Hibs/Hearts Select
Right lads, in the absence of the beautiful game, I thought it might be a bit fun to put together a Hibs/Hearts select.
Rules:
1) It's a 442 formation - we'll start at the back and move to back 4 etc
2) There must be a 5/6 split
3) The time span is 30 years - 1990 to present
4) The player suggested must be agreed before we move on to the next one (in the absence of members coming on regularly because of other commitments, I reserve the right to say we can move on to the next player)
Happy with those rules? If no, bugger off.

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
Right, I'll start with Goram. Any argument?

Niemi. Ranked alongside Cruikshank for me. Cruikie & Goram were better-than-great at their best but had their off days. Never saw one from Niemi tho admittedly he wasn't around as long.

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
Do you genuinely reckon Niemi was better than Goram?

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
Happy with Goram because if there's to be a 6/5 split then I don't want to end up with some journeyman clown like Keith Wright in at the end

Ok, I'm outvoted.
But Goram only counts as 1 right? He's not getting 2 places 😉

Feel free to argue his point while we're waiting on Jim's opinion.

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
Goram is a snidey horrible little prick that I wouldn't waste urine on if he was on fire. As for having him in any team he ranks along side Mc Gregor who I would rather boot in the baws than play him.
Not that I have a strong opinion of either mind.
I would have Ally Niemi, the only one who can fall UP stairs! ( one for the oldies that were there. )

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
So two for Goram and two for Niemi. What a dilemma!

Re: Hibs/Hearts Select
Forrest or Ian with the deciding vote then. Warning you though, 6/5 split and you're no going to want Riordan and Griffiths up front...
