Calderwood planning ahead Colin Calderwood hopes to mould his Hibernian team into shape in the final six matches of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League campaign in order to achieve more next season. Hibs finished fourth last term but a poor start contributed to the departure of John Hughes in October and Calderwood's appointment. Calderwood won two of his first 17 games in charge as his side struggled towards the foot of the table, before a run of five straight wins resurrected Hibs' season. However, the turnaround was not enough to clinch a place in the top six and Hibs enter Sunday`s match with bottom club Hamilton seeking to finish the season with a flourish. Calderwood said: "We don't have the excitement of being in the top six, but we've got lots to play for - only for ourselves. We've got to look after what we do. "We've got to be professional and we've got to build on the momentum and the run we're on. We want to finish as positively as we can. "It will be a good examination of our professionalism and also the level that we can achieve and that's what really interests me in the games coming up." Due to the SPL split, which occurs after Sunday`s match, Hibs can place seventh at best. Calderwood, though, insists there is plenty to play for this term, including finding combinations in defence, midfield and attack which can take Hibs forward next term. Some members of Calderwood's squad - 14 of whom are out of contract - will also be playing for deals away from Easter Road, having been told they are surplus to requirements. Calderwood is eager to discover the personalities in his dressing room, with winning all-important. He added: "I'm looking at what my team can produce. I want us to be on the front foot and displaying talents that would be good indications for a better season next year. "The five games after this weekend we've got to set ourselves individual goals and we'll do that. "It will be an education for everyone and we want to see a team evolve out of this situation." Hibs have just one new injury concern. Matt Thornhill has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury. The midfielder suffered a medial ligament injury in last weekend's SPL win at Aberdeen. Tomas Cerny believes Hamilton must cling to the small hope of retaining their Clydesdale Bank Premier League status until relegation is confirmed. Accies head into the weekend action 12 points adrift of nearest rivals St Mirren at the bottom of the table. Billy Reid's men have won just two games all season but Cerny insists they must at least attempt to finish what has been a difficult campaign on a high. He said: "I can't talk for the other guys but I know that we will try to win every game. There are still games to go and, although it's very, very small, there is still a chance to stay up. "While there is still this chance, we will just try to win as many games as possible and try to stay up." Hibs are an example of a team who successfully transformed their own fortunes but Cerny concedes Hamilton have probably left it too late. The goalkeeper added: "The problem is the number of games, there are not many games left. At the very least, we want to finish the season strongly and get some results before the end of the season." Hamilton will take inspiration from last week's performance against Rangers, which saw the Scottish champions scrape a 1-0 win after Accies had missed a penalty, but the outcome summed up their season so far. Cerny said: "That game was last week, we have trained all week and I don't think anyone is thinking about that game anymore. We are just disappointed with how things have gone. "We have played well but just haven't managed to score goals in a lot of the games. It's happened so many times this season and it's really disappointing but all we can do is just keep working and try to win the next game." Cerny admits his own future remains unclear until the club's position is resolved. He said: "I have one more year left here at Hamilton. I'll have to sit down with the manager and chairman and talk about the future here at the club and what's going to happen next year. "I don't want to talk about it now because this season is not finished. I'll finish the season and see where we are and then maybe talk about it." David Elebert is a doubt for Hamilton with a hamstring injury. Boss Reid has one or two other unnamed players carrying knocks, while Mark McLaughlin and Martin Canning are both sidelined.
