For years we worried of the consequences an away trip in Europe would do to our weekend performance. The boot is on the other foot now. Hearts head to Celtic Park on Sunday after returning from Switzerland in the early hours of this morning.
Their result against Zurich was perfect: a narrow defeat keeps the tie alive; manager Robbie Neilson will be alert to the possibility of delivering Europa League football with a sold home win on Thursday. Do not underestimate the emotional and physical strain put on the Hearts players as a result of last night’s game. I am feeling unusually confident about Sunday.
There is a similar story at play with another Glasgow-Edinburgh fixture this weekend. Hibs host Newco, who are between European qualifiers. Hibs, like Celtic, don’t need to bother about these games.
Newco’s next six league games include visits to Hibs, Celtic, Aberdeen and Hearts. This run will expose whatever weaknesses exist in their squad. Celtic have their own business to take care of, and we will be in the middle of Champions League group stage exertions during this period, but, the opportunity is there to build a clear lead in the title race.

another tom daly moment in the hips box , shocking
hibs
Boom….
Can we take some time to remind ourselves once again that TavPen is a crap defender.
That’s why he’s a hun lifer.
HH
Get in!
Don’t get me wrong,this mob are there for the taking as Hibs have just shown,if they would show a bit more bottle and bring their 2 front players into it more.
1-1
Not getting excited having witnessed Hibs two Centre backs
Scottish Refs being asked for consistency. Showing it in bucketloads. They consistently give all the soft decisions to Sevco and consistently fail to spot them when they happen to their opponents. They probably can’t see any problems 🙄
It’ll only cooont if they take points off thems………………
Hibs should be one up……………………..
The only difference again with Huns and another scottish team is the officials.
We will beat them of this I am sure.
D :)
thems definitely know how to fall down screaming
Can’t see anything to fear from this mob. Biggest worry will be if their chosen official has a blinder on Derby Day, and even then.
Red
The issue about The League tho’ is how much they are allowed to take advantage over the other teams to artifivcially ensure they keep neck an’ neck with ourselves.
We won’t get the rub o’ the green.
Thems’ll “beat” teams they shouldn’t have, them’s ll garner points they didn’t deserve and it’s wee nugget’s like wullie that helps all that along.
Fix fitba: empty wullie.
Lundstrum
Lundstram off. Straight red. Thug.
Tee hee…
Never a red..
Willie’s lost it.
HH
when we play the old firm we will have to beware of how easily they fall over .
so ex celt says that was not a straight red , heaven help us.
It’ll be downgraded to a yellow on appeal but it makes the last twenty five minutes interesting.
Aye straight red ,tackle knee high from behind
Shortie’s comment is that tackles from the scandi skouser are usually a yella……
Aye.
Goan Willie…..
a scything off the ground chop down at pace off the ground from behind …………..
cynicl but not violent says andy pandy.
a straight red given but could have been a yellow.
morelos cynical and deliberate back leg outstreched a deliberate foul on opponent
nothing in that.
lungstum is a thug who gets away with it time after time.
Moreorless aff now. Dirty wee Hun. Another yellow according to Walker. 🙄
Red model is 😂😂
hahahahha
mad alfie is back, feckin eejit of a man-child
Morelos, should have said fatty
showing who pays his wages and not calling it as it is.
Just seen a clip of fat Charlie on ssn,how unfit and over weight does he look.
Really,what kind of doing does Walker need.
Could put the Huns down to 5 men,Hibs are to cautious.
Jonny Kenny off to Queens Park for season loan.
HH
Fat Charlie???
wullie’s conscience must be at ‘im.
Won’t matter unless them’s points are dropped.
is andy pandy not got a monitor to watch.
not violent conduct, its just a flick, or maybe it the second arm (wtf)
its two attempted elbows to the face, he just didnt do it well enough and it ended up a slap ffs, thats the truth of it,
come on to fluck hibees
Walker is a snake of the highest order,
more or less had a sly kick at a hibs player earlier when he came and no action was taken by the ref and thought he could get away with anything.
Leftie…….
Walker (sp) ?
;)
HH
PSV will be enjoying the Hun workout…..
hibs against 9, they just dont move the ball fast enough, they take seconds with every decision, we are spoiled watching our celtic.
