    A good piece, Callum, and I agree with much of it, particularly what you say about giving 3-5-2 a sustained try and the need to convert more of the chances created. Raith was another example of what might have been but for some poor finishing, and it was the same story in the League Cup final.

    A good read and a good sign from a blog if it can be critical as well.

    Callum, I agree with 95% of what you say.
    A good balanced blog which makes the points that Hibees with a few brain cells are thinking.

    Good piece Callum. I'm surprised at you singling Gray out and not Stevenson, other than that I agree.

    Great read as ever Callum, totally dead at work today so good to have something to read


    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

    Just read it Callum. excellently set out. I totally agree Shinnie could be a key player if he comes and it would have been madness to sell JC at the first offer as he is already 3 goals in to his now normal 20 goals plus a season. He also seems to be working hard to improve his game as you rightly say. Just two of the many good points you raise.

    Really enjoyed reading it.

    Cheers Callum - very good as always

    The only point I'd comment on - and it's minor - is the Holt one. Having observed him now in two home games, he doesn't try at all for flick ons - so don't think that's in his instructions. He seems to let the CH tire themselves out jumping. He doesn't seem waste energy so later in the game he has more control and able to hold the ball up better.
