2nd half was as good as we have played under Lennon,and barring the shoddy,biased ref we would have had another clean sheet with McGregor again excellent marshalling the defence.
McGregor could well end up with the season's POTY award at this rate - Mr Consistency at the moment and I'd say he's a better player than Scotland's Hanley! Re Cummings' demotion, rumours abound down Leith that Jason has had too many weekend 'benders' and Lenny has had enough of his antics. Also Jason doesn't 'get on' with the manager who certainly has a different style to Stubbsy's 'softly softly' approach to players. I dunno what to believe TBF but I reckon Jason must 'knuckle down' and start fighting for his place again as hopefully Holt and Graham start pushing on from here and bang in goals on a regular basis, which they can definitely achieve at this level.

Remember that this ref Muir is the same ref who was involved in that 'diabolical game changing decision' when he denied us that pk (and other unbelievable calls!) at ER in last season's 1st leg play off match v the Bairns!!How did the Pars' defender, Ashcroft, not 'see red' after downing Shinnie in their pen box for our pk goal? He was also the 'behind the goal AR' who was involved in that infamous Meekings' hand ball incident on the goal line to deny Sparky at Hampden in the Scottish Cup semi-final, Celtic v ICT, together with his ref buddy, Steven McLean!! A shocker!

They changed the rules 0762 I think I'm right in saying if the ref rules it's not violent conduct he awards the pk and only has to book the player. Shambolic rule tho
Good to see us get a grip of the game in the 2nd half well deserved 3pts
More importantly a great result to keep that huge Hibs away support happy after all the disappointing events of recent weeks! There must have been about 3k-4K Cabbage fans at the game - what a great turn out to back the guys and the Hibs 'did the biz' to increase our lead at the top of the Championship by 3pts!!
