Seriously take a fucking walk now.
Starting Morris at Left back and then subbing him for Dixon rather than just swap him and Dillon about ultimately cost us 2 subs and everyone seen Erskine was fucked after 50 minutes.All 3 subs used after 70 minutes due to mis-management.Hibs were dead on their feet in Extra Time and having fresh legs would have been a huge advantage in this situation.
The incident with Donaldson at the substitution was shambolic.Yes,he shouldn't have walked off and experience will tell him not too ever again.But he had been injured for about 2/3 minutes (and 10 minutes before) WTF were you playing at exactly Mixu?
He is totally inept.We need to build for next season NOW!! And he is not the man to take us forward.
Online!
Mixu tombola strikes again.
Fwiw - thought Dixon was good when he came on. Dillon in the team from nowhere when we had 2 centre backs on the pitch already. Don't get me wrong Dillon was solid enough - but he's not got a sniff of late and can't be match fit.
Erskine the same - nowhere near the team then thrown in..... feel sorry for Spittal- he needs a rest and hasn't been effective for a long while....
I've past tipping point with mixu tho a shame - wanted him to succeed but for whatever reason, it's not happening ..
Maybe he needs to get some 'mixu' type players in but can we afford to be lagging behind in the championship come December next year?

Hes fucking clueless.
The morris situation fucked me right off total waste.
Thought dillon done well. Demel done well also.
Why cant we score these one on ones? Rankins shot good save.
Thought Anier done well.
Donaldson injury arguement we mixu was fucking minter especially what happened a week ago he was injured and mixu didnt no who he was replacing him with. Fucking unreal
If we had a proper team picked proper subbies made and a proper finisher we would have won today.
We need a new manager in to make a start with the revamp.

It looked like Mixu didn't want him to come off. He wanted him to carry on regardless. Probably because he realised he'd wasted a sub already. Absolute minter stuff.
He was either the only person in the stadium who didn't know Donaldson had been fucked for 10 minutes or he didnt care. It had shades of Jackie with Callum Morris at McDairmid Park last season. Donaldson forced the issue this time though.

Mixu has let a number of players down this season
Spittal and Dixon will never be wing backs
Demel is not a right winger
Morris is not a left back
Dow is not a football player
Time to go Mixu

At a time when we needed sorted when wanknamara left in comes this nugget and makes us fucking worse
How has he managed it?
He has to have lost the dressing room

I don't this he's ever recovered from the "what's the point in fucking training" outburst after Celtic away.
Agree Bowers, he's lost the dressing room big style.
It's hard to believe but he has been much worse than McNamara, under Jackie we were shite but the players seemed happy and we might have just got out of it under him with a few signings in January.
Thompson has to take the lion's share of the blame though.
McNamara was saved because we won the derby at the end of last season, he should have been let go in the summer and Wright appointed, 100% we would have been top6 and with our cup draws in at least the LC and SC semis.

Deffo the dressing room is lost. As has been mentioned, the end of full time---we looked unorganized while Hibs were huddled up listening to Stubbs. Gonna be some scary performances to come---I reckon some will just down tools.

"The dressing room is lost"
I don't think he's had the dressing room from day one. He is shown zero respect from a sizeable majority of the squad and the others who seem to care either can't or won't get their team-mates on side.
Jackies mentality is going to take a lot of players leaving to get rid of. The players have played a huge part in Mixus failure.
Having said that, Mixu clearly hasn't helped himself with negative comments about players in the press, negative team selections and tactics, dreadful substitutions and just his all round hopelessness as a football manager. He has to go and go now, I wouldn't even give him the next 5 games.
Whoever is next in the Utd dugout needs to have a very strong personality to impose on the squad, but has to be liked by them also. Someone in the mould of Levein. Playing in the championship it's going to be very hard to find the right man for the job, but it's fast becoming the most important decision this club will ever make.

^^^^ THIS
I think the start of his downfall with the players was the infamous 'What's the point in fucking training'? outburst at Parkhead.
At a time when he needed these players onside it was a bad strategy to absolutely savage them and bring into question their professionalism.
At least publicly anyway.
