    I wasn’t specific to be fair. But it’s still a bad record. Virgil and Pukki scores the last time we won there in the league

    In the League we've only won 1 of our last 8 games there.

    Since Rodgers came in they have took the most points off us in the League even though they weren't even in the League one of those seasons, they've also scored the joint most goals against us with Hearts since Rodgers even though Hearts have played us 3 more times than Hibs have played us.

    Our record there means absolutely nothing until it stops us winning the league which so far it hasn't.

    Need to keep some perspective here, we've played worse and won games.

    In saying that final decision making and shots were poor.

    Questionable starting XI and subs, and despite dominating the first half we actually lost control of the game in the second and got dragged into a battle, instead of sticking to what we were doing in the first 45 it became a bit frantic..
    We were getting in behind Hibs in the first half, and kept picking up the ball in between their midfield and defence, but we seemed to panic in the second half and starting just whipping crosses in, as well as firing shots in from outside the box instead of keeping them penned in and putting them under pressure.

    Still, with Hibs getting a little luck for their goal and the officials missing 2 penalties, we could and should have won the game

    Too many big players had an off day for us.
    Forrest, eddy and christie were all poor.
    Also those scummy * finally decide to put in a shift when we roll into town, surprise surprise.

    I never had a problem with Edouard going off he wasn't in the game and going 2 up top would have weakened our midfield which was already weakened by too many guys getting booked as they were countering us.

    Sinclair shouldn't have come on though, Hayes was doing well on the left and then once he came on we had Sinclair and Hayes both needing to cut back to attempt a cross - it wasted Bayo. If anything Rogic should have come on for Christie.

    Edouard was poor, yes, but we could maybe have stuck Bayo on for Boli, shifted Hayes to left-back and played Edouard slightly to the left and had a real go at winning the game. Edouard wasn't at his best today, but he's a very calm finisher and he'd maybe have finished one of the chances Bayo, McGregor or Hayes got late in the game.

    Agree with the bit in bold, I'd have brought Rogic on. Bayo plays right up against the defence and occupies both defenders really, and with two guys playing wide it leaves some nice spaces that Rogic loves to get into.

    I think we clearly don't work on them enough because our conversion rate from them is abysmal.

    We get denied 2 stone wallers and surprise surprise what rangers get awarded , the best (most awarded/taken) penalty taker Tavernier scored theve probably missed more pens than weve been awarded so far?

    Ano he wasn’t in the squad, but when we are chasing a win that is a poor sub.

    It not a disaster but it it’s definitely a pish result against a Hibs team who have been utter *
    Can’t win them all and certainly don’t blame Lennon cause the 11 players he picked should be more than capable of beating that team

    Still Top of the league but definitely give them scumbags hope cause as much as we destroyed them and slagged them they aren’t dropping many points

    I thought that the performance of the officials today was rank rotten . And I mean poor calls at times for both teams . You would think that the two very strong penalty claims we had , would have been called correctly using teamwork amongst themselves . Mind you , if we had shown a wee bit of composure in our shooting , we would likely have won the game regardless .
