No expectations from our support to beat the jambos?
I do not think so. The team showed huge bottle to get it to a replay and handled the pressure of the return fine.

Agreed on that score hibeejim. A huge Hibs support showed up for that replay and it was an expectant support that knew we'd beat Hearts if the team showed up! They deserved to win the match more emphatically too but they won it all the same!

Hibs have had a couple of bad games but we should be remembering the 17 or 18 games before hand when we managed to overcome 4 Premiership clubs in the cup competitions.
Our dip in form may well be due to the rumoured unrest in the dressing room or the bad influence Stokes has had since his loan spell started but hopefully we can get back to winning ways mid week. To those citing unrest in the team I ask this- If that were the case why did the players give their all to fight back from 3 down to Dumbarton and almost snatch a draw?
As a long suffering Hibee I can remember more than a dozen occasions when our bad run stretched into 8 or 10 matches so I remain optimistic that it will end soon.
Alan Stubbs was forced into making 7 changes for the Morton game and that upset the balance of the team, we played badly and lost 3-0.
The team need our support now, if we fail the run will just continue.

Wattie - because Stokes was not in the team.

What's the odds that Stokes will be in the starting 11 for every eligible game for the rest of the season?

We have already beats several top flight clubs this season so that wouldn't wash.
A bit like you.
