    Hibs v St Johnstone post match thread

    I'll start.

    I was more than positive about the manager and his signings prior to the start of the season, but that was bizarre. Playing Allan wide then subbing him instead of moving him, and we have an entire plethora of midfielders that refuse to tackle.

    No one would have contested a St Johnstone win today.

    Absolutely woeful. St Johnstone had 3 separate attacks after the 4 minute board went up. Where were the Hibs players fighting for the ball?

    How many more games is it going to take for the defenders of this clown to see the glaringly obvious that Hecky makes it up as he goes along and has no clue. We narrowly beat a few minor teams, played 2 of the worst teams in the League at home and capitulated against the Huns. 4points and -4 goal difference.

    The football is eye watering, there’s no plan and no vision. If anyone thinks this is acceptable they are deluded!

    Don't waste time & get Heckingbottam out now. I know that realistically is not going to happen but I can't see this working under him

    I understand the whole give a manager time but I honestly don't believe his style of play will ever change and it's so negative

    That was awful today and the managers decisions were equally as bad during the game

    We are going backwards

    Games like these happen but the amount of booing for me is a sign he hasn’t got much time to sort this. A bad performance in the derby and he won’t win the fans over.

    Can’t see us picking up any points in the next month. Can see everyone taking points off us.

    I have to agree but dont think things are going to change anytime soon, something just not right at Easter Road just now, there is no quick fix.

    An interesting stat that I’ve yet to verify is that we’ve picked up 10 points from our last 30 in the league.

    that would be with 6/10 games against 'top 6' sides

    Seeing as we shouldnt have even made it to top 6 last year, I can disregard it

    How many from the last 8 matches, 24 available points? 4!

    I sometimes wonder if Heckingbottom doesn’t know what to do with Allan and Mallan!

    He didn’t sign Allan, but knows he is one of, if not the best player in our squad so cant leave him out, and he seems to have a bit of loyalty towards Mallan.

    Allan hasn’t merited being dropped yet this season and I think Mallan has been pretty anonymous.

    This conundrum will only be made worse with our new signing and how to crowbar him into the first team.

    Mallan needs some bench time to reignite some passion imho.

    Until this issue is sorted, I think we are in for a tough time!

    We’ve got one of the best midfielders in the country - he has to play Scott Allan in the middle and build the side round him. Our squad isn’t rich enough with quality not to do so.

    Worrying thing is they seem to be taking their eyes off the ball regarding off field related things too.

    It’s so obvious that Allan needs to play in the middle. He wandered in once today and setup the goal. Build the team around him

    That seems to be the main bug bear amongst the punters, he just seems incapable of seeing it though.

    I listened on Hibs TV audio and with a couple of minutes of extra time left , Stevenson put a throw in to Kamberi's chest at so much pace he had no chance of controlling it. Simple things like that lead to chances and probably similar to how we lost the corner that they scored from

    Heckingbottom is not a hibs type manager. Never brave enough.

    Said at the time, when he subbed the best player at our club, Hibs better win this game now for Heckingbottom's sake. P45 stuff from the manager.

    By subbing SA, he's effectively saying, he cannot find a place for SA in our midfield. WTF ?

    Hecky is going to get lots of stick for taking allan off today. I have no issue with that as he was very poor and offering little defensive cover although i have no idea why he was playing on the right in the first place.

    Also, once he moved us into a 4231, why he moved vela, our only midfielder with any defensive qualities, up behind the striker and had slivka and mallan sitting deep is anyones guess. The little control we had of the game was lost at that point. Absolutely bizarre.

    He has shot himself in the foot big time with those decisions and given ammunition to a support who were already starting to turn on him. Rightly or wrongly, i cant see him lasting based on the atmosphere today.

    Negative approach comes from Heckingbottom. Players first though is to go back the way.

    We can’t defend simple balls in to the box though.

    Senior players not leading. Paul Hanlon in particular. Rubbish.

    He's so negative. The Leeds fans were right.

    That'll be the 30% win ratio he had at Barnsley and Leeds, talks a good game but clueless.
