Monk

Reminds me of when we were allegedly about to sign Edgar Davids

In the post match interview , King was very vague when asked. Made me think either they've had a falling out or is on his way... as he didnt mention a specific injury.

I follow Edinburgh city while I’m at home in Scotland. This window they’ve done 9 players out 7 in. that’s the level of change we need by Monday evening!

Survived 5 mins!

Do it in the same role as O’Neill at Celtic. I can’t think of a personality in world football who is better suited to the predicament we find ourselves in. I also think that the club must be aware of the high volume of terrible decisions they have made in recent times. They need to get the fans back on side. Who else could be as popular with the fans as this?

Seems to need about 5 touches of the ball to control it by which time he panics and does a backpass.

We are screwed Points deduction incoming Manager sacked and I can’t imagine it’ll be anyone other than king in the interim Love Kingy but can he really motivate this bunch? Or we keep Marti and go down regardless. No other manager worth their salt would come here now. I don’t see a way out.

Untenable

Won’t score in a million years playing like this.

Holy shit

Final destination - frank sinclair

Nigel Pearson - the great escape

Smashing lads

From a footballing standpoint absolutely not we are not ready at all, and although I’d enjoy a playoff final at Wembley I can’t see a situation where we could finish 17th or above in the premier league. But the longer our tenure in the championship the more the finances of our club change, the harder it is to re-establish ourselves in the top flight. So we are damned if we do and damned if we don’t. I think the best we can hope for is a continued reset of the squad over the next 12-24 months, ship out the deadwood, try to hold on to our more valuable players. We need to lose the poisonous identity and get the fans back on the side of the club before anything good can come of it. And they have to earn that it won’t come easy.

They could have been 3 up at half time if they were more clinical and organised. Instead they let the doubt creep in and panicked.

Just on my way home from Tynecastle. No way are Hearts winning the league playing like that. Allowed themselves to be bullied and get caught on the break time and again by Dundee United, physical and bullied Hearts at times. I expect MON will have normal service resumed before long.

When Kevin Poole picked up the ball outside the box against Everton thinking he had a free kick, and the referee gave handball, the Everton player lobbed it over Poole and into the net. Mind blowing on all counts.

If they do we will never hear the end of it but I’d love to see someone else win it.

I was at the REAL Edinburgh derby today, Spartans vs Edinburgh City in the away end. Good times. If it weren’t for a 15 point deduction we’d be challenging for promotion. Think we have enough to escape relegation anyway.

Except a few individual runs we’ve looked pretty poor so far. Very unwilling to put a foot in when defending and not much ideas getting it forwards.

SPL is there for the taking this year, if any of the contenders were good enough to mount a challenge to an extremely average Celtic. Hoping Hibs can but based on what I’ve seen so far, defence is too leaky.

Great post, and whilst I’m as annoyed and disillusioned as many posting in this thread I’m far from convinced we’d be better off with a new owner. And so much of what we are living with now is the hangover from Rogers.

87 year old Mandaric? Interesting choice.

- Ruud was purely incompetent, but likeable. The meekest manager we’ve had. - Taylor was incompetent whilst making a lot of changes to the squad, dismantling the team by accident. And he was a tw*t. - The end of Roger’s reign is the worst for me. He was competent, perfectly capable of managing us out of the mess, but deliberately played weakened sides, blamed the players and got us relegated. Threw his toys out the pram and cost us a decade of progress.

Took my wee lad down his first game at Easter Road at the weekend. Hibs aren’t a bad side, they should do well this season. Some tired legs after their extra time defeat in Poland midweek. Good fun reminded me of Filbert street in many ways. id love to raise him a Leicester fan but we will get to a lot more games locally. just need to tell him the legend of Conrad Logan now.
