Hibernian v Aberdeen

Was the win over Motherwell a fluke or the dawn of a new era? We will see when the Robbo Roadshow pulls into Edinburgh on Saturday 19th at 3 pm.

Hibs were shite last night, but I think they will be up for this one, and I fancy a 2-2 draw.

  • The four points are a bonus in my opinion. Trust me, when you get to my age, you'll be more than happy with just the semi 😉

  • Being honest, if we’d been offered a semi & 4 points from the 3 games this week we’d have taken it, but that’s 2 points thrown away there IMO. Completely surrendered the initiative for first 15 mi

  • Ach, not the worst result. Both teams trying not to lose for the most part, quite a cagey affair. We looked like a team at times there. Think Robinson probably got the subs wrong today. I don't think

1-3. Nisbett, Mouloua x 2

David Gray gone from Hibs

Yeah just came to post that. Gutted!

I wonder if Stephen Glass will be in the conversation to replace him. Maybe not as manager but as assistant, which he was to Robbie Keane. Was recently offered (and rejected) the Scotland U21 job.

Steve Clarke???

Disappointed Gray didn't hang on until Saturday.

Nae idea who the next manager will be at the spoon burners, couple of names to throw into the mix, Scott Brown, Stephen Glass, Valakari (Saint Johnstone)

Anyway as long as we beat them on Saturday that is all that matters and I think we will do just that.

0-3 the good guys Nisbet x 2 Cadden

I'm kind of glad he's gone. I still have the nightmares from saving his job a couple years ago.

I must admit I would be intrigued to see how Valakari did at a bigger club, he's impressed me a lot since he went to saints

Well I am going (if my ticket shows up) so we are probably fucked. Cannot remember last time I saw us win live. Spoon burners in the office all seem very pleased Gray is away.

Felling pretty good about this one, what a difference a week makes! Obviously you expect some form of reaction from Hibs but I would be surprised if many/any of the players were happy to see the back of Gray. It's often when a manager is disliked that the players suddenly remember how to play after their departure so whilst I expect Hibs to be a bit more stodgy and have something to prove they are probably still going to play Hanley at CB so game on. Assuming we play like we have for the past few games I can see us scoring a few, even more so if we score first and reasonably early as the spoon burners will be right on their backs if we do and I think there is a fair chance they could fall apart under the pressure. Especially since we now actually look a significantly more dangerous team in the final third (again, what a difference a week makes). Don't get me wrong, I know one swallow does not a summer make, but it's hard not to be optimistic that Mouloua is actually going to be a big goal threat for us going forward after his recent displays. He certainly doesn't lack confidence and both times he's put the ball in the back of the net he's shown fantastic technique! Dare I say it but I think he's got cult hero written all over him. Not just that though, Ronan and Marshall are showing very encouraging signs of actually being able to supply the front line, Nisbet is on 11 for the season and Olusanya is........... well Olusanya is fucking chaos but usually in a good way.

Not expecting too much change to the starting line up. Robinson said today that Mayo is a slight doubt so potentially Milne in for him but I can't see any one else in the defence getting dropped unless they pick up a knock between now and the KO. Can't see the midfield changing and the only other question mark is does Mouloua come in for Olusanya. I would stick with Toy myself, let him run the defence ragged then bring Mouloua on about 65/70. Potentially could be interesting to see how Mouloua and Olusanya played together as a 2 but I can't see Nisbet being dropped.

Great post TLG

You've invigorated me to the extent of fuck my original prediction, we're going to win 4-0 away from home again tomorrow.

I do however reserve the right to pan Robinson tomorrow evening again if it all goes Pete Tong 😉

Heading to the game, hope Marshall is kept in the starting line-up as he looks good and has a goal threat from midfield.

Someone's been on the cans.

Good performance on Tuesday so hope we can continue in the same manner. Can see it being a similar type of game- Motherwell gave us lots of room to play in the middle while they tried to use the width and they were not in our face or just sitting back or making it hard to break them down. If we do get the time to play then we just look a more composed team. If teams are in our face feel like we panic and rush making poor decisions.

Don’t really know what to expect for this one, hibs are a wounded animal and have just binned their manager, so who knows what sort of performance they’re going to put in. We’re starting to show signs of life which has been incredibly positive given the start to the league campaign we made. Would like to see Marshall retain his spot, certainly feels like he deserves it over the last two, and maybe mouloua to see if him and Nisbet can work together. Olusanya coming on later, but suspect it’ll be the other way around. Hopefully jutes curse doesn’t strike again. 😂

Fun little side show to the game.

Chris Cadden (and his brother Nicky) both turn 30 today. And he's spending his birthday playing against his twin brother, against his old club, at what used to be his home ground.

Edited by Panda

Does anyone have a spare ticket for the game today?

Match Day it is then>
COYR heed first.

Still have a good feeling about this one and think we will be back up the road with another 3 points, 3 goals and a clean sheet.
Nisbet x 2 and Cadden (every player likes a goal or two against their ex employer)

I hear ya pal, but hopefully he winna make the team, missed their midweek game with injury and sounds like he is a doubtful starter for today still nursing the same injury.

We can do this.

Probably the best known lineup at the moment (injuries included) for an away game. Briedl and Mouloua will likely take their slots over time.
