We asked for your views on Hibernian’s 2-1 defeat against St Mirren.
There were a lot of responses, here’s what some of you said:
Malcolm: We are a team lacking belief, confidence and now desire. This is a rookie manager having no romance with his fate in this league. Played 12, won once and rooted at the bottom. Even the best manager would struggle to get us out of this now!
Ross: Worst performance of the season by far. Having the creative force of Dylan Levitt and Nicky Cadden in the second half improved things. Not deserved but unlucky not to sneak a point. Hopefully David Gray now realises three defensive midfielders won’t work. He needs time, not pressure to get us back on track.
Scott: That first half was the worst 45 minutes I have ever witnessed at Easter Road, an absolutely feeble attempt to win a game of football.
Allan: Worst performance of the season and by some margin. Too many players didn’t turn up on a day that Gray needed them. That said, still some strange decision making from Gray in terms of personnel. We’re too defensive and it’s costing us. Levitt is the only player who knows how to take a forward first touch, move the ball quickly and offensively.
Les: Worst display of the season, Malky Mackay and Gray have to go. Defence are clueless, midfield soft and forwards misfiring. It needs to change very quickly or we are going to be relegated. Not one player looked up for it in first half, Levitt made a difference but the rest were useless with even simple passes over hit or misplaced.
George: Very poor first half. Changes made at half time were positive and we played better in the second half. If Martin Boyle had put away the penalty, who knows? But, where do we go from here? Reset and go again next week? Keep the changes and see if they can perform? Good Luck David, you’re going to need it.
Mark: What a mess. I feel sorry for Gray, but he should never have been given the job without proving himself at another club first. As for those in charge at the club – bad appointment after bad appointment, an awful signing policy, mass overspending, the list goes on. The next manager HAS to be a solid, proven type like McInnes, or we are going down.
Rob: Groundhog Day. How do you stop this rot? Back to basics, aggression, competitiveness and big hearts. None of that on show week in, week out. That is one of the things hurting us most as fans and particularly season ticket holders who shell out thousands each year to witness no fight or desire. Who has pride to play for the club? Owners need to go.
