Our form is well worthy of discussion. It is rotten and needs addressed. The upcoming fixtures aren’t the easiest and our performances recently haven’t given any sort of confidence that we’ll go and win them.

Aw come on, it's the constant desperation from the same people, including yourself, to post something negative that people are totally sick of.

[Pretty Boy]

There will be a lot of sarcastic replies but it's a point worthy of discussion.

I've just said elsewhere that I didn't realise quite how much Livingston had closed the gap on us, I still had it in my head we were double figures clear of 5th.

I'm not angry after tonight. I expected a defeat and that's what happened. It's not accepting mediocrity or whatever, it's just a realisation that our season won't be defined by games against Rangers. We need to get something from Dundee Utd though. We should have battered them at ER and didn't and St Mirren will be right up for it after their result tonight. They'll still have top 6 aspirations.

Our current form is a real concern and I'd take 2 scrappy wins to get is heading back in the right direction.

Deserved, given the context.

The same boring people seem absolutely desperate to post negativity. The exact same posters that did exactly the same throughout the game.


Surely you can see that?

[calumhibee1]

Aw come on, it's the constant desperation from the same people, including yourself, to post something negative that people are totally sick of.

We’ve just added yet another game without a win to our run of form. We’ve watched the team behind us get closer again after they’ve won tonight.

Form is constantly discussed in football. Our form is more than worthy of discussion. If we don’t want the topic of our form to be a negative discussion then we need to start winning games and turn it into a positive discussion.

[Dazzjw1875]

My biggest worry is that we don't stop this loosing run for a couple of games. Say Livi pass us how will that add to the fact the morale is already low with the players?

[Hibees1973]

I didn't really notice who the OP was but I considered posting something similar myself albeit I might have waited a bit longer as emotions are always running high after a game.

I stand by the assertion our current form and the diminishing gap to 5th are well worthy of discussion.

[calumhibee1]

Hang on,

The OP posts a thread about Hibs form on a Hibs forum, with stats and a list of our upcoming games. That seems perfectly logical and reasoned.

They’re then met with abuse about how desperate they were to post that...

I’m not quite sure you’ve got the right end of the stick when it comes to logical and reasoned on this thread.

We could of course just ignore it and pretend it’s not happening.. that would be much more logical :confused:

[Vault Boy]

Our form is a definite concern just now. We've put ourselves in a decent position this season, but we need to see a turnaround in the current trajectory if we're to stay in that position.

If I'm looking at the positives, players like Cadden, Allan, Irvine, and Magennis are all coming up to speed, and they'll improve us. A couple more coming in certainly wouldn't hurt either.

Our strikers aren't firing just now, but we know that they're both capable of scoring at this level, so it's about finding a way to unlock that threat again. You can't help but feel this team needs a big injection of confidence, hopefully we see that come soon.

[Heisenberg]

There’s not much wrong with the thread. It’s negativity but it’s only that way because unfortunately our results and performances have been ***** since Christmas, the initial post is all factual.

You can turn that argument on it’s head and say it’s the same boring people who’re always there jumping in trying to turn every negative post into a positive.

All the OP’s done is stated a fact. Our form is poor, if it continues we’ll drop to 5th. Nothing but facts.

[CathroMustStay]

Awful form recently, no question.

Complaining about factual statistics is quite literally Trumpian.

It's been a dire run with a few truly dire performances in there which I don't need to point out to anyone who's been paying attention. Tonight we looked better and hopefully the new signings and returns from injury are going to make the difference and we push on. It's been a weird period where we've been bossed by the "wee" teams while giving a good account against the OF even if we only won a point out of 9 against them.

The next two away will be telling as playing away seemed to suit our style in the first half of the season - hopefully we've not lost that knack!

There were positives tonight but we have to take them into Saturday and get 3 points. No excuses..

Absolutely nothing wrong with that OP, by the way. A set of statistics well worth discussion, nothing in the post that can be deemed inflammatory.

It's a concern when the game is turned at halftime, we went in as the best team and came out and lost control to the extent we could have been 3 down if Morelos had his shooting boots on.
Of course we had the weak/cheat referee to blame that he should have been off but what happens that we come out and are weaker (almost literally). After Saturday he should have been through them at halftime to go out at 100 mile an hour to keep the upper hand, instead it was Rangers.
Quite possibly Jack Ross might be a better manager when the crowds are back, surely we'd have been vocal and lifted them starting the 2nd half? He has to get a grip of this, his cool calm approach is going to get him the sack.

Think Kevin Nisbet is needing rested, his form has dropped like a stone since last semifinal and we know obviously why that is, playing through it hasn't worked unfortunately

Nothing we can do about it now and I don’t think tonight was a game that anyone would have expected to go any other way really.

More worthwhile worrying about after the next couple of games than tonight.

Fair point.

I don’t think the OP deserves the stick he’s got but you make a good point about playing the old firm 3 times in that period.

I don’t think Dundee United getting hammered tonight was good for us, they’ll be desperate to show a reaction to that on Saturday. I’m not convinced we’ll be as desperate for the win as they will be.

Big test for Hibs coming up in the coming weeks.

Every thread we now have the usual suspects on to point out the other usual suspects while usual suspects like me point out these observations.

Aw come on, it's the constant desperation from the same people, including yourself, to post something negative that people are totally sick of.

Is the original post negative? If it is, surely it is so merely by the fact our form is poor? It’s not slating team or anything...

If people are sick of it why come into the thread? Why bother replying without actually debating the content of the post.

People keep saying teams doing ok and give it time but then reply with this type of stuff when someone points out our current form. I don’t understand it. Negative people get stick for their supposed loose grasp on reality and what’s actually happened in the match. Surely you and the others jumping onto the OP are skipping over the reality of our form and deciding to focus on profiling users of the forum in order to take seemingly co-ordinated sarcastic digs?

If people are getting a reputation for posting negative comments then I think people should also get a reputation for chasing down these people almost as if is a hobby. Close and decide not to read the thread...

Bet people are totally sick of getting it tight on a fans forum, just saying.

Next 2-3 games will be massive. Need to turn form. Aberdeen are used to grinding out results when it counts so I think we’ll be battling it for 4th. We need to try to create a gap before the split. Hopefully in doing so pulling us closer or above Aberdeen.

No mistake, on current form, we need to be looking at Livi.

[Stuart93]

If we end up finishing lower than 4th this season surely that wouldn’t see JR surviving

Makes you realise what a job McInnes has done to consistently get 3rd season after season with maybe a fluke 4th thrown in if they're unlucky

[Magpie]

Livi and Aberdeen play each other twice in the next week. If we can win our two games in that time then we are gaining on at least one of them.

What would be the most ideal result for us when they face each other?

Two draws.

[Carheenlea]

The three goals for is a pretty depressing return in seven games. The solid build of points earlier in season has given us a buffer to absorb some indifferent form, but we can’t afford to let this dip turn into a slump. Still in touch with those round about us so plenty to play for.

[Magpie]

Two draws.

Two draws for them and two wins for us would see us going into the Aberdeen game a point ahead of them. Fingers crossed.

[THESHIP]

Pretty sure they said on sky that we haven’t won back to back games at home in the league since 2018. Pretty grim reading.

Probably a positive that our next two games are away from home.

Our home form is a by product of our style of play imo.

Percentage football that teams usually play to try and turn a game into a bit of a lottery, especially against better teams than them or away from home.

We play it near enough every week though and as such we basically just give away home advantage and turn the game into a lottery ourselves scrapping for second balls and seeing who comes out on top. We started off the season on a winning run but our luck with that style has now ran out.

[Kaff]

I haven't been impressed with the Arabs whenever I've seen them this season and they seem to sit in to soak ip pressure.
Sure we deserved to hammer them last time but we didn't take the chances and it kind of started this poor run with their late equaliser but that is the danger where these teams sit deep to keep it within one goal and come out all guns blazing last 5 or 10 mins.
From the confidence point of view of both teams it will be important we take the lead and probably add a 2nd quickly, if they score first it will be brutal with our slow play lacking confidence trying to break them down with 10 man defence.
For me, drop Kevin Nisbet to bench and start Scott Allan with Doidge up front and two wingers, Nizzy can come on early if needed but having Scott and his quality even if only for 45 early on could be diffence getting early breakthrough.
I'll be disappointed with a single point as we need to start beating these poorer teams now

[Tyler Durden]

Our form has been rubbish but there’s 3 games vs the OF in there. If you take out Livi then our form is similar in that period to the rest of the league (obvs minus the OF).

With Livi and Aberdeen playing each other we’ve got a great chance of going into the Aberdeen game knowing that a win will put us 3rd. With only 10 games remaining after that.

Definitely an optimistic spin on things but the reality is we have a great chance to finish 3rd if we can regain our form. With nearly a full squad to pick from, its not impossible.
