I'm wondering how many of you are aware of the reputation Stubbs has among the fitness coaching elite? Does this article from the start of the season still ring true at all? How damaging - injury wise - has his training been to the Hibs players over the length of the season?

Seems to me that Hibs are struggling with fitness at a crucial time of the season compared with Rangers, who put great emphasis on managing 'player loading' and as a result have the likes of Kenny Miller running his socks off for 90 minutes in a MotM performance against Premiership opponents, at the ripe old age of 36. It's also been vital in preserving the condition of the players we have to rely on week after week - the likes of Wallace, Tavernier and Halliday.
