    The booing didn't help but that's not the 1st time Hibs players have gone into their shell this season.

    For the 1st time in years we looked utterly terrified at Ibrox. Newall in particular just looked like a scared wee laddie and it showed in his performance. John McGinn was a very good footballer but what will take him to the very top is his attitude and mentality. 'Hearts away, love it'. Can you imagine that coming from Slivka, Mallan or Vela?

    Football is a brutal game when the chips are down and it needs strong characters. If we don't have them then Heckingbottom et al better find some this week or there's going to be a lot more days like yesterday.

    Totally agree. Said on another post that we are really lacking big characters, leaders in this side. Ibrox was a horrible example of this.

    No Daz or SDG and we are bereft of character in Phs side. In losing Marv, Milli and SJM we lost more than just footballers, we lost players with the ability to lead.

    Agree with both posts. It would help if the manager displayed some leadership too by owning his mistakes.

    Think Vela will be up for Hearts at Tynie. He takes players out in every game.

    That’s 17 games away, we need results and Vela contributing a lot more before then.
