    I’m don’t think sacking the manager now is correct but the pressure is on him.

    I don’t recall him winning any big game against a top side.. please correct me if I’m wrong.

    He lost the Scottish cup to a terrible hearts team
    If he loses the league cup semi as well I’d have to class him as a big game bottler and that’s no good for us.

    He needs to drop the underperforming players and seriously consider getting rid of a few as well

    Scraping a win against Alloa is hardly something to be proud of. Even Hecky managed a league cup semi final.
    Who said it was something to be proud of? But at the same time, getting through in a cup tie on a ***** pitch is not always easy and we did the job, so using it as a stick to beat him with is ****ing pathetic.

    Frankly I'm sick of some of this support. Don't even know what they're complaining about half the time. They just want something to be pissed off at.

    We aren’t pushing for Europe. Pushing Aberdeen for 3rd is pushing for Europe.

    We are hanging onto 4th against clubs who have a fraction of our budget.

    We have an unbelievable chance to win the league cup and we are going to chuck that away in around 20 days time unless we add some more depth / midfield to this team.

    The sad reality is that after the Hearts game, the pressure was always going to be on to deliver and get results.

    He has been backed well compared to previous managers. Losing at home to Ross County and Livingston, conceding 5 and scoring 0 is not good enough in my book and I can’t see us beating Celtic away or Rangers at home.

    St Johnstone will be interesting, I pray we win but I’m not as confident I should be.

    Long season ahead.

    Top 3/4 minimum but performing well - not losing to dross. Occasionally beating Aberdeen and Hearts also!

    Top 5 / 6 is failure for me in a dross league with our resources.

    Regarding cups..it’s hard to win a cup but we have a great chance with the draw and old firm / Aberdeen and Hearts out.

    My worry is we lose the semi and then sack the manager when it’s too late.

    Even if we win the semi - we play 2 teams who have just beat us - only positive may be that we won’t let it happen again??!

    But I understand the building and stability part - I’m just shocked how this week has turned out as after Ibrox we had a balanced team and we have pressed self destruct with dodgy team selections / performances and subs during the game.
    We have a squad with very little depth and this will be in part due to the pandemic. Recent losses and many of our losses have been down to bad individual errors.

    Many people are citing the 3-2 win over hamilton as us hanging on but in reality we played very well and Porteous was on a one man suicide mission, giving away a goal, scoring an OG and giving away a penalty. Today's goals were avoidable and the second and third goals are personal errors from specific players cuasing them. We should do better but we currently dont have the depth to even drop players when they are doing bad.

    We are 4th and in a league cup semi final. Would have took your hand off for that at the beginning of the season but the last month or so hasn’t filled me with confidence that we will be so successful come the end of the season.

    Have I imagined us beating Alloa and being in the semi finals?
    Did you watch the game? We were passive, pedestrian and Alloa could have quite easily won that.

    I’m not one that’s saying he should be sacked but it’s a stupid question.

    There’s a whole world of football people out there, the idea that the only one that can do it is Jack Ross is ridiculous. Whoever does replace him will go through a recruitment process.

    Fwiw Mathie said in the long angers podcast he was on that we were looking at the guy who went to Barnsley I think it was. He was a manager in Germany before so the idea that your average supporter on a forum would know all the possible replacements is a non starter.
    I have already said that it would not faze me one way or the other if Ross goes or stays, many on here saying bin him, I asked to be replaced by who! The recruitment process has done us well since Stubbsy eh!
    No one saying anyone would know all possible replacements dont be daft, but for no names to be put forward to replace him is a wee bit strange on a forum with so many opinions, it is also a wee bit of a strange thread started by a jambo?.

    Hibs 3-0 Aberdeen.
    So 1 win v a top club in how many attempts?

    As I say pressure is on big time.

    Season tickets sales will collapse unless he starts winning and the football improves because it’s terrible to watch and he just doesn’t seem to inspire the fans.

    Last 2 games the team selections and style of play / lack of application is unacceptable. It was bad enough losing 2-0 to bottom of the league but then zero reaction and getting beat 3-0 going on about 5 from Livi is a shambles.

    The way he set out the team - didn’t make any subs at half time in both games and general mess he’s made of home games..Dundee Utd late goal..Celtic late goal..this weeks 5-0 games (3-0 and 2-0) is way below standard for a Hibs manager.

    I don’t expect to win every game but it’s the manner we lose and this week is up there with the home derby loss and semi final loss for being simply not good enough.

    So we arent pushing Aberdeen because we are two points behind them, but we ARE hanging on to 4th while being 9 points ahead of the team in 5th?

    Good stats.

    Would you rather watch a Tony Mowbray Hibs team or a Jack Ross Hibs team?

    Its a toss up, either are capable of chucking away crucial games.

    Livingston win their 2 games in hand and they are 3 points behind us.

    Aberdeen have been on a poor run of form, we had the chance to get onto that by beating Ross County and Livi at home but didn’t turn up. 2 of our next 3 games are Celtic and Rangers, we will see how that pans out and where we are in February. We might even get knocked out the league cup by a team 17 points behind us.

    I would take Stubbs in a heartbeat over Ross.

    Might

    Based on our long term results under our current manager it's more likely we will do OK

    I'm surprised Aberdeen haven't sacked Mcinnes yet

    Weird.

    If we won all the games we were “supposed” to win and lost the games we were “supposed” to lose then we would end up 4th. Some massive overreactions on here. Couple of grim
    results but we are better than this.

    With Aberdeen being pretty poor for their standards this season I fully expect us to be 3rd with a much better home record and a Scottish Cup final appearance.
    Very good - living up to your handle I see. That would certainly be a nice outcome - but to EXPECT it is letting yourself in for a fall a wee bit! So wouldn't a League Cup Final win qualify for a space in your dreamscape???

    But he won a cup so knows how to win the big games

    Obviously the Falkirk game a week before wasn't a bottle job just unfortunate

    I would expect us to be beat a championship over a premiership side any day.

    Stubbs made me believe in Hibs again after our relegation. That man delivered us one of the greatest days of our lives.

    Ross delivered the worst day I’ve experienced since that day.

    Some feat that he managed that in two seasons.

    It's almost like you lot don't know the first thing about football.
