Hibs v Ross County, Sun 8 Aug, KO 3.00pm - 0762 - 06-08-2021
We'll see how Hibs fare after their sterling efforts v Rijeka on Thurs night. Hopefully our fine form will continue to deliver another 3 pts "in the bag". C'mon Hibs!

Lets hope we continue as we left off last night but this is exactly the sort of game we can struggle with after a good performance.
C'mon Hibs, keep up the performance level............and practice defending crosses into the box!!

3 points today please. And a clean sheet.

Been a very good first half, hard to fault really. An excellent team performance, 3 goals to the good and heading to the top of the league.
Only downer is the appalling standard of refereeing, with county being allowed to clog their way around our players without punishment.

FT 3-0, and Hibs top the Scot Prem tonight with another fine display of footie with Boyly the "pick of the bunch" and his pace giving County all sorts of probs. That 1st half display really was exceptional with fine cohesion from back to front, Boyly unsurprisingly scoring the opening goal, Doig setting up Magennis's headed goal from about 8 yds and Doidgy scoring his trademark headed goal all in the 1st half - GREAT STUFF!
I fear that bids will eventually come in for Doig after his vg first outing for Hibs.I'm tired of debating poor ref standards in Scotland, but the awful refereeing, so early in the Scot footie season, persists and is absolutely glaring in a good number of Scot footie matches up to now. There have been new additions gradually making up the group of Scot refs who officiate matches, but I don't see the improvement in standards that would be clearly self-evident and finally stop talking about such dreadful ref performances that lack common sense and awareness of what's happening on the pitch.

Aye, good all round performance and we were able to ease off in the second half. Little disappointed in the response from Ross County who never really gave it a go...........but not complaining. My seat today was only 4 away from my season ticket.........almost normality.
On to Thursday night where a much tougher challenge awaits out in Croatia.

Quite pleasing how we managed the game 2nd half.....kept control and didn't concede but didn't bust a gut either with midweek in mind.
Croatia is going to be tough but we have given ourselves a shout.
Doyle-Hayes has really impressed me. Good signing, very comfortable on the ball.

A possible draw and pk shootout on Thursday Jim!!? IMO they are the favs to win the tie, but it could go that way depending on the way the game develops in the early stages.
