I'm 47 and have followed Hibs through good and bad. But even although I've suffered 2 relegations and way too many defeats in big matches which have been hard to take, I have never have I felt so low as I do today.
Where do we go from here?

Where do we go from here? A question for Alan Stubbs and the hierarchy at Easter Road to answer. Over to you lot.

The last season in the first we were Bethan 1-2 with Stranraer in the first game of the season .
it was a wake up call and the rest is history.

Bad result today and shows we are in need of quality, if we don't get the finger out we will be mid table,lowest low so far for me too

I remember it well. The difference is we had a team that bounced back and ended up with real quality. Not seeing it in this Hibs team. The fall from challenging for Europe to where we are now is just incredible. Complete free fall. The next 2 days are vital not just for this season but for the future of our team

Where do we go? Useless, spineless players. Clueless manager. Corporate suits running the club. Uninterested owner = relegation.

Probably can't get much worse. Probably. I reckon we'll be fine in a months time.

Taking into circumstances, mainly Hearts comparisons and the way Hibs have gone about this season, today is one of the ten lowest I've experienced. And by god there's been some competition.
There's a lot to be said for the fact that this is all forgotten as long as we've improved enough to be in the play offs AND winning it is realistic. That might still be the case but Hibs need to be really bloody careful in how they progress from here. Results this season have been worst-case scenario stuff.

Just back - two words ****ing gash!! Why was Booth left out and Robertson who drove us on in the last 15 against Dumbarton - to accomodate CRAIG deary deary me. We could go down - we dont have the appetite I'm afraid

However:
Then there was no Rangers or Hearts in the same league
Then we had money to spend
Then there was no transfer window about to close
Then we didn't have an ingrained 4 year old losing mentality
Do I need to continue?

As a Hibs fan you expect some bad days. But the frequency of these bad days is just too much lately. Something needs to change and change fast. 1 win and 3 losses in our opening 4 games in this league is absolutely not good enough.

The team that got relegated was the worst in the clubs history. Too many of the same players are their and defeats like todays are the result.
I've felt lower as a fan as age has mellowed by madness for all things Hibs. All those who slagged off those of us who booed at the end of the Falkirk game must be feeling a bit stupid though.

This must be one of the lowest points in a long long time and would push the patience of even the most loyal Hibby - yes we are hearing good things out of ER but it really matters only on the pitch and yes perhaps there is a plan for a two year promotion but if you were wondering what do on a Sat afternoon not sure going to ER would be my number one thought. I understand we need to give AS and co time but it is not easy being the easy joke of Scottish football.

We didnt empty enough of the pish and not enough new players in. Stubbs signings all look good i think but still playing guys like Craig and Stevenson etc. Why after last season would anyone want to see them playing for hibs?

We were never going to win the League....Rangers will, unless admin bites again....... We will still achieve a play off place..... Am I happy with that?.... No, but we have no divine right to stroll to victory because we are Hibs... We are a scalp now and until we have players with the mentality Hearts do we will continue to flounder....but, we will still come good in the end... GGTTH!

Yes, of course you are right. 1st one seems do long ago. 2nd time i remember McLeish almost keeping us up and with 20 mins to go against Dundee United, we were safe for about 5 mins. But the free fall in the last year has been incredible to the point that if we lose to Cowdenbeath next week we will be bottom. Let's hope for some good signings in the next few days and the return of a feel good factor

Good point above too about us being seen as a 'scalp'. Alex mcleish realised that last time round and brought in people with the character to deal with that. This time round we simply don't have the desire to go to modest little grounds and fight like ****.
So, yep, feeling pretty low with the hibs right now

Trying to remain positive but can't believe this played 4, 3 points 8th in the league not kept a clean sheet in any game more minuses for me at the moment than positives, sick of hearing it can only get better :-(

If we get beat from Cowdenbeath, I fear there will be a riot at Easter Road.

We didn't go nearly far enough with the clear out, and it's come back to haunt us now. I feel for Stubbs, he's got a massive job on his hands but he needs to make some tough calls, and one of those calls is to ditch his captain, and lose Heffernan.
We need players to influence and dictate games, not to be anonymous and ineffective.
If he's telling players that their places are up for grabs if they don't perform then he has to follow up on that threat.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

The clear out left us with the majority of the team that got relegated. It was the peripherals that left.
They're broken and it looks like they can't be fixed.
