Hibs boss John Hughes has today revealed that he thinks his players have turned the corner, and are now back in the hunt for a Europa League spot for next season.
The Hibees have had a shocking couple of months, culminating in a derby defeat, and a Scottish Cup exit at the hands of first division side Ross County, at the Quarter Final stage.
A 1-3 away win over Falkirk on Saturday has lifted some of the doom surrounding Easter Road, following a run that produced only one win in their previous eight games.
Now Hughes is hoping that his side is back on an upward spiral in the SPL.
He said:
"The last month has been hard, but the response I've had off these players has been fantastic," said Hughes.
"I like to think the win that we had on Saturday will give us confidence.
"One or two of them have shown character to come back and make sure they don't go hiding. It was nice for all their efforts that they have got back to winning ways.
"All credit to the boys, especially with the month that we've had, going to a venue where they are fighting for their lives, on a tricky pitch with the overhead conditions were blowy."
"I'm looking to create a culture, along with my own stuff, to make these players better individually and collectively, to create a 'win, win, win' mentality," he added.
"One or two of them you might have to help along. It takes time. It's like any new player coming to a club. Sometimes it takes time to settle, to see how the club works and to see the style of play."
