Somebody from the dugout was up in the directors' box every 5 minutes, taking instructions from Levein. Harry potter was heading for the dressing room before HT where he presumably told cathro the changes to make.
I felt a bit sorry for him afterwards,he looked like a wee student on the touchline compared to lennon - for all his failings he knows how to handle big games and he was literally driving us on from the touchline. Cathro on the other hand seems to not have any real presence about him and doesn't look like he would have much authority going up against senior players.
Like I said I felt a bit sorry for cathro.
I listened to Cathro's post match interview on SSN later on and concur with your comments re his status compared with Lennon. He seems to be a decent lad trying to get on in such a demanding role at Tynecastle but it won't be easy with that lack of experience and nous.
Re the positive outcome of the match itself, I think Lenny summed it up quite well when he said 'the boys wanted the win more than the Hearts' players'. I'd just add that I thought that more experience of the Derby fixture would be a big advantage for Hibs and that was proved on the pitch in the way the Hibs players pressed Hearts.
