2 week break to re-charge the batteries and think up new strategies.

Just and Maswanhise being away will hamper preparations and maybe rule them out of this one, depending on how much gametime they get and flights back.

Could do with Koutroumbis and Longelo being back.

Falkirk losing again today keeps them off our tails, but we could do with 3 points when we are off to Tynecastle before the split.

Another draw.

Thats what it looks like to me. Falkirk will change their approach and they might not win, but they'll be good enough to nullify us. We've taken one solitary point from them in 2 attempts and at the moment, we've gone off the boil.

Falkirk are a good, solid team and we will struggle to break them down again.
 

Our problem all season long is that we just aren’t strong or clinical enough up front when it really matters and that is why we were never seriously in contention for a top three finish. As someone highlighted in the match thread yesterday, our record against the top six sides is actually pretty poor. 2 wins in 13 albeit only 4 losses. As has been the case most of the season it’s the inability to turn draws into wins that has been our downfall. 
 

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if the end of the season sort of mirrors the start, with a lot more frustrating draws.

If we're taking records against the top 6 into account, both Hibs and Falkirk have 2 wins, same as ourselves. All 7 Hibs defeats have come againt top 6 sides, while Falkirk have also lost 7 times against them.

I wouldn't count anything out before we reach the split. Desperate times throw up strange results, as Dundee, Killie and St Mirren have shown over the past couple of weeks.
