Team lines could speak volumes.  :004:  Players who are under transfer speculation may have picked up little knocks.  :003: Therefore not being cup tied and possibly worth a bit more if they are to be sold.  :023:

[Scotty]

so what you are telling us is that Rankin is not playing ? guess we will see the team lines soon.

[+L_G]

:rotflmao:  You are just too smart for me Scotty, but that might be a possible scenario.  :015:

[+Gringo]

Why haven't we scored our 1000th goal yet?

[strathyjags]

i,ll be very angry with the boar if they sell rankin,theres no need to :33: :008:

[+L_G]

Don't want to take this thread off topic, but you are right they don't HAVE to do anything, but if he wants to go then why try to keep him.  They are right to hold out for a reasonable amount of money, but I also believe that they will keep him if they don't get a suitable offer.  Radio saying that as well as St Mirren and Falkirk, Aberdeen may well also be interested.

6 changes for Hibs  :017:

No Rankin, Proctor or Wyness.

he,s under contratc for 18 mnoths so should be told he,s staying end of,why let players dictate to the club,he should of thought about all of this before he signed for ict

[Scotty]

Can we keep the Rankin transfer talk to the thread thats already there please.

[+L_G]

I would hope that the 1000th goal will be relevant to today's game.

I hear the boar is not to be messed with...

Not sure about this team selection today  :024:

Fingers crossed it doesn't back fire.

Surprised to see Deano on the subs bench as well - Brew seems to be picking the subs at random these days!

i agree, think we are missing a link up player between midfield and our strikers in todays team

[EWS]

1-0 Hibs, Shiels.

[+CaleyD]

Oh Horlicks!!!!!!

[Scotty]

feck.

unfortunately, cant hear this today as Scottish Cup is blocked overseas. having to listen to "open mic" show instead ... 2 goals in Falkirk V Dons game in a couple of minutes 1-1. Hearts just scored too. now 2-1 Aberdeen

[Jay_7]

Sounds like we're being pished on...  :007:

:32: :33: keep it on topic please

[+L_G]

Sounds like we started well, but lost the plot after losing the goal

[Guest birdog]

Commentary team have mentioned we could do with Rankin in there, been left out due to all the transfer speculation they say.

[+CaleyD]

We need to try and get our composure back and start playing our own game or this could prove a painful day.

[RichieKass]

Commentators are speculating the midfield is missing Rankin a bit, here's hoping the team fielded today can cut the mustard - i feel we are fielding a bit of a sub-par team to be honest.

[Scotty]

On the "open mic" show we can hear the reactions from the commentators at all the grounds - sounds like Mike Fraser has made a couple of decent saves  ?
