Hibs v Rangers, Sun 21 May, KO noon
#4
That more or less sums up my post-match analysis starting with three words - MARSHALL GAFFES AGAIN!!!!! Thumb down How many times has he done this to Hibs during the season????? Btw Rocky, our ex- goalie, apparently sitting in the West Stand watching Hibs this afternoon - is this an indicator re our iffy goalie situation and Hibs redress on the way??? We didn't need another goalie error like this one although I'm glad this ref, Muir, has been mentioned and vilified. That was never a free kick in a month of Sundays and for Marshall to embarrassingly concede to that tight-angled shot was a "slap in the face" for all Hibs fans in the stadium. That Tory Hun, DRoss, running the line as well!!! Rolleyes And Muir literally gave them every decision going, up to the point when they scored that crazy 1st goal in the 1st half. I agree they played this match like the "dead rubber" it was for them (a B team line-up as well) while certain Hibs players not up for it, Marshall not helping team spirit with that gaffe all the same!! Youann just doing his usual "running up a dead end alley" routine. Hendo as a sub??? You don't play him in this type of match and he was useless again - he could hardly even pass a ball properly from A to B!!! He'll be gone in the summer IMO. Campbell? Crap and "off the pace" of the game! Nisbet?? Start scoring the crucial goals son!!! This game could've been so different if this guy could've lifted team confidence by taking some of the goal opps that cropped up. Hibs needed a goal to make Rangers uncomfortable - couldn't do it and there were still goal opps "up for grabs" in this match. No surprise that Hanlon scored the consolation goal - one of few Hibs players with pass marks. Also the issues re Johnson's managerial skills prevail just like before. As previously stated, I believe Johnson has limited motivational skills as well as limited tactical nous esp during testy matches. It has become clear to many Hibs fans that certain players "show up" for a game when it suits them - not good enough. In this case I think Hibs should bring back "match win bonuses" - not a perfect solution, but it is one way to deal with this kinda problem. Anyway, we move on to Hibs v the Hoops at ER next Wednesday. God only knows how that will unfold!!?
