Sevco panic as Hibs draw level
Waldo was part of Ally McCoist’s tax free Allstars that threw away a 15 point lead over Celtic in the winter of 2011 with the collapse of the new club following a similar pattern.
At the start of November Sevco went to Easter Road looking to build on their eight point lead but returned to Ibrox on the back of a 2-1 defeat.
After that loss veteran hitman Kenny Miller discussed Hibs title bid saying: “Time will tell with them but for us it is immaterial what they do.
“We are approaching every game to win it. If we do that, we win the league – it’s as simple as that. If Hibs can sustain their form and do that as well then fair play to them.
“But we are only looking at getting back on track against Alloa at Ibrox on Saturday and after that looking forward to the next game.”
In midweek Hibs beat Livingston to trim the difference between the two clubs down to five points but that didn’t concern Mark Warburton.
Under the headline ‘Hibs don’t worry Warbs’ the former city trader joked to the club website: “You can tell by the worried look on my face at the moment. We have a game in hand, and if we win that, we are five points clear.
“We’ve lost one game of football all season, so it’s not about Hibs, or about Falkirk. It’s about Rangers, and from our point of view, all we can do is try to go out there and win every game we play, and if we do that, we will be in good shape.”
Yesterday, with Hibs level on points at the top of the table Wallace claimed: “None of us have spoken about Hibs and none of us will. We have no interest in what they are doing.
“Our focus is fully on Rangers and we can learn from Saturday’s dropped points.
Warbo’s revolution will have to continue without midfield powerhouse John Eustace who has walked away after five months of contract negotiations.
