I thought we were at St Mirren next Saturday but I now see that game's not for two weeks and we don't seem to have a fixture next weekend. Is that due to the Challenge Cup final?

Whatever, maybe a break will do us good although it might be worth fixing up a friendly against some side we are capable of scoring a few goals against in a bid to boost confidence.

No. The side for whatever reason in mid March need as much rest as possible.

We were meant to be playing Dumbarton at home but it's been postponed due to international call ups

Next weekend is international weekend, our game with Dumbarton is postponed due to our call ups.

OK, thanks. Didn't know Scotland were playing. Seems odd that they've arranged a fixture when they're not even at the Euros this summer (as usual). But I guess it sums up where we're at as a club that we can't be confident of beating Dumbarton without a couple of players. On balance I'd have been tempted to play the fixture as I think we need get this slump out of our system asap and considering Dumbarton took a 6-0 doing yesterday you'd hope that even Hibs would be capable of beating them in spite of our woeful run of league results.

I told the club that I was going for a day out to Preston wi my old man so they requested a change of date for the game, pretty decent of them I thought.

May give young Jason an opportunity to re discover his goal touch.

Perhaps we should have played this weekend regardless of call ups as fixture congestion next month is a massive concern. But on the other hand in current form could we really risk it minus the 4 call ups...

For the first time in a while I'm glad we have no fixture this weekend.

We NEED a rest, given our form recently (which is partly down to injuries and exhaustion) and the fact we have 10 (ten) games in the following five weeks.

:agree:

I don't know about the players but tbh I'm feeling pretty worn out with it all. The last month and a bit has felt like a chore as times, we're meant to enjoy going to the football.

I'm quite happy to have a weekend off with no meaningful football taking place.

It's been a busy year so far, April and May could be just as busy too.
