Time stood still when with Suttons header in injury time.

We were ok. Hearts were slightly better side, but we were positive and we showed great fight this time.

Much more of that please.

Well that's good to hear. It was all doom and gloom on the BBC ticker about how shíte both teams were.

Wasn't the greatest game in world alright. I think Hibs just did not want to get beat. We were poor and gave ball away too easy.

We had few chances of our own too. We just seemed lack little belief that we could go and get 3 points. But for effort and grinding out a result much more positive.

Doyle was out wide which did not make much sense. Thought McGivern had good game.

You will still see people pissed off with Fenlon though if you go into any supporters Forum tonight or tomorrow.

But:
4 Points from Celtic and Hearts in back to back games.
We are 1 point off last years total with 16 games to go.

Bit of perspective.

Fenlon playing strikers on the wing in games he doesn't want to lose? Expect to see a lot more of that. It still wont make sense.

The_Kew_Tour

Oh and one more thing. Whoever spat at the Hearts ballboy will hopefully receive a lengthy ban.

No place in the game for it.

To be fair neither team played much in the way of quality football. This was very much a blood and thunder type derby game. But in its own way it was an enjoyable game to watch.

Happy with season so far?

I am personally. Yes inconsistent to hell, but least we show signs that we are going places. All be it small.

Camac Hibs

I think the vast majority of people are happy with the progress so far - the defence is certainly the tightest we have had in years and our midfield has a bit of steel and competence at least. The entire team appears 100% committed to the cause which at some clubs is taken for granted but for us in the context of the last few years is revolutionary.

There are going to be some detractors to Fenlon's style as a lot of hibs fans would rather lose 4-3 than draw 0-0 and expect attacking or perhaps even reckless football. However I reckon everyone appreciates the huge improvement on the last few seasons and that is down to Fenlon putting his team together.

We really need an attacking midfielder, unless he is going to move Cairney more central, and if we lose Griffiths which looks increasingly likely we are going to struggle for goals. But the outlook is positive - the fans have played a part in this over the last few seasons as well, despite the horrors of last season a much more positive atmosphere is being generated at Easter Road and away from home. Section 43 Ultras have certainly contributed and there is much more of a sense of common purpose between the fans, players and club

Some people are best not use Twitter and good old Leigh is one of them.

He is a clown and fool for what he did. Even though he came back and apologised its not good enough.

He's a headbanger Bill!

The smartest thing he could do is close that twitter account, never seen a lad to shoot himself in the foot with such regularity! He'll cop a big punishment for this I think! Seems like he's Hibs headbanger for the rest of the season. Keep him focused on football and he'll be alright!

Thing is though he does come out with some reasonable stuff too lot of the time. Can be very balanced, but when he does come out with beauty its normally Media loving stuff.

The_Kew_Tour

Good news with Leigh Griffiths and Ryan McGivern extending the loan deals till end of season

Big Boost!

The_Kew_Tour

Ah we are great against Celtics and Hearts, but tis those little feckers from Ross County, Dundee and ICT tat ya have to be careful of.

When we go goal down away from home we never come back now. Not good enough. I know the season has seen progress, but wheels coming off slightly now.

ferrigan101

Have been in work all night. As soon as I seen that Sproule had scored I stopped looking at the live scores feed... Just knew we wouldn't come back from that.

Camac Hibs

Hopefully Sunday's result can give us some belief in the league as we are starting to fall away. Shocking game but some great performances - none better than Ben Williams who has only let in 1 out of the last 6 penalties he has faced.

Am happy enough with drawing Killie away in the next round. We have done pretty well out of the transfer window, we just need to support our forward(s)

highlights are worth it just for Deegan's 30 yard screamer at 5:25 - hopefully this might encourage him to get forward a little more often

Was never a peno for Dundee there.

Unlucky not to get 3 points

The_Kew_Tour

Crazy last 5 minutes there.

1-0 down when McGivern gets equaliser on 85th minute, but Kilmarnock respond straight away to go ahead again pretty much from the kickoff, only for Griffiths to salvage a point, with 2 minutes to go.

2-2 full time.

That will do fine. Thought if we had nicked it we might have jinxed ourselves for the weekend.

I am however rather concerned about us conceding a goal to somebody called Jude Winchester :eek:

I have just gut feeling we wont be beaten at weekend.

Dont know why, but we seem to be doing Ok in cup games against teams like Kilmarnock. It when we get to last 4 and finals is when things go little banana on us:pac:

I am fairly confident we wont lose. I actually reckon Fenlon has prioritized the cup, not sure what difference that will make but there is no question we wont show up.

The_Kew_Tour

Looking forward to game tomorrow although little more nervous then I was during the week.

Hopefully we get result. Draw would be OK IMO.

1967

I am actually quite confident of a win today especially if they play anything lke they did last Sunday,then we get Celtic in the semi final

The_Kew_Tour

4-2 to Hibs!!

It's our year!!!

The_Kew_Tour

The draw fro semi final will be made tomorrow at 1.30 on SSN for those interested.

The_Kew_Tour

Got Falkirk.

Can't complain although it be sickener to get bear to them if we do.

1967

Was hoping for Celtic but at least if we beat Falkirk and Celtic beat Dundee Utd we have european football next season

The_Kew_Tour

Derby day!!

Well overdue win against them in league.

KingdomYid

Absolutely criminal decision there, that was as bad as the Pedro Mendes at Old Trafford.

Jelle1880

Wtf, that wasn't given ?

Horrible call if so.

edit: Seems like a lot of bookies are paying out on Griffiths as FGS.

PauloMN

Hibs were robbed there. Sooner they bring in goal line technology the better.
