I expected the tempo to improve in the second half, but it never seemed to happen. More difficult to do that against a team set out to sit deep and hit on the break though. Also thought the pitch was a bit on the dry side for slick zippy passing.
Hibs were feeble up front, maybe that's a sign that the opposition are no longer confident that every chance they create will be a goal. Our own self-confidence breeds self-doubt in our opponents, it seems.
The three points was the most important target today, and now we have them we're already six points ahead of our "main title challengers" after only three league games.
Long way to go, sure, but Mark Warburton wanted us to set a marker for the season, six wins out of six does that.
