Good job we don't have McGhee in the dugout.

Pretty standard for any young player who hasn't come through our ranks. Seedorf's getting it too. Think we just need to look at Donelly to know that players in their early twenties are still learning and developing. I doubt many would have predicted he'd become the player he is now. Madness to write anyone that age off.

Fully supportive of the year we got to cup finals being referred to exclusively as the "Ciftci season" from now on tbh.

as others have said Scott was well on top v their right back and i think robinson made a mistake moving him to right. seedorf could have came on right wing and attacked stevenson on his outside. however it showed where we are as a team that hibs were so defensive. we dominated most of game apart from a 10 min spell 2nd half. 4th at least will be guaranteed soon.

Of course, sorry that comment wasn't aimed at you at all. It's the "never a footballer" comments aimed at 21/22 year old players who have played 5 games for us. Illic and Seedorf have had it from a few.

Rangers are much easier proposition without mad Morelos. We well in the game at Ibrox when they had Defoe up front.

Aberdeen now 3 wins in their last 10. Not great form and the fans aren't happy with the style of play. They are under a wee bit of pressure and have been dire since the break. Livingston should not be underestimated. For me they have one of the best midfield rosters in the league, are coming off 5 home wins on the trot and have only lost at home to Rangers and Aberdeen. Away to Livingston has been one of the tougher fixtures for the past couple of seasons.

Anybody who follows the reserves on a regular basis will tell you Manzinga’s cameo performances have been the exception rather than the rule. It’s no surprise McIver was given the nod. i don’t buy the Brian Graham interest either.

Got. It in one

I thought that was overall a good controlling performance that just lacked that wee bit of quality / luck in the penalty box. Campbell, Donnelly and Polworth were excellent in particular. When a decent team like Hibs turn up and park the bus, you know we're a team that's feared. Our 6 forwards probably about 100 professional appearances between them so it's hardly surprising that we struggled to break a jam packed defence down and to Hibs credit, they also nullified anything we chucked into the box for Hartley and Gallagher to attack. Disappointed with just the point but only because it was a very decent performance.

All we lacked today was a cutting edge up front, other than that we pretty much controlled the game and that’s as good as I’ve seen our defence in quite a while. Gallagher and Hartley strolled it at the back with a Hartley looking as good as he ever has. Hibs really went to town on Donnelly but other than a kick out for which he was booked he did well to keep his cool. Scott looked sharp, especially in the first half and to be fair everyone put a shift in. Grimshaw was wasteful at times but is probably still a better option than Tait. I must say I really enjoy the way Robinson has changed the style of football from Hartley and Dunn just lumping it forward to playing it out from the back, moving the ball from side to side with no little amount of finesse. Only a draw but a lot of positives today, you can really start to see how the team is developing and with Turnbull back along with Long and a Hylton I think we are pretty much a match for anyone outside of the old firm.

I'm buying 8, then not going.

Other then Dundee in the Ciftci season, it feels like a while since we last had a 3pm cup away day. Think we’ll take well in excess of 2,000 if we get the allocation.

I'm surprised as they have a stand named after him at Pittodrie.
