Yep! I'd agree with that change ritchiebaby - previously tried and tested!

As predicted, Bartley in the line up - just back and a spirited comeback and could've won it 'at the death'. Cummings' goal was a 'peach' of a clever header to give us a welcome life line and boy, did the guys grab the chance with open arms. His Hearts supporting bruv apparently threatened to throw his X-Box out the window if Jason scored against his team - he duly obliged with that cute strike!   Jason is fast becoming Hibs version of Hearts old Hibee striker, John Robertson, Cummings being a Hearts fan, with a Hearts family and was cruelly dumped on the scrapheap by Hearts to become a gardener. Resurrected by Hibs. this lad loves to play against Hearts and definitely has something to prove with a vengeance!! Unlucky not to score that poacher's goal in the 1st half - by how many millimetres was he offside and I can't blame him for running over and having a wee, humorous snide dig at the AR who flagged him!! Never a great game and no surprise TBF but Hibs grew into this game and I'd like to see the final possession stats - they must've been about 30%/70%, or thereabout, in Hibs favour! One of the best one touch moves of the game ended with Bartley not having that fine touch to drive into Hearts pen box to finish off what would've been a great well-worked team goal - very disappointing! Even more disappointing was Stevo's crazy headed clearance off the top of the turf to present Djoum with that well-taken goal - a fundamentally wrong decision Lewis as you put your laces through that through ball all day long son!    He could've atoned for that error when he drove through Hearts defence, second half, and sadly hit the ball at Alexander!   Five-a-side mode Lewis and ram the ball 'hard and low' past a despairing goalie - what a good goal scoring chance that was!!   At least Paul Hanlon bailed him out with that 'never say die' equaliser but why on earth was he booked by ref Thomson, whose unbeaten derby record for Hearts is still intact after all these years? He didn't do anything untoward!! Lastly, one wee dig at Stubbs and why he never uses a 3rd substitute - there were various Hearts players 'blowing out their arses' at the end of this match and why a high-energy player like Dagnall was not brought on up front by Stubbs is totally beyond me!! By any chance keeping him for the replay at unbeaten ER this season??
