THIS has been a memorable season for Edinburgh football, with Hearts deservedly gaining all of the plaudits for their valiant title challenge, yet it’s almost easy to forget that when the campaign began, Hibs were in the limelight, having done superbly well in the previous season and then performing heroics well above their station in the European qualifiers.

DAVID Gray’s Hibs side seems to have already ‘finished up for the season,’ the recent fine away win over Celtic having been followed by one victory, two mind-numbing 0-0 draws and an embarrassing defeat—with no goals scored in three of those four matches. Yes, it’s been a long season for Hibernian’s fairly small squad—those European heroics seem so long ago now—but that’s no excuse for the side’s mostly insipid recent displays. Hibs fans are praying that David Gray’s men are keeping something...

DAVID Gray’s Hibs side has only lost seven league matches all season and sit comfortably fifth in the table with the ridiculous pointless ‘split’ a mere three matches away.
