Alloa 1 - 0 Hibs

[Jones28]

Come on hibs for **** sake, this has to stop.

[Keith_M]

If Alloa win this it will be their only win at home this season, another first for Hibs.


That can't be right, I thought plastic pitches gave the home side an unfair advantage?

[Sammy7nil]

However anyone wants to gloss over this, losing 1-0 to Alloa at HT, a team which will be playing in the Scottish third division next season, is an embarrassment. They are a part-time club.

Even if Hibs turn this around today, they are going nowhere IMO. Same old failings. Same old weak mentality.

Hibs can beat anyone on their day unfortunately they can also lose to anyone. I agree we just dont have a winners mentality regardless what happens today the only thing that will change my mind will be promotion or a cup win.

[emerald green]

How will it be a weak mentality if they turn it around and win? I'll give you a weak mentality if they get beat but if they keep coming from behind to win, surely that's not a weak mentality?

Btw, I'm as distraught/upset at this performance as everyone and we've been poor for a bit now, just confused as to your point?

The weak mentality comment is based on results over several seasons. Not just the latest scoreline.

How many times have Hibs come from behind to win recently? I'm not counting Tuesday night against Livingston.

Hibs should be steam rolling part time pub teams like this.

[Dublin07]

Whats your point?

Is 8 loses acceptable this season?
My point is wanting Stubbs sacked for a bad month is crazy. He inherited a total shambles and is building a team that could more than hold their own in the spl. We struggle against teams that sit in and I agree he is too stubborn with the diamond in midfield. We still have a great chance to get promoted ( our record against raith Falkirk and premiership teams this season is good) have been in a final and are in a semi final.

[HibbyKeith]

Raith take the lead. now 2-1 up at qots

[ALF TUPPER]

Who came off for Boyle ?

[GlesgaeHibby]

Cummings shoots, blocked. ball back into the box and deflected wide. another hibs corner...

floated into the box, punched clear by the keeper

Hibs love a floated cross.

[Phil MaGlass]

Even if we win today and next week?

We wont though we all know it. He cant change

[HibbyKeith]

Great ball to the back post and Gray heads wide. great chance and htv guys questioning how he managed to miss.

[SunshineOnLeith]

Why not?

[Pete]

If we match Falkirks result we will have got out of jail. We're looking lively apparently.

[HibbyKeith]

Boyle snapshot over the bar.

[HibbyKeith]

Who came off for Boyle ?

Keatings.

[SJM]

****ing come on Hibs!!!

[matty_f]

Looks like it's one way traffic at the moment, going by the Hibs twitter feed. Chance after chance after chance.

[HIBEETILLIDIE]

That can't be right, I thought plastic pitches gave the home side an unfair advantage?

Stubbs must go

[Keith_M]

I can't believe anybody still genuinely thinks we'll get promoted this season.

Look at the teams we've lost to in the last two months, not just the quality but the number of ***** teams.

[Aldo]

The biggest issue for me is that it's not the odd game it's the same pretty much most weeks at the moment.

Dominate for a spell not taking our chances and the opposition pop up and score.

We must win our remaining games and anything less is just not acceptable!

[overdrive]

My point is wanting Stubbs sacked for a bad month is crazy. He inherited a total shambles and is building a team that could more than hold their own in the spl. We struggle against teams that sit in and I agree he is too stubborn with the diamond in midfield. We still have a great chance to get promoted ( our record against raith Falkirk and premiership teams this season is good) have been in a final and are in a semi final.

His job at the moment isn't to get the team to hold their own in the top flight. His job was to win the second tier which he has failed to do or to get us promoted which he is well on his way to failing in.

[Lee Marvin]

I'd sack stubbs on Monday if we lose this. No question.

[Niffy]

It worked last game so..

Stubbs out , Stokes out.

[pennyhibee]

United losing 0-2 killie and Hamilton winning united looking bound for championship accies or killie in play off Come on Hibs

[emerald green]

Why not?

OK lets count that then. :rolleyes:

Doesn't change anything. Looking at the bigger picture.

[Andy74]

My point is wanting Stubbs sacked for a bad month is crazy. He inherited a total shambles and is building a team that could more than hold their own in the spl. We struggle against teams that sit in and I agree he is too stubborn with the diamond in midfield. We still have a great chance to get promoted ( our record against raith Falkirk and premiership teams this season is good) have been in a final and are in a semi final.

The top league doesn't matter until we get there. Stubbs hasn't shown he can get a team promoted as yet and that is our only goal just now.

[Gatecrasher]

Except we're nowhere near that stage yet. At least another year? You've got us failing to get promoted next year? At least wait on us failing this year surely?
I thought I Covered that by saying there is a real prospect of, as in a real possibility.

[ALF TUPPER]

Falkirk go ahead !!

[Jones28]

11 shots with 3 on target. Simply not good enough with the strikers we have.

[Bristolhibby]

Falkirk 2-1 up

[ALF TUPPER]

Mon Hibs ..... FFS !!!

[matty_f]

Another chance gone, Stokes free kick into the wall, Gray fires wide.

[Billychaotic182]

Falkirk winning

[HibbyKeith]

Stokes chases a long ball from Gunnerson but is unable to keep it in play. Goal kick Alloa

[Dunbar Hibee]

I'd sack stubbs on Monday if we lose this. No question.

Aye, that's what to do.

**** me

[bawheid]

I thought I Covered that by saying there is a real prospect of, as in a real possibility.

Of not going up next year as well? How is there a real prospect of that?

[Aldo]

Has the Alloa keeper had a save to make??

[H18 SFR]

Falkirk winning. Stubbs must go!

[pennyhibee]

Jesus a dozen chances and we canny score 2-1 falkirk

[Hibernia&Alba]

If we match Falkirks result we will have got out of jail. We're looking lively apparently.

Looking lively? Come on, Pete, it's Alloa. I admire the fact you always stay behind the club, but this is appalling.

[HibbyKeith]

Cummings miss hits his shot across the 6 yard box and gray cant get on the end of the ball. goal kick Alloa.

[AL-Qaholik]

Aye, that's what to do.

**** me

Aye, that's exactly what to do. We are going absolutely nowhere right now and he clearly doesn't know how to fix it. We won't sack him, but we definitely should.

[Martymck]

why do hibs always make life for us and themselves ? getting really sick of it.

[Billychaotic182]

Spence now saying that since he slagged Stokes he has upped his game.

[Onceinawhile]

How many chances does David Gray need to hit the target ffs?

[SaulGoodman]

Getting beyond a joke the amount of chances we miss now.

[Captain Trips]

If we fail to finish 2nd in this league he should be sacked. Regardless of playoffs he has had a full season of matches and if he cannot get this team 2nd then I do not want him anywhere near an spl campaign. Not that long ago we argued on here about what would happen if we didnt finish in top 3 in SPL.

Sorry no way is 3rd acceptable.

[Lago]

Oh dear more wife lodgic, if Hibs don't watch out Raith may over take them, no way I said then looked at the table and immediately changed my mind, it could happen.

[Stuarty27]

Stubbs should be sacked for this.

Worst run of league results in our history.

The guy is a joke

[CmoantheHibs]

Lets get a goal now Hibs. Give us a bit of time to get the winner.

[green day]

70 mins gone, 1 down to a relegated team of plumbers and joiners. I am getting closer to the "Stubbs out" party.

Clueless tactically.

[Andy74]

Of not going up next year as well? How is there a real prospect of that?

Of course there is. It's looking like 3 rounds of games. 2 at best. It's probably 50/50 so that's a fairly real prospect.

[Peanut Shaz]

The weak mentality of our club has been apparent for decades now, there's very rarely any fire or belief in team performances and we are far too apologetic and obliging to opponents instead on showing them no respect. Until this is addressed things will remain the same.[/QUOTE]

This! It's all very nice being a Community club etc etc but as far as the football side of things go we have to toughen up. Nor just on match day but overall. Stop being the nice guys all the time.

[cabbageandribs1875]

[bawheid]

If we fail to finish 2nd in this league he should be sacked. Regardless of playoffs he has had a full season of matches and if he cannot get this team 2nd then I do not want him anywhere near an spl campaign.

So if we were to finish third and be promoted through the play offs he should be sacked? FFS, who let you back in!

[Edson Arantes]

Falkirk go ahead !!

Bollox

Shut up.

This isn't weak, it's just pish.

[Onion]

Clueless tactically.

Give it a few minutes and we'll spring the old "4 up front" master plan :greengrin

[McIntosh]

Absolutely shocking

[HibbyKeith]

Cummings off Dagnall on.

[Jones28]

2 months ago we were a totally different side. What the hell has happened in the space of 6 weeks?

[Gatecrasher]

Of not going up next year as well? How is there a real prospect of that?

Because we aren't performing to the standards required to be promoted at the moment which means if we don't go up this year, unless there are some changes we could struggle next year as well.

[The_Horde]

So many clinical teams in this league. It's incredible..

[Johnny_Leith]

How many times have Hibs come from behind to win recently? I'm not counting Tuesday night against Livingston.

Hibs should be steam rolling part time pub teams like this.

To be fair we've came back to draw against Falkirk twice, Hearts in the cup,
St mirren at home, St mirren away.

Interestingly Livingston is the only time Hibs have came from behind to win a game this season so far.

I agree tho, we should be hammering teams in this division. Definitely raises questions over Stubbs for me.

[Jim44]

All those calling for Stubbs' scalp needn't bother. If we don't go up, he will walk.

[Dublin07]

His job at the moment isn't to get the team to hold their own in the top flight. His job was to win the second tier which he has failed to do or to get us promoted which he is well on his way to failing in.
Rangers had a massive budget compared to ours. He is not on his way to failing to get us promotion. We are in the play offs and would be favourite to beat any of the teams we will face.
We could lose 10-0 today and still be in the play offs. losing to Alloa is shocking but some folk on here are so negative they should avoid anywhere with sharp objects around. Rangers just managed a 1-1 draw there on a terrible pitch that has been narrowed to stop any decent team playing football.

[Lee Marvin]

Stubbs should be sacked for this.

Worst run of league results in our history.

The guy is a joke

I 100% believe we have a better chance going up in playoffs with someone else in charge. Therefore, he should be sacked.

Not starting Boyle after tuesday was an effin disgrace. Esp when keatings starts. Lost all trust I'm him now

[bawheid]

Of course there is. It's looking like 3 rounds of games. 2 at best. It's probably 50/50 so that's a fairly real prospect.

No. Gatecrasher has us as unlikely to go up next season. Having already written us off as failing this season. My view is it's too early to say that.

[hibsbollah]

This is beyond belief.

[Heisenberg]

As i said get Stubbs to ****. This isn't good enough and hasn't been for a long time.

[Albanian Hibs]

Like a pre season game. ****ing awful.

[ALF TUPPER]

Come on Dags !! Score a goal son .....

[LaMotta]

Cummings off Dagnall on.

Oh dear.

[SaulGoodman]

All those calling for Stubbs' scalp needn't bother. If we don't go up, he will walk.

I feel like he needs to go now for us to have any chance in the play offs

[Niffy]

Rangers had a massive budget compared to ours. He is not on his way to failing to get us promotion. We are in the play offs and would be favourite to beat any of the teams we will face.

But Alloa are winning, maybe Hibs should try something similar, go part time and play on a narrow pitch.

[bawheid]

Because we aren't performing to the standards required to be promoted at the moment which means if we don't go up this year, unless there are some changes we could struggle next year as well.

I see the point you're making. Far too early for that sort of negativity IMO though.

[Thecat23]

This is mental that we just can't score. Many chances do we ****ing need here. Stokes and Cummings should have a serious look at themselves. These guys should be doing far better!

As for Stubbs, no one I don't think can defend a loss to Alloa no matter how many shots we have. This is brutal and he'll be under real pressure and rightly so.

[Dunbar Hibee]

Aye, that's exactly what to do. We are going absolutely nowhere right now and he clearly doesn't know how to fix it. We won't sack him, but we definitely should.

What a lot of ****.

[Captain Trips]

So if we were to finish third and be promoted through the play offs he should be sacked? FFS, who let you back in!

Aye he should, 3rd in this league you serious? 3rd in the 2nd tier is alright is it? Ih he is still here he should be punted after playoffs regardless, aye his job was to get us up last year and one year on we are struggling to finish 2nd? so FFS aye. A manager with loads more resoucres than 10 of the other clubs and we still are looking at not even finishing above all of them.

That what your looking for in the SPL gross underachievment?

[adhibs]

All those calling for Stubbs' scalp needn't bother. If we don't go up, he will walk.

Im of the opinion he should go now, never mind after leaving us suffering another season in this tin pot league. Get someone in who will atleast give us a chance of going up this year. Needs done now before its too late.

[H18 SFR]

Top scorer off, guy who has never scored for us on.

[supermcginn]

As i said get Stubbs to ****. This isn't good enough and hasn't been for a long time.

His position is untenable if we lose this, shocking stuff!

[Dunbar Hibee]

Ok so for everyone that wants Stubbs out just now, who do we get in to get us promoted???

[ALF TUPPER]

All those calling for Stubbs' scalp needn't bother. If we don't go up, he will walk.

Why do you think that ? I'd have thought he'd be more determined ....... ? 😳

[HibbyKeith]

Alloa break, shoot and Oxley saves. palms the ball out and the danger is cleared by Hanlon.

[McIntosh]

There is no excuses for this.

[blackpoolhibs]

Lets be honest here, Alloa are more than just footballers, some of them are teachers, plumbers and lorry drivers.

We only have players who play football as their main job, and cant possibly be the equal of a team of players who multi task as much as these lads.

[chrisski33]

I 100% believe we have a better chance going up in playoffs with someone else in charge. Therefore, he should be sacked.

Not starting Boyle after tuesday was an effin disgrace. Esp when keatings starts. Lost all trust I'm him now
Personally think he dismissed falkirk earlier on when we were on our good run amd its come back to haunt him just like comments about rangers before they beat us. Personnally feel beating hearts was our downfall tbh

[mcfly]

Another season in this league is unthinkable and charging top whack for a season ticket is not on

[H18 SFR]

Im of the opinion he should go now, never mind after leaving us suffering another season in this tin pot league. Get someone in who will atleast give us a chance of going up this year. Needs done now before its too late.

I hate the thought of yet another incompetent employee getting a pay-off, that said, I'd happily contribute to his pay-off.

[Lee Marvin]

This is easily as bad a run as butcher, all things taken into account. Disgrace, absolute disgrace

[essexhibee]

If we don't go up I'm not sure how it can be justified he be allowed to continue.

[Col2]

He won't be sacked. Not now but this is totally unacceptable on any level.

We got lucky in midweek but didn't play well for first 60 mins.

[HibbyKeith]

Henderson cross deflects right into the arms of the Alloa keeper.

[SouthsideHarp_Bhoy]

I feel like he needs to go now for us to have any chance in the play offs

Kind of where i am.

Ive no confidence in him or this team to get promoted. Hes hadvtwo seasons and we are still showibg the same failings.

[Niffy]

Another season in this league is unthinkable and charging top whack for a season ticket is not on

Dundee Utd won't be keen to stay in the 2nd tier, so it may well come to a 3 team fight for play offs again. This could be a long haul episode.

[Edson Arantes]

Beyond belief.

Totally peed off now.

[Jim44]

Rangers had a massive budget compared to ours. He is not on his way to failing to get us promotion. We are in the play offs and would be favourite to beat any of the teams we will face.

How can you possibly come to that conclusion?:confused:

[HibbyKeith]

10mins remaining.

Alloa break into the box, he skips away from Gray and shoots but the ball is wide, shot would have been covered by Oxley.

[Lee Marvin]

If we don't go up I'm not sure how it can be justified he be allowed to continue.

There is no justification. None. Zero.

[Ozyhibby]

Ok so for everyone that wants Stubbs out just now, who do we get in to get us promoted???

Are you saying he is the best manager in the world? That there is nobody out there who could mastermind a win over Alloa?

[Andy74]

Ok so for everyone that wants Stubbs out just now, who do we get in to get us promoted???

Not many of us will keep abreast of who is who and might be available. Not really our job to have the answer to that. Are you saying no one could do better than Stubbs? Because Houston seems to be doing alright with much less resource for example.

[McIntosh]

Something has to be done.

[emerald green]

To be fair we've came back to draw against Falkirk twice, Hearts in the cup,
St mirren at home, St mirren away.

Interestingly Livingston is the only time Hibs have came from behind to win a game this season so far.

I agree tho, we should be hammering teams in this division. Definitely raises questions over Stubbs for me.

I agree. If Hibs are ever to get out of this division they shouldn't have to be coming back to get draws against teams of the standard you mention.

The cup tie against Hearts was a one-off local derby. A game they actually should have won, at Tynecastle.

[21.05.2016]

This is unaccetable hibs get the ****ing finger out! Getting beat by a team of part time post men, plumbers etc.

Shocking stuff.

[number9dream]

It's like a bad dream. A really bad dream... The season has just crumbled to dust and no one saw it coming.

[Pete]

Looking lively? Come on, Pete, it's Alloa. I admire the fact you always stay behind the club, but this is appalling.

They weren't my words. We're looking rubbish now apparently. :-(

Maybe in the bookies' eyes we would be favourites, not in reality though. The Premiership team will be favourites and I have my doubts we will even get to play the Premiership team

To be fair , I think the point is , it can't be hard to find someone better right now.

[Stuarty27]

Absolute disgrace to be losing to teams like Dumbarton and Alloa.

Get him to **** and let someone else rescue this season

The guy is a complete tool. Some of the things he has said in media have embarrassed this club. On the way from home on Tuesday I heard him say on live radio that Boyles goal was the best in the world football. No mention of the dreadfull 70mins.

Joke of a manager

[Gatecrasher]

I see the point you're making. Far too early for that sort of negativity IMO though.

I appreciate that however I can/will worry until I see a big improvement in our performances. Im not seeing much filling me with confidence right now.

[Dunbar Hibee]

Not many of us will keep abreast of who is who and might be available. Not really our job to have the answer to that. Are you saying no one could do better than Stubbs? Because Houston seems to be doing alright with much less resource for example.

Just curious as to who all the football geniuses want to replace Stubbs at this stage of the season.

[Onceinawhile]

10 to go and we've still only used two subs??

[H18 SFR]

Not many of us will keep abreast of who is who and might be available. Not really our job to have the answer to that. Are you saying no one could do better than Stubbs? Because Houston seems to be doing alright with much less resource for example.

Mike ****ing Basset could get us out this league with our resources.

[HibbyKeith]

Dagnall with a half chance but offside flag is up.

6 mins remaining.

[cabbageandribs1875]

it's really quite sad that a club our size are depending on the the likes of st.mirren and q.o.s. to help us...so sad

[McIntosh]

This is not acceptable - I don't want to hear any excuses.

[Heisenberg]

Stubbs is ****ing clueless. He uses the same tactics and the same set up in the hope that it somehow all turns itself around.

[PiemanP]

I don't think sacking Stubbs mid season is right. But come May if we aren't in the premier league then he should be dismissed. Immediately too to let whoever comes in next actually build a team that can score goals against Scottish second tier teams.

[Hibernia&Alba]

I honestly thought Stubbs had changed the Hibs mentality by instilling some spine into the squad. What a **** dick I am: I should know better as a Hibs fan. I'm so tired of our propensity to embarrass ourselves.

[emerald green]

Falkirk 2-2

[greenpaper55]

I bet you Rod will not sleep a wink tonight-not.

[Ozyhibby]

Just curious as to who all the football geniuses want to replace Stubbs at this stage of the season.

Stuart McCall would not be losing games like this.

[Aldo]

Fail to win today and 2nd spot looks out with our own control. The way we have been playing doesn't bode well for the play offs if we continue to play the way we have been. Couple of massive games coming up!

[mcfly]

at this stage of the season momentum is everything and we have none.

That bonding holiday in Spain was a waste of time.

Stubbs has to stop the talking and get winning games

[SaulGoodman]

I bet you Rod will not sleep a wink tonight-not.

Wtf does Rod have to do with this?

[Captain Trips]

So expectations were probably battle to win league with Rangers with Rangers favs but as long as did well and were comfortably 2nd all ok? Or piss league away with weeks to go and the battle is actually 2nd/3rd with us 3rd just now?

Glad to see the massive strides from last year.

[HibbyKeith]

Stokes does well, plays the ball into Dagnall who cant get the ball out his feet.

[green day]

Stubbs is ****ing clueless. He uses the same tactics and the same set up in the hope that it somehow all turns itself around.

But he has a team round him, surely they must have told him?

[hibsbollah]

It's like a bad dream. A really bad dream... The season has just crumbled to dust and no one saw it coming.

:agree: all that needs to be said really. Humiliating.
It's all about Tuesday for me. Beat Falkirk and we're back in the driving seat. But I can't see us getting past Raith Rovers. Which says it all.

[blackpoolhibs]

Just curious as to who all the football geniuses want to replace Stubbs at this stage of the season.

How is the football genius we currently have doing? :rolleyes:

[H18 SFR]

Not many of us will keep abreast of who is who and might be available. Not really our job to have the answer to that. Are you saying no one could do better than Stubbs? Because Houston seems to be doing alright with much less resource for example.


I don't think sacking Stubbs mid season is right. But come May if we aren't in the premier league then he should be dismissed. Immediately too to let whoever comes in next actually build a team that can score goals against Scottish second tier teams.


Get the new manager in now to assess the squad.

[bawheid]

I appreciate that however I can/will worry until I see a big improvement in our performances. Im not seeing much filling me with confidence right now.

Me neither! It's a major slump no doubt. A 1-0 loss at Alloa will be the worst this season.

However it was only a month or so ago we were in excellent form. I live in hope we can recapture it. Soon!

[Niffy]

Wtf does Rod have to do with this?

Rod will be nudging Dempster and whispering "Not so easy eh...?"

[Lee Marvin]

The definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

I therefore declare alan stubbs clinically insane!!!!!

[Hibernia&Alba]

Has stokes signing actually benefited us? I think not.

Let's not scapegoat Stokes or any other individual. This is a collective shambles.

[McIntosh]

Stuart McCall would not be losing games like this. this is who I would go for

[greenpaper55]

Wtf does Rod have to do with this?

The man responsible for the whole sorry mess we are in

[GlesgaeHibby]

I don't think sacking Stubbs mid season is right. But come May if we aren't in the premier league then he should be dismissed. Immediately too to let whoever comes in next actually build a team that can score goals against Scottish second tier teams.

Im in two minds. We are in play offs, if we sack now we can potentially get somebody in to turn us around in time for play offs.

[lucky]

It's hard to defend the club and manager when we've lost twice to Dumbarton and look like losing to Alloa.

[Ozyhibby]

Wtf does Rod have to do with this?

Seriously? He's the chairman of a failing club.

[Dunbar Hibee]

How is the football genius we currently have doing? :rolleyes:

BH I didn't say that Stubbs was a football genius. Just genuinely curious who everyone would want to replace him.

[Stuarty27]

Me neither! It's a major slump no doubt. A 1-0 loss at Alloa will be the worst this season.

However it was only a month or so ago we were in excellent form. I live in hope we can recapture it. Soon!

it's not just a slump over a month, we have been terrible since ibrox at xmas

[Onion]

I honestly thought Stubbs had changed the Hibs mentality by instilling some spine into the squad. What a **** dick I am: I should know better as a Hibs fan. I'm so tired of our propensity to embarrass ourselves.

This :agree: Up until Xmas, it was all happy families and team spirit. Probably what was carrying Stubbs along without him having to do a great deal... then the collapse. This was the true test for Stubbs and frankly he's failed miserably. Do Celtic still not want him ?

[theonlywayisup]

I'm afraid to say this but he has to go. I'm not convinced he knows what he is doing.

Get someone experienced in now. Someone short term.

[chrisski33]

at this stage of the season momentum is everything and we have none.

That bonding holiday in Spain was a waste of time.

Stubbs has to stop the talking and get winning games
Spain was a waste and noone could see it would be. No doubt theu will go again and the same result will occur

[21.05.2016]

Huge anti-climax of a signing. Had his moments but has nowhere near lived up to the expectation I had of him when we signed him in January. I thought he'd score a barrel load in this league.

[Jim44]

Saints equalise. Out of jail?

Falkirk's score is irrelevant. We won't be out of jail until we show we are capable of winning a game of football, which we can't.

[SaulGoodman]

Seriously? He's the chairman of a failing club.

I agree, why Rod Petrie keeps putting out this team in a diamond situation baffles me.

And what about these dross players we've splashed money on this season eh

[GlesgaeHibby]

Me neither! It's a major slump no doubt. A 1-0 loss at Alloa will be the worst this season.

However it was only a month or so ago we were in excellent form. I live in hope we can recapture it. Soon!

Aye, once we have fyvie and Hanlon back from injury....

[Niffy]

BH I didn't say that Stubbs was a football genius. Just genuinely curious who everyone would want to replace him.

One of the "hundreds of high quality applicants" that always apply for the job.

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

Killie 3-0. If we somehow get past Raith and Falkirk we'll prob play them...

[Captain Trips]

Get the new manager in now to assess the squad.

The rot is in we allowed Butcher the playoffs when it was clearly shot tae ****, I would like the chage before playoffs as for me finishing 3rd is just not acceptable. the league stops and we have play off games but we would have a manager that cannot even manage 2nd with 2 seasons behind him.

[The Spaceman]

Still behind Stubbs and the team. We are in the playoffs and semi finals of the national cup. Come on Hibs, we can still end up with promotion and the Scottish!

[emerald green]

Rangers had a massive budget last year Hearts won the league wit SEVEN games to go

:agree: And they were not getting beat by teams like Alloa. They even beat some pub team 10-0. Cowdenbeath I think.

I hate to say it, but these are the facts.

[greenpaper55]

I agree, why Rod Petrie keeps putting out this team in a diamond situation baffles me.

And what about these dross players we've splashed money on this season eh

Rod Petries team was Butcher and Malpas and all the other duds.

[blackpoolhibs]

BH I didn't say that Stubbs was a football genius. Just genuinely curious who everyone would want to replace him.

My arse, you were having a go at folk who dont think this current incumbent is doing such a sterling job.

[Coco Bryce]

Let's face it, we are ****! :rolleyes:

[carnoustiehibee]

BH I didn't say that Stubbs was a football genius. Just genuinely curious who everyone would want to replace him.

Give me the money rod and dempster get and I'll find someone better.

[Sammy7nil]

Just curious as to who all the football geniuses want to replace Stubbs at this stage of the season.

I dont want him replaced at this stage BUT if this run of form had started 6 weeks earlier i think he would have been sacked and he could have few complaints

[pennyhibee]

Let's be honest faalkirk seem more deserving than us and no I don't think stubbs will take us up Dagnall booked ,about the only thing he does

[mentalhibee]

Still behind Stubbs and the team. We are in the playoffs and semi finals of the national cup. Come on Hibs, we can still end up with promotion and the Scottish!

Not going to happen sadly.

[Yorkshire HFC]

Beyond belief.

Totally peed off now.

Yep - thank goodness I don't live in Edinburgh and that I only go to a few games a season. I'll always be a Hibbee, but like many others, I've been driven to only following on the Internet by the poor performances of these players. To think that a month ago I was reading on here that so many of them should be in the Scotland squad, that we had a £2m striker, a manager that we were in danger of losing to Celtic, making fun of Hearts etc. How many of these players would be in a Championship best team for the season? #getreal

[Waxy]

Goal Falkirk

[ALF TUPPER]

Falkirk score a third

[Delboy4]

3-2 Bairns

[The Green Goblin]

I agree, why Rod Petrie keeps putting out this team in a diamond situation baffles me.

And what about these dross players we've splashed money on this season eh

It was Rod Petrie's stewardship of the club that got us here in the first place.

[stoneyburn hibs]

It's hard to defend the club and manager when we've lost twice to Dumbarton and look like losing to Alloa.

Yep, unacceptable.

[#FromTheCapital]

Falkirk 3-2

[Thecat23]

Falkirk 3-2

[Onceinawhile]

Ffs. That's second place gone.

[matty_f]

Falkirk 3-2 St Mirren.

[AL-Qaholik]

Falkirk ahead. Raith winning.

Just **** off, Stubbs.

[Weststandwanab]

Give me the money rod and dempster get and I'll find someone better.

Who would you get ?

[Since90+2]

Stubbs had to go now. If he doesn't we have absolutely no chance of going up in the playoffs.

[The Gorf]

Falkirk three

[McIntosh]

Something is badly wrong

[21.05.2016]

Falkirk score winner in the last miniute.

[Thegreenside]

3 5 2



That is all

[HibbyKeith]

Falkirk 90th min winner

3-2

[#FromTheCapital]

Lose next week and Stubbs has to go.

[Onceinawhile]

Have we used our third sub yet?

What's the point of handling on the bench if we aren't going to use him?

[Aldo]

We cannot score, we've struggle for weeks and TBH we are dire!

Shocking

[Hibernia&Alba]

Falkirk score winner in the last miniute.

Well that just caps it all off.

[ALF TUPPER]

No doubt Stubbs will get the message in a few seconds !!!!

[emerald green]

Me neither! It's a major slump no doubt. A 1-0 loss at Alloa will be the worst this season.

However it was only a month or so ago we were in excellent form. I live in hope we can recapture it. Soon!

The bit in bold. Nonsense.

My source? An interview in the papers with Lewis Stevenson where he said Hibs hadn't been playing well since Christmas. He gave no reason as to why that was the case.

[Pete]

Falkirk's score is irrelevant. We won't be out of jail until we show we are capable of winning a game of football, which we can't.

It's far from irrelevant.

However we're now firmly back in jail. FFS.

[rotherhamrob]

A total embarrassment of a result,everyone of the team, management and coaches should be ashamed of a result like this.

[Onceinawhile]

FT.

[21.05.2016]

Let's be honest faalkirk seem more deserving than us

Sadly I agree

[McIntosh]

Lose next week and Stubbs has to go. on the money

[supermcginn]

Stubbs had to go now. If he doesn't we have absolutely no chance of going up in the playoffs.

Spot on, get McCall in to tomorrow and get some width in this team

[coldingham hibs]

Utter dross.

[GlesgaeHibby]

Lose next week and Stubbs has to go.

Lose against Falkirk on Tuesday and it's time for him to go:agree:

[Greenblood70]

Stubbs has to go after this result, totally unacceptable run of results and performances.

[Joe6-2]

Lose next week and Stubbs has to go.

Expect to win? Just had one of our worst ever results, with so much at stake!

[Yorkshire HFC]

How is the football genius we currently have doing? :rolleyes:

Who could we attract to take over?

[Dunbar Hibee]

My arse, you were having a go at folk who dont think this current incumbent is doing such a sterling job.

Oh **** off

[Bristolhibby]

I've not been to a game all season. It will be the first time since I moved down South in 1989. I just feel sad, my anger was used up seasons ago.

Don't know what needs to be done, but fingers have to be pulled out, no tika taka, run and be direct. Shoot on sight. Ban lofted crosses.

FT 1-0

**** off!

J

[Halifaxhibby]

Absolute garbage. We reached our peak beating hearts. Ever since then nothing but an embarrasment. AGAIN!!!!

[Coco Bryce]

What a ****ing embarrassment we are.

[cabbageandribs1875]

well done Falkirk and Raith rovers, getting the opportunities and ******* taking them

[Andy74]

The latest of a number of unacceptable results. Shambles.

[Baader]

Absolutely shocking.

[dmc1875]

The last two months have been so atrocious other managers would have been sacked for less.

No drive, constantly playing a formation everyone knows has been sussed out, refusing to change it up, demoralising probably the players as well as the supporters.

Every game is the same. Can't score, get a sucker punch. It was totally unacceptable weeks ago now it's just beyond a joke.

Unbelievable

[21.05.2016]

An absolute embarrassment of a result. Absolutely ****ing unacceptable.

[Hibs90]

Sack him now and we might at least have the chance of going up. Anyone who thinks he should stay is clearly been on the happy stuff. We just lost 1-0 to relegated Alloa. That alone is bad enough but this run of games has been disgraceful. The club has dropped to a new all time low.

[Dunbar Hibee]

Give me the money rod and dempster get and I'll find someone better.

Aye of course you will mate.

[kdhibees1]

Disgusting result and yet another kick in the teeth. Shambolic end to a decent start to the season. Looking likely finishing another season with another manager who has massively failed!!!

[bawheid]

Terrible result. Probably the worst since Stubbs took over.

[ionahibby]

I wasn't even that concerned at half time i thought we would at least score. I'm baffled with hibs at the moment.

[flash]

That is one of our worst results in living memory.
He should go tonight.

[hibsbollah]

Boyle not starting is the worst lineup decision since Mowbray put a green Benji up front on his own in the cup semi. I just cant understand it.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

All of the other teams involved with the play offs will want us. Something far from right just now. The earlier unbeaten run of twenty games or so is irrelevant.

[Waxy]

Alloa. A team already relegated and we lose when the three points mean everything to us? Look at both these squads? Look at the wages difference. What is happening?

[RoxburghHibs]

Have to say I have been a huge fan of Stubbs but he has to go now.

[lucky]

This is the worst result of the season. The question is why has our challenge fell apart?

[Joe Baker2]

Stubbs came in at a bad time and rebuilt the team - but only to a championship standard. Sadly he doesn't have the experience to get us promoted. He's spent - no further ideas. A more experienced manager would get far more out of the talent we have. I think he'll do the right thing and jump at the end of the season.

[jodjam]

A good squad being set up badly. Stubbs should be replaced

[givescotlandfreedom]

Pathetic

[Heisenberg]

Cheerio Stubbsy. Again it's come to the main part of the season when results actually matter and we've fallen apart. He hasn't learned a thing from last season whatsoever. Same ***** with different players.

[Keith_M]

I'm now resigned myself to another season in this league.

There is no way this side can win through three rounds of the play-offs.

[dmc1875]

We are going to get the usual garbage now of "still in our hands" bla bla

[shamo9]

Stubbs has shown no sign of being able to turn this around. He still persists with the same 'tactics' that have consistently failed for weeks. He needs to go. This is unacceptable.

[carnoustiehibee]

Aye of course you will mate.

You defending this ***** like?

[Franck Stanton]

Ok so for everyone that wants Stubbs out just now, who do we get in to get us promoted???


Exactly, too all those shouting for Stubbs head, be careful what you ask for, you may just get it. If you think we are in a mess just now, god help us if he does go. Mental, just pure mental.

[Allant1981]

Sorry but thats jut not good enough, stubbs needs to have a serious think about his future i think, he needs to get a plan b or c or accept he just isnt good enough

[CRAZYHIBBY]

This season is over for us...stubbs has taken us as far as he can

[Allant1981]

Exactly, too all those shouting for Stubbs head, be careful what you ask for, you may just get it. If you think we are in a mess just now, god help us if he does go. Mental, just pure mental.

Aye cause there are no managers out there who are better or good enough to get us out this league, have a word

[Cheshire Hibby]

That will teach our manager to talk of trebles. Since then we appear to have been dire. Probably struggling to be third so 6 games to get promotion. I hope we get this sorted out sometime soon.

[The Green Goblin]

Aye of course you will mate.

What do you think we should do?

Stick it out and hope for the best? Look at where we are.

[21.05.2016]

We've collapsed, we've completely collapsed.

[ALF TUPPER]

Disgusted !!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Wtf! What would be worse than 3 years in the championship with his budget. Neilson and Houston can work with nothing. But roll up and buy your £360 season tickets. Mug

[BarneyHibby]

Shocking, absolutely shocking...:rolleyes:

[Bristolhibby]

This.

2 legs v Raith
2 legs v Falkirk
2 legs v Killy

Ain't happening.

Alloa Athletic hadn't won a game at home all season. We are on a run of something like 2 wins in 9 games in this woeful league. People can't defend Stubbs because they don't know who we'd replace him with. That's not up to the supporters. Simple fact is he's not doing his job to a high enough standard and should walk.

[The_Horde]

Hibs twitter. Chance for Hibs, chance for Hibs. Chance for Hibs. Goal for alloa. Chance for Hibs. Chance for Hibs and so on. Just rubbish. Complete and utter gash

[coldingham hibs]

Seriously, do you think it could get worse. Nobody cares a jot now, season as good as over. We won't win another game this season.
