rik2304 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Might as well start this off. I've got about as much enthusiasm for the league starting as the team had for the League Cup. No new keeper yet and poor striking options. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueheaven Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 After the Ayr game Davidson said something along the lines of expecting to have another couple of players in by the time this game happens. You'd think that would have to be a goalkeeper and a striker (even if just someone on loan), but the way this summer's gone I wouldn't be all that surprised to see another 32-year-old winger or defender rock up. I reckon Muzz will come back into the starting line-up for this one and we'll see some configuration of a Muzz-MacPherson-Hallberg midfield three. Also noticed Gilmour wasn't even on the bench for the Ayr game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibbydoo Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 God help us! Can't see anything other than a very comfortable 3 points for Hibs. Sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezza70 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 It’s all very baffling that we can’t get the GK position sorted. I hope we somehow hit the ground running, I’m sure Hibs will be thinking we are there for the taking. Im excited for the new season and think if we can nick a point or even a win it might build confidence within the squad the downside for me is that if we cop a heavy defeat the external noise for CD to go will keep on getting louder. I voted yes for him to go on the second poll, but voted no the first time because of the double and that he is a saintee legend. I would love to know if the sponsors are concerned about our performances or are happy with the direction of the club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleveland-Saint Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 I'm flying in with great optimism for this. First live game for a couple of years and have lucky son in tow, born 17th May. Davidson will pull off some genius, so I'm sure I won't need to stick my cleveland saintee flag and pole up his rear and ignite the summer discontent riots of '22. blueheaven and california_saintee 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Thought parish started to look more comfortable against Ayr maybe just needed more confidence and game time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Think it will be backs to the wall stuff as Davidson will want to get a point on the board. Hibs have not had a great start to the season but Davidson will show them too much respect. Muzz will definitely be back. Maybe even Brown at wingback with McGowan at centre back.

ex-montrosesaintee Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 3 points would be about as likely and remarkable as winning a cup double. I'm really not looking forward to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueheaven Posted July 26, 2022 Report Share Posted July 26, 2022 If Hibs have been watching us they'll know that all they need to do is get back behind the ball in numbers whenever we have it, and let us keep passing sideways and backwards until we lose it. Then all they need to do is bide their time and wait for their opportunity to hit us on the break. It makes for painful viewing but I think we're going to see a lot of that this season (as we did last season). My only slight glimmer of hope comes from the fact that Hibs themselves seem to be in a bit of disarray going into the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
