In a way I get what the OP is saying because I genuinely don’t think Hearts were good and whilst 2-0 up it was gifted to them without working for it.
Youan had a couple of chances where he should have shot and a couple where he set someone up well and then Magennis had the chance at the end
Don’t think it was a 3-0 game but unfortunately that’s how things are going for us.
Is it being unlucky? If it happened once or twice.
This is consistent, consistently poor and awful defending.

We can’t keep clinging to such delusions I’m afraid. We have a slow, aged leaky defense, forwards who cannot score and very little leadership, drive and creativity in the middle of the park.
No matter how much we huff and puff and come out with the what if’s, we’ve still lost 9 or our last 11, and have only won twice against 11 men.
Such a side will always struggle, even in a league of very poor sides. Teams like Hearts now know they just need to put in an appearance and we’ll be the architects of our own demise.
In such a league of average teams, I’d agree that a Scottish Cup win over a poor and quite jittery Hearts team is far from out of the question. But that would only obscure the fact that we will probably continue to lose more than we will win.

Final third crap play from Hibs.

I actually sense that the reason the OP is feeling a bit more positive than the rest of us is that he might one of the section of fans who are actually quite relieved it was just a 3-0 defeat and not 6 or 7 and looking on that as some kind of reason to be cheerful.
Loads would have feared a real tanking but may not be keen to admit that. It’s a mentality that needs to change ASAP. I put our second half “better” showing down to a lot of that. After the early concession most of the team looked like they didn’t want to be out there.
We were beat before we stepped out on the pitch today.

Aye, keep calm and accept this absolute drivel.
We have no cutting edge, and a manager who’s smooth talking is wearing very thin.
Same with Big Ron, full of crap. Really difficult to see him making a success of running our football club. He’s a speculator, with little in way of accumulation in regards to Hibs.
The fans won’t put up with this for much longer. More green empty seats on the way.

Heard Johnson's interview in the car on the way home. He's not blameless, but he didn't pull any punches, among his comments were he's "fed up with the mediocrity up front".
The club needs to bite the bullet and sign some first-picks in the next week to ten days, oh and Gprdpn's laddie needs his transfer pocket money stopped and to be nowhere near the process of recruiting these players.

I see his point that the goals were lucky; first was a gift, second was offside, third was a rare Marshall misjudgement. Youan squanders a one on one, the double saves from Magennis….we were clearly second best but frustrating mistakes in both penalty boxes were the actual difference.

They weren't any better than us in general play just more clinical and goals change games. It's not luck though - Will Fish is our player and what they are up against, he and therefore, we weren't good enough. Marshall is our keeper, it was his inability to come off his line (never covered himself in glory for the 1st either)

Yeah, being clinical in both boxes.
The tone was set early when Youan was put in at the side of the box from a quick free kick in 1st minute. A right foot shot is on and what we played for but he proceeded to play it back out the box. The later misses aswell are our players inabilities to finish, not their good defence or bad luck

I'm just so tired of it. I saw that team and immediately knew we would struggle.
Never felt as resigned to defeat, going to a game, as I did yesterday.
Said before the game we’d likely start quite brightly (we did) but we’d probably lose a stupid goal as soon as they went up the park (we did). It was all so entirely predictable and I don’t think I’ve ever felt so disillusioned with us.

Since the natural order derby, our record against them reads:
W2 D5 L8
We've not won at home since the natural order derby either.
As I said, that's not bad luck, it's because we're absolute *****.
Thoroughly depressing reading so many trying to convince themselves otherwise.

.....Cancel their direct debit. Send the board a message.
The message would be - make sure we get a team put out on the park that has more spine than me who’s cancelling my Season Ticket.

The club has absolutely no feel of a community football club anymore. It’s being run completely as a business, everything is driven towards high turnover etc and the football side of the business, which is all the fans care about, has been completely neglected. I honestly think Ron couldn’t give two hoots about the fans thoughts as long as he is watching turnover/profit go up.
If Ron Gordon wants to do that then crack on. Just don’t be surprised when your ‘customers’ (because that’s how we’re being treated now) stop giving you that loyalty that a football club gets you and starts treating you like they would any other corporate entity who weren’t giving them value for money and walk away.

If it's any comfort I just read Lawrie Reilly's excellent autobiography in which he acknowledges that even when we were winning the league and riding high in Britain and the world our bogey team was Hearts. He and his mates never quite managed to offload that monkey!

They weren't any better than us in general play just more clinical and goals change games. It's not luck though - Will Fish is our player and what they are up against, he and therefore, we weren't good enough. Marshall is our keeper, it was his inability to come off his line (never covered himself in glory for the 1st either)
Hearts coasted the game.lets not be dillusional. We looked better 2nd half because they took their foot off the pedal. Snodgrass could have had a pipe and slippers and newell/canpbell would still be chasing his shadow

Back around the time of the Natural Order game, we were on a nice wee run against Hearts, winning more than we lost.
They're miles ahead of us now. Not just based on last night, but they seem to have a plan and their recruitment has been much improved since they brought in their DoF.

I guess one thing is Hearts managed to turn it around quickly from quite a bad place. The hope is that we can do the same over the next year to 18 months

Yeah, being clinical in both boxes.
The tone was set early when Youan was put in at the side of the box from a quick free kick in 1st minute. A right foot shot is on and what we played for but he proceeded to play it back out the box. The later misses aswell are our players inabilities to finish, not their good defence or bad luck
Agreed. Second half Youan showed his ability on the ball a lot more, and I do like him as a player, but it’s getting to the stage now in his Hibs career where I’d just give him a gps tracker attached to his ankle and if he moves away from a 5m wide 30 m strip of grass wide on the left I’d send a high voltage shock straight to his nads. The boys a winger.

We need the sheep to catch them for 3rd desperately, or they will disappear into the distance financially.

They did it by signing established players that were suited to the Scottish game. After our farcical summer signing spree there is not one player other than Boyle on our books that would make Hearts first team.

I'm not a fan of LJ and not sure what he is trying to do, but the players we have are weak and give up too easily. Personally I would clear out the majority of the first team squad and replace with a few much more expensive signings and promote from our younger squad.
Recruitment comes up time and time again, I would head hunt for a John Park type and start getting in a few hungry players.
Most of the players we have are at their peak with Hibs as far as their careers go and they are cruising, while collecting good money. There is no hunger to suceed either as a club or individually.

But point taken, 2's not great and he's away anyway.
