Anyone else see Polvara 'crossing himself' after passing to Mio as he bore down on goal? 🤣

I think he was just counting how many times he’d touched the ball since coming on 🤣

Hopefully will give the players a bounce now moving forward. 

It's been a difficult start to the season and we haven't played great a lot of the time but we're in a final nonetheless. 

And the 'useless idiot' of a manager has finished 3rd, got us into Europe and reached a cup final despite being a rookie which is nae bad going despite some errors being made along the way. Hopefully gives him the confidence to let the players play a bit of football now.

Ooft, a post about the manager that’s not depressingly negative. A collectors item.

[Snelders Snottters 89]

The sending off helped us as we had to go totp a back 4. Would Barry wake up we this 5 at the back shite. Anyway onwards & upwards.

The final should always be in March. Having to play frankfurt 3 days before it is lunacy. Fuck the SFA.

So was anyone else getting MASSIVE Mr Tumnus vibes aff Clarkson today?

Robson must be your brother then, 2 Chinese coolies. Whose favourite saying is ALONG-AH-HOOF-AH-BAA.  And both of you keep off the laughing gas. 

Wow.

This is next level dribbling shit from your brain.. what a fuckwit

[afc_blockhead]

Come on you reds. Not pretty. Some Robson questions even on how he set up today 

But in a semi final who gives a fuck.

League cup in the bag

To be fair, the Huns are in Seville on the Thursday before. 
I’m assuming they’ll pump the other Huns tomorrow.

Good point. First sensible thing you’ve said all day.

We didn't deserve that at all. Utter pish.

Good.

GET IN.

Fuck Hibs.

We've had tried and tested managers (Alex. Miller, Paterson, Calderwood, McGhee, Goodwin) in recent history that never got us to a final but Robson has done it at the very first time of asking.

Surely that's a grear achievement, regardless of how some supporters feel towards him.

It defies all the odds. 

We were battered in that game and by a combination of sheer luck and even more sheer luck we made it to the final. 

There was nothing strategic or tactical about that result... it flew in the face of logic and the balance of play. 

I'll say it again, we're in the final despite Robson.

[Granite95]

Played awful but who cares? 
Great finish from Miovski, easily best striker in last 25 years

MacKenzie let himself down badly

The seethe from John Collins and Hibs fans is delicious

Strange ol' times we're living in, current manager got us 3rd, into Euro group stage football, and now into a domestic cup final, all whilst on the verge of open mutiny and seething hatred amongst the support. To be fair, not since a 5-6 away win against Motherwell in October '99 under Uncle Ebbe have I felt this utterly confuffled

He done really well in that moment, the concern is though, each game after 65mins you can see his energy drain, he keeps battling away to his credit, really shows our lack of depth in that area.

Haha he did tho, boy sold the Hibs jerseys playing for a foul. 
 

Shinnie wasn't getting him.

He won the ball back then went on a run, that was the start of our goal?

That's a lottery a performance like that

[JumboJET]

Is Miovski the best striker we've had since McDougall?

True min, I think we should rest 3 or 4 for frankfurt as we're not qualifying, Final has to take precedence surely.
