Dry your eyes you fucking bellend.Calm down.. your over confidence in your team has been shown up ... again. Calm down.
Hibs fans like you have been all over Aberdeen pages for the past week. gloating over a first top 3 finish for your team in nearly 2 decades . Its football banter.
Wipe that tear away [emoji2958]0 -
It's not the greatest Hibs side in 3 years.Amazing victory and season from St Johnstone. Congratulations to them.
Hibs [emoji1] . The greatest Hibs side in 2 decades... still Hibs it. Hibs are a comedic gift. Never change . Never stop hibsing it [emoji16]0 -
Absolutely as expected. Fair fucks St Johnstone, enjoy your night.

One in four in Scotland over a 38 game season is 9-10 goals a season. He's 25 so you wouldn't expect huge amounts more development. If Dundee Utd sell him it will be for well under 1m. It's also true what I'm saying regarding trying to punt him fwiw.I think people overplay that, he got 1 in 4. That's quite decent. Utd have been fairly pish and quite defensive, its not actually a bad return.
I just would have expected to have heard about it somewhere, and would be surprised if they were hawking him about halfway through a season anyway, especially at a time when prices were down.
So I doubt the veracity of your information.0 -
Why would you have? No one was interested at the price Dundee Utd were looking for. He's a 25 year old striker who wasn't very good in the Premiership. Previous to this season there was a chance he was going to be very good but just hadn't had the opportunity at a higher level. Now he has, and that has fucked his value.Yeah I understood I just doubt that's true. Never heard anything about it at the time.0 -
You misunderstand, Dundee Utd were actively trying to punt him for that in January and got no takers at that price. Why would any club double a price neither they nor anyone else bit on previously?I've no idea about January, though Covid has deflated the market.
But about 15 months ago I listened to an interview with Mark Ogren on radio and he was asked about Shankland. He was spouting a load of deluded pish about how their business plan had been successful elsewhere and they thought they could improve facilities, have success on the field and turn a profit.
The interviewer was rightly a bit suspicious as to how much acid they'd clearly taken and quizzed him about his most valuable asset Shankland. What did he think he could get for him.
Ogren waffled on a bit about how they thought they could make a lot of money off him, so the interviewer through out a figure for perspective. Three million? Ogren smugly replied, no we feel we can realise significantly more than that for him.
That is the level of delusion you're dealing with. He genuinely thought they would get five or six for him.
I would say 700k is way low and expect them to double that easily, but it will be a fraction of what they were expecting and is a great example of deluded foreign owners coming in having watched the EPL on TV and thinking they operate in the same stratosphere. As is what's going on with Ferguson now.0 -
Dundee Utd were looking for 700k for Shankland in January. Him playing a season in the top league has tanked his value because he's no that good.No, slightly low but hardly insulting. 2.2 or something would be a fair price. 1.2 isn't a terrible opening offer with that in mind.
As it happens I've made the same criticism of Utd over Shankland who are in an identical position and also delusional. He would go for 1.8 or something now. They also thought they could get 4-6.0 -
Think he's still got 2 years left on his Hibs contract and what you describe above is pretty much exactly the role he has at Hibs (David Gray is on an identical deal). If you wanted to sign him and play him more regularly than we have I could see him going to do that.Is McGregor not on a fairly lengthy contract at Hibs? Would have thought if he wanted to go into coaching they'd have been happy to offer him a role.
If he's coming in mainly as a coach who'll provide cover then fair enough as he hasn't played that many games in the last couple of seasons.

I'm not actually sure if the Vicky has a tele tbh. Been in a few times but genuinely can't mind seeing one. Will check the next time I'm walking past and have a look.Sounds promising [emoji3] We have loads of places booked throughout the day but nowhere that will probably be showing the football. Will Victoria's bar show football? I've managed to book there for 2 on top of the Barologist (which I know won't). Hopefully you boys win and it turns into a street party instead!0 -
You're possibly totally fucked for it tbh. We got a cancellation at Meadowbank last night for five of us after a fuckload of looking. Exact words from Robbies when asking was "it was booked out for the whole day and night within 20 minutes of Hibs going two up in the semi".Alright Hibees. I am out in Leith on Saturday as we got an engagement gift for a hotel stay in the Malmaison. Just dawned on me that it is the day of the Scottish Cup final so now trying to find a suitable pub to watch the game. Any that you could recommend that will be a decent atmosphere for the match? I assume the main haunts will all be fully booked by this point. It doesn't need to be close to the hotel - most of the bars and restaurants booked already are scattered. Cheers.
Your best bet might be giving it till quarter past one and see if anyone hasn't turned up and take their place.

Aye, but in terms of coming close to it that's pretty much the closest anyone has since Aberdeen last did it in 1990. If hibs go out and win 3-0 or something on Saturday I'd say they came closer than St Johnstone have this season.You could have won a double but you can’t be one game away if you don’t win the 1st one.0 -
We lost the league cup final to a last minute goal. I'm no sure how much closer than that you're talking about.No, you weren’t really.
But that would have been amazing if you’d won both cups while having your lowest league finish in ages.0 -
Hibs in 2016 were.Think I'm more nervous because we won the league cup.
Are we ever going to be 1 game from a double ever again?
Indeed other than the big 2 when will any Scottish club be?0 -
That is absolute shite. Boyle is still at Hibs only because he's had two cruciate injuries. He's the most improved player over a period of time I've ever seen in Scottish football. He developed composure which rarely happens. He's still quick, but he lifts his head now. He had raw talent when he first got to Hibs, but it's developed into a player no team in the league wants to play against.Boyle is limited though. It's why he is at Hibs. A player with his raw attributes is nowhere near Scottish football unless it's a season or two at one of the filth before moving on to a decent team down south. It's not a knock on the guy. He absolutely makes the most of what he has but his end product is often non existent. Compare him to Matty Kennedy/Jonny Hayes. All three are very wasteful with their final ball. Boyle's pace gives him a lot more chances to get it right.
I don't think there is much between the two sides in the grand scheme of things. There isn't much of the Hibs team I'd take in place of their opposing player at Aberdeen. The main difference is the three I would take. They have almost as many goals between them as our whole team has for the season.1 -
Smells like teen spirit (md 20-20).I bet Darren McGregor smells magnificent0 -
You wouldn't want him anyway, he'd not be staying in the Pittodrie car park.Winner signs Leigh Griffiths.
Congratulations hibees1 -
Hibs should be playing anyone who hasn't had enough game time who could potentially be called on for hopefully the two Cup games. McGregor, Stevenson, Hallberg, Magennis should all be playing. Play Gogic as he's out next week.

Aye, haven't seen a replay of it at all focusing on him but I'll take your word for it that it was probably Gallagher I'm thinking of. Hard one to take for you, but linesman is probably trying to look in about 3 different areas with players going in all directions for it. Easy to look at replays when you know what's about to happen and think it's horrendous but they're only getting one chance to see it.One of the broadcasts drew a line, close to a yard, I assume you mean Gallagher as O’Donnell was floating about 18 yards out.0 -
There wasn't a yard in it though. I think it's O'Donnell on the camera side who's at a minimum very close to playing him on (there wasn't a definitive angle they showed with him in it though).I genuinely thought it was off as I watched it, couldn’t understand why the linesman couldn’t see it, it should have been uppermost in his mind as he knew the keeper wasn’t in the equation. Given there was close to a yard in it he should have seen it.
I accept that you don’t know what would have happened after that, possibly lost 1-0 but it was a bread and butter decision for the linesman.0 -
If 1988 was the first ever game I've a feeling that was Steve Archibalds debut for Hibs. Scored twice I think, maybe 3-0?
Confirmed now, and less than a fortnight until the game. Day and KO time to be confirmed.
Hibs first visit to Stranraer since Jan 2002 - 0-0 draw, followed by 4-0 up at Easter Road.
Oh, and we only have 3 crucial league games against the teams immediately above us in the table between now and the tie!
Will be the tenth meeting between the clubs - all since 1988.0 -

You must have missed last season where teams sauntered through the Hibs midfield at will. Now they don't.I’ve said this before as well but I also don’t get the Gogic hype either. I think that’s 4 times I’ve watched him this season and he has been a passenger in each of them. I’m surprised to see him get so much praise again. I just don’t see it.0
