BobbyBiscuit Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Tough tie, but definately got a chance of going through. Whereas, if we'd got Bayern, there was no chance of going through. Only three weeks til the home leg, I think we'll need to win by a couple of goals at our place and keep a clean sheet. Just hope we've got our act together by then!

chunk Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hibs side that lost 5-1 away to Dnipro on 29/09/2005 Malkowski, Beuzelin, Caldwell, Murphy, O'Connor, Riordan, Sproule, Stewart, Hogg, Thomson, Whittaker Hibs side that lost 4-0 away to Aberdeen on 29/04/2006 Malkowski, Shields, Caldwell, Hogg, Murphy, Whittaker, Konde, Glass, Sproule, Fletcher, Riordan 7 players in both starting line-ups. I'm not sure how the Dnipro side now compare to then, but just a warning not to read too much into one result! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Peru Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 it's a hellhole, by all accounts, so i'll nae be going (besides that, i'll be back fae my holidays one day). however, i think it's a winnable game. I remember dnipro being okay but no great shakes from that hibees game, and a bunch of their goals came in the last five minutes while hibs were pushing up the park to get one back. pretty much the draw i thought we'd get - some doughty eastern european mob. i saw we take 'em and then make hay in the groups - remember, three from five qualify. bring it on!

Guest Ramen Red Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I have found the following link on the Guardian site on Dnipro http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2007/08/28/threes_a_crowd_for_dynamo_and.html I know this is my first post on this forum, but IMHO it seems that Dnipro have got a good team and have made a reasonable start to the season. If we assume that the Ukrainan League is the same standard as the SPL (both countries have two teams in the Champions League Group Stages and have meglomaniac club owners) then both the Dons and Dnipro are evenly matched. From reading the article the success of the Dons depends on their attitude towards us. If they think we are of lesser quality than tham, then we may have a chance.

glasgow sheep Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 TBH I'm more concerned about our own team than them. As long as JC puts out a sensible side in a sensible formation then I'd think we might have a wee chance. We need to get some confidence, wins and probably most importantly clean sheets on the board in the next few games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reekie_Red Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 From reading the article the success of the Dons depends on their attitude towards us. If they think we are of lesser quality than tham, then we may have a chance. And that's us in a nutshell. If we think we can beat them, chances are we won't. If we go in there with the determination we had against Rangers at the end of last season, I'm quietly confident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewsome Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 On Any given day 1 team can beat another. It does indeed depend on who wants it more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Had a look at that the other day. See if you click on their club shop they have a Hibs scarf on display. Also clicked on their fans forum, but obviously couldn't make head nor tail of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewsome Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 As they are currently even on points, we will have to take them as seriously as Celtic take Shakhtar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leerichardson40yrds Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Does anyone know if the club are going to (even try) arranging (or recommend) ways for fans to go to the away leg? I have waited for 5 years for a proper away trip, and I don't want to totally rule it out yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Does anyone know if the club are going to (even try) arranging (or recommend) ways for fans to go to the away leg? I have waited for 5 years for a proper away trip, and I don't want to totally rule it out yet... If you look on Red Web club have announced a "offical travel partner" for the trip who are putting together a package. Also passport travel are talking of putting a charter on. I have booked trip from Wednesday to Saturday for 3 of us going from Edinburgh to Kiev via Amsterdam then train to Dnipro. Total cost looking to be about £360 each including accomodation. Cannot see the charters coming in for much less than £500 (passports trip to Ukraine last year for Scotland game was around this level) so you will propbaly be cheaper arranging it for yourself.
