There's not been a feel-good factor for ages, if we are in the bottom half after the first round of games, worry but so far all heckingbottom has done is get thumped by rangers and save our season last year.

He seems a genuine sort, I'm 100% sure he's a good coach but I'm not convinced he's a manager.

Tommy Wright is under all kinds of pressure after the start they have had to the season, they are utter garbage and they were well worth their point today.

The rational part of me knows we don't really have any ground to sack him but my gut feeling is we need to be as ruthlessly decisive as Leeds and deal with our mistake early.

Nobody was booing the subs - the ire was at the decision to take off Scott Allan.

The manager won't be gone any time soon - sacking him this early doesn't make sense. I'm not at all convinced but he still deserves another couple months at least to get it right.

Said it when he joined he just didn’t feel right and he’s proving that now.awful manager who we need to remove ASAP.it was always going to come down to his signings this summer which have been garbage. Substitutions and starting line ups all over the place.we still have a week to go.if we can get him out today we can bring 1 or 2 quality players in which might just be enough to save the season.he should do the honorable things and walk. ********

No point changing manager now. A lot of money has been spent on bringing in Heckingbottom's squad - you've got to give him until December to see if he can work things out.

But, if there's no improvement by then you don't want to give him another transfer window.

We have been very poor so far this season. Home games against St Mirren, Morton and St J. Football on show awful. St J were the better team from about 25 mins onwards. We scored our 2nd against the run of play.
Then, at home, we couldn't get the ball off them. Their equaliser was coming you knew it. 93 mins 40 secs on the clock and still know we are going to get done.

Horgan a few poor balls - left footed winger on the right. Allan not quoted, best midfielder, No. 10 playing on the right.

Today has done it for me - Heckingbottom out

[truehibernian]

Got a point, but my word the football is eye bleeding and slow. That's bottom 6 or worse football. No belief, no desire, no work rate and terribly unbalanced in midfield. Zero pace or enthusiasm to get on that ball and make something happen - dreadful watching.

Nothing absolutely nothing to do with players attitudes or professionalism at all? Where was the will to win the closing down the spaces in midfield the leaders on the pitch you know the guys who have been here and been playing for the club or are they immune to criticism. It seems to me like alot of people have the daggers out for PH but let's put it Into perspective AS failed to get us out of the championship granted we won the holy grail but if he hadn't delivered it would have been a failure. NL a 16 game winless run it's ok tho as he is a winner and lets face it some of his signings were duds as well. Maybe look at the players and not the manager all the time

[GreenCastle]

On way back from game...that was horrendous.

We have a massive problem.

Majority of fans don’t want him.
Players don’t look like they are enjoying the style of play / formation.
He’s making players like Allan look like poor players.
If we get a new manager he has to work with these signings-we said Lennon didn’t have balance - this team looks truly lost and full of individuals.

Worried - can’t actually remember the last time we played well.

Agree with others - he’s a nice guy but we need more than that.

This is the most bewildering fact for me. We spent a fair amount of last season Lambasting Lennon's team selections with players playing out of position needlessly even taking injuries in to consideration. Heckingbottom comes in steadies ship and shows faith in the same players by playing them pretty much as is week in week out ultimately turning a bad season in to a somewhat positive one with a good run of games before the split.

Start of the new season with his own players in and he plays a midfield playmaker out wide, with a right midfielder sitting on the bench... I just can't fathom what his though process was for this decision. This is what lead to the booing (a discussion for another thread perhaps). Strange one.

[TheMentalHibees]

Don’t like calling for a managers head, with loads of new signings there’s bound to be a bedding in period, but there’s been no signs of progress. If anything we’re getting worse. Made a rod for his own back with his chat about new levels of fitness and a high pressing game, starting to seem more like he can talk the talk but not walk the walk.

I don't think we were unlucky to draw today. St Johnstone would have plenty grounds to argue they were worth their point. How many saves did we force their keeper to make? How many clear cut chances did we create? They had more possession, more shots, more shots on target and the same number of corners.

[pacoluna]

Lennon's fault

[Deansy]

Sorry Hecky but that's it for me - an absolutely abysmal performance today !. Ok, certain players just aren't doing it but throughout the whole team there's no fight, no determination - St.Johnstone were bound to get a second, especially in the last 20-25 mins seeing as we took every opportunity to give Saints their ball back (none of our players wanted it !) and our defending consisting of marking their players but never actually tackling them !.

[GreenCastle]

He has pretty much destroyed our support in only a few weeks.

That was the old relegation Hibs and we deserve better.

[Diclonius]

Remember back in the Stubbs/Lennon days when we constantly won the ball in the middle of the park? I actually can't remember that happening once today.

[Curried]

Apart from Kamberi and Middleton, I thought we were very poor throughout.
The midfield had no drive, or dig, and the defense were at least a yard off the pace.
The Saints wingers were pretty good, but have a strong feeling that this will be a very long season unless there's a significant change in personnel.

Getting battered for the last 20 mins at home by St Johnstone is a disgrace. There is no cohesion out there and and it’s not just the new players.

I think he has vastly underestimated the kind of player to improve our club in this league. Signings, selection and tactics being found out. He’s out his depth.

[Leith Green]

Whether it's arrogance, ignorance or incompetence; Heckinbottom's not the right man and has to go.

Tactically we are a shambles, too soft and slow and we are far too content to concede space and possession to the opposition. Yet, he doesn't learn and still persists game after game with the same dross!

It's going to be a long hard season with this clown at the helm, get him to **** now and do us all a favour.

I’ll be honest I was at the game today and at 2-1 one up I was thinking what are people moaning about when were winning? But ending up a draw with a hopeless St. Johnstone side just isn’t good enough. And having spoke to a couple of mates who were at the game and said it was that bad there would probably have been a couple of boo’s at full time even if we had won 2-1. We are in for a long hard season.

Yes, Allan was poor but that was due to playing out of position. Which was totally inevitable. If the manager wanted to play 4-4-2 he should have had the balls to drop Allan entirely.

To leave Vela in that role and remove Allan was crazy and it played out exactly as people expected. Vela was lucky if he touched the ball 3 times in the last 20 minutes.

Absolutely. Folk going to the football, forgetting it’s all about a day out supporting your team. Expectations of Champions League winning fitba here

What?

Why post this?

[hibeerealist]

I don't think we were unlucky to draw today. St Johnstone would have plenty grounds to argue they were worth their point. How many saves did we force their keeper to make? How many clear cut chances did we create? They had more possession, more shots, more shots on target and the same number of corners.


Agreed that was my take on the game St J were not lucky to get a draw. Don't know what game some of the folk on here watched today

[Speedway]

As Stubbs said ‘give me any title you want, as far as I’m concerned I’m the manager’

[A Hi-Bee]

Fully agreed.

We deserve better and we have had a shocker here.

Manager and assistant need paid off.

His 9 players also - some of them on 3 year deals!

As the title says,
Bring Alan Stubbs back to Hibs, see if we can get the other two to agree to join him, at least it was never boring wi Stubbsy as the main man.

[H18S NX]

The fitba on display was absolutely dire,enough is enough,i honestly can't see it improving anytime soon.

[Golden Bear]

Been sticking up for Hecky until now. He has to go - shame as thought he was going to be a very good manager.

I'm in the same camp. The football is absolutely dire and Heckie has absolutely no idea what his best team is or for that matter the formation he wants to play.

Its early days but its worrying days.

His post match comments should be a sackable offense. Having a go at the fans for having ambitions of out playing St Johnstone at home and then saying we are a point closer to where we want to be. Unbelievable.

[WhileTheChief..]

Vela was lucky if he touched the ball 3 times in the last 20 minutes.

Didn’t touch it much more than that over the 90.

He took a couple of passes in the second half, can’t remember him doing anything else.

He offers nothing and yet it’s Mallan who is taking the stick. Baffling.

[scooby]

I'm not renewing for next season if Hecky is still here, I enjoy watching my kids games more than this pish.

[DTS]

I’ve tried to be the biggest happy clapper so far this season but that today was a disgrace. 3 shots on target against St Johnstone?

Why change the front 3 and midfield that scored 5 goals last week?
Why play Scott Allan at right mid in front of an unfit David Gray?
Why think Vela is better than Allan in the 10?
Why insist on playing David Gray it’s just wasting a sub?

An absolute shambles that was one of the worst performances at ER for a while. He’s lost the fans and that 9/10 goes one way. I thought he was a good tactition and the change from 4-4-2 to 4-2-3-1 at the time made sense but don’t take your best player of the park to do so.

I think we should cut our loses and let him go, is there much justification for it on paper? Not really but we’ve been garbage on the park. Two tough away games followed by a derby unless he goes unbeaten in these winning one of the away games and the derby then he’ll be away.

Right now I can’t see him making the international break in September never mind October

[emerald green]

Liam Craig provided the pass for O'Halloran's goal, and St J's Second equaliser came from a corner from Danny Swanson... :rolleyes:

Are some of Hibs recent signings better than Craig and/or Swanson? There was no sign of it on the pitch at ER today.

[Hi Heid Yin]

Lennon lost to St Johnstone at home last season and the football was even worse.

Constantly referring to Lennon is irritating and totally irrelevant to what we are witnessing under Heckingbottom.

[GreenCastle]

I'm in the same camp. The football is absolutely dire and Heckie has absolutely no idea what his best team is or for that matter the formation he wants to play.

Its early days but its worrying days.

I’m usually very positive. I didn’t boo today but that was so bad to watch.

The only plan I see is playing is hit the strikers and work off that with round the corner flicks and hope it comes off. That worked once around the 60 min mark.

The non existent midfield is doing nothing to protect our dodgy back 5.

Gray and Stevenson aren’t anywhere near fully fit - chucked in at deep end.

Our midfield rarely tackle - just watch them. Remember SJM / Dylan and Bartley.

We have limited protection in front of the back 4 hence teams creating and scoring goals against us.

We don’t even look that fit - pressing is hard when fit but we can’t press when players aren’t fit and sit so deep. We also gave away so many fouls as not sharp enough to the ball.

He doesn’t know his best team and only positive I can see is he has got Flo playing well but everyone else is struggling.

Play players in their position..mallan and Allan..but this is a problem in itself as very similar and no protection behind and oddly we have brought another attacking midfielder ?!!

[GreenCastle]

Said this too.

Craig was no where near Hibs level several years ago s

Today he made a great pass for goal and was one of the best midfielders out there.

[Nicho87]

Hopefully the ones booing subs can go with him. Pathetic support
Won’t be many fans there then. All the signs are there. He should be building a team round our best player not playing him out of position

[07BigD]

Still should be afforded time but that second half in particular was an absolute shambles. Unless Allan needed to be replaced it was a shocking decision. Played out right and largely ineffective. Mallan should have made way for Horgan and Allan shifted through the middle. Bizarre.
Heckingbottom will live or die by these decisions but that was dire.

[BoyledEgg]

Constantly referring to Lennon is irritating and totally irrelevant to what we are witnessing under Heckingbottom.

There’s people on this thread referring to players that were at Hibs a long time before Lennon was at Hibs, so what’s the problem with comparing this seasons results to last seasons results? If you are irritated by it then ignore it.

[Dalkeith Boy]

I remember at work when the Company said all the right things yet things were miserable.....a colleague told me to believe what you see NOT what you are told....and what I see from these players right now is nothing ..absolutely nothing......Hecky certainly can speak but what I see is awful....we are in big big trouble ........already!!

Is Stockdale also to blame? He was a failure at Sunderland.

[Franck Stanton]

It would appear Hecky has/is losing the fans at the moment. Better be careful, if we have a couple of bad performances and results, then don't compete in the derby, he will be out the door as the fans will vote with their feet and stop attending.

Players need to take responsibility, they can do all the work they like in the training ground but the goals were conceded are amateur at best or individual errors, there’s not much he can do from the side to change that.

That's a load of pish, they didnt do a number on anyone. Our manager took him out the game by playing him wide.

2 SJ players shut him down whenever he got close the ball so they did do one on him, he should be AM but he wasn't, for some reason only hecky will know but I hope he's realised that now

Heckingbottom only lasted about 10 games at Leeds Utd I think I read somewhere. If Hibs play like they did today for another 10 games or so, he will have to go.

Nine new signings and we are a shambles. Some of those signings just don't look good enough to compete with the likes of St Johnstone, never mind those teams in the top six.

[WoreTheGreen]

3 league games in sad to say looking forward to the end of the season.PH might be a nice guy but looks completely out his depth were going backwards at a fast pace

[GreenCastle]

If you play well you get left out team.

1st game..Slivka came on and changed game.
2nd game.. Kamberi dropped for Ibrox
3rd game..Fraser Murray dropped out squad after doing well last week.

His comments before Huns game saying they hadn’t changed much.
High pressing (non existent) and high energy levels - we look slow and lethargic. No coincidence we play faster and score.

[GreenOnions]

The decision to take off our best player at the very moment you're changing the formation to one which is ideally suited to Scotty playing in his best position was a terrible one.

It actually really worries me that he thought that was even close to a wise decision. I am now much more concerned about the rest of the season as a direct result.

[Jim44]

Quandary. Do I really want to see Hibs in the search for another manager at this early stage of the season? No! Do I think PH is the man to see us challenge for 3rd or 4th! Not remotely. Do I think he will take us back to the championship? No. Should we settle for a boring survival in the middle of the table? May he. I just don’t see where we’re heading.

[Silky]

His post match comments are horrific.

He wasn't sure there was a rule in taking Scott Allan off

Why horrific. We are entitled to our opinion in terms of the sub, he is entitled to his. We can criticise the players and manager and express our frustration when he can't? Fans accept it when managers praise them for their support post match. When the shoe is on the other foot....

[Fergos]

There is little chance the board will act - unless there is a change in direction at the behest of new owners and act quickly.

The football is poor, results so far patchy. Lost count the amount of times PH has set us up poorly and had to change it, and changes like today won’t help his cause. Essentially moving our best player from his best position, who scored last week to accommodate Mallan.....well.

My biggest fear post the rangers game was how early in the season a complete collapse happened and it saw us for what we are, a team of no leaders, he hasn’t signed one leader amongst the new players.

Hard times.

Agree. We might do OK league position wise this season but that will only be due to the fact Aberdeen, Hearts and Killie are all poor. I fear for us against the Old Firm, we could end up on the receiving end of a few doings.

It's only fair we judge him on this season, as it's now pretty much his team, 3 games in, a win, loss and a draw, and through to the quarter finals of the cup, obviously the performances have not been brilliant, but he needs time, we've already had a load of injuries to contend with, so have not really played the same 11, and we have a bunch of new players to settle in as well.

Getting rid now would be crazy IMO, a new manager wouldn't really have anytime to get his own team in etc, doesn't make sense at all.

It's only fair we judge him on this season, as it's now pretty much his team, 3 games in, a win, loss and a draw, and through to the quarter finals of the cup, obviously the performances have not been brilliant, but he needs time, we've already had a load of injuries to contend with, so have not really played the same 11, and we have a bunch of new players to settle in as well.

Getting rid now would be crazy IMO, a new manager wouldn't really have anytime to get his own team in etc, doesn't make sense at all.

I also can't support sacking him this early, as said above, but he needs to find a big improvement; at the moment we look lost as a team. I want to see much better in the coming weeks.

[supermcginn]

I am as peed off as the rest however, I haven’t called for him to be sacked because, what next? We are right back in the cycle of rubbish. Anyone failing to see this needs to have a word.
The only thing rubbish is this manager, most of his signings, tactics, and style of play. Crowds will plummet under this clown.

We already are.

[S4uzee]

I just don’t see any improvement in any signings, the midfield is overrun most games and we don’t really create chances which just becomes very boring.

We’ve also signed these players on 3 year deals and if a new manager was to come in he’d be stuck with them. I just hope we’re not going through one of our ‘bad cycles’ and it goes back to what it was like 5 years ago with low crowds, little excitement and rolling over to the old firm/hearts at Easter road

[wearethehibs]

No reading every comment but I can't believe a few games into a season folk are calling for the manager to go.

Modern day football fans for you. Just want instant success. Don't understand it takes a bit of time to build a team.

Oh and let's not even mentioned we have only lost one competitive game this season.

Just calm down ffs

We are going through another of our bad cycles, that much is evident.

How’s that then?

Maybe we find another Stubbs or Lennon? There are plenty better managers out there.

[The 90+2]

Who’s to say another HC would get better out the new guys also? Same Hecky that ruined Flo out left last season and done similar to Allan today.

[Sammy7nil]

If we get biffed by Hearts he'll have had it.

Nine out of ten Derbies are a battle right now we don't have enough players up for the battle. The only ones I would trust are Lewis DG Hanlon Darren all the old stagers who are leaking goals. Yikes !

[bigswissstriker]

Get him out. Atrocious

[One Day In Time]

We’ve played only three league matches this season and already people are calling for the Heck to be dismissed. Unbelievable. A win today would have put us joint top [ before tomorrow’s matches]. The manager has brought in a number of new players and it will take time before they are fully up to speed. Let’s get real and let’s get behind the team.

Spot on. The levels of hysteria are unbelievable. We have a strong squad better than everyone apart from Celtic and Rangers and on a par with the Dons and them across the road.

Still confident we’ll finish in third

Finish 3rd. Behave yourself.

That’s not going to happen. Get real.

This manager needs removed and soon.

The football on offer is dull and boring.

On the new players needing time to gel point. At start of game today he had three players in the team that he signed , three. Last year hertz had 9 in their starting line up & were setting the Heather on fire until Naismith got injured and the wheels fell off. Did they need time to gel? He paid £300 k for Doidge. Why? We have enough bench warmers. Today he played 4 4 2, for first time this season, didn't work. Scott Allan is an a/ m NOT a right winger ffs. Becky needs to take a long hard look at his tactics, settle on a plan going forward and implement it because we are like a rudderless ship. As has been said already on the thread, lose the derby & the fans will turn on him completely.

[Jonnyboy]

""We are drawing at home and we will draw many more at home this season, without a doubt.""


1988 called, they want Alex Miller back.

I saw him before the game. He was on his phone - probably telling Hecky to make sure he had eleven men back at a corner

[GreenLake]

Missed this game which would seem fortunate from the posts on this thread. Hopefully things will change soon one way or another.

Three league games in with what 9 new signings to bed in? Really don’t get why folks expect things to click into shape so quickly. We’ve got a better more balanced squad.

Aberdeen are no great shakes, then across the road have strikers that don’t score and give 3/4 year deals to cripples,

Keep the faith and give the man a chance to gel the squad

On Doidge. That big huddy at Aberdeen started off really badly. The manager and fans stuck with him and he’s done alright

I'm really struggling to get my head around all the negativity. It seems to me that theres a bit of a bandwagon jumping thing going on. I'm not saying that I'm Heckingbottoms greatest fan,but I do think we have a strong squad and I really do believe that we'll get better. To compare these times to the bag of sweeties guy and Butcher is way off the mark In my opinion.

There wasn’t 9 new signings in the starting line up - maybe 4, but the squad is far from being more balanced as you feel in my view. The fact Heckingbottom is struggling to play Allan in his strongest and most effective position suggests to me the squad is anything but well balanced in our favour.

What do you see in the team and manager that gives you the impression that we’re going to improve?

[FitbaFolkKen]

We didn’t beat Hearts convincingly, and they were utter pap too.

Stirling Albion wasn’t a one off. There was the struggle against Alloa the humiliation at Ibrox and the extra time calamity against Morton before today. The team is weak. The HC is to blame for that. Hecky going on about the home crowd today - well what’s the excuse at Forthbank or Ibrox?

Our home crowd today took me back to when we were *****. My point was we beat Hearts outwith that March deadline.

Results have been ok we just need a battling win against a **** of an opponent to spark the fans.

Shoehorn him into the team?
He should be building the team round him not trying to find a place for him

He didn’t sign him, Flo is the guy to build round.

Seen a post on twitter few weeks back and it’s so true.

not one single game so far under hecky have I left thinking wow, what a great game, we are some team.

now for fans saying the win at Tynie, we were awful the first half.

i got that under Stubbs and certainly Lennon.

there is a massive spark missing currently and the manager is the extinguisher

[FitbaFolkKen]

Just realised I replied to four in a row, think there is a massive overreaction on here [emoji45]

Was saying to the old man at 2-1 as we were leaving on 90 minutes that it didn’t feel like a win.

The overall quality and shape of our team is so poor and to take our foot off the gas like that in the final 10 minutes or so is simply unforgivable. Our 2 goals were gift wrapped for us. We won’t score more easily this season.

Somethings got to change. Heckys a survivor not a thriver.

The Miller years, my father in law and I use to leave ER pretty pleased if we got a draw, unfortunately now we live in an era of instant gratification.

[tooley]

[QUOTE=MWHIBBIES;5902097]Hopefully the ones booing subs can go with him. Pathetic
I’m not one to boo players, but observing today I think your missing the point, without condoning the booing it was the choice of subs and not the players coming on that the booing was directed at.

[Northumberland]

What do you see in the team and manager that gives you the impression that we’re going to improve?

I like Heckingbottom, when we won at Tynecastle,not so long ago,he was the main man. I didnt believe that hype,especially,pretty much the same as I dont believe the negative hype now. I think hes a good guy, he cares and wants to be here and I firmly believe that we will come good,as it's a good squad,in a pretty poor league.

More games like today and St Mirren, even if we win, will drive thousands of fans away and I wouldn’t blame them.

2-2 with St Johnstone, 1 defeat in 9, i beg to differ.

I rarely post so expect this to go unnoticed. At what point in the last 50 years were we a shoe in for the points? I'm not suggesting that we've been brilliant recently but hounding the management at this point?

Only you can decide what you want to do, I can't help you in that respect, I've seen in 40 years of supporting, good Hibs teams, mediocre & down right bad. I tend to mainly watch my local junior club these days, hard working semi pros, enjoyable.
Currently watching MoTD, excellent.

[broondog]

I’ll be honest I was at the game today and at 2-1 one up I was thinking what are people moaning about when were winning? But ending up a draw with a hopeless St. Johnstone side just isn’t good enough. And having spoke to a couple of mates who were at the game and said it was that bad there would probably have been a couple of boo’s at full time even if we had won 2-1. We are in for a long hard season.

I was booing,not ashamed of it.that was a ****ing disgrace

Failures of the past don’t justify failures of the present. People are sick fed up of a club of our size and infrastructure not being able to put out a competent team and performance against wee outfits.

[sauzee6_2]

Today was my final straw...

I love Hibernian FC, however today was awful!

Paul Heckingbottom, if you read this, please just go!

The atmosphere was toxic, tactics were woeful and more of a concern was that the feel good feeling is well and truly gone!

The whole stadium knew St Johnstone would equalise today - that makes the managers incompetence more frustrating.

Personally, I want him out....before it’s too late!!

[660]

ok

[bawheid]

Thanks for that.

How about new year's day 1973 at swiney? Even before the game kicked off pundits were expecting us to win by at least 6 goals to go top of the league.

Didn’t enjoy it today, but will never give up. Still looking forward to Fir Park next week and hopefully a more positive outcome. Poor today, but endured far worse over the years..
