Noticed at half-time that Ladbrokes were offering 28/1 on Hibs winning and thought that was remarkably generous for a side that was only 0-2 down at home to a supposedly inferior team. But the bookies obviously know all about the tactical and motivational genius that is Pat Fenlon.
Imagine his half-time talk: "Roight lads, go out there and slaughter them. If we haven't got it back to 2 each in 2 minutes, Oi'l hook our best player and stick a couple of youse out of position on the roight, where they were ripping us first half. Eoin, son, don't bother running if it's too much effort. Ryan, whenever you get in to their half, play it back to Paul. If all all else fails, Oi'l stick Oivan on. Oh wait..."

28/1 for a good reason. Had a few refreshments before typing your team talk?

Nothing generous about the odds offered at half-time. Where do you get the 'supposedly inferior team' from? They were clear bookies favourites before the game. They were two up and in complete control of the game and in no danger of losing.................................. can't argue about your opinion of Fenlon tho'.
