Should Paul Heckingbottom Be Manager?

[Allant1981]

Absolute horror show today but this is his first real test as our manager, he should get our backing and see how we recover from today

[erin go bragh]

At 2-1 we were getting a foothold in the game( Yes we were lucky at 2-0 ,that didn’t score more ) and looked the more likely to score . Red card totally changed the game in their favour.
Taking Allan off for Doidge was a disaster but can’t judge PH on this game .

If he keeps selecting Steven Whittaker then he won’t be our manager for very long. Horrendous performance from him today.

To be fair you could have said the same for McGregor and Hanlon today as well, if he went with porteous and jackson next week they could have no objections

This,
I’d give him another 4-5 games

[TheReg!]

100% No!
If Ron is such a big time £££ and wants us to be pushing the Old Firn then Hicky isn’t the man. Poor signings, poor football won’t get us anywhere near where a so called Billionaire wants us to be!

6 competitive games into the season. 4 wins, 1 draw and 1st loss today = sack the manager, the invincible season is off.

Who said he is a billionaire?

I don't see any discernible style of play.

Thats spot on for me. We look like we have the preparation and organisation of a sunday amateur team. What the hell is our style of play meant to be??

[Crab apple]

He needs more time but his card is now well and truly marked.

The big problem for me is that if/when he does leave then we're still left with his signings all of whom look far from convincing. .

Allan was injured and it was kamberi who came on for him

[Hibeesmad]

Surely Craig and Dempster should be calling him into a meeting following that result to discuss what is wrong and offering him the resources to fix the problem. If this appointment turns out to be a disaster following the Lennon saga then surely they become under pressure?

2 games in .
Absolutely mental.

Let's see where we are in a few games.

Next 2 games a must win. An embarrassing performance today. Hope things can turn around quickly. If not I feel the board will step in soon as we as a club don't want the dark days here again pre Stubbs era

[S4uzee]

Signing players with a losing mentality - James/Newell/Doidge

Such boring football and last season was too. How many league wins in the last 10 games?

No improvement in the signings either. Get him out our club

[Real Emerald]

He’s not done anything like he said was his philosophy and disregarded players who would have improved us. He’s brought in mediocre (in my opinion) pish like Newall. Not a fan, time will tell but for me he’s way out of his depth with no understanding of the Scottish game. Sad ☹️

By last 6 games of last season are u including beating Hertz at Tynie and drawing with Celtic at home??

He is not gonna be sacked 2 games into a season especially when we won last week??

I am as angry and disappointed in today as the next Hibee but the overreaction from some on here whilst predictable is just making a bad day 10 x worse.

Let's see where we are in a months time but I agree the sands of time are running and we need to see a vast improvement over the coming weeks

I meant 5 games, not 6. Unfortunately I have see his style of play down here too.

I never thought he was the man for us, I still don’t.

I’m not basing this on today’s game, but he’s finished here imo

I think we are in a bit of a catch 22 situation. I think he should be given more time but I also think that Ron won’t give him his full backing financially. I think Ron is quite happy to have a steady-ish ship for now and wait until he has someone he appoints himself before he puts his hands in his pockets.

We will see how the run goes between now and the end of September, if things don’t go too well and we lost that derby, I think it could be the beginning of the end.

However, hopefully we win every game between now and then and beat Hearts to be in a comfortable third position, looking back at this day as a distant memory.

Amen to that.. but the pressure is most definitely on after today

[Not So Young]

I voted yes

I think that two games into a new season with one really bad result does not undo what he did last season it also does not give him enough time to get the team to gel.

The players were poor and his taking Allan off I don't understand however he deserves a chance to get it right, at least wait until we have played everybody once

Thats when I make my first measurement of how we are doing

He's our 3rd choice right back and 3rd choice left back. It's due to injuries he's getting a game, not out of choice.

I actually thought Whittaker was one of our better players today. Granted that's not saying much but I'm surprised to see him being singled out for criticism.

[DarrenSQH]

No. Every signing looks so poor.

I dont see him leaving anytime soon though.

He should never have been appointed.

The longer people accept this defensive slow horrible to watch football, the longer it will take us to recover from it.

I can’t believe anyone thinks he’s a decent manager. It’s heads in the sands stuff. He’s awful. Pretending he’s not doesn’t get you bonus fan points.

Yup. Folk have been pretending since day 1.

Won’t be long until he’s gone.

He’s at fault in 4 of the goals?

I dont know how anybody can watch that game and pick anybody out as having played better than the others. Every players performance was horrendous today. Marciano stopped us losing double figures today.

[ChickenCurryYLT]

Who seriously voted Yes here?

You’re part of the problem if you seriously think this guy is the man to lead our club.

A total mess from the beginning with the shambolic carry on trying to get Appleton in the door never mind the cover up regarding Lennon.

Fans are rightly angry here. I love Hibs as much as anyone but some people need to accept the club have made wrong decisions and can / will be criticised.

I left when it went to 3-1 so if it was any of the last 3 goals then fair enough. I thought his general play during the early parts of the match were decent enough.

Agree 100%

What I saw today was a man who hasn't got a clue, especially about the SPL.
