If we finish outside the top 4 it's a shocking season. We always seem to be just behind the big boys rather than infront. Even last season was an anti climax and a shocker that we never finished higher than 4th. Shows how good a job Levein and Clarke have done/are doing considering the foundations we had in place when stubbs walked out the door. Should have been enough to create a gap between us and hearts for a couple of years at least. Lennon's responsibility for me and questioning his signings now tbh, and tactically the last few games. Maybe we just got lucky in January..

I’m really not sure you grasp this ‘competitive sport’ business.
Either that or you see what you want to see.

It's a strange situation at Hibs right now. Due to our European run (how long ago does that seem??), the season seems both to have been going on for ages yet at the same time feels that it's never really got started. What underpinned our excellent run in the second half of last season was a largely settled side, something we have not had this time round. Hopefully we'll see some stability on that front and with it the return of some consistently good results.

I think people are being a bit too hasty in writing off Livi. They are strong defensively and their home form will be good, mainly due to the pitch being a massive leveler.

We only missed out on second in the last couple of games of the season. We finished 18 points ahead of Hearts, even though they'd already been back up for two seasons and have a much bigger budget than us.
We also gave Celtc the biggest challenge of any club in league games, with one win, two draws and one defeat, and received plaudits from many as the most entertaining side they'd watched.
Oh and we actually qualified for Europe, something we don't exactly do on a regular basis
But I suppose some people are just never happy.

1. Celtic
2. Rangers
3. Aberdeen
4. Hearts
5. Killie
6. Hibs
Based on the season so far I think we will be 5th or 6th. I think we struggle to field a team with a shape that works at the moment and we have a soft centre and a manager that likes playing good football which will see you losing games that shouldn't be lost. The big unknown is the January window as we might get a couple of players in, like last season, that makes the shape and style of the team obvious. At the moment though Hearts, Killie and Aberdeen all play pragmatic football and due to the way games are refereed that tends to lead to decent results. I won't be too disappointed with 6th if we are playing with good style and banging in a few goals. Unfortunately, the last 3 games has seen us play a horrible brand of football and pick up a single point from 9.

Celtic
Rangers
Aberdeen
Us
Hearts
Killie.

At this moment in time we look top 6 but only just, players will have to up their games and a good January will be needed if we want 4th again.

I’m with the majority on here. We should have enough in our locker to finish above Livingston and St Johnstone.
Celtic and Sevco have far bigger budgets so will be out of reach. Meh.
Hearts are clearly a good side and will improve again once their injured players return. Sorry.
Aberdeen are physical and street wise and they know how to get a result.
Not much between us and Killie.
So 5th or 6th

Celtic
Huns
Sheep
Killie
Hearts
Hibs
A good January could see us get 4th but imo 2nd or 3rd are already as good as gone

If an 8 point lead can be built over 13 games why cant it be reduced over 25?
We can easily still finish 3rd. or 2nd. I think Celtic will of course be too strong. Everything else very much up for grabs.

At the start of the season I predicted that we would finish behind
Celtic
Rangers
Aberdeen
Hearts.
I think Kilmarnock are in danger of being added to that list.
Yes, we WILL improve, but no doubt other clubs around us will also.

Noticed the local bookie had us 11/4 to finish above Hearts. Reasonable price for some that are confident we will.
