    Cup final or no cup final. The manager has to go. The man is not up to the job!

    Been like this since I started supporting hibs since the sixties. We are in deep trouble as our midfield is poor and we don’t have a strike force. Then add in the ageing defence .

    Yes 40 odd years for me, it's been the occasional highlight, but mainly mediocrity.

    Yep - it's sport - anything can happen. That includes Hibs getting beaten and then having great results like on Sunday.

    My first game was probably in 1972 / 1973 - Hibs have not been great for most of the time since then, but it's been great being a supporter.

    Why don't we learn something from Man Utd (or from our history) - constantly changing manager and going through loads of players achieves nothing. Stick with Jack Rossand the team and hopefully celebrate a Cup win.

    Would we rather be in Hibs position - or Hearts, Aberdeen or Dundee Utd?

    Squad very sparse and then let down by unprofessional actions tonight.

    5 defeats in a row is totally unacceptable for hibs,manager not my favourite but he was let down in the last transfer window.

    Yep. They build you up and then drop you down from a great height. That was atrocious tonight and showed exactly what we’re lacking. Nisbet had 3 great chances to score and didn’t get close, he needs to be dropped and given a rest but there’s no one else to take his place. Doidge and Boyle both managed to get themselves sent off by being ****in idiots, that means we’re flogging a dead horse for the next 2 games. I feel sorry for Nisbet, he’s not had a break for well over a year and he’s had to lead the line when in any other circumstances he’d be given a break. On that performance it’s going to be a torrid time with all the games coming up.

    United we stand here....

    Our squad is awful and it’s not been helped by individuals letting their teammates down. Doidge and Boyle both utterly stupid tonight. We now go into two big games without Doidge and one without Boyle.

    Being in a position where two of our summer signings can’t even make the squad while Darren McGregor and Jamie Gullan are getting game time tells it’s own story. Shambles.

    Right now a relegation fight looks more likely than 3rd. January transfer window is massive now.

    Right now neither is the most likely option.

    I agree, we will stutter along in 6th or 7th eventually ending up 6th.

    Basically boring.

    Could be curtains for J R if that happens though, as STs will plummet.

    I think the January window will be huge for him. It’s seems to accepted that he was badly let down in the August window and as a result I’d expect him to receive decent backing in January. We could win the league cup and have a strong second half or we could limp along and as you say be basically boring. Right now with the games coming thick and fast we need a manager to guide us through, tonight was a bad start to that.

    It's really boring getting to all these finals and semi-finals?

    I really don't understand football fans - this is a great time to be a Hibs fan - when has it been any better?

    I could agree with this if we played attacking free flowing football. But since we are no where near that, I’d disagree.

    We are a very boring team to watch just now though.
    Stop Boyle and you stop Hibs.

    It’s not just next season’s sales that will be down, attendances at ER are going to fall throughout December I’d imagine. Home games are going to be pretty grim.

    We’ll limp along to the transfer window, but if we’re honest with ourselves, we won’t strengthen enough to be in a position to challenge for Europe.

    Fans waiting for Doidge to come back, he then gets sent off in his first game back, Boyle follows him with a stupid red card?
    What chance have we got if we get players back, but can't keep our discipline?
    Poor manager is getting pelters, but its the players letting him down!!!

    This.

    Like any match we play, god knows how we will turn up.

    We need to arrest this slide and tbh I'm far from confident we will do so in the next couple of games.

    With a hectic schedule coming up, a still not insignificant injury list and now 2 stupid suspensions we are in a bit of bother. Ross needs a big result in the league and quickly. The performance is largely irrelevant, we just need a win. It's far from an easy run coming up so the sooner we get it the better.

    Tonight is so disappointing in a number of ways. It once again highlights how important starting a rebuilding process in January is.

    We’ll get beat by St Johnstone, and somehow manage to skelp the Huns again next week, before losing at home to Motherwell the following weekend. Stick a score on it!

    When 2 of them can't even make the bench, one of them is currently playing for Raith Rovers, one isn't here yet, one has been injured for months and one of them is a 3rd choice goalkeeper?

    Window was so bad when you look at it spelled out...

    I cannot believe this was solely the fault of Mathie though. Hoping it was as it'll mean we have chance to have superb January window but I won't hold my breath.

    This is my concern (that it wasn’t all down to Mathie).

    There will probably be huge pressure on Hibs to salvage the season with an exceptional window - and the last one was atrocious.

    Has enough changed for us to have confidence that we’re going to do the business we so badly need?

    Wood and Scott aren’t getting on the bench. Poor.
    JDH has been decent, struggled since his COVID but seems to be getting back to his best. Good.
    McKay. Injured. Judgement reserved.

    Honestly can’t even remember who else?

    The point is it’s not about quantity.
