It was a great one time finish by Craig for sure. Ben Williams in goal was the key man for you.

Actually done pretty well the past 5-6 weeks.

Starting to see progress at the club. May it continue.

The_Kew_Tour · 19-10-2013 01:21PM

Hang on!!

Its going to be a bumpy 45 minutes.

GGTTH

CZ 453 · 19-10-2013 01:44PM

Sacrificing yellow cards in this half. Another goal would be great

19-10-2013 10:28PM

Unlucky not to hold out for the three points but glad to see we were well up for that game today,thought Thompson was excellent onwards and upwards GGTTH

Dempsey · 20-10-2013 02:55AM

if ye go at opposition like that for the season I think hibbees will be happy at the end of the season.

A draw was a fair result despite the chances created by celtic and the claims by lennon post match. Celtic arent clinical in front of goal

The_Kew_Tour · 20-10-2013 03:19PM

Ya I thought we deserved a point alright.

Considering the disaster of the Malmo game and first 2 league games of season I am thrilled to be where we are.

Its better then even being top when we were at this stage last season until mid November.

I be still happy with top 6. If we go further that is bonus.

The_Kew_Tour · 28-10-2013 09:22PM

Big Derby Wednesday night.

Nervous, but hopeful we will pull through.

Win would make us have something to look forward to.

laois hibby · 30-10-2013 05:35PM

don't know if your able to get it but its on the beeb tonight

30-10-2013 06:49PM

Really looking forward to this,cannot see anything other than a win for the cabbage GGTTH.

The_Kew_Tour · 30-10-2013 08:47PM

****ing balls anyway.

We are going to lose arent we?

laois hibby · 30-10-2013 08:51PM

Pretty much my feelings.

The_Kew_Tour · 30-10-2013 09:46PM

This is as disappointing as the Malmo result imo.

I expected us to win. At home against side in trouble and a derby. Sickening.

CZ 453 · 30-10-2013 09:55PM

I'm sick and tired of this.

30-10-2013 10:34PM

That was hard to swallow,totally dominated and should have been out of sight they get a screamer and we fall to pieces,never really threatened after the goal,but Liam Craig should have buried his chance in the second half.Fenlon will get pelters for that result.

Camac Hibs · 31-10-2013 07:42AM

Cheerybye Fenlon, nice guy but totally out your depth at Hibs. Please leave before you do any further damage.

The_Kew_Tour · 31-10-2013 10:55AM

I have defended him up till last night and felt he deserved time and people had to realise the position we were in before he took over.

But last night has left a bitter taste now. Done himself no favours.

Im still fuming after last night. Very few times would result put me in actual bad form, but im disgusted after last night. Just disgusted.

Gutless and useless. Will we ever change.

31-10-2013 07:19PM

i am a fan of Pat Fenlon's and was thrilled when he took over,he steadied the ship after Coco's disastrous reign,but we have not pushed on like we should have in what is a poor league,I thought we would have been far more adventurous in our play than we have been,our home record this year has been abysmal,Sparky has been a huge loss and unfortunately you wont get a half decent striker from Vine,Collins and Caldwell,He has also been in charge of some of the worst results in the clubs history and i take no pleasure in saying it is time for him to move on as i was so proud to see an Irishman put in charge of our great club.

I really wanted Fenlon to succeed, and I think the fans have been a lot more patient with him than those before as he is a likeable, honest guy. However, despite being backed by the board and managing to assemble what appears on paper to be one of the stronger squads in recent years, we have managed to consistently surpass ourselves in ritual humiliation on his watch.

His position is unfortunately no longer tenable, and he has presided over too many "last straws" for too many fans. Many people suspected the last two home fixtures, aberdeen and last night, would give an indication of what kind of season we would have and if Fenlon would be given more time. We have failed to score in either, and have been outsmarted by the worst hearts team in living memory twice this season.

There are some decent players at hibs, but they are not a good team and that is down to the manager. The season can be rescued but he needs to exit pronto before its gets anymore poisonous than it is already.

The_Kew_Tour · 31-10-2013 08:21PM

I hear ya 1967.

Personally, I want him to stay till end of season. I think he has to be given that, but I cant blame fans for thinking different at this stage.

Top 6 is a must though. Anything less and he has to go. He has been given chances, chances many a manger would not have got at other clubs.

I'd love to see Fenlon turn it around. I want him too, christ I do, but last night took the biscuit really.

Hearts 5-1 at least we can be partially blamed on sending off and Peno that should never have been given. Not saying we have won of course, but scoreline would not have ended that way.

Cup final in May well it was Celtic we started brightly and maybe should have taken lead, but we still looked bit afraid and while it was hard task I felt we could have done little better all same. At least given Celtic decent game.

Malmo well we all dont want go there.

But last night was a night to make our mark so be it. It was a night to tell Hearts that we are the team in Edinburgh for the short period at least.

We blew it

We were gutless. toothless, lacked any sort of cohesion.

Of all the bad results we have had this irks me as much as any result. A chance to make amends for some of the hard times was in our hands and we have nobody but ourselfs to blame for blowing it into the wind.

Pat Fenlon: Manager leaves Hibernian

ctrl-alt-delete · 01-11-2013 06:23PM

Credit to him for stepping down, that is if it is 100% his decision as he is quoted as saying.

Must not have been nice hearing/seeing the fans calling for his head the other night.

Can't say I followed his time at Hibs too closely, but I suppose if they can get someone in now who can turn the clubs fortunes around, there is obviously no better time in Scottish Football than now.

Dempsey · 01-11-2013 06:47PM

Wasnt long ago that I commended Hibs on the way they played against Celtic but this is just one high profile & embarrassing defeat too many for Fenlon. Hibs arent in a bad place really but Fenlon is correct in the assessment that he is the source of most of the criticism. A commendable sacrifice for the greater good of the club.

Interesting to see who will get the job

Camac Hibs · 01-11-2013 07:53PM

I wish him well. Sound guy and genuinely cared but its time to go. A lot of frustration from the fans leveled at Fenlon but it was not the personal hostility directed at the two previous managers, just anger and disbelief at being continuously humiliated.

To be honest the other night was a bit of a ridiculous match, and Easter Road cannot be an easy place for hibs to play when we go a goal down. However, the feeling of inevitable calamity is due to recent experience, and no more so than under Fenlon's tenure.

We do not have a bad squad of players, and we can still have a reasonably good season under someone with a coherent strategy for scoring goals. There are rumours of Kenny Sheils taking over until the end of the season with his assistant already in place, I sincerely hope this doesn't materialize

Part of the problem though - its excusable and perhaps prudent to set up like that against celtic but not against motherwell or aberdeen at home, then pass a nil all draw off as progress.
