Other sidenote, reading the Hibs forum, they started with their best XI which given how in control weve looked today is a very positive sign for us
This is their last match before the end of pre-season.

There's a good chance they're taking this match relatively easily given they're playing FC Midtylland in midweek.

Still, that being said, we've been comfortable in all these pre-season friendlies so far. No pause for concern other than injuries. Lots of positives and higher levels to be reached.


We could be better up top as i'm not expecting much from Abimbola and the lad thats just come on.

That's a lovely goal for Amario Cozier-Duberry.


I suspect that won't be the first time he does that this season.
Need to take him off (and Simons) - we don't want them getting injured as well.

Junior Hoilett on for them. There’s a blast from the past.

Taylor is a hamstring injury apparently. FFS. That’s another big hole in the squad that definitely now needs filling in next week or so. Already I felt we needed a proper left back now we absolutely do.

Some decent play since the subs have come on. We're not threatening however, but the chances have been coming. Free header at the back post and a number of shooting opportunities. Doesn't feel like it'll be long till we get another.

Did it in game second half. Not really sure it can be anything else? Not like it happened in training or first minute.

Sharples-Ahmed hitting the post now. Cameraman completely missing the build up. Close.

Must be the training techniques of the current and past regimes as it's happening all the time....

As a side, Schon RW? Not really working.

Can see the idea though. Same style of thing that we're doing with ACD's goal.


Hoilett hits the bar. First time we really looked like conceding.

Yer, just he's not good enough for it. CMG is rubbish on the other side too.
