That’s the old gag and phoenetic translation of Hibees’ new manager’s name; Mixu Paatelainen. But I tell you what, new manager or not, I’d not be rushing to bet on Hibs putting Inverness Caley Thistle out of the cup this afternoon. I hope these are non-prophetic words. But time will tell.
Prediction?
Hibs 1 Thistle 1
Replay
Thistle 2 Hibs 0
Will Thistle win the cup? Will they buggery.

Well it’s going to be a tough one for the Hibees today. Mixu really can’t have seen much of his new players and is stating that he is obviously relying on his current coaching staff of Craig and Gareth Evans to inform his decisions.
One can only hope that he will inject a bit of self-belief into a team that has been sadly lacking it though. A big factor today will be the crowd because there certainly seems to be huge waves of optimism amongst the support after Mixu’s appointment. I think they could be a ‘twelth man’ today and that why against the odds I’m tipping the Hibs for a narrow win and further progress.
