There is clearly something not quite right at ER, other teams skilled or not simply roll up their sleeves and get stuck in.
SHUT DOWN EAST MAINS FOR 6 WEEKS AND LET'S GET BACK TO BASIC HARD TRAINING AND GRAFT WITHOUT THE BUBBLE BATHS.
Rant over.
Why is it we always blame a manager or blame the board?
I'd be blaming these players who are utterly ***** at what they do and week after week buckle under any kind of pressure.
and he was left there far too long by those running the club.Quote:

The board, the managers and the players can all hold their head in shame.Quote:

Cheers, CC. What a mess.
Forget tactics, formations and what nots. The current crop of players simply aren't up to it.
We're actually 4-5 players short of being competent, never mind anything else.
I totally agree mate, they need shifting IMO, take the Fulham money for Hanlon soon PetrieQuote:

Fenlon I do think will improve us - but the core at Hibs is still rotten - players / board
Looks like 2nd bottom is the best we will be this season unless real quality is brought in - I also believe relegation threat is more serious than last season when there were a few teams closer - this season it's between us and the pars :rolleyes:
As the fat man with the moustache said in August " CC Is the man " the problem was bad then and it might have helped if teflon Don had shut his face and let CC move but oh no he knows a good manager when he sees one ! . Petrie should be sacked for overseeing this debacle .

Its not wee occational glimpses of magic we need, its a team of players that have the strength and desire to fight for everything on the field, to show an infinite amount of passion, to play as a team and look to destroy any opposition they're up against, regardless of who it is.
There's your answer. Easy to say in hindsight but he should have been emptied in the summer.Quote:

Brilliant strategy.Quote:

Without investment in this Hibs team this team will get relegated. If not this year maybe next. We simply are at rock bottom player wise and if there simply is no money left in the pot we are ****ed.Quote:

How thick did anybody have to be to carry on imagining that Calderwood had the makings of a successful manager?Quote:

Pat Fenlon suggesting on BBC that the squad may not be fit enough!!!
Most people watching Hibs for the last 4 seasons could have telt him that. Nae point in a £5 Million training centre if you're going tae fill it with humpty coaches and poor journeymen.Quote:

i seriously cant see us winning another game, ive been optimistic in the past, i thought we were a little better in the past few games ans wondered how we would cope if we could score first......well that was it whatever confidence we had must have evaporated now.....confidence is a two way thing other teams now look on us as a soft touch, easily beaten, so there confidence levels are up before the game starts and we dont have anyone on the pitch capable of turning that round.....yet....depending on who PF brings in january that is.....hope to christ theyr all in at east mains tomorrow they dont deserve a day off.
It's words like "May" or "Maybe" that worry me most.Quote:

Bin the ****in lot, none are any good.
CHEER UP FFS. ITS CHRISTMAS:dizzy :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
I have the answer :agree: Don't pay the players and they might leave because it seems to work down Haymarket way.
We are rank rotten and anyone thinking different is only kidding themselves.
Only hope we have is if Dunfermline keep loosing because nothing else is going to save us.
We need 5-6 players in the transfer window because we are that Bad.
You are right. The writing was on the wall months ago. The last five results of last season cost the club a fortune and only Petrie can explain why he turned down money for Calderwood in the summer. That decision could go down as one of the biggest blunders in the clubs history.Quote:
