Crap 3-1

That's not really the case

We were where we deserved to be and still are, what had happened is a few players lost form just as we started getting key injuries, with that lost a couple games, one not deserved vs St Johnston, one deserved at Tynecastle, we got a couple decent results after that but still didn't get a break with the injuries and when Fuchs etc did comeback in he was a shadow of what he was before, the odd individual error aswell that we weren't seeing, poor discipline at the same time as injuries (Butcher) .. Losing the late goal in Dingwall also didn't help and affected us, we've had no run of games with our strongest line up for weeks now, then the covid outbreak happens at the worst time and we are seeing the affects still today and last week

Hibs at full strength today, us not and that was before Edwards dropped out just before kick off (like Levitt a couple weeks ago) ... now glad the other games were moved, hopefully get the injuries back and covid affected players, make some alterations, if we get a chance to field our best xi consistently then we will do alright, we were able to do that and we got results, we haven't recently got the reasons above and this if the result
