Poor game but we were desperately unlucky up front. Can't really blame Brown for that.

 

Question though, are Robertson and Hughes capable of finding their own teammate with a pass? I'm sure they found more men in green than red today.

 

I can blame Brown for his failure to make positive substitutions though.

 

Leaving both full backs on and taking off Hayes was criminal, and wholly negative.

 

It was same against Dundee Utd in the New Year game, the win was there for the taking but we settled for a point. As long as we have this mentality in the dugout we'll be mediocre at best.

How we failed to win that game, I will never know. Same old problem. Hopefully they'll be working on bringing in a striker, wouldn't hold out much hope though.

 

There were positives though and I thought Pawlett, Osbourne and Milsom were among our better performers. In fact, Milsom's a class act. They rarely threatened and looked to kill the game and hoped to snatch it - horrible Hibs team.

Hughes was pish i can now see why a few on here dinna like him. Thought milson and pawlett did well until they tied near the end. Ozzy was motm for me although it looked like he pulled up near the end

 

 

I'm one of them.

 

I was really not overly impressed with both the signings of Rae & Hughes but admittedly I actually thought that Hughes would be the better of the two cos Rae has very little pace.

 

I will happily admit to being wrong on that in the sense that Rae has been better than Hughes & a lot better than I thought he'd be (over all) but Hughes (imo) has been pretty much shite.

He may have had a couple of good wee flicks & runs earlier & the odd well placed pass & fooled a few into thinking he looked the business but I really do not see it at all.

He's been mostly shite for us & I hope he leaves soon cos we need better than him.

Enough of the "experienced" signings now Broon & get in quality now please for next season.

 

How the fuck Hughes got a full game the day I do not know.

Watched it on SKY, thought the lineup looked promising with Osbourne, Hughes, Milsom and Pawlett back in. Had a good start and looked the much better team at the beginning, but as the match went on too many passes were going astray and we had no answers to Hibs packed defence with no space for Hayes and McGinn. Pawlett had a couple of good touches, but there was nothing very incisive. Too much of a tendency to play too much intricate stuff on the edge of the box. Shaunnessy had a good start but then seemed to drift out of the game after a while, but at least we didn't appear to miss Anderson. Thought Rae made a good contribution today. McGinn has gone off the boil a bit and no-one else seems able to score. No point in calling for Brown to go now, but we badly need some new ideas, hopefully from an inspiring, young, ambitious manager next season.

What a fucking crap game of fitba. The 1st half was gash. The second half was better from our point of view but we didn't realy create any clear cut chances. Hibs were woeful. Really shite. I can honestly say that Millertime is better than Griffiths as at least Millertime managed to steal from Tesco and not get caught.

Really need folk to start hitting shots on the edge of the box.

Didnt think the overall performance was too bad! Seen a lot worse but also seen a lot better!

 

Langfield - Another clean sheet, few of his kicks were awful! Some of them got us into good attacking positions though!

Shaugnessy - Not his best game, but like seeing him get forward! Definitely makes us stronger attacking.

Osbourne - Solid! Really impressed me in CB, I'd keep him in there for a next week! Handle LG no bother

Reynolds - Constantly launches the ball forward to nobody! Loosing the plot with him.

Robertson - One of his better games i thought, still not particulary good though. passing was poor.

Hayes - Done well. looked dangerous.

Hughes - Awful. Dont see what he adds to me team that others dont.

Rae - as he is getting older i think hes forgotten how to shoot! Had a few good opportunities of the edge of the box to take a hit.

Milsom - Was very good to see him back and think he played really well! Used the ball well, got up and attacked. was pleased with him.

Pawlett - Like having a new player! What a difference, was really impressed. Didnt expect that, but still room for improvement.

McGinn - Proving he is human by missing the penalty, but always looked in control of the ball when at his feet. Good touches. Need more support though.

 

Subs - No one done anything worth noting!

 

MOM - Pawlett, Milsom or Osbourne!

 

Hibs - Was impressed with McPake, the others were there for the taking! Always nervous when LG is on the ball. But we handled him no bother.

I thought we played the best we have in a while today. Just a shame we never bagged the pen.

 

 

Dreadful, how we failed to score against that shite defies belief.

 

Cant even think of many chances we missed.

 

Another scoreless game, shite.

 

 

Hibs were fucking shite Today.

Yet we couldn't beat them :clangers2:

 

I hope Hibs are as bad next Sun :crossfingers:

But I hope we are good enough to beat a shite Hibs team :crossfingers:

 

I doubt Hibs will play that badly again this season & get anything other than a loss & I also doubt that they can be that bad next Sun in the cup. I just hope we're more up for it.

Sums it up pretty well.

 

Just dont understand why Broon waits so long to make subs or why he takes everyone back for corners, we have the perfect players to be dangerous on the counter!

Agreed. Hayes, McGinn, Fraser and Pawlett are all great on the break.

 

You can thank the GWB for the fact that we never see it.

Nae read rest of thoughts yet but thought it was as one sided a match as ever likely to see with Milsom running the show but for some reason felt we just never looked like scoring and pushing on our domination. Hibs absolute plum and had about 2 meaningful attacks the whole match.

 

Subbed off our 3 best players today and looked even less likely to score in end!!

Most of our shots were from distance as failed to create much. But know exactly what you are saying - so much times ball came nicely to be hit and decide to take touch and get closed down or decline shot to play sideways.
