5 defeats in a row in the league. Potentially looking at 7 now no Doidge or Boyle. This has to be our worst run of form since we all know when.
Sunday was great and the manager and the players got the praise they all fully deserved but we can’t go on like this.
I’m not sitting here calling for the manager to be sacked this isn’t exactly a Ross out thread but if this run continues then surely the club will have no choice but to sack him or we could be in real trouble which is a very scary thought.
It’s also confusing because Sunday showed we can perform to a much higher level. Yes we had an awful summer window and that no doubt has a part to play in this but ultimately the players that are still here are more than good enough to get results needed.

Potentially felt the effects of Sunday tonight, to be fair. How many times have teams had a huge performance then fine on to win the next game so close to it?

The thing people need to realise is that games like tonight aren’t the one offs. It’s games and performances like Sunday.
Too many performances and results like tonight and not enough like Sunday.
Something has to change.

Unless we lose every game until the final and the final he’s not going anywhere.
I feel like the club are fully behind Ross and to be honest rightly so after what he’s achieved.
But 5 defeats in a row in the league is indefensible. Never know we might get 6 or 4 points from the next 2 games and that takes us 6th and in a final with lots of games to go before the season end.
There’s not a huge gap either way and a run of form quickly changes everything.

Time is running out for JR at our club. There is still time to save our season by a change of management

I’ve never been the managers biggest fan. Not since he walked in the door. Last season he got away with it coz we finished 3rd but in all reality we were poor more often than we were good and the cup runs kept him ticking over.
Personally, I’d have sacked him after the cup final BUT he was kept on and backed in the summer (we didn’t have a poor window in terms of numbers. We actually signed quite a few players). This is his mess and he needs to go. Cup final or not 5 league defeats in a row isn’t good enough. Time to wake up!

What's happened to that Top 4 record for so many months now Jack?
With the run of games and amount of games coming up, I think he's a goner and hopefully sooner rather than later.Last edited by 90274; 24-11-2021 at 09:14 PM.

Tonight's result is not that unexpected after Sundays game. The shortfalls of the summer recruitment are being exposed now unfortunately.

The thing that again puts me off Ross is we Chuck in an opening 45 like Sunday. You think right we have cracked it and we’re back to reality with that.
Sorry but five straight league defeats against anyone in this league is cause for concern. Any players will lift their performance in a semi final even if your not on board with the current coaching staff.
Something isn’t right, sunday wasn’t and isn’t papering the cracks that are showing.

Personally i think that’s being a bit kind on him, and he should be getting more out of the team than we are seeing.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

The club will act in January by addressing the disaster that was the summer transfer window.
Tonight was a game that was crying out for 2 or 3 changes after Sunday and we had almost no options to do that.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I’m actually concerned with it becoming 8 league games
Motherwell after rangers also.
It’s looking bleak. It’s at the stage needs to stop the run of defeats and find a result in any fashion. Time to roll up sleeves because it’s not going to be pretty.
Shows how terrible our squad is, as soon as I seen Boyle sent off I am pretty much certain we will lose 1.0 at the weekend. I’d bite hand off for a point

We won't sack him while we are still above Aberdeen with games in hand.
By January, he may be in bother.

Unless we go from now until the January window without arresting this run he will get given more time.

He had, Gullan, Allan, Stevenson, Gogic, dare I say it Wright with enough experience to put in a shift and supply some fresh legs to the first 11.

But that’s what Ross has to work with and to freshen the 11 up after Sunday those players all have enough game time to came in and offer the squad rotation option. Don’t think it would have changed the score or performance but point im making is Ross was too focused on sticking with what worked against rangers when in reality it was a totally different game tonight.
Poor tactics, judgment, what ever you want to call it

Looks like "Sunday was papering over the cracks" is the new "doesn't win big games".

Sunday's performance put a very temporary mask on the problems at Hibs. Tonight's result was on the cards.
Even with a full squad we are still short of real depth, which was caused by the last transfer window.
If they do not realise it already a few of the posters on here are in for a bumby ride given the amount of fixtures on the horizon. Our real problems won't be anywhere near getting solved until the next transfer window.
It looks to me this season may be one where we hover around mid-table and look for success in the cups. Hopefully we do not suffer injuries to key players or we may continue to drop even further down the table.
No way will Ross be sacked by Hibs, unless he decides he has had enough or feels he is not getting enough backing from Gordon.
