Two home games in a row coming up for us now against Raith Rovers and Dumbarton.
Six points is a must.

We need to win the next nine games to have any chance of winning the Championship. Improbable but certainly not impossible.

A good chance of winning both. A little concerned if Gray is out but the new formation seems to work.

The first objective is to keep this winning run going. We've just won back to back games for the first time since December last year so hopefully now that we've got that particular monkey off our backs then we'll start to build up a bit of momentum.
We're playing a team on Saturday that's only four points ahead of us so it's vital that we win to get ourselves into a position where we're within touching distance of the top three.
If we keep doing our job right then that's all we can hope for and we just need to see what happens with Hearts.

Let's not get carried away. If we manage 4 point we'll be doing well.

Easier said than done though as we'll be reverting back to facing teams who will be quite content to sit in and hit Hibs on the break.

Dumbarton are just behind us in the league and Raith are currently in a play off spot. 2 games we need to be winning if we are serious about challenging for promotion.

These games coming up will be a real test of the coaches and the playing squad.
Hibs really must not undo all the good work at Ross County & Greyskull. Really go for the 6 points. It won't be easy though, as these teams will do the now familiar 10 men behind the ball and hope to catch Hibs on the break.
So, every player must concentrate for 90+ minutes, and put the ball in the back of the net when the chances arrive, as they will.

I agree that the games are must wins. But so is every game for us. I'm much more of the philosophy of taking it one game at a time. People are right to point out that our two good performances have come against better opposition where we maybe aren't the favourites. Against Hearts and Rangers earlier in the season we played quite well despite losing both.. We know now that we are capable of playing well and winning but it's now a case of dealing with being favourites that we need sort.

I have a suspicion Stubbs will change the formation on Saturday, he mentioned in the post match interview with Cliff on Hibs TV that he won't necessarily use the same players or formations despite winning. Certainly be interesting to see what he does, I'd be sorely tempted to leave the team as is, it suits the players we have and I think that team has earned the right to all start (injuries permitting) on Saturday.
Regardless we need to find a quality that has been sorely lacking, namely consistency, and build a winning run while not getting too far ahead of ourselves.
I've renewed faith we can do it, the players have shown they have the ability so it's all about their mentality now for me.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk[/QUOTE] that will be the key, although If we have a good unbeaten run, that can build into a winning run. I don't suddenly expect 15 games winning, mair like 10-12 unbeaten will make it happen and drive us forward to the interesting part of next yearLast edited by monktonharp; 30-09-2014 at 11:33 PM.

Without 6 points from the next two, the rangers win means nothing. Consistency is the key to us being at the top end of the table.

Raith will come feeling confident, regardless of our result Monday. They have had a good start. I would line up the same and have a back up plan for first half of its obvious it isn't working

The last 2 results will have given the team a boost, they played well against sevco and hopefully we can kick on from hereLast edited by CraigHibee; 01-10-2014 at 11:14 AM.

Take the game to them and we will create chances. There's no reason to fear anyone in this league especially at home. We should absolutely be looking at winning these next two games if we have aspirations of promotion.

Hopefully that will be Stubbs' thinking as well.
I can just see the meltdown on here, though, when it doesn't all go our way, after everybody thinking we're suddenly world beaters. I hope people aren't expecting too much becuase of a good win at Ibrox.

I hope we all give a big warm hearted welcome to our friend Christian Nade and his dancing partner Calum Elliot

The Evening News think we'll leapfrog Raith if we beat them-arithmetic not its strong point.

The 3 R's
Ross County
Rangers (The)
Raith Rovers
Let's just do it then arrange a friendly with Real Madrid.
Seriously need to be picking up six points.

I loved beating the Huns at greyskull, but that is not reality. & not every team we face will be managed by a muppet like mcoist.
