Lenny - don't be the same old Hibs! - 0762 - 22-08-2017
In today's EEN Sport Lenny uttering a wee reminder re past Hibs teams that suddenly 'flopped' with no form indicator that an embarrassing defeat was gonna materialise. Certain Hibs players really have to 'sit up and take note' of what is being said and the lesson to be learned from this match. One lesson for me after reflecting back to the Hamilton match is I'd never allow Docherty or Longridge (to a lesser extent) the 'freedom of the pitch and my own extreme 'measures' would be taken to eliminate those threats!!! Remember this was the same Accies team that should have lost 4-5 goals v Dundee in their previous match - their defence was 'skinned' time n time again by the Dundee forwards with Scotty Allan the chief offender who looks like he can't score a goal for love nor money and even scorning a scoring opp from the pen spot!!

There has to be a big reaction on sunday. Its a important game for us now.
I'm a bit worried at the way we fizzled out after the league opener and the game at ibrox where the intensity was high from the off. We have to be able to beat the likes of accies at home if we are to prosper in this league. That 2nd half performance last week was way too sloppy and complacent.
This is going to be a midfield battle and we are going to need to get the starting line up right.
