FT and a 1-1 draw on a cold, dismal afternoon when I'd rather play than watch a game of footie. In summary, Nisbet scoring a good goal in a first half where Hibs were not too bright for most of that 1st period. Motherwell's equaliser was expected in the second half and my disappointment centred on 1. Hibs not attaining a "clean sheet" and 2. The fact that Watt scored the equalising goal - I couldn't have emphasised his threat enough in the Hibs dressing room, if I was Hibs manager, to the point where I would've likely deployed a close marker on him with my instruction that "his jersey is yours"!!
Anyway, that isn't the whole story as Hibs really had enough scoring opps to end this match - not clinical enough in front of goal AGAIN! Nisbet scoring one goal, but scorning too many other opps to finish them off while Boyly "in absentia" with regard to positive striking. Young Campbell really unlucky when hitting their crossbar and it looking like it was just "one of those days". IMO we need other goal scorers starting to "get in on the act"! We've acquired 4 pts from the last three fixtures - not ideal, but better than the zero pts that many Hibs fans feared and that horrible losing sequence is over!! We move on.
