This is probably a good time to play the Huns in Glasgow because they are definitely not playing very well at the mo. However, I remain cautious and the main reason for that stance is because of Hibs perceived fragility in defence. Even our goalie doesn't send out a great message of assurance because he looks unsure for some reason - been doing it for quite a while!!! Why? Does he need a rest and give Bogdan the opp to impress if ready to do so? Also Gray doesn't look match fit and prob injured again anyway. I've been "banging on" for long enough that I wanna see a competent midfield "battler", in the "hole" in front of our central defence, thereby "shoring it up" and making sure it is secure!! In other words - no more fragile defensive antics!!! I notice that Efe is still a free agent and I'd be tempted to take him back and use him specifically in that role as well as backing the CB partnership. The odd thing is that the boys have not lost a match for a while and long may that continue. However, there is that threat of a potential "doing" at Ibronx and JR's choice of starting line up needs to be "spot on" while trying to probe that Rangers back line in the same way that the Dons' recently did it very well but didn't punish those Huns! C'mon Hibs

Kamberi is doing my xxxx head in, all of a sudden he's got a mouth like the Clyde tunnel.

I've never heard a loan player acting like that, boys an absolute fanny.

IMO Kamberi is still a HFC employee and therefore the subject of a formal rebuke by the club to effectively "shut it" OR ELSE!! What is it with players who go to Ibronx and are infected by some kinda contagion, call it hunoravirus eh!! Magregor is another one of many who never said a "peep" in England - comes back to Ibronx and turned into a moron again??????

Same thing happened last year, the huns started off great then fell down badly after the winter break. They have been fortunate to not have any injuries to really any of their best players. Now they have, wee bit of pressure and guess what ?, performances drop off and they start dropping points.

I'd fancy us to do something here because we are scoring goals and creating a lot of chances just now but we are just defensively so fragile at the moment and starting games so slowly. Ross has to get the team spot on and playing from the whistle on Wednesday night or we could be in bother.

I know we weren't expecting anything tonight but we really should have been taking home a point, had it not been for some criminal positioning from our defenders near the end of the game to play the boy on I'm pretty sure we would have got it too. I don't think Jackson going off helped mind.... Sevco dominated the 2nd half, but they are struggling a bit for goals the now.

The positives are we had a decent shape throughout the game, worked hard and tried to take the game forward when we could. The negatives are losing goals late on in each half. Just losing goals generally - it's 2 a game just about. If it continues top 6 could be a fight.

The boy hagi played well for them. He looks very lightweight but he used the space well.

A pivotal moment - 30 secs before HT and manage the game out to the break!!! COULDNAE DAE IT!!! EXACTLY THE SAME AS THAT F### UP AT TANNADICE JUST BEFORE HT!! What a bad habit Hibs have picked up where they seem to be totally unaware of the clock "ticking down" and being disciplined enough to hold their 1 goal advantage!! Also I'm not enamoured with Hibs players giving away corners like sweeties. Again it is another forced discipline in coaching that you concede throw ins and not corners because this team scores a good number of goals from corner kicks!! A top six fight?? I actually don't care because Hibs will not progress beyond a top six position anyway!!! It has been a crap season and embarrassing to see Livingston consistently above Hibs FFS!!!! That is totally unacceptable although I will say that I wish there was a mass protest of Scot Prem clubs condemning that f###### shit artificial pitch which definitely gives them an unhealthy advantage!! Hibs should concentrate on the Scottish Cup and give it "their best shot"!

Our defending is shambolic. Ross has to see this, and should have done more in the last window.

Like you said I wouldn't be against offering efe a contract
