1) What Hibs team turns out today ... no apathy, positive attitude, desire to play our game, not to get involved in their antics, stand up to their physical aggressiveness and not waste chances. We have all the ability let's use it by getting the ball moving and committ their humpty defenders to dealing with us with the ball on the ground in the box.

2)What Rankgers team appears - will McCall have them better organised and fired up as if they need that, just how physical and aggressive they are we will see ? will Boyd turn up and create/take half chances like he can (yes he can and is still a threat, lets not dismiss him and his big partner Daly ), will they try and play football or hoofball ?

3) What will we get from the Referee ? - Collum on his game can be the best ref around just now, but also is prone to nightmares, i hope he decides to be the firm and strong ref he can be, taking no nonsense from our visitors who have shown all too often that when they are a very overly aggressive and dirty team. Hope he ref's the game and doesn't allow McCulloch and Miller to dictate and intimidate him, that his at times card flashing is used in the right way to protect the footballers and make the right hard decisions.

Let's get on and do it, play the New Hibs way, the STUBBSY WAY and see where it takes us

Tbh I'm not bothered about what Der Hun team turns up but what Hibs team turns up.

We need to stay disciplined and strong and not get involved in a kicking or slugging match.

We play football and we are more that half way there IMHO.

I hope the likes of McCulloch/Moshni and black play cos they are woeful thug like players.
