    There is merit in what you say in relation to constantly sacking managers. On the other hand, do we keep Johnson now because we've sacked so many mangers in the past? Questions need asking of board, regarding why their appointments have been so poor. Our problems don't begin and end with the manager, that's true.
    Keep him and actually give the manager time, more than 1 season and certainly more than 6 bloody months.

    Useless board
    Useless players
    Useless manager

    We are in a dire state.

    Whilst us fans get to continue watching Campbell and Newell as our main midfielders. Yay.

    You do realise it's possible to blame more than one person at the same time?

    Ta, ta Johnson, the sommelier, Kensall and most of the squad.
    I get yi but the root cause of our clubs problems comes from the top. And for what it's worth I don't think he was the correct appointment but I wouldn't trust the Gordon's to hire another manager.

    Anyone noticed a lack of consistency in substitutions. The Derby Mckirdy starts then doesn't get game time at all against Motherwell. Melkersen doesn't get game time in the Derby but thrown on ahead of Mckirdy in Motherwell. Today Mckirdy on before Melkersen. Same with Fish. No game time then thrown in against Hearts. We are then needing a player to play right back against Motherwell and he doesn't get on with Campbell and even Stevenson playing right back. Today thrown in. Henderson was the same.

    The recruitment worries me but the team selection and substitutions seem baffling to me.

    I’ve defended him and I have a great deal of sympathy for him having to try to form a functional unit out of the guff he has available but I think he lost me this afternoon.

    That was a shambles, papered over only by the efforts of a very hot striker.

    Team selection, tactical choices and the forced improvisation choices he’s made are often just baffling.

    I’ve also heard a few rumours from a decent source that he doesn’t exactly enjoy the trust of the senior players, players who aren’t exactly known to be troublemakers.

    Has he been on talking about football IQ yet ? Oh the irony when he starts that crap.

    He looks to me like a gambler frantically chasing losses.

    Common sense and discipline went out the window long ago and it’s just more and more desperate rolling of the dice.

    Can't wait till we get another doing against Hearts. I'm sure all the happy clappers will be out calling everyone else bed wetters.
    No doubt you will be disappointed if we win.

    Does he come across as a leader? No. He’s slavers p1sh
    Should we have a enough to beat the likes of Ross County, St Johnstone & Dundee Utd at home? I’d say so.
    Does his team selections and subs baffle you? They baffle me.
    Does he know his best team? Nope
    Is he on an awful run of form? Yes

    The clubs that much a shambles, the only reason we don’t want to sack him is because what went before him.

    Dreading next week with David Brent Jnr in charge.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s just keeping the seat warm whilst we appoint a DOF and then he can pick his own man.

    Strange team selection today. No tactics or game plan as far as I could see and 11 players that looked like they had never met. Even Marshall looked clueless. A really tough watch; reluctant to give him any praise at all, but at least Maloney had a system and a plan (just a shame it was total crap to watch and ineffectual) - I can’t see any evidence of that team being coached.

    I think that’s a good analogy.

    I don’t think it’s impossible he could turn it around so I’m not completely in the LJ must go camp but there is definitely a sense of inevitability about it.

    Team selections are all over the place, players are being chucked here there and everywhere hoping for the best and we’re heavily reliant on one or two players rather than being a good cohesive team.

    I would be quite pleased if he was sacked now, if he is going tk stay we need tk back him in the transfer market as this team could well get us relegated.

    Playing our best centre half in midfield just epitomises his level of competency.. Got to play your best players where they are most effective, or you basically weaken 2 positions in one move. How he doesn’t see that is beyond weird ..

    No,I will be delighted and admit I was wrong.

    If we lose will you do the same?

    Happy to put £50 to a charity of your choice on the result.

    Actually, let's go further. If Hibs win I'll give £200. If they lose you give £50. Deal?

    “Will Fish not having the confidence to speak?!”! What? I can’t believe he’s just said that about a first team professional.

    Other than that, not got a huge issue with what he said to be honest.

    A generous offer, hopefully it will be taken up, and hopefully £200 is going to a good cause next week.

    He's a dead man walking.

    Everything between now and his inevitable departure is noise. I'd go as far as to say the decision has already been made, it's a timing issue as much as anything now.

    It's a Hibs TV interview, so it's the usual anodyne, packaged *****. I'll venture the new signing (if one appears) will be an inexperienced loanee.

    MUST win this game next week, no excuses.

  22. #141
    Can't see him going anywhere to be honest. Kensell won't want another managerial failure on his record so will be sitting tight hoping a DoF changes our fortunes next season. Kensell will be thinking about his own job now and turkeys don't vote for Christmas.

    I left the ground with a bit of a spring in the step pleased to have salvaged a point with the late equaliser. Relief more than anything, and while it was far from a good performance I felt the point was still well deserved.

    Come on here after getting home and I’m surprised the mood is one of total doom and gloom. I’m getting the feeling that Nisbet’s late strike wasn’t the most welcomed goal Hibs have ever scored.

    I concur, getting rid of him now and appointing someone else before the DOF comes in, probably doesn't make much sense. So it's either dismiss now & have a caretaker (Gray?) for a likely extended period, or hang fire for now whilst still a few points clear of relegation. Suspect he'll now be here for a bit unless things get perilously bad in the league, or a particularly heavy defeat next week forces the hand.

    You must not have listed to his interviews

    He said they were proud they kept going until the last but the players are in there disappointed with the result, not celebrating the last minute goal

    He is hampering what limited ability this squad has. Unable or unwilling to bring any youth through and a whole host of poor transfer signings (which he has claimed responsibility for).

    Starting line ups costing us goals and no sign of any style or system. Has to go.

  31. #150
    im not sure who could get a tune out of our defence and midfield ....we seriously need a whole new back 3 or 4 and at least 2 other midfielders

    if we dont replace porto if he leaves with a decent centre half and dont replace the campbells, newells, stevensons, hanlons, JDH then we will continue to have performances like we see today

    its all fair and well getting rid of kenneh, mitchell, dabrowski etc, the squad is too big but the main problem is the starting 11 is poor.

    i couldn't be happier with up top especially when boyle is back and if we keep kylo and secure nisbet for 2 more seasons...we need starting defenders and midfielders to improve
