The fans on Follow Follow know that there was more than Willie Collum to blame for today’s dropped points away to Hibs. To some it was Everyone, Anyone to blame.

Ultimately the buck stops with the manager, three months on from the Europa League Final some patterns are beginning to develop in Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side.

In January they chucked points away from winning positions away to Aberdeen and Ross County, in February Motherwell came from 2-0 down to take a point from Ibrox.

Twice today winning positions were lost, it is now more than eight months since Ryan Kent scored in the SPFL. On the other flank Rabbi Matondo appears to have left his shooting boots in Germany.

 

Among the many worries is the strange drop in fitness levels. At the end of last season they had players capable of 80 yard runs in the 118th minute of matches, in the last week Hibs and PSV Eindhoven have finished the strongest as they came from behind to draw matches in the latter stages.

If PSV end interest in the Champions League on Wednesday fan-media could turn very nasty with the clock ticking down towards facing Celtic on September 3.
