Sooks Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 6 minutes ago, Absolute Scenes said: Neilson article saying Kingsley hasn’t trained this week but hasn’t ruled him out altogether. Still says touch and go rather than saying he’s out so still hopeful he can make it. Devlin and Gino back in contention too Can’t wait until we have Beni Kingsley and Devlin all back and fit for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaShango Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I don't think Stevo's comments are particularly helpful to be honest, but this isn't someone at the club saying it, just an ex player. It may fire them up but I don't read too much into these articles, we should be fired up anyway to get tore in about them and lay down a marker for the season. I'll be surprised if Kingsley starts if it was a hammy. Better leaving him out rather than risking him breaking down then being out 6 weeks or so. For me Grant has to start, he's a different dimension in the middle of the park and if we can get him and McKay involved we will be onto a winner I think. McKay seems to take rough treatment in games like this so would be good if he can be prominent on Sunday and rip them a new one. Hibs appear to have pace up top and after the way we were exploited last week we will need to be wary of the ball over the top down the channels. We aren't exactly blessed with pace at the back.

Homme Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Stevo is just our version of Tam McManus, albeit we prefer reading his words than his counterpart. None of what either says has any impact on derbies. I'd be very concerned if our squad was triggered by McManus comments so it says a lot about the Vermin if Stevo's words affect them.

Absolute Scenes Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 the difference is Stevo is 100% correct in what he says - we are by far the bigger and better club. McManus is just delusional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougal Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 If Devlin is fit to start I'd like to see him and Grant as the 2 in the 4-2-3-1 formation with McKay, Boyce and Forrest as the 3 behind Shankland. Think they would cause Hibs a lot of problems and with Grant pushing forward to make 5 in attack would be great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only concern is that they are as much of an unknown quantity as Ross County were at the weekend. I get the point we started slowly but we also didn’t really know how they were going to shape up with their new signings - as our defence showed! It is similar with the hobos - none of us really know how they will shape up, who will start etc. Even if they are shit that’s still a risk.

No Idle Talk Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hibs week! My favourite weeks of the season. Now that the working week is over the excitement is kicking in. I don't think there will be many goals in this one. I'm thinking 0-1 to us. Possibly 0-0 if we're not at it going forward. I hope the 3-4-3 is ditched for this one. 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 please, Robbie.
