That was me, and at the time i did hate them although i've never wanted Monty out. There's no crisis in my opinion, maybe boredom or apathy have crept in, but crisis i dont think so.

Before Mourinho was sacked there was speculation ( only paper talk ) that Newcastle had held talks with him about replacing Eddie Howie . Probably all s**** though is Eddie Howie another manager under pressure depending on next few results? .
Haha, I only turned against LJ near the end when he got booted, I was neither for or against him during his time, his BS was the only real thing that annoyed me about him, I wanted him gone after the cup defeat against Hearts and the 0-3 defeat against them earlier didn't help. Looking back on last season reminded me how streaky his time was, 4 losses and then 4-5 wins and repeat.
Unlike you who's been against Montgomery since day one and have let everyone know in almost every thread you post on.
No. We could have better quality in depth but that's about it. That Monty hasn't got as much out of Youan as Lee did is a worry. That a proven talisman like Boyle is ineffective is a worry. That Vente can't buy a goal is a worry.
If for Monty's system to work means the existing talent fails then I'd start questioning the system.
The Youan thing I think has been overplayed. He’s scored six since Monty came in the door having scored nine in the whole of last season. He’ll improve on that this season and continue to go from the sublime to the ridiculous from minute to minute. Playing Boyle up front week in, week out I totally disagree with. That’s a mistake.
It’s not just lack of quality in depth, it’s just a total lack of quality in certain positions, namely centre half, and that is what is costing us more than anything.
There are things Montgomery could and should be doing differently but there are things that are absolutely on the players. He can’t header the ball away in the last minute of the derby for Rocky or score the penalty for Boyle and that’s just a couple of examples of big errors players have made that have cost us that are absolutely nothing to do with anything tactical.
Nonsense. You’ve previously admitted you sussed LJ out early on and wanted him out.
That’s fine but then don’t go over dramatic on people who think that way about the current manager. Accusing people of not being Hibs fans and ignoring people left, right and centre is pathetic behaviour just because this time they have a different view from you.
I’ve quite enjoyed reading some of the older threads :greengrin
So far there’s been numerous folk who can’t even fathom talk of managers being sacked so early who were asking for previous managers to be sacked even earlier, folk who are currently calling fans entitled for daring to question whether Montgomery is under pressure who wanted previous managers out after 7 games (W3, D2, L2) and folk who are insistent that our formation and system under NM doesn’t actually matter who were very insistent that Maloneys formation and system was the problem :greengrin
Yup. Shows how poorly we've been run on the football side of things since the Gordons took over that fans are having often heated debates over all you've mentioned above. All started with the sacking of Jack Ross after failing to back him that summer. Sad and frustrating.
I get that this is more speculation but say there was little progress by NM come the summer and Ian Murray had got Raith promoted either as champions or the play offs. Do we think he’d be in with a shout of getting the Hibs job.
Listened to the open goal interview with IM and he seems grounded, not lost in any buzzwords etc, obviously gets the club. Would be interesting
