    it was never a good idea tbh and always had the threat of this happening. celtics statement wasnt very clever either tbh. if that was my club i'd be bealin'

    lets face it, it was a jolly boys outing with a bit of training to make it look good. why else do you take a guy on crutches who aint gonna train.
    it used to be us who cocked up; glad we have wised up in public now. i dont blame hibs for being reluctant tbh.

    as you say Grant, why was a player on crutches taken on the trip, then he tests positive, yes it was within the rules but a PR disaster. if I was Hibs player i would not be happy playing them tonight.

    yes it wasnt too bad a result as they were apparently out played slightly, although the stats didnt say that.. got livvy at weekend with a similar team so i think that might be tougher. livvy are playing well.
    think gers are away again to motherwell; always a tough game and they have a new manager so we will need to be at best. the long term loss of jack and arfield is showing the lack of depth in df/m.. also with roofe out isnt helpful although alf has started to look his old self. would like to see a couple of additions.. dm.m cover and a r/forward. with stewart and jones leaving
