'Impressive win provides welcome tonic for under-pressure Monty'
It was a refreshing change to hear the boos ringing out around the stadium without feeling the need to join in as the Hibs players took the applause of the small away support, rather than the jeers of a furious home crowd. With the knives already out for the manager, Hibs did little to ease the pressure on him with the board’s open letter all but telling him he better win some games or he’d be out on his ear. The win hopefully provided a welcome tonic for the Hibs boss.

'Like a couple of dodos blinking into the Salford sunlight'
Both Manchester United and Burnley played wide open 4-2-4 formations, leaving vast areas of that huge pitch patrolled by only three of four players. Edwin Hubble would have been spooked by that much space. What underlines the size of the rebuild needed is that United drew against a bottom three club at home and were not the better side for large parts of the game.

'Weekend defeat sets up blockbuster Saturday at Dens'
At the fourth attempt this season, St Mirren denied Jack Butland a clean sheet. Top-scoring Buddie - and Scottish enough to be eligible for a last-minute Steve Clarke phone call this summer - Mikael Mandron also had an effective day leading the line and deserved his eighth goal of the campaign, placing a header deftly against the back post. Points are precious in this final stretch, and platitudes over a battling performance don't put any distance between ourselves and sixth-placed Dundee.
