    Hopefully playing a lower league team will give us a decent result and get us playing with more confidence.

    Then again, it's never really that simple with Hibs is it?

    I had noticed that the other day.

    Extremely amateurish that the website of a professional football club doesn't even have an accurate match schedule displayed on the fixture list section of the site.

    Might grind out a 1-0 win there

    In all seriousness though i'm worried that there is a possibility of Ayr getting a result as were there for the taking, just hope we can turn up.

    Great chance for Zouma to get closer to full match fitness again though.

    Given our current crop of stars, our current form and our luck in this competition, I have a real concern that we will lose.

    If Ayr go one up, we will lose.

    I really hope that our players realise that the Ayr game is an opportunity to get things moving in the right direction. A three-nil win with a good performance will help our confidence for the important games coming up. A tight lucky win, a draw or worse a defeat will continue this downward spiral.

    Which Hibs team will turn up next week?

    And what will the crown be? I cannot see more than 7,500 turning up.

    Dundee Utd were 2 up, did we lose that one?

    No, but it took a late equaliser. Given our luck in the cup, I don't think we would be as lucky. If we go one down, I feel the team would not have the collective bottle to fight our way out of it. Everything is going against us at the moment, though I appreciate that my cup is half empty at the moment

    Many reasons why next week, freed from the pressures and routine of the SPL and with a few new faces on show (Byrne, Booth, Zouma, Duffy et al) we might win comfortably.

    I'll be going and I expect us to win.

    After 11 months of footballing hell, next week should mark the beginning of the upturn.

    Assuming no business has been done, I reckon CC has to line up...

    Brown
    Wotherspoon Dickoh Hanlon Booth
    Thicot Murray
    Zemmama Miller Riordan
    Duffy
    Thicot deserves a chance to show what he can do as a holding player alongside Murray. Those full-backs can bomb on against Second Division opposition and that front four should be able to get a few goals. Byrne given a chance off the bench.

    This is gonna be like the Semi-Final against Ayr a few years ago, where the underdog given no chance to win the game shows real bottle and surprises everyone by getting through.

    Then again, Ayr might win.

    They have brought up to 2K to previous cup games at ER - they are a good away crowd and make plenty noise

    even without a few more new faces, we'll beat them.

    I'd say 3 or 4 - 0 based on the fact Zouma's back and Duffy was impressive at Tynie (all things considered).
