibs had more guile and legs in the second period and were worthy of their 3-0 win. A few things to take away for the young team but they should hold their heads up high. There were some positive individual performances but I’ll reserve special praise for 17 year old centre half Tegan Browning, who I thought was fantastic.
