'Get Gogic back in', 'Take the jacket off and have a blast at the team' - Hibs fans react to Motherwell loss

Hibs fans were frustrated as they watched their team succumb to Motherwell at Easter Road this afternoon. Supporters had plenty to say about the meek display.

Steven Nicol said: “Thing is even when we win it’s the same style of play but the win covers it up… I like Jack Ross but come on man; the team never looks like it is in full pelt in terms of drive and fire in the belly! When we go behind, take the jacket off and have a blast at the team... passion!”

Jack Gillies wrote: "Fully deserved to lose that today, can’t sit and say other wise. Motherwell set themselves up right and we got punished by them. Certain players just weren’t at the races today and we made a lot of silly mistakes. Three very big games ahead.”

Chris MacDiarmid added: “The wrong striker left in the transfer window!"

Steve McKenzie said: “Pathetic. Look forward to hearing the excuses of why we couldn’t beat a team that couldn’t win a raffle until today.”

Euan Boyle claimed: “Utter embarrassment, didn’t look like a team that wanted to win.”

Harry Thomson was staying positive: “Sounded poor, but still four points clear and a game in hand on Aberdeen. Need to do better, but that's for next time.”

Graham Ackey groaned: “What an eye-bleeding 90 minutes. Typical Hibs though: cement third place? Nah, no thanks, we will put in a stinker today...”

Joe Wilson-Palmer suggested: “Jack Ross needs to stop showing off his cardigans to the players at half time and actually rile them up.”

Ryan Morrison fumed: “Garbage from start to finish. Making a crap Motherwell look good. Need to be shopping for strikers."

Paul Thomson had some suggestions: “Need Gogic back in midfield to bring a balance back; Doidge needs benched; I would be tempted to start with Allan behind Boyle and Nisbet; Irvine and Cadden in midfield; Doig, McGregor, Hanlon, McGinn, and Marciano in defence.”

Alan Duncan added: “That’s three losses in as many months, all at home too. Something lacking mentally with this squad; no desire or determination. We lack a true onfield leader, someone who can grip the team, push them on and motivate them. Too often we are turning up expecting to win, without any graft.”
