Hibs V St Mirren, 23Rd January 2016


Recommended Posts


Be interesting to see how Rae has line up in a match where we are clear underdogs.

You'd bet on Hibs to take this 2-0 or 3-0, but we haven't done too badly at Easter Road over recent years and they should be more fired up under Rae's leadership. I'll go for 4-1 Hibs.

Its never been wise to completely discount Saints chances in a game they look certs to lose, but I`m afraid this time we are a team with no fight and so will be defeated.

I`d be interested to hear how Messrs Rand and Farrell intend to change this losing mentality, particularly in home games where they have already a 100% record. I see that in todays PDE "Faz" says we have to improve our home record. He certainly wouldnt have to be Stephen Hawking to come to that conclusion.

As its early days, and they have inherited a dreadful bunch of imposters, theres no other way than to allow a bit of breathing space.They did take the job however and will no doubt have been informed that another relegation will see their dismissal, so theres a dozen days left to get rid of some loan players and other malingerers and recruit some footballers.

I would love to be pleasantly surprised.

I'm pretty sure the only player that we now have on loan is Shankland and i would be quite happy to keep him. Unfortunately, the other imposter we have in our team are under contract, therefore here to stay until the end of the season/contract expires.

Forgot about him, he is quite forgettable right enough. In that case there's one player on loan who can go back to his parent club and won't be missed. Doubt he will be costing that much if anything, with our deal for Celtic using the stadium.

I don't think we are using him right though. I think that he would be best played just behind a main striker as his pace would worry central defenders in this league where there isn't a really any quick ones, that and the fact that out on the wing he offers absolutely no delivery into the box.

His final ball is dreadful , so for me it dosn't really matter where you play him .

Out wide or through the middle will still have the same outcome .

His final ball is dreadful on the odd occasion that he hasn't already lost it before deciding to try a pass!!

And he is lazy. Every player in a team has to work hard. McMullan doesn't. That was one of the two reasons he was hooked at half-time against Thistle as he let the overlapping full back waltz past him time after time with no attempt to track back. Hence Gallagher at half-time and probably now holding down that position until further notice.

McMullan is fast - that is about the only skill he has.

Again Hibernian FC are charging Disabled people (Wheelchair) users the highest price for entry to the game. They charge is

the highest entry fee in the whole of Scotland. That combined with the highest price that people have to pay for a pie & Bovril.

It is little wonder when they have administration problems for the disabled. Not once in numerous times I have went through, excuses include the tickets not being valid, blaming St.Mirren for cancelling them, refusing to allocate other ones on the day, putting you in with Hibs supporters etc... etc.. A few years ago I remember a young man with downs syndrome not being classed disabled, fortunately some buddies clubbed together and purchased a full priced adult ticket for the man.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS HIBERNIAN FOOTBALL CLUB ARE THE WORST IN SCOTLAND FOR THE WAY THEY TREAT DISABLED PEOPLE.

Thank you billymehmet1 I agree with you 100%, Hibs are a disgrace. With regards to the point you raised about Dundee Utd, they are 1 of a select few that used to charge and as far as I am aware still do, plus you have to be escorted by a steward outside the ground to the disabled toilets, the last time I was up at Dundee Utd,s ground, that was when we were in the SPFL, they were in the process of changing the position of the toilets, this entailed them moving them to where the snack bar was and sticking a disabled sign on a toilet door, a door you could not get a wheelchair in, hopefully this was only temporary anyway we will see soon enough as both St.Mirren and Dundee Utd are likely to be in the same league next season.The prices Scottish Clubs charge in all leagues ranges from £0 - to £12 this to me is acceptable as it includes the price of a carer and given the standard price for an abled bodied adult in the championship is £20-£22. The main difficulty SMDSA are facing at the moment is cover for the disabled. Our own club, despite getting to the stage where plans were being drawn up for disabled cover, progression is at a standstill to the best of my knowledge. As a temporary measure last season and until now the Fans Council did pay for and provide ponchos. The best club in Scotland for the provision of disabled facilities, including cover, clean and well adapted toilets, free entry for wheelchair users and their carers etc... are Rangers. To date SMDSA are doing their upmost to have permanent cover provided.
