Hibs welcome the Perth Saints to Easter Road on Saturday with a better than 50/50 chance to throw away more points in a game we should win. But never fear, I think this is the one to kick-start our season with an impressive win. BUT (and there's a lot of buts) we must take advantage of our expected scoring chances and stop giving away stupid goals, most of which are down to appalling individual errors.
Kieron Bowie was taken off the pitch with a hamstring injury after half-an-hour during the Scottish Under-21's win against Malta, so that is the first negative for Saturday. Let's hope there are no more.
Off the pitch, BBC Sport reports on the tenure of Ian Gordon and the mistakes made since the family took over.
"Sacking Jack Ross. Appointing himself as head of recruitment. Signing too many players. Not listening to investors over key club appointments.
Just some of the mistakes that Hibs owner Ian Gordon fessed up to in his rigorous interview with Sky Sports this week.
There have been five managers since the Gordon family took over in 2019 - at least three of whom have gone down as failures. Since the summer of 2022, they have made 47 signings - a figure that eclipses even Chelsea's infamous transfer policy."
Now that shouldn't necessarily affect today's players, but the constant merry-go-round of staff and players has had a negative impact over the years.
