I think what needs to be taking into consideration with how far Jack Ross can take us, is the impact that Ron Gordon will have on things. Just as Stubbs was able to deliver the Scottish Cup and European football, and Lennon our highest placing in modern history under Dempster/STF's charge, those achievements were attained in a period where the financial goal of the club was to break even.
We now have an owner who has higher ideas for the club, he wants us to be profitable and has set out his plans to achieve this (increase revenue through sponsorship, better player trading through shrewd signings (as evidenced with Nisbet and Magennis, for example) and a plan to double the playing budget within a few years.
The background support that Jack Ross is getting/going to get gives him an opportunity to push past a regular 4th with the odd 3rd and occasional 5th monotony.
Considering the cuts to the squad that Ross has had to make this season, to have us where we are is a good achievement, there shouldn't be any doubt about that.
As Andy mentioned above, we are well placed to push ahead of Aberdeen. We're already well ahead of Hearts at this moment in time.

There's tons of potential at Hibs, we saw what the Scottish Cup win did for the club, imagine if we could hit that kind of success regularly?!
Hibs have a massive support, a lot of it inactive, but we see from Hampden trips etc what the potential is when those inactive fans mobilise.
Obviously Easter Road is too small for this as it is at the moment, but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that a successful Hibs could attract 40k on a regular basis.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

I think we need to leave him alone other than support him, and let him build Rome

For me Jack Ross is performing how he should. He’s had a bit of money to spend but challenging circumstances to contend with. I think as time goes on Ross will have more of an opportunity to develop the squad hopefully with fans behind him.
