It's a great phone in tonight as Hibs finally get the attention that the performance deserved after Celtic's VAR tears since Sunday. How good a job is Gray doing? And a trip to Dundee awaits the Hibees... It's the phone in!

I love the Podcast but can't listen when there's all these faces and voices. With respect there's a lot of slavering.... Matty does a fantastic job but this version/edition of the Podcast for me undermines their brand. The main Podcast with Matty plus one or two is one of substance that's thought provoking. Matty will know his audience and reach of each version though so respect to him. For me I'll continue just with the main episodes. 💚

Certainly plenty slavering on last night's podcast. Ian quoted Celtic Park pitch is 40% larger than Leith San Siro pitch, maybe he thought we had a Polo team. Joe came out with another exclusive, we won't be signing an out of contract Barlasser next season as his wages are too high. Loved to know where he is getting his info 🙄🤯
 
Much better with just Matty, John and Colin but I'm sure they know the watching figures so the phone in one must be popular. Just seems to take an age to get round everyone.

I need to defend Ian here - he mentioned the 40% bigger figure back in May and it caused carnage with folk challenging it, but if you’d googled it at the time (which I did to find out what the script was), Google had Celtic Park as 10,000 square feet, and Easter Rd as 7,140 sq ft.
7,140+40% is just under 10,000 ergo Celtic Park’s pitch is 40% of Easter Rd’s pitch bigger, in area based on that info.

When he looked it up while we recorded last night, the information had been updated and the areas were given as the same.

As for Joe, like everyone, it’s just his opinion that we’re not signing Barlaser, I would hope nobody is taking anything that’s said on the phone in (or any of the episodes really - I’m the first to admit I’m an idiot!) as anything other than that.

The phone ins are really popular, they were a slow burner but folk tune in for them - I think people like having someone to agree with and someone that they think talks shite to disagree with!

As for taking an age to get round them, l can do something about that - I like to try and give everyone a good chance to get their point across and we have an hour to fill, but I can try mixing the format up a bit to go back and forward between folk quicker and see how that goes, always open to feedback so I’m happy to give that a go.

Aye maybe throw the questions about a bit rather than round the houses. Good you get plenty youtube comments in too 👍

You dinnae need Google to verify that the pitch isnae 40% bigger. Yes everyone's opinion is their own but to state we won't be signing Barlasser due to his huge wages is another story. Only thing I did believe was when you couldn't get oot the Escape Room 😉
 
Hibs head to Dundee looking for a huge 3 points on the road. We preview the game!

Hibs concede late again and it's a potential season ender - what have Hibs got left to play for this season with top six now secured? Are the late goals the symptom of a bigger problem?

There's not a phone in that doesn't go by without Joe coming out with a topper. He's about the only fkn Hibs fan that says we Hibsed It. FFS Joe do you not realise that's a phrase from the dark side. Can you not say we Jambottled It. After all they are the originals who fkd up on Saturday 3rd May 1986.

Hibs Fan Phone In!! Is fourth place back on? Hibs' accounts show another loss - but is it good news for Hibs? And who starts up top against Livi?

Well done Chris for basically saying Joe is talking pish that we couldn't afford Barlasser. Despite him stating repeatedly that his wages are too high for Hibs to be able to afford.

He then bangs on about wanting to see Andrews play ahead of Barlasser despite him saying every week that we shouldn't be playing loan players as they aren't our players. I think he's still losing sleep after Levitt the lovechild was kicked into touch.

Finally if he says one more time that Suto & Elding should be our strike force for the rest of the season I'm putting him on mute every time he speaks 🙄
 
Hibs welcome Livingston tomorrow as we look to get a huge three points on the board to chase down Motherwell.

Hibs head to Motherwell looking to claw back the six points between the sides. Can David Gray's side come home with the win?

@Longbangers Matty can you ask John if he feels no goals and dreadfully boring clueless football against Livingston and Motherwell at such a crucial time of the season is ok?

Hibs failed to win what Gray described as a "cup final", drawing 0-0 with Motherwell. With fourth all but out of reach, what next for the Hibs Head Coach? We hit the big talking points.

Thanks Matty. Wasn't meant to be a leading question in any way. It was prompted by John recently saying something like "What's wrong with just going along and supporting Hibs" That's a fair enough opinion but I was genuinely interested if anything could shake that resolve. Keir Starmer could get tips on how to dodge the question 😂😂
Good chat again 👍
 
Hibs are still the talking point as we go into the international break - two goalless draws in a row, what's working and what's not at Easter Road? We get the fans' views.
