Hibs, Hibs, Hibs, Hibs, that was not good enough. Saints played well, they are a good football team, but have nothing up front, yet we gave them two goals. We carried three or four players tonight, I would drop them all. We also subbed one of two of our best midfielders, whilst leaving the chancers on, work that one on out?
It was a good, open game, as I said they are a good team, we can be too, but not tonight. I reckon Paul Hanlon started with an injury he knew he had, he was rotten right up until he went off. Daz came on a done fine for a man a yard slow. Porto was pretty poor too, way too many mistakes. Paul McGinn is a glint of good in a lump of very average shite, two goals and some desire. My nephew reckoned his passing was off, I would say the players he passed to were.
At half time I phone the Leith Polis, and reported Mallan, Newell, Nisbet and Boyle missing, I phoned with 10 to go to add that Doidge too was missing. The polis asked I call back in 48 hours as all five had been seen in the HIbs changing room at half time, four hiding, one crying out for a good pass.
As I said, positives was Super Paul's two goals, Sean Mackie did well, given he was his own on the left much of the game, Murph had 60 smashing minutes, Gogic stopped them somewhat, we took him off and looked poor without him and the goalie lost two goals with very little to do???? We are a decent top six club, nothing more.
The team....
Rocky, very little to do, lost two goals.
Paul McGinn, no much defending to do and scored two gooals.
Ryan Porteous, way too many mistakes for me.
Paul Hanlon, should not of started, he was error strewn when on then went off hurt.
Sean Mackie, I felt done well and is settling in fine.
Alex Gogic should not have gone off, he was working well behind the invisible men Newell and Mallan.
Newell, sorry offered nothing all game, was awful.
Mallan, he was worse than Newell, in both positions he played.
Boyle, one good move is not enough, rotten, drop him.
Murph, excellent most of the game, tried very hard and looks a player?
Nissie, looked lost and alone with no service, waste of a good player.
The subs
Daz for Paul after 20 minutes, a yard slow and partly at fault at one goal, but ok.
Doidge for Gogic after 55 minutes, why? Gogic was doing fine, and Doidge is back in his useless Heckingbottom days. Waste of a substitution and did not link up with Nissie.
Jamie Gullan for Nissie with 10 to go, if you wish to make a change like that give the laddie a chance to do something.
The Boss
Jack spoke on the radio, he reckoned we showed character and looked a threat? Mmmm? When exactly? Hanlon ripped his tights, will be back for next league game. He praised Murph, rightly so and he reckons he just needs a run of games, I agree. Best wide, again I agree. He reckons we have not had too many draws at home, sorry Jack, we have. He thinks good season so far, I say, good enough, could have been much much better. I do find us a wee bit boring.
St Johnstone
A good team with good players, playing good football on a much smaller budget than us. Who is getting this wrong at Hibs? Couldnae score in a brother yet two mistakes gave them two goals.
The Ref
The lanky streak of ppish was fine.
Man of the Match
Would have been Murph but for two excellent goals from Super Paul McGinn. Well done Paul.
Next up is Dundee in the league cup on Saturday at 3pm. Not too many changes Jack, but if you do, drop Mallan and Boyle, they were pish tonight.
Hibernian Forever!
