I think folk have become so used to us being pish that they will look at today as being something we were due.
Having witnessed how poorly we set up today to play against a Hibs team who we have beaten on both occasions earlier this season then I think we can all safely acknowledge that Celtic will wipe the floor with us next week at Pittodrie.
Interviews on RedTV interesting...
MacLean looked absolutely gutted, like he was close to tears...
Considine saying we didn't get balls in the box and said "Obviously a lot harder for GMS to get up there when he's playing wing back"
Kinda shows that even the players were a bit mystified with the set up
We won 3-2.
McInnes realised the idiocy of 3 at the back & played our normal formation.
Considine & O’Connor linked up for the winner, using their pace & passing ability to slice through the Hibs defence.
You should’ve stuck with it.
Can’t you tell with the happy atmosphere in the posts tonight?
As many have said, he’s passable against the bottom 6 teams.
... but I’m sorry, we can’t have players who are liabilities in 40% of the games they play in.
I sincerely hope he’ll be replaced in the summer, but if DM is still here beyond this season then that’s unlikely as he loves Considine.
What a cvnt of a referee, Considine and Christie's bookings weren't even fouls.
Their 1st looked a bit offside and their 2nd came as a direct consequence of us not leaving an attacker up when defending a corner - I'll never understand why we do this.
Chidi was unlucky to get subbed, McLean should've been off before him but of course that'll never happen.
Major surgery in the close season. O'Conner must go, Deek talked to him in Dubui about extending his contract, as he has not responded, hopefully he's a goner.
Big Andy C, great servant of the club but time to move on.
Arnie, thanks a strange one for me, he's not great but never gets a consistent run. If he plays for Iceland at the World Club, we get 300, 000 Euros, could we honestly turn that down and release him.
I just felt we wouldnt beat Hibs this week, to get something out of the Celtic game is a must. If we could get a least a point that would be great
2nd place is douable, Celtic, Hibs, Hearts Motherwell are more than capable of taking full points from the Huns.
The problem for us, we go on mazy runs against the lesser teams which inflates the managements ego we become confortable.
Disspointingley, for us we are constantly thrashed by Celtic home and away, and to lose the Huns the last four times out is embrassing to say the least. Its seems to be a mindset we cannot get away from, we need winners in our side, we have few but we also have two many guys afraid to harden up and put the tackle in when it matters and pass the ball to another player in Red directly, instead we get balls hoofed high up into the sky hoping something comes of it.
We need to go back to basics, we have some really good players but something not working tactics and selection wise
