Hibs are not making the best of the opportunity of a safe European slot created by their good start to the season. Saturday saw them lose to city rivals Hearts to allow the latter to sit just seven points behind Hibs who have endured a run of just one win in eight games. But manager John Hughes believes his team's fighting qualities can get their season back on track. Hibs face a difficult trip to Dingwall tomorrow for the Scottish Cup quarter-final replay against Ross County.
Manager John Hughes said: "We're coming down the business end of the season and we're in there fighting for a European spot and still in the Scottish Cup. There are so many clubs in Scotland that would give their right arm to be where we are right now. I've seen us play better but do we feel sorry for ourselves or come out fighting? If those boys give me what they have given me since the start of the season and come out fighting, we'll win games."
