KTID1869fc Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Can’t wait for this game, still a long way to go but it is a 6 pointer for a top 6 finish. Glad it’s Sunday too, tough opponents on a decent run and last night will have taken a lot out the team. Like to see exactly the same starting lineup but can see the temptation to rotate ahead of Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyman Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 I think Hibs will finish above Livingston. If we can finish above Livy then we will be top 6. Win would be great on Sunday but a draw will be fine. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcktid91 Posted February 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Hibs got the better deal by offloading kamberi and getting mcnulty back on loan. I reckon we'll win 2-1 on Sunday if we're at it for 90 mins 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the fixtures, the match we should be targeting to rest players is Celtic on Sunday week. After a hard match, and possibly extra time, against Aberdeen we should stand down a few of the old guard in a match where we can't reasonably expect to pick up three points.

maxyboy Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Tough game, reckon they're still very inconsistent even though their form of late has been decent. Don't gift them any easy chances and we've a good chance at home for another win on the trot potentially huge game in the run in, to finish top 6 we've got to take advantage of playing at home in 4 of the final 7 league games. Can see it being down to at home to livi on the last day right enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See what your saying, would love to take points of the other cheek as always but agree the other two games would seem ‘more winnable’ A changed up team would have the added benefit of fuelling the Sevco conspiracy theories, The utter meltdown from them after last night has been a delight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch14 Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 I'm still not convinced by that Hibs side. County supporting mate was at Easter Road last night and says to read nothing into Hibs from that scoreline - County atrocious. They've got good players and the creativity we lack. Should be a great game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking this as well, although it wouldn't be a popular opinion, we have a small squad and a hard run of games, I'd definitely rest some of them at Parkhead with a view to taking points in the rest of them. Ideally we would have a big enough squad to cope but it's a lot of football playing 7 games in 3 weeks for the squad we have,. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonbon19 Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Wasn’t too impressed by McNulty last year , Stu will have him in his pocket all game . ‘Would take Scott Allan though , he’s exactly the type of player we’re missing. A Killie win by the now famous 2 v 1 margin And I won’t even panic should we lose the 1st goal .

You sometimes hear the view that players prefer playing games to training and you can train lightly just to keep them ticking over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillieBus Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Mental tiredness becomes more of a problem but the team is hot at the moment, so a strong argument for going with the best team over the next few weeks. Winning teams feel less tired! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hibs are going to be good going forward but they're going to be ropey at the back. McNulty and Doidge seem to be working well and they have Allan playing behind them. Their midfield could potentially have Docherty, Omeonga, Boyle. They've definitely got decent strength. The problem for them is that they're not too hot at the back, guys like Hanlon and McGinn are unspectacular and they've got Marciano in nets who can be rotten at times. I think they've been playing three at the back to accommodate their stronger forward players so if that creates room for Burke and SOD to get in at them then we will cause them problems. Key is probably Power and Dicker keeping them quiet in the middle of the park. Good organisation, good shape and take our chances when they come along. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marciano nearly every time he plays against us, is outstanding. Hope this doesn't continue on sunday though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 looking forward to this one. lets hope we can keep our good little run of form. Sometimes a high scoring game against them so here is hoping it is and goes in our favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydiesback Posted February 15, 2020 Report Share Posted February 15, 2020 Greg Doherty and Scott Allan are their key men. Nullify then and we have a good chance. TBH while Allan is a very good player he’s never performed well against us at RP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One hit and Allan goes in a huff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
