NO apology can make a blind bit of difference to what we saw today, total capitulation. Shame for the folk investing in a season ticket on the back of the cup run that helped disguise how bad we really are, well disguised it until today.

No such humility from Matt Doherty on his Twitter. Instead he's having a go at 'gingers' and folk in 'minimum wage jobs'. Pure class! :bitchy::bye:

so, let me get this right, two players that have just been in a team humiliated in a national cup final, and one of the first things they do afterwards is go on some social networking site on the internet :confused:

Soares will be seen by many as a scapegoat but I personally feel he has been played in completely the wrong role whilst at Hibs. I see him as a player who could do some damage given a free role in a five man midfield. That said he will be away back to his parent club soon along with the other numerous loan signings. I also feel Wotherspoon being excluded from the squad today was an error by the manager as he has more to his armoury than Sproule again imho.

Pot hunters ? I left after the 4th embarrassed by that performance.
I've watched, supported, travelled and spent wages every year on season tickets for years and to be brutally honest this is the worst team for years.

Season ticket holder for God knows how many years, since I was about 4 or 5. Travelled a 240 mile round trip every other week for 6 years to watch Hibs, Hibs already have my season ticket money for.next year banked, thousands spent on away trips over the years, hundred if not thousands spent on strips, t shirts, scarves, books, calendars, towels etc etc over the years yet because I left early yesterday all that is wiped out and I'm not a real fan?

I dont blame the guys who left early yesterday as all our hopes dissipated with the sending off and the penalty, then the fourth soon after made it look like it was going to be even worse. Difficult to stomach.

Totally correct, I have supported Hibs for 50 years and. Even after yesterday I am still proud to be a Hibby and that is more down to the guys I watched in the 60's and 70's who gave their all and yes I witnessed the 5-2 and 6-1 drubbings from the Lisbon lions at least both these teams fraught till the death! But one thing that is constant with Hibernian FC is Our penny pinching ways go so far back that it it almost seems that it is our mantra! Gordon Smith released too early, Joe Baker , Colin Stein Pat Stanton and these are just the household names many others who went on to make a name for themselves left due too our frugality and here is how we find ourselves, full of morals but nothing else

Hearts have been living beyond their means for many a year, so that brings in a much higher calibre of player than what we have.

Yes some of our players bottled it yesterday but can they really be called "our" players?

I think we should thank them for keeping us in the SPL because no matter how much you are hurting this morning, that would have been the worst.

Yes I know we got beat from them "again" but it's over, it's done.

We can now start the rebuilding process , please please please let's get it right this time.

:agree:

I personally stayed and suffered till the end, but some of the guys in my group left after the 4th and 5th and I don't blame them. They, like so many other hibs fans yesterday, have spent thousands and thousands of pounds on hibs over the years, are season ticket holders, go to most away games, travelled on many trips abroad to see hibs etc. but yesterday was just utterly humiliating. Not only were we getting humped in the SC final but we had to suffer watching the **** fans celebrate and taunt us. The players let us down so badly, we turned up and as usual gave a fantastic support but the players gave us nothing in return and gave a cowardly, uninspiring, pathetic performance so I can completly understand why people gave up watching. I am all for supporting your team through thick and thin, and as hibs supporters we have experienced many horrible times, which we have braved through as fans but yesterday was a new low.

Why are people surprised with these reports on the players when you consider they gave us yesterday? Pathetic doesn't come close.

Moving forward, I don't want an empty apology. I want ACTION. The entire club needs a root and branch review/overhaul in terms of its leadership, its culture, its strategy and approach to derby games. Until such wholesale changes are made, the club will continue to underachieve.

If this is true then that just says it all about the people we have at this club and the attitude, get them booted out the door ASAP. Just shows how little they care about the club and the fans! Yesterday was nothing short of a disgrace, they have succeeded in making the worst day of Hibernian FC history!

We want the players to hurt just as much as us when they loose, but a lot of them in that team wont. They will see it as a disappointment in their career, nothing more. We need players who feel passion for this club and love the club enough not to let days like yesterday happen! With maybe the exception of Sparky and O'Conner who are hibs fans, the rest don't give a toss!

Thats exactly it. Most fans can accept loosing and would have stayed till the end if the team had put in a good fight and worked their very hardest for the club but the fact is that yesterday they never, they rolled over and gave a weak, cowardly, disinterested, pathetic performance and the players didn't deserve to be applauded at the end IMO. Why should we stay and applaud THAT?! That would make the players think that we thought that was acceptable and it certainly was not. The players have to earn praise.

It doesn't matter how many times we switch managers and players. If we don't switch our mentality, then nothing will ever actually change.

We were beaten by players yesterday who played out of their skin, even after all the nonsense they've been through this season. So I can only be drawn to the conclusion that they were playing for their strip and their fans.

As it currently stands, we have no pride.

What I DO find absolutely incredible and totally objectionable is that ANY of the Hibs team had the brass neck to show their faces in public last night after that debacle. Any player that was out last night has no professional pride whatsoever and should be given their jotters imediately IMO.

Yip if they had any feeling for the club, they'd have pissed off home not showing their faces for quite a while, they were a disgrace yesterday, why they feel the need to parade themselves out in town tells me all i need to know about just how much they care about our club.

As for folk leaving early, and being pot hunters, One game attendees. There's a reason for that BF, they kick us in the baws every time we get a chance to get those fans on board.

Stayed to the end - always do - god knows why and I certainly don't blame anyone for leaving early. To avoid all the Hertz cars, I took the train to Newton, M73 / M80 / M876 / M9 and came off early out to the bridge and back in the A90 to the Maybury to drop my mate off with scarves oot the windaes all the way. I wonder if anyone who was there will agree that 1972 was a lot worse than that. In '72 we really believed we would win with a fabulously talented young team. Luckily I got arrested in '72 just after we made it 1-2. If I had been Fenlon yesterday, I would have told the players that they had to make their own way home

Stayed to the end - always do - god knows why and I certainly don't blame anyone for leaving early. To avoid all the Hertz cars, I took the train to Newton, M73 / M80 / M876 / M9 and came off early out to the bridge and back in the A90 to the Maybury to drop my mate off with scarves oot the windaes all the way. I wonder if anyone who was there will agree that 1972 was a lot worse than that. In '72 we really believed we would win with a fabulously talented young team. Luckily I got arrested in '72 just after we made it 1-2. If I had been Fenlon yesterday, I would have told the players that they had to make their own way home

Wouldnt blame anyone myself for leaving early from a game that bad!, i live in Hong Kong, and left one bar at the 70 minute mark, and went to watch the West Ham game! far better game all round, plus i like West Ham as well

Yip if they had any feeling for the club, they'd have pissed off home not showing their faces for quite a while, they were a disgrace yesterday, why they feel the need to parade themselves out in town tells me all i need to know about just how much they care about our club.

As for folk leaving early, and being pot hunters, One game attendees. There's a reason for that BF, they kick us in the baws every time we get a chance to get those fans on board.

This team/club make me sick to the stomach sometimes, is it possible to hate something you keep going back to?:boo hoo:

Matt Doherty is on Twitter asking what he should do today.

Might suggest to him he has a whip round the sqaud to.reimburse the fans for yesterday. Or even a small show of humility would be nice.

He's a cheeky twat, he can piss off back to Wolves if he wants my opinion?

We left at 80 minutes. Ordinarily I stay to the end of games but the players left a long time before me. If I thought they put in a good shift then I would have stayed to clap them off the pitch. But they didn't deserve that IMO.
These players aren't good enough simple as that barring 1 or 2, gutless, heartless and have limited ability, second worst team in the spl says it all, 2 or 3 years now the standard of players being brought to the club has been well below average and if this goes on we will continue to be in the bottom of the bottom 6, we've had more bad times than good but continue to support the team, surely we deserve better than such a pitifull performance in a derby cup final, the players yesterday certainly didn't deserve the performance of 24,000 fans

Agree, decent player but comes across as an absolute weapon IMO.

.No way was 1972 worse than that. I would not swap one of the 72 team for any of yesterday's imposters.

Not interested in the slightest in an apology.

It won't change anything, it won't get us another chance at winning the biggest match in the club's history, it won't erase the hammering that we took yesterday and it won't change the absolutely sickening feeling that I've been experiencing since about 4:30pm yesterday.

I heard Fenlon's comments yesterday about the need to change the attitude and mentality of our players from now on and that's about the only thing that's giving me any hope at the moment - the fact that our manager recognises that the players we have at the moment do not have the required mentality to be at a club like Hibs is slightly encouraging and I just hope that he's allowed to make the necessary changes in the summer to allow us to move forward and make improvements.

We really are at a crossroads at the moment and we are in a very bad place right now. We came very close to being relegated this season and we have now just had one of the worst results that we could possibly ever have imagined.

If we don't make changes now then we will continue to get even worse and I have no doubts at all that we'll be relegated at some point over the next few seasons.

I think we are all aware that it could have been a lot worse yesterday and if JJ had been Hertz Manager, he would have made sure it was - we got off lightly with the worst performance I've seen from our team. I expected us to get hammered and, after last week in Inverness when I saw how little in depth ability we had in our squad, I thought it could have been 7 or more even before the game started yesterday. Last week, I was disappointed to see how unready Ian Murray was for the game but I am now of the belief that if we had played Callum Booth at LB and Ian Murray and David Wotherspoon instead of Claros and Soares, they would have given us a much greater commitment. Personally, I forgot about the score and was genuinely surprised to see the 5 at the end - I thought it was 6. It really was the same rubbish we've seen all season.

I don't think we are any further on than we were when JC was at the Healm.

JC recognised way back then there was a problem with player mentality,
I've heard him talk about it a trillion times.
He wanted to change the way players trained, ate, and the way they take care of their bodies. A whole new life style change.
I was excited to say the least hearing him talk about how our team would be the fittest in the league.

I'm hoping RP can learn from that period and maybe do things different.
Back PF to the hilt for the next three seasons and then reevaluate.

Change is a must but not the manager again, please!

Yes it must --- Fenlon is the cheap option once again by Hibs, to active a level we want i.e. a major club in Scottish football we will need to spend appropriately to get there.

Pat Fenlon is from the lower rated league in Ireland and going by his decisions since he joined us that is his level. I have seen nothing that will convince me he is the man, his signings in January are some of the worst players seen at Easter Road, add that to Calderwood's misfits we have what we got yesterday, an embarrassment.

There are plenty of managers available just now that will be able to mould Hibs, Mcleish and Mowbray did it, Collins was about to but Rod allowed the players to dictate and has done ever since.

Is all about money, and until we spend and blend players in to a team we will continue to have season like this.

Aye, lets blame referees and we'll also blame "bad luck" while we're at it as well.

We can use these excuses for our derby record as well.

Fact of the matter is, their players care far more about their fans than our players do.

Deny it all you want, but I know it, you know it, everybody else knows it. Our players don't give a ****.

Nail hit firmly on the head, they don't realise how much the fans care and hurt, these guys don't carry the passion or pride to pull on a Hibs jersey..... You can have the best players in the world and guys that do care. But if you have a biased yam basta ref, you wont win any game. The posters on here, forewarned weeks ago about this clown. So yes, we can blame him and our bad luck he was ever born.

The ref certainly made dodgey calls yesterday, theres no getting away from that fact.

He didn't however cost us the game.

Everybody at the club (excluding the fans) should be utterly ashamed of themselves.
