    Next hibs manager

    Stubbs is now 1/10 to leave hibs, so looking more likely, but if he does go, who would you like to see replace him?

    Not Stuart McCall anyway. IMO we'd find it hard to find someone better or as good as Stubbs.

    Why would any Hibs fan not want a manager who'd taken Motherwell to 2nd place and two 3rd place finishes on a smaller budget than we have?

    I cant see whats wrong with his CV other than he's an ex hun?

    Personally i just dont see Stubbs going to Rotherham, i dont think this is the step up he see's as the right one at this moment in time.

    I wouldnt be against McCall in anyway - his motherwell team played good football and were quick

    improved slightly a rangers team in a mess, and had many a good season at Well

    Mind, I wasnt against Terry Butcher either

    I reckon Yogi/Laptapy combo would be in the mix too

    I do hope Stubbs stays though

    Somebody quite rightly pointed out an another thread his unacceptable hair do. That's another factor going against him.

    I really dont know if he's the right man should we need a new manager soon, but hair do apart he's proved himself in the SPL or whatever its called these days, his teams also had wide men with pace, he also signed some very good keepers.

    2nd place and 3rd twice is not too shabby for me, Jimmy Calderwood was another we seemed to turn our nose up at too in the past, and being too orange was one of the reasons i read here too.

    He will link up with leann dempster again aswell who was at Motherwell with him aswell so McCall could not be a bad shout.

    When Stubbs was appointed McCall was available then, given that Dempster had just been working with him at Motherwell and on the face of it done pretty well I would question why we didn't go for him then?

    We needed someone quickly, she obviously knew all of his attributes and what he was like to work with but something stopped us going for him and that concerns me a bit about going for him now. I'd also question why nobody else has given him a go?

    IMO he probably doesn't fit into the 'first team coach' model we are currently working with, he comes across as more of an old school traditional manager.

    I also feel we have finally built a bit momentum as a club, a manager that's not universally popular could put us back to square one.

    Maybe a bit soon for him straight away? Perhaps become assistant to the new coach since I'm assuming JD and AH will be off with Stubbs if he goes

    What's Steve Clarke up to? Wasn't he linked with us before?

    What about Stewart Baxter? He always gets mentioned.

    Every time we've gone for the manager I've wanted it's been a disaster. I'm hoping for a surprise appointment (but maybe I've cursed that now too?).

    Absolutely no inside knowledge but I also am not convinced that Stubbs will see Rotherham as the right step in his career. Apart from earning more money on just don't see it as a great move. I could understand him going to an English Championship team challenging for promotion but does he fancy an inevitable relegation battle next season or Europe, winning promotion and having a shot at the cups again next year with Hibs?

    I might be wrong but I don't think Wright would leave the Saint for another Scottish club. But I'd take him. McIntyre has done really well with County too. A manager like him.

    How's Jackie McNamara getting on? I'd maybe take Derek Adams if things don't go well today at Plymouth.

    I don't want him anywhere near Easter Road. He's a Hun who would bring kenny Black in as his number 2. The thought of that animal in the home dugout is enough to turn my stomach.

    United we stand here....

    McNamara is contracted to York City who he got relegated last season.

    No he wasn't. He left Motherwell in November of Stubbs' first season here.

    Stubbs will go sometime but i doubt it will be this season. ...1/10 odds from the bookies means absolutely hee haw.....think its more scaremongering from the media......now that we Have euro games to play i fully expect more disruptions from them

    I'll wait until there's a vacancy thanks.

    We still have a manager. At least I hope we do.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    I'd take O'Neill but hasn't he signed a new deal with Northern Ireland? Can also see English clubs trying to get him.
