Been watching Hibs around 50 years and it actually feels worse now than it did in years gone by. Thought 2016 was going to change things.
Have no confidence in Ross when it comes to derbies and big one of games at Hampden.
Hopefully a few signings and as season approaches will get the excitement going as it has in the past.

IMO is no actual Hibby uses that boy band crap - utter cringe, miles off the mark and taken out of context from a quote from the doughnut who blew Celtics 10 in a row.
Seriously. Why are you saying that? Its just utter rubbish.

From around 1976 to around 1985 it was dire stuff with hardly any Hampden trips for the fans.
Results and improved performances in the Collins, Kane, Goram era and a few good trips as well. 1991 League Cup win the highlight of Alex Miller's area but that fizzled out badly and a few poor seasons ensued. The run of no derby wins was tough to endure as well. Relegation season was a lot less fun than this season as well.
Alex McLeish gave us a good couple of seasons before we sunk back into mediocrity.
We went through a lot of managers with occasional bright spots but by and large it was poor. How anybody can compare this season to Terry Butcher's spell beggars belief.
Although I spent two years travelling to some grounds I don't particularly ever want to go back to I enjoyed immensely the two seasons under Stubbs. Lennon gave as more progress and although Heckinbotham set us back a bit we are back nearer to where we should be with Jack Ross.
I have reservations about Jack Ross as well as many others on this site but for the moment I am happy to go with him.
The loss to SJ and the manner of the defeat is a really sore one but every club gets sore ones without exception.
I don't always agree with your views but I respect them and I'm sure if you look back at the last 50 years you have watched Hibs there were many of them much worse than this season.
PS lack of fans didn't help either

I’m still raging.
Of course Jack deserves to keep his job because in objective terms he got the results, but he’s gonna have to find a way for this Hibs team to turn up when it really matters.

For me, I can't get that excited about this current team. I'd sell all the players that we rejected bids for in January and use it to rebuild.
Miller 94-96
McLeish 00-01
Mowbray 04-06
Collins 06-07
Stubbs 15-16
Lennon 17-18
Those teams all better than this current team.
Watched the Alex Ferguson documentary on prime last night. He says we first played Rangers at Ibrox and sneaked a draw, at Full time the players are jumping up and down celebrating a draw, he goes what's going on here we only drew. And then they win the Scottish Cup and slaughters them at full time saying we set standards long ago.
For me, we wouldn't have lost that Final under Lennon. Not a chance.

Lennon never beat St Johnstone as Hibs manager. He blew a huge game at Tiny and his reaction to that - his “not accepting failure” saw the team descend to 8th place when he left.
How anyone would think he was a stick on to win the cup is beyond me.
FWIW, re the Ferguson quotes on the Old Firm - Jack Ross is also on record at starting the disappointment with drawing against them because he wants us to beat them.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

Collins 06-07 - Sorry, but he just picked up where Mowbray left off.
Stubbs 15-16 - Great side but couldn't break down stuffy teams either.
Lennon 17-18 - 18 maybe, the 17 part was less memorable.

We finished 3rd in the Championship and lost a cup final to Ross County, and a play-off (not the final) to Falkirk, before winning the Scottish Cup.
I was a huge fan of Stubbs and thought he was unlucky not to win more, however I think it’s hard to make a case that the 15-16 side was better than the current side who finished third in the top flight.
That’s quite a leap, imho.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

TBF to him, Jack Ross did something logical and understandable and just put out his best team that day. Lots of people on here were grinding their teeth over his choice to play a different keeper in the semi saying it was a disgrace we “weren’t playing our best team”. Lots of the same people saying all we needed to do to win was “turn up”, ignoring the fact that St Johnstone had our number all season and the only time we got something meaningful from them was a last minute contentious penalty.
Unfortunately they nullified us perfectly and made us look very poor, something we have done to other teams this season ourselves.
The more I look back at it with a calm head, the more I think that was the best thing Jack Ross could do against a team who just have our number just now. In time we will be more versatile and have that understanding as a team and we could do something very special with this squad and manager if we allow them to do so.

Unless he has the biggest budget in a competiton, Neil Lennon doesn’t do winning things as a manager.

Are you one of the ones that if Hibs get beat you go home and kick the cat and don't speak to anyone ?

I'm not angry anymore but just feel drained from this season and apathetic. Didn't bother watching either of the European finals and beginning to develop a major dose of apathy towards football in general. I've been going that way for a while but Hibs were always different.
I'm sure I'll pick myself up but right now I can't say I'm excited for next season. Getting fans back and being able to properly watch games with friends at the pub will probably drag me back.
