For me, Saturday's home derby match against our near neighbours can't come quickly enough. After a distinctly sub-par performance against Rangers on Monday, I'm looking for a big improvement in both commitment and attitude. There's a fair chance I might be up for this game and Hibs need a strong backing for this one.
Fontaine was strangely lethargic during Monday's game, considering he is normally so consistently dependable in clearing his lines. I'd still have him in the starting line-up, though, unlike Fyvie, who struggles for consistency. Keatings should also be sidelined if Cummings is - as expected - playing and let's have a couple of our pacier players on from the start. I couldn't be sure who the best replacements would be as it will depend on the availability on various loan players and Chris Dagnall.
We have the same defensive record as Rangers and Falkirk, but it is the goals scored column that is letting us down, so let's start off the New Year with a positive attacking performance with the goals to match.
GGTTH
Happy New Year to Hibbies everywhere.
