The Proclaimers will be singing at full time again.

It was curious to observe the last remnants of departing Hertz fans who actually stayed at both main exits of the South Stand to observe the full rendition of "Sunshine on Leith" being sung by massed ranks of euphoric Hibs fans while the victorious Hibs players lined up providing the main observing audience on the pitch and appreciating it.
One word to describe this victory: Payback!! Esp after that last secs losing goal at Tynecastle in the previous Derby!! And four or five goals registered by Hibs today would not have have flattered them either, such was the slick, impressive manner that Hibs sliced through this stunned Hertz defence like a "knife through butter". There was definitely a pivotal moment in the 2nd half when this game teetered on a potential thrashing for Hertz in a match that should never been as close a 3-2 result as this one. Still, a win is a win and Hibs manager/coaches need to move on and focus on why this concession arose in the first place, esp when pushing on to opposing teams in such a forceful way is the better form of defence. So change it and strengthen up. Also a special mention for the young lad, Megwa, who had an exceptional performance in his right wing back role. He did very well until tiring late on in the game - totally understandable and he received a deserved standing ovation when hobbling off the pitch after such a sterling stint in his first Embro Derby. Job done!
