Wee-Bey Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hopefully get a another couple of right backs in, in the January window and we're good to go. Still looking a bit short in that department. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snifter Pee Rot Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The boy Naismith is a stop gap until James or SDG are back. Hallberg and Porto need added in asap, and Vela has to get a run a proper run. Hexit can still turn this around imo. All the roasters on .net can gtf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShrooTheLookingGlass Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I'm holding back on the seethe at loaning out Mackie in the assumption that we are in talks with free agents who can cover left back, holding midfield and a Striker. Wasn't James considered to look uncomfortable at left back in pre season? Maybe the plan is to put him in the defensive midfield role.....but we'll probably just continue playing this 10th rate knockoff Kloppball crap and keep pretending Mallan and Vela are 'highly mobile' midfielders who are capable of protecting our defence and winning back possession. Naismith is proven at this level at least, Peterborough fans seemed to reckon he always gave 100% if not the most skillful or the quickest of players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly if the feeling on .net is to be rid of PH then I am totally with them. The manager is a clueless twat, losing the only cover we have for Stevenson on loan to Dundee, signing our 4th RB, and we now have no DM at the club........... not one player that can tackle and protect our decrepit defence thats lost 400 goals this season already. I am dreading the derby now and unless - by some fuckin miracle - we have 2 or 3 "quality free transfers" incoming then we are utterly fucked until January. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 What happened with Heckingbottom? He had His winning consistently last season did he not? Why the sudden drop off in form? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s also decided our midfield should be as lightweight and weak as possible to ensure the defence get no protection whatsoever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and he only had us winning against the bottom 6 cannon fodder (i.e. the likes of us this season !). The only real positive last year was the win v Hearts at Tynecastle which was excellent but kinda allowed some of us (including me) to pretend things were going ok. Hibs Cathro, unfortunately 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Shows how you end up with the same old names getting jobs in Scottish football though. Cathro and PH were left field appointments and for differing reasons look to be flops so people just stick to what they know. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Day Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I have been doing a bit of work at one of Edinburghs golf clubs recently and Alex Miller is a member. Maybe I can ask him to come out of retirement???? Spoiler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grass Is Greener. Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I’m not ready to completely write off the new signings tbh. Everyone is playing shite apart from Flo and Allan. Hecky has got the whole squad playing dug shite not just his new players. I’d like to see them with a new manager in a formation that is going to suit us before sending them all back down south. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conboyhibs Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 When fit, what does everyone see as our strongest XI? I suppose it's hard to say without seeing the new boys too much. I'd go for: Marciano James Porteous Jackson Stevenson Hallberg Allan Vela Boyle Kamberi Horgan Subs: Maxwell Hanlon Doidge Naismith Gray MIddleton McGregor 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was really good a couple of times last season when he came on against the old firm. This season he’s not played that well. Got absolutely roasted at Ibrox but our manager could be blamed for that. General consensus is he’s a better left midfielder than left back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have preferred him to stay as competition for Stevenson. I think he'll do well in the Championship. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can move James or Naismith in to cover Stevenson, never been one to fixate on players having to be left footed to play on the left. It's preferable yes, so Stevenson is first choice, but not going to make a huge difference. Mackie can be recalled in Jan if needs be. It's obvious he had to free up a wage to get Naismith in.

sergie's no1 fan Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I reckon the Hibees will take to Naismith.He is like an old fashioned steam train going up and down the right flank for 90 minutes. Will chip in with some assists and goals too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staggy1929 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 If Naismith plays the way he did in his last season at County he'll be one of the stand outs for Hibs this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our idiot of a manager will probably have him on the bench behind a one legged and now sadly broken David Gray. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
