Freddie White said: “Absolutely forgettable game of football. Hibs played slightly better the second half but both teams offered pretty much nothing. But we’re through that’s what matters as they say!”

Peter Henderson wrote: “When Mallan went off we were so much better.”

Andy Jeffrey added: “Much better second half but a failure to build on Murphy’s goal. We’ll play better. We need to.”
