I think they will be hurting after last week so will want to prove a point . Whether we are able to overcome a good, strong Gers side we will only find out next Saturday. At the end of the day its just 90 minutes of football and with a bit of luck they could just do it.
Feel he will need to play Bartley to add some bite in midfield as the others are fairly lightweight. I hope also that Dylan is OK and just came off on Friday to avoid further punishment on that cr*p pitch. We certainly perform better with him playing.
Stubbs will have a tough choice as to who plays in goal. After his fantastic performance in the semi final, Logan has not covered himself in glory. I know he kept a couple of clean sheets but in both those games we were so much on top he had nothing to do. In the play off games when the pressure is on he has not covered himself in glory. The first tie at Easter Road against Falkirk was a very poor game for him.....yes the mistake for the goal was bad but it happens to all keepers, but more importantly he didn't have that confidence around his box and his distribution was woeful.
I hope he plays 3 5 2 with Keatings and Stokes up front and then he would be able to drop Stevenson and have Gunnarson cover the left side. This would allow Bartley into midfield to clear up in front of the back 3.
Anyway tickets sorted and we will be there to cheer Hibs on hopefully to victory but if not we will still be back and have another go next year. Jambos are more pre occupied with the SC and our record and many Hibs fans wanted promotion over the SC so next weekend is a good day out win or lose.
Unfortunately without the Cup runs we would have been more of a threat to promotion but all the games to get to Hampden twice is bound to have had a negative effect but we are where we are so lets enjoy it.
