After another lacklustre display at Cappielow, and missing out on closing the pts gap on a stuttering Falkirk side, Hibs move on to their penultimate Championship fixture at ER v Dumbarton. So how does Stubbsy tackle this home fixture? Well I would like to see Hibs/Stubbs 'throw caution to the wind', and follow the fine traditions of decent Hibs sides of old - lets field a strong, attack-minded team and see how many goals we can score against Dumbarton on Tuesday night!! I thought we could've scored quite a few goals v a dodgy Rangers defence at ER last Wednesday night and we only scored three goals but deservedly won the match all the same, amazingly only by one goal!! For once, 'lets go for the jugular' as there's nowt to lose but lots to gain if we can somehow give the Sons a 'tanking' and take the initiative away from Falkirk with another home game to follow! I notice they've just saved themselves from a relegation play-off place. So hopefully they'll be in a psychological lull of relief. It could be just the right time to hammer into them early, keep pounding away at them and see where it takes us!! I hope Stubbs sees this match in the same light and absolutely goes for it with the proper Hibs lineup chosen and primed to succeed!! When I played footie, I was never one for giving up any match without a fight and the same applies to Hibs situation with two matches remaining!! Here's hoping for an epic night!!
