A 1-1 result ensures Hecky's unbeaten league record is still intact and Hibs still ahead in 5th spot but this match result is a tad deceptive in the fact the Hibs should've really won this game comfortably by two or three goals and were by far the better side playing against a very ordinary and single-dimensional Hertz team with some dodgy defending that was self-evident again!! One can actually see why they have been jeered by their own fans for the past couple of weeks and the muted celebration of a draw by their fans is a delusion and "papering over the cracks" lol!! As for Hibs? Well they've gotta take their scoring opps and when a bogey ref like Thomson actually awards Hibs a very rare pk during a 14 year period, you f###### well take it and say "thanks very much" after battering the baw on target and "in the pokey"!! McNulty either "choked" or just proved he is only human. Anyway, no great damage done and I am personally not too bothered whether we attain that last Euro place or not - IMO too much of a distraction and it's importance is a bit of a misnomer, just something to talk about! Lastly, I thought Hecky's post match interview was more interesting than the game itself, which was distinctly lacking real quality and descended into a typical derby spectacle. His comments were very articulate and were the words of a "learning manager" who was quickly moving on after analysing where Hibs failed to apply themselves on a Hertz system that he insisted was "there to be exploited". We'll do better next time around and learn from it! I believe him because he is a far superior manager compared to a minion like Potter but that is not too difficult to achieve anyway!!
