I don’t know any Sunderland fans so I don’t think
I’m able to comment on this.

It's easy to say why can't we reproduce the spirit that beat Rangers in the semi - harder to do on a dreich afternoon at Easter Road. It shouldn't be.
Ross obviously finds it hard to fire up his team at home.

I’m wondering when is the tipping point for the guys who want the manager to stay? If we get to January and are still struggling? If we lost cup final? Is it now a game by game situation?
I hope we do go on a run but for JR’s own situation, it needs to start soon.

i think with the ****bos doing well, it also puts additional pressure on the club and magnifies our own inadequacies.
These things can change quickly. We really need a win on Wednesday night.

Winning games and not losing to teams like Ross County and Dundee Utd without as much as whimper would be a start.Hibs.nets negative posting legend and unofficial ticket agent.

Poor record vs county, that's for sure.
So basically you're just upset with his recent bad run, which is fine. I am too. But your man Doidge securing 3rd for us last season surely outweighs a poor 7 game run?

I doubt any Hibs manager has ever had the full support of the fans. it’s just human nature. I remember when Miller was appointed and the fans were up in arms because he was a Hun.
I think JR probably still has the backing of the majority of fans. That will evaporate quickly tho if form does not pick up before the winter break. He needs to convince people he has the ability to turn this retched form around.

I think people were generally all behind him at the start - after the 3-1 defeat to Stendel's shambolic Hearts team I would agree with you that he hasn't had everyone on side.
The derby on Jan 3rd is huge for him in terms of fan support.
His record so far is: played 4, won 1, drew 1, lost 2. If he loses that I think he would have a really difficult time recovering ( unless we win the cup).Last edited by LaMotta; 05-12-2021 at 06:19 PM.

Mowbrays team in his first season was pumped 3-0 off of Livi (at home!) and Inverness. Lost home and away to Killie. Second season beat 4-0, 4-0 and 4-1 by Hearts, lost at home to Inverness (twice!), pumped by Dunfermline in cup, lost at home to Falkirk.
Under Stubbs in his first season we lose at home to Falkirk three times, lost to Alloa, QotS twice, Raith. Second season, lost to Dumbarton, pumped at home by Morton, beat by Dumbarton, QotS, Raith, Alloa.
They were our good managers!
If you’re not going to be happy until we have a gaffer who makes sure we don’t lose to the “smaller” teams, then you’re never ever going to be happy.

The issues of why we weren’t doing that well and had gone into a losing streak, were well rehearsed at the time and widely accepted by the majority on here
Yes Doidge is now back but in reality it will take weeks snd more game time just to get him match fit
Murphy will need to be eased back in so he gets stronger and match fit
Mcgennis we won’t see back this year
None of the fringe players ( Campbell excepted ) have managed to stake a first team place
So three games a week was always going to be difficult to navigate
In reality we aren’t playing as badly as we did in a couple of the early games that started the poor run of form
But the frustration clearly felt by a lot of fans is that in itself isn’t leading to us returning to winning ways
With a fit on form Doidge and Mcgennis and and a few new players being brought in that can improve the team there is a hope we will then start to win games again
But the new backroom staff tasked with recruitment have yet to prove thier worth
If McGennis injury is not healing do we need a short term replacement for him ?
If Hanlon or Porto go out with an injury for a few weeks at present we are in trouble
Some say Ross is too risk averse Yet we wee were comfortably in third place a few months back
His record of getting us to Hampden is good but to finally win a Cup we need our best team on form He is going to be deprived of that for Celtic game
So unless Ron Gordon is so Ambitious he has a better manager in mind that he can throw money at Ross will be given the next window to see if he can get us back up the league and how new players settle in and make an impact
In the meantime it’s a case of trying not to loose games snd find a way to win a few
For me that’s where we are at
Am not happy about it , but I understand why it’s happened and can see a way forward
The one thing that could change that is if we go on another five game losing streak ,but am not expecting that to happen

The good thing is that he isn’t getting sacked anytime soon. A couple of wins and we can all pull together behind the team - at the end of the day, it’s what we are here for, to support.

Tommy Wright left St Johnstone and nobody rated Davidson. Look where he got.
There’ll be plenty guys out there hungry for success like Tam Courts at United.
As Hibs fans we tread a fine line between success (points) and seeking attractive football. What this period has shown me is I enjoy the latter, win or lose. This brand of football is horrific.
Perhaps what fold are struggling with here is that we are on this slump with a good bunch of players. We should be doing better.

Hopefully Jack Ross is given a decent wedge in January to bring in a couple of good signings.. To be fair , the club made an arse of the last transfer window.
