Bragging rights

Jamie Macdonald wants to win his first derby of the season on Sunday and claim bragging rights over neighbours Hibs.

The Jambos currently sit one point ahead of the team from Leith and Jamie knows that a win will end the season on a positive slant and boost confidence for next term.

Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Jamie said: "You're playing for bragging rights over your city rivals. It's the last chance to get a win as we've not beaten them this season. We've had three draws in the league and they've put us out of the Scottish Cup, so it's a chance to get a win and if we did win then it would put us in pole position to finish above them in the league.

"After the season we've had, the chance to finish seventh would make it slightly bearable. We've won three out of the last four games, and even the game we lost was due to an early red card and a deflected goal. We've been on a decent bit of form recently and the confidence has been high.

"We're starting to get a bit of momentum and if we can win our last two games then it would be a good end to the season and it would give the young boys, and guys like myself, plenty of confidence for going into next year."
