Wonder if they headed up

Seemingly they do it all the time head to the first team that scores location, brilliant idea 😂

I honestly think Heckingbottom's tactics were very negative and stifled the players, it was shown on a good few occasions when they went ahead in a game they seemed to close ranks and drop deep to hold onto the lead instead of just going for it by attacking more. May has realised this and allowed the players the freedom to express themselves with a more fluid attacking formation and style, maybe there isn't too man bad players in the squad and they just needed the freedom to play the game properly, Heckingbottom's career stats are littered with draws and losses with not enough wins, he's a negative manager.

Absolutely. The Celtic cup game last year clearly demonstrated the PH mindset. We’re well shot of him.

The initial touch to get a wee bit more space was class.

The finish under pressure was really good.

Levein had the same mindset of negativity as PH. Get in front then drop deeper and sit in to defend it. These managers rarely have successful managerial careers. They're far too rigid and set in their ways.

I missed the Jeff Stelling comment. Im assuming the guys will head up for next home game? Would be nice if something could be arranged for them.

The gig normally sees you ready to depart as soon as the goal is scored.

Ok, thanks for clarifying.

They’re all sitting about in Beverley (lovely wee place outside Hull) at 3pm in the afternoon and they head right away to the home of the team that scores the first goal? So they’d get to Edinburgh at half 8 that night if they’re ready with a motor running. Not sure how they’d manage if it was Dingwall. Or Plymouth. Genuinely interested.

Agree with the many posts saying we played very well and naming a few players in particular, Kamberi, Newell etc. I think they all played well and what we seen today was a group of players applying themselves properly, good movement on the ball and off the ball, good sensible passing and more.......

Sorry Paul but this was a performance that they never gave you and it seemed to me today and to others around us that these players must have played the way they did in the last 6-8 weeks in a way that could only result in you losing your job!!

I get the selection was good from EM, formation likewise but the input from the players was so much more than anything previously, it is very true that a manager is only as good as what his players give him.

Great to watch a Hibs team going for it at every opportunity today and just maybe, we might have a decent season after all.

If any of you players are reading the forum well done let’s have more of this.

Unfortunately PH and RS never got this from the players this season at all and they must be wondering why!!

Are you actually blaming the players for Hecky being sacked?

Do you honestly believe that his influence, team selection and tactics, played no part in the results?

I doubt he's trolling, there have been a few "told you so" posts over the last week from posters bragging about how they knew in pre-season that his signings weren't good enough.

I'd ban anyone who points out people who they think are trolling. Its the equivalent of a player holding up an imaginary yellow or red card to a referee so he will book someone.

2 or 3 days in after the post, and everyone's at it now.

Don’t think anyone has mentioned the omission of Middleton as well

He just offers nothing, no one has noticed his omission, hopefully sent back in January.

Expected a lot more from him to be honest, hopefully with a more positive way of playing then we will see a bit more of what he can do. May said that yesterday was the first time he has watched Hibs since Aberdeen at home the last game of last season, he said the team picked was based purely on those who had been working hardest in training, maybe explains why Middleton and Vela were out the squad.

I would imagine Murray & Whitty also had significant input to composition of the team. Its entirely possible though that poor trainers were also poor performers on the park.
