I'm guessing its:

Esson

Piermayr, Golobart, Shinnie, Gillet

Hayes, Cox, Davis, Foran

Tade, MacKay

good start

Feck!

Sounds like we are creating chances but not taking them YET!!!!!

sounds like we are causing the hibs defence problems so if we can keep creating then we can get back into this one

Just to add to the Topic text - the entire game is on bbc alba at 9.55 tonight

Brew says we're creating chances and starting to dominate the game

Golobart carded

johhny hayes yes brilliant now lets go on and win this

Hayes scores another wondergoal

P E N A L T Y ach no its only half time !!!!!!

1-1 decent take that at half time

You will never see a better goal than Hayes got....definite contender for Goal of the Month.

Still image does not do it justice.

Tansey on for Cox. Doran on for McKay

Three minutes of injury time............

a draw at least we didnt lose but that has been a pretty good result over the last two games so if we can notch a win over st johnstone then we can look above us good to hear doran back and hopefully we can move up the table

Better result for us than for Hibs.

Won me a few bob as well.

1-1. I suppose it's a sign of how far we've come that an away draw with Hibs seems disappointing. However, whilst a win would have been very nice, it was more important not to lose. On a windy night like tonight not losing has to be a good result.

Great goal from Jonny Hayes but plenty of chances missed from McKay and Tade. Happy with a point though.

Al take a draw. TBH....last i heard it was 1-0 to hibs...then i never heard we had equalised....so finding the score out was a bonus

Watching now on Alba, looks like O'Hanlon should have had a straight red for that studs up assault on Foran's shin. Ref didn't even give a foul.

You will never see a better goal than Hayes got....definite contender for Goal of the Month.

Brilliant run and finish.

Now, strictly speaking he should really have rolled it to Tade who was in loads of space and would have had a simple finish. But even without the befeit of hindsight I think we all know he made the right choice!

Kept away from the telly until I watched it on BBC incomprehensible. Good result, better for us than them. O'Hanlon, straight red every day. That was a leg breaker of a tackle, I'm amazed Foran kept going after that, and even more amazed that the ref ignored it. Great goal from Hayes, but we really do try to lose games in injury time by giving away corners and then making a complete horlicks of them. Thought McKay was a tad off the pace up front, but I'll take a point every day.

Just watched it all on Alba, without knowing the score. Two points lost in my view. Hibs were there for the taking. Apart from injury time they were never in the game. Silly free kick given away by Golobart for Hibs goal, but Esson must take some responsibility. His positioning for O'Connor's shot was abysmal, giving himself no chance. Goal of the season contender by Hayes, but why does he disappear for long periods during the game? No problem with Foran tonight, back to his best I thought. Also Gillet looked sound. Golobart gave me some worrying moments. Up front we created enough half chances to have won this game easily, but we seemed to want to walk the ball into their net. Can't help feeling disappointed with only a point from this game. But, looking on the bright side, I hadn't really realised just how poor Hibs are this season. Unless they improve dramatically, we should manage to stay ahead of them.

Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we've been watching the DVD of the game on the bus...don't think tv shows just had crappy conditions were at the game.

Even though Terry and the lads were desperate for back to back wins, I think they can be satisfied that they got the job done today....even if we should have perhaps had the win.

Was surprised to see how bad the tackle on Foran really was....it didn't look that fierce from where we were sat (just about on half way line). Also, the 'last man' challenge on the edge of the area is exactly what we have seen red cards for this season....but que sera, two wrongs wouldn't make a right.

For anyone who thinks ICT fans can be fickle....Hibs take it to a whole new level. They moaned and boo'd every ref decision and spent most of the game telling their own players how bad they are. it really was something else.

Role on Monday...actually looking forward to the next game for first time in a while!!!
