'Something positive for a change, we’re off to Hampden' - Hibs fans react to the 5-4 penalty shootout win at Rugby Park

It would appear it will take a lot more than a Betfred Cup quarter-final victory over Kilmarnock to convince Hibs fans Paul Heckingbottom is the right man to take the club forward.

Stevie Mallan applauds the 727 Hibs fans who made the trip to Rugby Park. Picture: SNS

@joshfairnie: “He still needs to go. Lottery of penalties can’t cover up a game where we have had 0 shots on target over 2 hours”

@Jackmcneill1875: “Think about it we will get destroyed in the semi as well so he will still be away it just means we have to suffer a bit longer but get a trip to Hampden out of it”

@_Liamm99: “Should punt him now if we want any chance of winning this semi final”

@fairgrieve_alex: “Something to cheer about at last”

@CraigccHealey: “Back at the wheel”

@LizHamilton26: “Well I never we’ve only gone and done it, we’ve only gone and played 120 minutes without conceding a goal – saved a pen and a semi final to boot yippee. Love my team”

@only1moyesy: “Great result after what was a s**t game and close shave with the penalties. Better than this is needed”

@hibslass1: “Something positive for a change, we’re off to Hampden. GGTTH”

@SWilson1991: “We all just going to pretend we played well tonight? That’s 4 games, 1 goal. Still not nearly good enough”

@John04407982: “Announce Hecky statue”
