Look at the Hibs team that finished on the park at full time whistle today.
Booth, Hanlon, Stephens, Wotherspoon, Stevenson, Galbraith, Griffiths, Doyle. The list goes on...
Are only so-called experienced pros in Sproule and O'Connor are pathetically unfit, show zero leadership and contribute very little. Don't even get me started on Hart.
Our squad has absolutely no leadership and backbone, and the lack of concentration shown as well as basic mistakes continually made by the youngsters in criminal.
What is the answer? Fenlon says he wants experienced players to supplement the squad but here we are 21 days into the window and we are no further forward. Is it becuase we can't attract the right calibre of player or a lack of budget to entice these types of players at this notoriously hard transfer window stage. I find it very hard to believe that if given sufficient budget, experienced pros can't be found. Fenlon, Brown and O'Brien have all been in the game a long time, they should know where to look.
Either way, something has to change DRAMATICALLY in the next 10days or we will continue to see these types of performances.Our current transfer policy is not working, we need radical action immediately. I can't believe that after 2 years of absolute dross, glaring weaknesses being exposed week in, week out and we have still nowhere close to rectifing problem areas. This will ultimately be the cause of our demise.
