Well the pressure is increasing on Hibs to attain a positive league result after a hugely disappointing defeat v a bottom of the league side that really should've been dispatched by Hibs last night. Looks like Hibs will be without Boyly, our only goal scorer in recent times (are you listening Kevin Nisbet?????) although I'd say an appeal must be on the cards to challenge a vindictive referee who was not on my current list of dodgy Scottish refs of which there are already too many to name - a ridiculous situ in a footie league that wants to be a reputable one. Doidgy also out although again I'd suggest an appeal is in order - prob a lesser chance of success all the same! Anyway, I think JR will have to consider "matching up" to Calum Davidson's formation and tactics - play out a tight game of attrition esp with Nisbet not finding any kinda striking form. Nisbet's current positivity centres on his contribution as an inside forward feeding a more direct and effective forward alongside him. We need a goal/goals to win this match - not looking very likely! Bring in Scott Allan? Is Gullan good enough to even consider as an up front CF? Or elevate young O'Connor up to a first team debut in a CF position? Lotsa decisions for JR to ponder as he must "break" this losing streak asap. C'mon Hibs!
