Reading all reports today, I am glad I didnt head through from East Kilbride to watch this shambles but then I am now having this same feelin more or less every week.
When CC was hired I actually thought on paper he would be a good appointment. Prior to Hibs he had been involved in promotions with 3 different teams and overall was considered a successful manager & coach down south.
However apart from the 3-0 win at Ibrox his record has been nothing short of disgraceful and we have slumped from one disaster to another while our board continually back him!
There was normally around 7 of us travelling to 30 games a season and now not one of us have any desire to watch Hibs. I have followed Hibs since I was 3 years old and this is the first time I have ever felt like this.
I do however think whilst CC is proving to be totally inept, our board have very much made it difficult for him. Firstly no one will ever convince me that Derek Adams was identifield by CC. Also I don't believe he will have identified Gary O'Connor and Ivan Sproule. I personally think Rod Petrie was 100% responsible for these appointments. Also the signings CC has made, I dont think they were first choice. I remember towards the end of last season he said that he had all his signing targets in place yet we made a handful of average signings towards the end of August!
Ever since Mowbray left it seems like there has been a terrible atmosphere hanging over Easter Road and even if CC does leave this week, I still cant see things improving with the current board in charge.
Time for a new board, new manager and new team!
