Sutton's goal takes some of the pressure off and might well increase our chances at taking something from the gruesome twosome.
Our play was a strange mixture of passing (often across the park rather than last season's more direct route) and long balls to out target men. The presence of Porter and Sutton made the long ball a bit more attractive and the absence of Rob Jones in the heart of the Hibs' defence helped.
The game had a look of a 0-0 about it as it entered the last quarter. We looked fairly comfortable in defence but seemed to be running out of steam in attack. Sutton completely fluffed an attempted shot and it looked like Clarkson's legs had lost their spring.
Once the pair contrived to build the goal McGhee sent on some fresh legs to help shut up shop. Three points in the bag made the trip back along the M8 a happy one.
Well done boys.
