Our owner is (for the most part) overseas, and further constrained by this poxy virus by being more hands-on the club; so in the absence of a current CEO, who exactly is critiquing this manager, and the results in big games, and almost as importantly his signings which aren't addressing the glaring deficiencies in the team - centre half, lack of forward options and a surfeit of unfit midfield players?
Whose brief on the Board covers manager's and team's performance?

Who is Ross answering to?

2 months since LD said she was leaving and no replacement.
Lack of leadership definitely at the club.

All the areas in the club have their own heads so doubt there’s much impact at this stage of not having a CEO.

Graeme Mathie, the same person he has all season. LD leaving doesn’t change that, although we need to get the structure of the club finalised ASAP so we are in the best position when we come out of this pandemic.

Ron Gordon will be very aware of what is going on at Hibs day in and day out. He'll be aware of the result tonight and the reaction to it.
Like many jobs the Hibs manager will have KPIs and LD having left the building won't have changed those. It's the 21st century if the Hibs board want to meet to discuss the managers performance and the executive chairman wants to be involved in that then it's entirely possible to do that.

Will they be as pissed off as we are at the result? Will they be aware of the "soft" tag that we appear to be growing into again? Will they want to beat that mob from the other side of the town every time we play them?
First half hard luck story aside, Hibs were humiliated in a national semi-final tonight in front of a televised audience. Beat and out the competition after only an hour of the match played.
If that doesn't concern our owner greatly then there's something seriously wrong.

Jack Ross isn’t answerable to Graeme Mathie.
I don’t doubt Mathie will have some input but I’d put my house on him not being the person who decides Ross’s future.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

I’m not convinced Mathie will have a great deal of influence to be honest. Going by job title, yes. But with a CEO in place, I’m not sure he’s making many critical decisions. Seems like a scout that’s found himself in an elevated poison to me.

I knew an ex-player who was brought in as the GK coach, but was signed as a player in case of an emergency with the first/second choice goalies.
He'd had 5 clubs in his career, and he told me that the Hibs' medical was the toughest and most stringent one he'd ever underwent prior to signing for anyone (bear in mind he was signed as back-up to the back-up).
Are Mathie and Ross just unlucky in the half-fit players we currently seem to bring in?

Good thing is Ron always talks about wanting ‘best in class’ so will still be watching and learning for the foreseeable. I’ve no doubt looking at his continued investment that were in for exciting times with the right people in the right jobs.

I’m not sure he’ll be here long term. For me, he lacks any real authority or presence. I think this defeat will speed up the process of getting a CEO I . And the CEO will make changes beyond that.
