    I’m disappointed the players are a bit short mentally - it’s hard to go from a high like we had to the cliched freezing cold Wednesday night in Dingwall.

    They showed the boy band mentality Lennon used to go on about tonight.

    As I said. Reality.

    I'll still be at the games though in hope more than anything else.

    Was Ross not strong enough demanding more players.
    Were you privy to all that went on behind the scenes?

    Tell us what exactly JR could have done to prove his strength by being more ‘demanding’? Shouting? Throwing things?

    We won't sack him while we are still above Aberdeen with games in hand.

    By January, he may be in bother.
    By January he could be a cup winner. Keep the faith and persevere. Changing managers will not change anything, it's Hibs. Why keep doing what Hibs do (change managers) and expect different results? Hibs will always be Hibs. I've had 5 decades of it.

    i wondered when someone would bring that up, I was going to as we do have a lack of mental fortitude, no lack of testicular fortitude just a lack of mental toughness, in my humble of course.

    Funny how a lot of folk were implying that league form wasn’t that important and that it was all about the cups last season.

    Weird how that’s changed this week.

    Only a LC win will compensate for finishing bottom 6 😁

    We weren’t poor tho. We just didn’t score with the chances we made. That’s football.
    Last half hour was a shambles.

    I’ll still take a cup win and bottom six. Problem is our form is so poor I can’t even see where the next one comes and everyone we win is a bonus.

    How far down in the bottom 6 that becomes a lottery and battle down in the pit, one that I would not have my money on in regard to this Hibs team, we need to start improving and getting points now.

    Terrible. We did absolutely nothing after the goal. And lost the plot after the sending off. That’s a common thing when we get a player sent off.

    Yeah I agree. We can beat anyone in the league but lose and be flat on any given day. Our squad is thinbare too also.

    Aye it was brutal and there’s no excuse. I can see the frustrations of the players but it’s not good enough. Ross needs to kick ***** after this. Even if Doidge wasn’t sent off there was no comeback after they scored.

    Don't like the the 'huffed and puffed' part and using Sunday as an excuse. We could have easily made a number of changes if he knew we were going to struggle with fitness tonight. Stevenson, Gogic, Allan, Doidge and Gullan could have all come in. Not all five but a mixture of any of them to freshen things up.

    I do realise three did eventually come on with one sending off and the other two did absolutely nothing!
    Doidge was never going to be fit enough to play more than half an hour. The rest with the exception of Stevenson don’t deserve to start but if we’re playing 3 at the back in a game we should be on the front foot in he’s a big downgrade on Doig in an attacking sense. Tbh I’d rather see one of the young strikers get a chance ahead of Gullan

    I’m not getting the logic that we needed to make changes to Sunday’s team for tonight’s game. Yes it was a tough game on Sunday in terms of effort, but it was our first game in weeks. Ross himself said the break had allowed us to work players hard and get fitness levels back up. Surely they didn’t need a break already and if they did it doesn’t fill me with any confidence given the number of games we have coming up.

    The team that went out tonight should have been more than capable of winning.

    You would hope behind closed doors it would be different but there’s a definite split behind the scenes that was tried to be rectified with Sir Dave being put in his position.

    My thoughts is Jack Ross is still the best person to lead our club regardless as we will, knowing our history, do much worse if he’s punted. There’s no chance of that happening any time soon anyway.

    We played Ross County in the League Cup final and lost on the Sunday, picked ourselves up, no drama and went to Inverness in the replay and won. I kind of thought the reverse would happen tonight. It’s weird.

    Folk will be complaining next that Jack Ross cannae win small games😜

    I’ll be honest … the minute it became apparent that we were not bringing in another good striker to cover Doidge’s injury I fully expected the next 2/3 months to be very difficult. When Nisbet is up top himself I rarely believe we look threatening especially when teams are sitting in. I don’t blame Jack Ross for most of the problems we’ve had recently.

    I’m 100% in agreement.

    I’ll go as far as saying the board or recruiting team or whatever hung Jack out to dry, just like we did when we sold Stokes under Yogi and emergency *****. Hughes was hung out to dry.

    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.
    I’m not calling for the manager’s head but…
    WTF is your thread title about then? Deary me.
