Seems like he likes the sound of his own voice.
I've heard a few comments from him recently and I don't care for him very much.
I wouldn't want someone like that at Hibs.

Seems like an absolute welt. This behaviour will bear fruits akin to Butcher's here...

Totally sound bloke that would bend over backwards for anyone.
A chairman saying it how it is, breathe of fresh air if you ask me.

Telling it like it is usually translates as talking through a hole in the erse.

Man puts in millions of pounds into something he should have the right the vent as much as we do on this forum. If his players can't handle the criticism then they need to wise up. Sure it might be unprofessional but it could also be a kick up the back side the club needed

Would this be the same as Butcher last season telling the world his players were sheicht?

Butcher never bought any players at Hibs, he got 3 loans. Originally Posted by Lucius Apuleius

Terry butcher was correct. Pat Fenlon had left him the most unprofessional set of fitba players he had ever seen. Originally Posted by Lucius Apuleius

Or you could say the players didn't exactly try their hardest . Originally Posted by FranckSuzy

I don't like terry butcher, but Fenlon was even worse. He was a complete clown whom the players ran rings round.
Training was a joke, discipline was terrible, the players basically called the shots. Fenlon signed dud after dud after dud. Any good players he had went back the way. Apart from sparky who pretty much done his own thing regarding tactics anyway. I.e. Got the ball ran and shot.

Indeed. Quite remarkably he took a poor team (but one more than capable of staying up) and turned them into a relegation team. Originally Posted by FranckSuzy

Don't talk shiete pal. Fenlon had his faults however Butcher managed to take an average squad and make them the worst in the division within 6 months. Originally Posted by AK86

I think Butcher came in, realised that what he had inherited was not to his liking and told them so. Originally Posted by KeithTheHibby

He was probably expecting the season to tail off but not to the extent that it did. We would have regrouped as a unit like ICT and built for the future. If our penalties had gone in then who's to say we wouldn't have a team like ICT have now?
Butcher must surely learn from this and I bear him no ill will. He was prised from a stable job where he was doing well and we were just the wrong fit.
And all these people having a go...you wouldn't say it to his face so what's the point?

Even if he has a point, it's bad form to be doing that.

Guys Fenlon's football had fans walking away. Butchers football had fans running away.
Stubbs football has us talking again that we do actually look a football team.
Conclusion is... Fenlon was ***** and had to go said it himself. Sorry but saying "at least he wouldn't get us relegated" doesn't matter a jot. We shouldn't lower expectations to just surviving. Butcher was worse and should have been punted soon as the final whistle went against Hamilton.

Pat Fenlon. The man who made me stop going to Easter Road as a season ticket holder after 17 consecutive years. Originally Posted by Thecat23

Should have been sacked immediately after the 0-7.

I remember attendances going up when we went on our winning run that briefly had us up at the top of the league. Originally Posted by Thecat23

But I can hold my hand up and say how wrong I and many others were. Still waiting on many saying Fenlon wasn't good either!! Oh wait he got us to two cup finals that we didn't win, played football that bored the life out of anyone who watched and had a magical European night as well Originally Posted by MWHIBBIES

You must lead a very depressing life if you only focus on the bad things people do and the mistakes they made. Pat done a decent job with a horrible situation, I didn't say he was Mourinho. Originally Posted by Thecat23
