pretzel

I'm not complaining as I'm glad they're off the books but by all accounts Shields and Efford have managed to get great deals abroad. Obv surprising considering what they brought to the table here. It was said Lamie was offered a great deal when he signed for Dundee on a pre contract over a year ago. I'm assuming we are covering some of his wage hence the loan deal.

Great to get back to the real football. Glad to see Kelly and Spittal have made the team after the injury concerns. The three points would be most welcome today esph with Rangers and Celtic next up back to back.

YASS FT great win

Great chance for Spencer but he turns away from goal, should have struck a shot.

Refs gave them everything.

Nathan McGinley coming on to shore up the defence.

Really poor from the ref as McGinn was clearly being fouled. Baldy nonce wanted his shirt.

McGinn sent off

Great chance for Spittal should have buried it.

Not to shabby a performance so far. Lovely link up play for the goal between Spittal and Slattery, how the linesman thought that was offside was shocking. I take it the handball rules not as loose this season as Peter Harings hand was just off by his side when he handled, we got stung for less at Tynecastle last year. If he doesn't touch it would have put Casey or I think Spencer in a great position.

Slattery flagged offside but looked well on

TBF I think he was just a clumsy big guy nothing sinister in that. But on the subject the guy that ended up with a broken beek in that game elbowed Moult in the face earlier in the game which caused him to get stitches right across his brow but that elbow was brushed under the carpet always annoyed me as that was a great game but all emphasis was put on that moment. It was sad to see that challenge from Dunne, flew right into that challenge with the intention of taking the guy out.

So frustrating. I think last season must have been one of the worst injury lists I've ever seen us suffer and yet here we are only three weeks into this campaign and going down a similar route. It's a real shame Mika fell foul to a St Midden hatchet man, when Dunne put that sort of challenge in for us he always ended up out injured. The next week or so is going to be interesting.

They have some record in recent times. I remember us beating them at Love St when Clarkson and a young Darren Smith scored in ET. Then later in the season we were pumped 3-0 but perhaps worth forgetting that as they were in the league below at the time as well. A Jim Gannon team also lost 3-0 to them, a week earlier we drew 3-3 in a league tie as well. Then we have had that 4-4 draw then lost on pens and not to mention Billy Mehmet knocking us out in a replay. It's not going great atm as we have had one shot in the 35 minutes.

I see the wee neds in the Hibs fan base have wrecked quite a few rows of seats.

How often do the young guys release a fanzine? Sounds like beef that they have had since the Sligo game. I've seen a few fans of other clubs mention that they requested not to be in one of his videos for whatever reason but he did so anyway. One of his first videos on Motherwell was one of those click bait ones where he sat in front of seat with a pillar, the worst view in scottish football I believe was the title.

Hibs done really well last night it was a far better performance to the recent efforts against the Andorran outfit away and St Mirren. I must say though I throughly enjoyed the last 20 minutes where both sides kicked the crap out of each other. You look at Hibs attacking line and no question it can cause problems but at the other end they have been quite suspect now. Hopefully Thursday's exploits have taken their toll and hopefully we can get the three points.

I know Kettlewell has exhausted the statement in interviews but Scott Burns mentioned the other day that he wants new additions but no more will be added until some players are moved on.

1-1

Yeah, totally agree with that. To paraphrase one of his comments I'm sure he said he hasn't done anything to prove he is a professional-level footballer despite playing in the MLS, tempting a club to spend money on him in our league, getting capped at international level and finally our management team signing him.

Theo Fucking Bair

Yeah the official twitter said a pay at the gate facility will be available tomorrow.

Mcfadden needs a trip booked to Turkey pronto.

Tbf like Semih Ayildek as well under McGhee we got offered to take both players without paying a wage opposed to us really wanting them. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out.

It's not a luxury we are afforded anymore due to the high turn around of players in this league. By all accounts the young guy is getting rave reviews from Arsenal fans so hopefully he can make a great impression at senior level. A teenage Anthony Stokes went from Arsenal to Falkirk in the SPL without playing a senior game and smashed it.
