CHRISTIAN DOIDGE had no idea Hibs were heading towards an extra 30 minutes before he got his noggin on Jair Tavares' cross to edge them past fighting Forfar.
Similarly the Hibees hitman doesn't know if he's got much extra time left in Leith with his contract up at the end of this, his fifth season.
On this evidence the towering striker is still worth his weight to the Easter Road club.
Doidge's aerial threat proved the difference at Station Park as he bravely climbed above a ruck of Loons to get the decisive touch on Tavares freekick with just 20 minutes remaining of a fierce battle HIbs were struggling to win.
The Welshman was surprised to learn after the whistle the fourth-round tie was to be finished on the day and not in a replay.
His fifth goal of the season ensured the bumper 3000 travelling support headed back to the capital with their Cup dream still alive.
