    Ask yourself this......,..Where does Fenlon go after Hibs?

    Hibs are the top of his achievements as a manager. Would you employ him?

    As opposed to the numerous leagues/cups he won in Ireland? I'd imagine he will get a job in Ireland no bother.

    Get a grip.

    I want Fenlon to go, but I don't see the point in these kinds of threads. They're a complete waste of time. That okay for you? No doubt you'll come back with another immature reply.

    Pat Fenlon has won a fair few leagues/cup as a manager, so it's fairly obvious there is a level there for him. It may turn out that our club is a level too far, but it's understandable why he was given the opportunity at this level.

    Agree some of the posts are OTT but the question is a reasonable one. The fact is Fenlon will never manage a bigger club or be invited to manage any other SPL club. IMHO not one of these current Hibs players is good enough to play for a bigger club. Not one.

    Struggling to think of any time in the last 40 years when that has been the case.

    I think that's a good question and one that's crossed my mind a few times.

    I think Pat's failure to resign, is very much based on his perception of job prospects elsewhere. I suspect he would be back in Ireland.

    It appears he is going to be at Hibs till the end of the season. Let's see how his new signings help the team. But I do agree he appears out his depth

    TBF, only Mcleish and Mowbray have went to bigger clubs after Hibs in the last 30 odd years.
    Says a lot about how we pick our managers

    Will play out like Stephen Kenny maybe? Didn't he come across to Dunfermline with much the same credentials as Pat?

    I agree. Asking for personal abuse is uncalled for.

    Exactly, as in the case of every footballer/manager - good or bad.

    Said this when he was appointed and have since. There has always been a fear he would be Kenny mark II. If it doesn't work out at hibs then he will not get a job in British football but his record and reputation in Irish football would probably see him walk into a job there almost straight away. He would have to do really really well in Ireland or have friends in high places at a club to get a UK no 1 job again.

    As others have said, he did very well in Ireland and will get another job over there very easily. He comes over as a nice guy so, unlike some posters, I don't wish him ill for being out of his depth at Hibs.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.
