Thread: Jack Ross

  1. #91
    I still rate Jack Ross highly. I wanted him to stay and get at least till the end of the season. Reading some of the articles today gave we a wee pang of regret to be honest. I might be in the minority but I thought we could have really built something with Ross at the wheel.

    Depends - if we play good football and lose most will be ok with it. And it's not a big game either.

    I wasn't a huge JR fan & on balance I support the decision to sack him. Some comments on here are bizarre though (shock) . We dominated our semi final against St J for 1st 30 or so minutes & Murphy missed 2 sitters to put us ahead. St J scored from their 1st corner & we fell apart. That's not really the manager's fault though, we showed we could play through them. Again in the final we were shocking but virtually all the vitriol in the aftermath was (rightly IMO) directed at the players for not performing. Now it appears it was entirely the manager's fault!
    On a general note it appeared with JR that when we won 2 semis they weren't big games but when we lost 2 they were!

    I'm saying if he'd not been as good at winning cup matches then when he/we had our first bad run under him he wouldn't have had the angry mob chasing after him.

    As it was he won too many cup matches which heightened expectation and led to his downfall - "he'll need to win the first few matches of the season to get me onside", "I'll wait an reserve judgement until the first derby" and so on until finally he/we lost a few games and it all came crashing on on him. Some folk were living for a 4 match run - going 6 (or however many it was) sent them into over drive.
    A bit dramatic an angry mob chasing after him.
    Every team has supporters who have a different opinion on there manager .
    Ross got sacked because of a horrendous league run there was no angry mob some people just stopped going because they didn’t like the football.

    Fans are so fickle. If we lose tonight there will be folk on here saying SM should be sacked.
    If we do lose tonight, SM will rightly get stick, Ross never lost many cup games when at the club, and if SM loses his first it will cause major stress to some folk.

    That’s interesting because I left the Dundee, St Mirren, Dun Utd, Aberdeen, Ross County, Motherwell and Livingston games prior to his sacking thinking if a better manager had been in charge we would have won the game.
    That's brilliant 😂

    Even if we win this it's not going to be pretty...

    Ross got the sack from his last two jobs for basically the same reason.

    Make of that what you want.

    Yet to see if either will improve without him.

    That Sunderland have done anything but move forward without him. That’s what I make of it.

    It remains to be seen what will happen with us; maloney has started well, I was impressed with the game against Dundee United but tonight was very very hard work.

    Obvs way too early to judge Maloney. Fact Sunderland haven’t progressed only proves that they still don’t have the right man in charge.

    Ross remarks 'disrespectful' - Maloney
    FT: Hibernian 1-0 Cove Rangers (AET)
    Hibernian manager Shaun Maloney doesn't sound too pleased about the Jack Ross interviews that appeared in some of today's newspapers.

    "We had the previous manager come and speak out publicly which was difficult," he says. "I found it quite disrespectful to me and my staff and the club more importantly. That wasn't appreciated.

    "Martin Boyle... We'll know more in the next 24-48 hours but I have to say the boy himself has been very good, very professional


    I knew maloney wouldn’t like this article that broke last night. Ross coming out of nowhere giving his tuppence worth.

    Good on maloney telling him it wasn’t appreciated

    Exactly love he had a dig at Ross tonight - Ross is the reason we have such an uninspiring squad and a team bereft of creativity. Ross had no 'credit in the bank' - he failed to beat a Hearts side who hadn't played much football and a Saints side in a winnable final. His teams, even when winning, were abject to watch. Jack Ross was and is Alex Miller Mk 2

    He did but he also gave debuts to both his sons who were utter gash and had the worst derby record in decades. Other than a couple of seasons (cup win I'll give you) a horrendous time to be a Hibs supporter in my eyes.

    Well said Shaun , Ross trying to make himself relevant . Maybe not as many clubs as he thought knocking on his door offering him a job.

    To think, when the chat started about JR's shoogly peg and possible replacements, I suggested Calum Davidson as a possible contender 'cos he seemed able to get a bunch of journeymen playing as a unit and punching above their weight.
    Judgement up my erchie!

    Jack Ross left a side with Martin Boyle, Scott Allan, Jamie Murphy and Chris muller joining. It's rubbish to say he had a side bereft of creativity.

    His teams were absolutely not abject to watch when winning. His teams was good for the most part, especially away from home. If Maloney gets our away record and performances up there with Ross he'll likely be doing a very good job too.

    Ross had an awful run. At our worst we still were in a cup final. Before that run he was doing a very good job.

    I am.

    I was bored watching a JR team, found excuses on a Saturday not to go.
    I know it's early days under SM but has the football been more exciting since he came in? Again appreciate its very early still

    No. But it wasn’t boring under JR either.

    No, it hasn't.

    The worry for me is that there's not been any clear sign of a particular style of play. We had loads of the ball on Thursday but we were a bit of a mess with it.

    I realise that we're well short of first pick players so my concern is only slight at the moment, but...

    You really can’t judge at this stage It’s a period of transition More players will leave more will come in and the players already bought need time to bed in
    Just now it’s about doing that while trying to get results
    So far it’s three wins and one defeat ( which was expected at Park-head )
    You can’t ask more at this stage
    It’s going to take well into February and hopefully a fit Mcgennis included before we will know if team are gelling and playing the way Maloney wants
    Even then it’s probably going to take the summer Transfer window as well
    We also need to see how he reacts when we get a defeat or two defeats in a row
    But for now he is doing fine

    Think the style is really obvious along with the change of shape. We’ve lacked quality, particularly in the final third, but the way he wants to play seems pretty clear.

    Mikey Stewart was critical of our play during cove game
    Said we play far too many passes only to arrive back where the move started
    And said we were attacking without purpose
    Clearly just his view but he has heaped praise on hibs in the past
    Oh and he felt were are too slow moving the ball about lacking urgency

    What is the style? I really didn't see any particular way we were playing. It certainly wasn't exciting or interesting.

    I’d probably agree with his analysis. It obviously doesn’t help that we’re missing players.

    I don’t disagree with anything he’s said there. Just the previous point that there isn’t an obvious style. I think there is but I just don’t think we’ve executed it very well in the two games this week. We might not until the players change but Hopefully the team will settle a bit over the next few weeks as well.
