Nah, bring on European football and a cup semi final under Jack Ross.
I dont think many people will come the end of the season.Quote:

Figured we were past giving in-post Hibs managers derogatory nicknames. Ah, well.
Behave.Quote:

FWIW you’ll find me criticising him elsewhere on this forum as I’m not a huge fan. The idea of sacking him now is ridiculous though.
It was always going to end in one way after the Hearts defeat imoQuote:

I totally get the arguments against him and I don’t think he’ll recover from the semi final defeat, nowhere near the stage of sacking him though.
I don't care what everyone else thinks. I really like your patter. You seem very witty and insightful.Quote:

I think it's a fair comment though that football fans are fickle across the board worldwide. But you're comment is also correct.Quote:

Jack Ross is tactically inept . Been proven .
I think it's all his natural hair colour?Quote:

We talk about progress and 4th does seem progress but tell me a run of 6 games where we have played well? Do you enjoy his brand of football? What is his actual brand of football?Quote:

The opposite can be said for us. We look like a bunch of strangers with no plan. Seen it coming a mile off too.
Defence also a shambles. The players need a rocket big time.
With a winnable League Cup situation ahead, Jack Ross record in big games, especially the Derby Semi Final and the home record doesn't fill me with confidence.
I dont think he will be sacked soon but I do think that this is the beginning of the end. I said after the RC game that we would not bounce back from that slump and its going to be a long three months. I hope we can all see now that we will be dragged into a mid table fight for top six .. at best. Not for the first time over many years Hibs inexplicably stop doing what they did to get themselves in a good league position for example cutting back perfectly for mids making late runs into the box to score. JR has no clue how to combat any side at ER as our poor home performances demonstrate. New faces r needed but a manager has to know how to utilise them.Quote:

I agree with you but I’m also a realist so i know he’s not going anywhere while we’re 4th in the league. Really isn’t any point wanting him sacked now as it’s never happening. We could lose our next 10 games and he’d still be relatively safe.Quote:

That's the worrying part.
Losing the next ten making thirteen losses in a row would definitely see him out the door but losing next ten is not on the cards.Quote:

Yes were 4th, but the rest of the league is poorer than usual and we played poor in many of the games we won.

I actually think it may be time for him to go. Can't lose like Wednesday, react like today and expect to keep job. 4 home games and we've won 1.
Hibs have also been negatively impacted by the pandemic this year.Quote:

At least show some sort of enthusiasm FFS
I’m not a fan of Jack Ross but today and the Ross County games aren’t reason enough to sack him at the moment. If this form continues then he might be in trouble, especially if RG is the impatient type.
Ross is incapable of turning a game, his half time team talks have zero effect, if anything Hibs come out even worse in 2nd half of games, failure to win the league cup (now unlikely) and he can go for me.
Terrible new manage required , lost against hearts now this guff, home form is a disgrace carbon copy of neilson get rid
Week*. It's been one week.Quote:

Jack Ross is an incredibly boring manager. We lack creativity on the pitch and in the dugout.
Barnes= keek
Hanlon = finished
Porto = too cocky
Lewis = finished cannae pass forward
Gogic = keek
Mallan = hot n cold
Boyle = see mallan
Doidge = 2nd touch a tackle
I can’t see what else you see jack
We’re now playing a wounded sellik next
Not looking forward to it with that mob
Did you also watch the St Mirren, Dundee Utd and other non OF games at ER. We are not a good team to watch at home. Ive maybe enjoyed two or three results at home but not sure how many performances I can say I have enjoyed. Its been pretty poor fair. Even ignoring that I dont see how anyone can be confident for the future even just taking the last two ir three games into consideration.Quote:

Hearts at home, Hearts in the cup, Ross County and now Livingston. May be others that I’ve managed to wipe from my memory but when you’ve only been in charge for about 50 games that’s some amount of shockers. These sort of results and performances should be 1 or 2 in that period. Not 4 or 5.
Stephen Robinson
Not wanting him out yet but hes starting to get on my nerves. The semi is a must win. No excuses. Our home form is pathetic. Paying over £400 for this complete garbage.
My stream is perfectly clear sadly.Quote:

Got to fear though season ticket sales for next year will drop dramatically
Basically if we come up against a team that’s fired up and motivated theyll beat us.Quote:

No denying our past two games have been horrendous. But I’ll wait a bit longer before pissing myself.
And that is the big problemQuote:

We're definitely not favourites ahead of Livi right now. No interest in what bookies say. Right now, Livi are better than us.Quote:
