Ayr United v HibsThe Sky Sports cameras will be at Somerset Park tomorrow night. Not, I think, to

feast on the corpse of Hibs' season.
A cruel accident of birth dictates that I celebrate my birthday just as the big beasts of Scottish
football enter the Scottish Cup.
Thus each year my birthday marks the start of another failed leg of Hibernian's apparently never
ending Scottish Cup odyssey. If the jinx hadn't begun more than 70 years before I was born I'd
consider myself a bit of a Jonah.
