Struggling on...

When Hibs beat us at Pittodrie earlier this season, few would bet that when we went down to Easter Road a few weeks later (anyone else find the fixture list bizarre this year?) we would be above them. However, three points against St Mirren and here we are.

Firstly, let's get the Dundee Utd game out of the way. While we deserved at least a point on play and chances, we gifted them a two-goal start and had Feeney not contrived to miss from 7 yards, it would have been three. It was almost a glorious fightback, but Mackie was unlucky to start his run too early. But for defensive errors, it might have been a very memorable day at Tannadice (where we are due a win) but the story of the season continues.

Next up were St Mirren, and I have yet to see a more inept outfit in the SPL this season. The conditions didn't help, but we were very poor. Nonetheless, we still managed to win thanks to a Considine strike which the keeper might have done better with and a cool Aluko finish.

Now for Hibs...the glorious unpredictability of the SPL means that it's hard to predict a winner, but we needn't go there with any fear. If the defence can keep Fletcher and Riordan quiet and avoid the costly errors which have plagued our season, Aluko, Mackie and Miller will cause them problems. They have lost their last couple of games, and if the crowd start getting on their backs, the pressure might begin to tell on them, as it has on us at Pittodrie recently.

A win at Easter Road, and we might start believing we can get something next weekend at Ibrox...
