The game tonight was on a knife edge. Two individual errors have lead to two goals against, and our top goalscorer has missed a really good chance, it happens. I'm as gutted as anyone else but we weren't battered tonight, and we didn't look beaten or broken at any point.
Score first on Saturday and it resets the entire tie. The 2-0 scoreline tonight means we'll probably have to do it in extra time if we're going to go through but we're not dead and buried yet.
What do you think the Hamilton players and staff said to themselves after the first leg last season, did they just give up the ghost and accept defeat?

It's obvious. We have no plan B.
As for the corners tonight, they're no even worth talking about. Amateur efforts.
The tie isn't over though, it's only half time. I've nae doubt McCall will set them up to drop deep from the 1st min on saturday, hopefully we're working on a Plan B.

The weaknesses which Hibs have shown on several occasions throughout the season came back again tonight, when it really mattered, to haunt them and the supporters, i.e. conceding a bad goal through poor defending, and the inability to put the ball in the back of the net (13 corners to nil I think, and Hibs lose 2-0).
It's a terrible result, lets not kid ourselves, but it's not over yet. Hibs must score first in the return leg at ER, preferably early in the match, to have any chance of pulling this out of the fire.
If they don't, and the Huns score first, it's all over and another season (at least) in the Championship beckons with all the repercussions that may have for the club.
Tonight's result won't have done anything to encourage a large attendance on Saturday either. Hibs needed to keep it to at the very worst a 1 goal defeat tonight. I'm way beyond disappointed.

He's paid to score is he not?
As I said he was not the only culprit, Cummings was like a man down, as was Allan. The defence was a joke too. Not tackling, standing off...All in all a pretty poor show, but to my mind had either Malonga or Cummings been anywhere near on song, we would have scored. It was so obvious yet Stubbs failed to see this???

Vile *******s. Subjected to a dismal tube ride full of ****s singing about fenian blood and the queen, drinking buckfast and giving the word "****" a bad name.
"Is that a Celtic scarf?" Witty. The death of their club is a drop in the ocean compared to the societal issues they represent.

Unfortunately it happens in another big game, the other one im thinking is Falkirk semi final which IMO was pretty similar to tonights game.

Hibs need real cutting edge.......more importantly they need to sign wingers so there is a 'plan B'.......we have none.

Based on that - I fancy Motherwell to stay up
Rangers looked a tired team...if they get through over us, think they will struggle big time against well

A disappointing result ... if we had kept it to a one goal deficit we would have been well in the tie, as it is, if we can turn this around it will be the best result we have achieved in the last 30 years IMO
I don't think Hibs were poor, but in the last 3rd we just have to create more .... only Stubbs can explain why El Alagui or Dje Dje wasn't brought on for the last 20 minutes when we were winning corner after corner and Cummings was doing nothing .. I just don't get it.
As for the Huns throwing stuff at our players with absolutely nothing being done to stop it by the Rangers or their security ( joke ) The answer is to ban the Huns from Easter Road on Saturday and give refunds to their idiot fans who have already bought tickets. If it was up to me Hibs would make a formal protest and ask for the game to be replayed ... I don't care if it influenced the result in reality or not, it was incessant and the Rangers did nothing about it.
Anyway ... This isn't over, if we can get an early goal on Saturday its game on !!!

As many have no doubt stated on here it was small margins that lost us that game. Cold comfort though. We have missed width and pace for seasons now and the lack of either was really shown up. Malonga was the one player who really played to 100% of his ability.
I can't see us keeping a clean sheet on Saturday but as always I'll be there cheering them on. I'll be amazed if the winner of this doesn't stuff Motherwell."Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral.' - Paulo Freire
