First of all THIS RESULT WAS INDEED TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE but I'm sure many Hibs fans, incl myself, expected this poor result, the main factor being that Livy have a huge advantage on their artificial pitch and Hibs really have to "show up" to earn a result - they didn't!! Also I'm sure the players were forewarned to be careful when playing on this pitch - not exactly comforting advice eh!! What intrigued me as well was the fact that Jack Ross fielded an unchanged Hibs team but the games are arriving "thick n fast". So resting certain players must be considered in order to keep them reasonably healthy and fit - he didn't do that and Hibs deserved what they got with Livy's CB, Guthrie (not a notable goal scorer!) grabbing a "brace". I think today's result finally confirmed "enough is enough" and the manager must try to sign up better players for key positions as well as offloading "duds" - we have a few them btw!! IMO we should be well above Livy by a country mile and we are not because Hibs are not a fully accountable team/player squad - that must be remedied pronto in order to retrieve a fairly unimpressive footie season for the "cabbage n ribs" or it is just gonna "peter out" as a "nothing season". I can't even see Hibs having a significant Scottish Cup run at the mo either!!
