Boyle chance could've been gamechanger

WARREN O'HORA admits Martin Boyle's agonising near-miss could have been a gamechanger for Hibs.

But, after the late concession of a dismal late goal to lose the derby, the stopper says it was a collective feeling of deep anger in a hurt dressing room after a horrible defeat.

Boss David Gray slammed the defending at Craig Halkett’s winner as “inexcusable” and O'Hora didn't attempt to hide the hurt of that bitter setback.

Hibs’ agony was heightened by the fact that Boyle had the game's biggest chance at 0-0, only for the attacker's dink in a massive one-on-one opportunity to hit the underside of the crossbar.

But O'Hora said: “There's not many words going on in the dressing room in terms of chances that we missed. It's very, very raw at the moment.

“It hits the bar, so it’s hard to take and then the way the game ends is horrible, so you will obviously look back at that and think that could've been a game-changing moment.
