  1. Should have been more comfortable than it was, but enjoyed the performance for the most part anyway. 

    When Gallagher first arrived I thought he looked decent and was unfortunate to get the leg break that curtailed his progress. He's since had to bide his time after Montgomery being pretty good and then Robinson being even better. However, he appears to be taking the chance to re-establish himself now and will hopefully only continue to improve. Same goes for Max, really flourishing at the moment and should have scored his 2nd chance today. 

    Not much needs said about Fran, what a prospect he is. More than deserved his moment at the end. 

    Wasn't his best game, but Phillips looks so good in there with the always excellent Smith. For two shorter lads, the don't lose much in the midfield battleground and can both turn it on when required. 

    I've not posted in many match threads this season, but I'm struggling to recall a time over the last few seasons when I've felt this positive about most aspects of the team. Maybe it's because Hibs were poor, but we made them so. Levein has done wonders in no time, long may it continue. 

  2. For no other reason than sentiment, I hope May gets till the end of the season so he can get a proper send off. MOH and more so Spoony were denied it, be a shame to make the same mistake again. 

    Given the comments during the week on Jephcott and his abscenece today, him being a striker to move on seems highly likely. 

    Neither Costello or DJ are strikers anyway, so getting one starter signed to play with Clark when he's occasionally fit leaves us Kane and May in reserve. Add a project player if you wish, who takeover next season from May and Kane if he's not offered anything beyond the summer. 

  3. I've a soft spot for Brechin and I'm actually sorry we're taking so much away with our appointments. 

    However, I feel we can benefit you in return and that would require you to approach Liam Craig to be your new gaffer. He was doing a fine job with our youths and was a sad casualty of us needing a completely clean break given he was assistant to Macca. 

    I hope he takes the seat in our dugout in the future and see no better place to start cutting his managerial teeth than Brechin.

    If he's currently on 4-5k a week he's just not going to move to Saints for £1,500 a week. No matter how ambitious he is. 

    If indeed. 

    We can't compete with those wages, but I can't see him being on that, I could be wrong, but I don't belive it would be that much. If he was earning that much, Celtic would be looking to have him loaned out at a higher level than us, where they'd likely be able to get a much bigger percentage of the wage covered. 

    It's all speculation though, nobody knows. We do have a bit of a war chest in reserve still tho, even after Davidson tried to plunder it.

    Think he's got another 2 years?

    I'd hazard a guess that he'll be getting a decent £ on that Celtic contract so can see him being keen to see it to completion for that reason. 

    Not sure I agree. If he believes in himself, as he should do. Then he'd be best taking a move to play week in week out and earning a bigger move off the back of that. 2 more years at Celtic won't really set him up that well, but 8-10 years playing in England after doing well for someone like us for a year or two would.

    Vital away win against relegation rival 

    And above is all you can say 

    What an awful support 

    That's the point, we shouldn't be anywhere near them. If being able to spot underperformance makes me an awful supporter, I can't imagine what you'd call me when we're really shite. 

    Anyway, I'm all for having reasoned debate on here, but until you show signs of being capable to do so, I'll leave you too it. 

     

     

  7. Well, he is.

    We're 8th when we could comfortably be in the top 6. He'll get a bit grace this season due to how close we came to the drop in 21/22, but he's stifling us. 

    But you obviously know better, Bino. 

    As for today. United are garbage. You never dream you'll actually see a winner like that in person, but to actually have it today was priceless. What a complete clown. To then go off 'injured' is a complete minter. 

    All in all, pleasing to come away with the win and maybe we can start to look bit upwards again.

    I've a horrible feeling we'll somehow win and be stuck with Davidson longer.

    Booze taking a hold.

    Booze? You'd need LSD to see any kind of exciting performance from us. Doesn't change the fact I expect us to shitehouse 3 points tomorrow and gives Davidson the justification he seeks. 

    It's a sad state of affairs that I even say this, I'm not alone either, but I'd be happy to come on here tomorrow and be wrong if it gets him out the door.

    Christ knows, at the time, we deserved a slagging for the way our club handled the hiring of the stadium to Celtic. Not the hiring itself, but their usual blundering ignorance surrounding the optics. 

    For someone still to be banging on about it on a forum is, well, ach, someone give the fella’ his Horlicks and tuck him in for the night. 😊

    Let's all remember this the next time one of your lot gets upset about Alan Main.
