upgotheheads Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) It's a bit early but in the desperate circumstances I thought I may as well. Our best current signed 11 (in my opinion) plus bench, as of today . Against our injuries and suspensions for next game v Celtic Best start 11 Bench Next Saturday v Celtic Best bench Gordon. Clark Gordon Clark Haring Shankland Halliday Kio Halkett Ginnelly Rowles Smith Kingsley Shankland Kingsley GMS Kio Atkinson Beni Devlin Devlin McKay McKay Cochrane Cochrane Boyce Humphrys Humphrys Obviously Shankland and Kio will start next week but you will get my drift. If we can get a couple of injured players back, especially Smith and Halkett, that would help, but I don't think Neilson will risk anything against Celtic, It will be damage limitation with a view to some 'easier' games coming up.

EIEIO Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 No idea why we didn't sign a free agent centre half even on a short term deal until Christmas. When Halkett broke down in Riga it was obvious he'd be out for a while. This could be double figures if we concede early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Sanchez Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 As it stands I'm pretty meh about going, I'm sure it'll change the closer it gets. Quite a lot of people are set in their ways about Robbie. And the players could give their absolute all and still be on the end of a tanking. So I'm set to spend 2 hours on the bus to more than likely sit in an ugly atmosphere in the home end with those wankers in the away end giving it the big yin. I can't see it any other way tbh.

Luckies1874 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Will be thousands of ST holders not bothering with this one which is significant indicator of what a mess we’ve made of the first couple of months of the season. Even though we get a rest this midweek and they play Wednesday it’s difficult to see a Neilson team, low on confidence, energy and apparently motivation and inspiration get close to their attackers.

We have nothing to lose by selecting Pollock, Smith (Connor) and Darge - young, passionate, seizing their opportunity. I would put Clark in goal - very experienced and excellent keeper. Kio seems the “oh no!” choice, however the guy IS experienced, and as long as he keeps the head, this might be his turning point. And, Robbie, just let the team play from the heart . . . show them the recent Celtic-Hibs game, and give them the freedom to ENJOY playing against a mesmerising team. If we play with passion and effort, even if we lose (as most seem to expect), c’est la vie, however we supporters will come away at least satisfied finally with a performance!

Yeah let’s be honest this game is a write off with 10 players out. Even if we installed Pep, Klopp and Sir Alex as joint manager. Though I do recall saying similar before the 4-0 game, that was a makeshift team with a few kids. Maybe Robbie should just do the same, chuck Henderson, Smith, Pollock in the starting 11, maybe Pollock will do a Harry Cochrane Edited October 17, 2022 by A_A wehatethehibs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleLafferty Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Absolutely no one on this board will accept Neilson wanting to keep the score down. And you are lying to yourself if you say it.

joondalupjambo Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 For those going to drive over from Fife or further north just bear in mind there are major roadworks on the Queensferry crossing this weekend. Northbound so getting across should be ok if you head over early enough but they are saying absolute nightmare timescales for heading back over. Buses will be ok but rammed.
