Tony Wonder Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Looks like the Heckingbottom deal is up the swanny as well. Shame to see such a club floundering about like this. Real shame. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
List_of_Jericho Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I wouldn't lose sleep about losing out on Appleton or Heckingbottom tbh. As others have said the sacking of Lennon looks totally bizarre now given the lack of realistic options to replace him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football already gives a lot of leeway to managers to act in ways that would warrant disciplinary action in any other workplace. Hibs are a well run club. They have a duty of care to their employees - some of them barely more than boys. If Hibs came to the conclusion that they had to suspend and then part company with a popular and successful manager, I think most reasonable people would give the club the benefit of the doubt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Malcolm Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Just now, Zing. said: I’m confused by it as well. Surely if Doolan is being considered we’d be as well getting Stubbs back as well. Pretty much, yeah – and if the newspaper reports are correct Doolan could be in with a serious chance. It's not as if he has become a manager and done quite well in the interim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Had a punt on Strachan at 40/1 with the front runners appearing to fall away.Ticks all the boxes and is a Hibs man to boot. Would be a proper left field appointment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it’s all paper talk, there isn’t actually anything to say we are considering Doolan but he’s credited with being a big part of Stubbs success. Don’t think he went with Stubbs to Rotherham and St Mirren which seems to give Doolan even more credit since he failed at those clubs without him. Hes also got a good bond with the fans. f**k knows if he’s a good manager but I can see why he would be linked in the paper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snifter Pee Rot Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Turning into a farce now, all Dempster needed to do was get in somebody until May and give them a shot at it to nothing. More names would be available in May/June if it didn't work out. She is looking fecking clueless. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibs aren't in real danger of relegation, and are presumably in little danger of doing anything of note at the other end of the table. Just ride it out to the end of the season with Eddie May and take the time to get a quality appointment in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people I speak to around here are laying the blame on Dempster and Petrie and lack of funds/conspiracy theories about getting rid of Lennon/modern day footballers being divas etc. The way he publicly singled out a 23 year old who's been removed from all his family and friends and being made to play in a role that doesn't suit him has been terrible management from Lennon and I bet the stuff behind closed doors hasn't been any better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
