Not turning dominant possession into goals is. As far as statistics are concerned, Hibs 64% possession and 10 corners to 3 would suggest that we were the team with the intent to win the game, but, as happens much too often, we didn't.
richie, if we had a fit,reliable goalscorer we could probably go for teams that played like st mirren yesterday, but we don't. So we have to play more a more possession based game instead.
And we know what will inevitably happen in certain games hibeejim eh! We'll drop points because of too many scoring opps squandered!!! We all previously observed what kinda striker we needed to get out of this league and that striker was named, Leigh Griffiths - a sniffer of a pen box CF and one that would've done the biz in this shit league. Lets be frank about it - we needed a CF of a similar ilk and Hibs have conceded on that weakness/omission alone!!!
