    I've been wanting Butcher to manage us since after Mixu, he would take no crap from anyone, he's a true gent but get on the wrong side of him...AND more importantly he knows his football..!

    They might see the potential in this club? However IMHO there would have to be a massive change in the way this club is run behind the scenes we need some football people in the boardroom

    I would be happy enough to offer the job to Calderwood or Sheils until the end of the season. They are both unemployed so no compo, know the league and are available to start tomorrow.
    We don't have time for a long search so that we can 'get the right man' which is the usual line trotted out by Hibs and results in the opposite outcome.
    Added advantage is they have both worked with Nichol before so no need for major changes.
    Personally would opt for Calderwood.

    Gary Bollan - worked wonders with a group of young players at Livingston and had them playing some of the best football I've seen in Scotland.

    Solid tactician, great development potential and he recognised a good signing on a limited budget.
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    Because anyone who does get it right at Hibs' next stop is the EPL or the OF (GTF) and multi-millionaire-hood, see McLeish, Mowbray

    Butcher wouldn't come to Easter Road. Why would he when he's happy where he is?

    Fenlon will still be manager for the start of the season.
    Unfortunately I think so too, I don't think Petrie will like the idea of going into the season manager-less.

    Assuming Pat does the honourable thing and resign today who would you like to see in the hotseat?

    Thoughts?
    Thoughts are: won't happen.

    Butcher would then be managing a club with Hibs expectations and underachieve. Top 4 is massive for ICT, it's what we think is mandatory so as soon as Butcher missed out on it because Petrie wouldn't sign the players he wanted, he'd be derided like all the others touted on here in times gone by.

    We wouldn't, we could have an interim manager of Jimy Nichol and see how he gets on. If he does a better job (s******) then make it permanent and if he doesn't, get someone else.


    Surely we have nothing to lose?

    Butcher, but he'd need his head examined if he left Inverness for us at the moment. The turning point for me was when Collins left, we pandered to the players when we should've shown them where the door was.

    McCall for me, without the benefits of having a selection process, otherwise Phil Brown from Southend.
    Phil Brown or Neil Warnock

    Fresh challenge for them and they'd tear up the league through better organisation and motivation

    If we have to get a new manager I feel that Petrie and the board should not make the decision on who to offer the position too. An independent group of Hibs football minded people should be brought in to find us a new manager. I would suggest Pat Stanton , Pat Nevin and A Another (possibly not Hibs biased) should be asked to bring up a shortlist and interview them on football matters and once someone has been chosen then Petrie can negotiate the financial package as happens with players. This way you do not get non football people( the board) deciding on football matters.Even if Fenlon does not leave now this should be done on a low key for future reference.

    IF he goes, it has to be someone who has a proven track record in this league. No more gambling on the most important position at our club. Butcher has all the credentials, as does McCall, but would they come here?

    John Collins.

    Never in a million years would he have allowed such a gutless performance as last night's, at least we had plenty of spirit and passion when he was in charge.
    If it's true that Pat has changed so much of the way players behave, ditched the fannies from the playing staff etc, I wonder if Collins's hard training regime would be better accepted this time ?

    An up and coming foreigner from the Dutch/German/scandinavian leagues please. Someone who wants to play football the right way, and knows how to set a team up properly.

    There's not a cats in hells chance Butcher would take the job.

    What exactly has Butcher achieved as a manager to view him as an outstanding candidate ??

    Get Bobby Gould in now, he's wasted on Talksport

    Seriously I'd have McLeish back if not we really need to go with someone with experience at a far higher level than Ireland or even English league 1 or 2

    Why not. He's unemployed great idea.

    Why would he resign? I'd go for John Collins or Kenny Shiels.

    Took ICT from division one to a well earned 4th place in the SPL in 3/4 years. They play fairly attractive football and he seems to have an eye for a player, e.g Mackay, Shinnie's, Hayes, amongst others. People underestimate how well Inverness are doing it seems.

    IMO I'd like Stuart McCall or Terry Butcher.
