That aside, I think that suddenly the right side of defence has become a problem area for us. Hibs targeted Smith and the space between him and Halkett. Cochrane was very solid on the other side. Smith is very short of pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 2 minutes ago, The Old Tolbooth said: We were absolutely coasting that game with 4 at the back, why change it? It was madness when we were so comfortable, we needed fresh legs up top for more of an out ball, but we need to start taking some of those many missed chances, we should’ve been out of sight half way through the second half! Gordon was only troubled once in the first half, and once at the end of the second half, they offered nothing until we gave them it, it’s so frustrating! Exactly, managers happy though so it must be all right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australis Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Robbie has the makings of a decent manager. But sometimes he is so naive. He nearly got that spot on today, then made changes that made us worse. Hope he has the jack straws to admit it. That is one of the worst Hibs teams and line ups I have ever seen. But we managed to cause our own downfall, sometimes think he tries to be too clever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diadora Van Basten Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I just don’t understand why we decided to give Hibs the ball and not press them in the last ten minutes. We let them get into our half get their head up and pick a pass. One time in particular the ball goes back to Marshall he has a player open to the left if he passes it Devlin could close him down so he could only pass it back to Marshall. Instead Devlin runs the other way and parks himself in front of the central defender. Marshall passes to the guy on the left who is given time and space to wander into our half and pick a pass.

Didnt deserve anything but with diving chipmunk u know theres a chance for them shd hve booted him in air. Still they like celebrating draws so there u go better than loss for us in end but they were there for taken and at easter road he has blown it again changing system. FTH least we didn't lose it.

amadjambo Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Well done Robbie. Doing the same thing over and over again which too often has cost us dearly.

tcjambo Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Yes no need to change defence. The sub we were crying out for was Ginelly for Shankland. They would have been more hesitant to push forward.

It was utterly bizarre when you’ve got Henderson and Ginelly sitting on the bench and we’re well on top to make 3 defensive substitutions and a shape change because ONE man came on for them. Neilson shat himself. He’s done this time and time again. He’s a very average manager given charge of a very good squad being improved year on year and there is a ceiling on what can be achieved if we truly believe he is the best we can get. Joe Savage surely cannot possibly be of the opinion that we can win the league with this utter shitebag.

Then in 5 minutes of injury time we change and Hibs could well have scored before they got the last minute equaliser which you could see coming. And Robbie's regular yellow card is beginning to piss me off. What signal is that giving the players? If your not winning or not winning by a bigger margin, it is down to the officials?. It wasn't today and it rarely is. This is starting to annoy me too. He's more use in the dugout than the stand. Would like to see him maintain his composure better. Appreciate he cares a lot, but he needs to temper it a bit. No point getting sent off or fined. Not like the officials listen anyway.

Credit to Hibs, they have spent some money & brought Boyle back with immediate effect. Where is our marquee signing??
