I don't understand why people are so happy about this!
Should a great club like Hibernian be employing a manager who fights at the touchline? Who has an aggressive attitude that seems to hold grudges. And let's not pretend his baggage has disappeared. I ask you to consider? Is this who we should be employing as a manger?
YOU BET IT IS !!!!! Won't take any bull***t. Stands up for himself. Stands up for the club. Appreciates the fans. Although willing to take his players to task if they are not doing their job on the field, will back them all the way when needed. Will take the flak. Gives us stability that we need and which the players will feel good about also.
Great news. The right man at the right time

Great news, 3 years gives him time to build even more and adds to the stability we have at the club.

Bit disappointed with such a long contract. I was hoping we'd be able to get rid of him cheaply at the end of the season so we could break the bank for Levein.

Whilst Hibs should never be looking up to Aberdeen, they are the benchmark and consistency in their management structure has been key to their success over the last few years. Great move by Hibs.

TBH I'm underwhelmed. Where is the ambition? Our near neighbours scoured the land and unveiled the future of Scottish Football. We and they did not have the patience for the long game. Basically signing someone already employed in the club lacks class and is clearly parochial in its thinking. We were once leaders and innovators. Nah can't keep this up. Yah beauty. Well done The Hibees and its great Neil Lennon is in for the long game.

Personally wouldve given it a few months to see how we are getting on but I trust Leeanes judgement so this is great news. Hopefully 3 very happy years to come.

Not wishing to detract from winning the Championship last season but that is now history. I feel he should be judged from what he achieves starting this season and frankly even if we do not quite climb the heights we might aspire to, he deserves a fair shot and a few months is not a fair trial.
We all know Celtic are 'comfortably' at the top of the heap and as someone said on this thread Aberdeen are a good model of consistency which anyone can learn from. We don't know when Rangers will have had enough of playing third fiddle and give in to the urge to bankrupt themselves trying to buy their way to the top with players they can't quite afford. And god knows how long the mob from One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest will remain in their made to measure straightjacket.
We can only take care of ourselves and if we all stick together, Board, Manager and fans it can only get better.

Top news. One thing for sure, Lennon wouldn't be signing on if there wasn't a highly ambitious plan in place to have is completing on all fronts.
Good indicator of where we are as a club right now and let's not forgot how 13k STs and regular big crowds have supported this ambition. Well done the fans.

Great news.
"Cheap option" I'm sure he wasn't. Isn't it great when we invest in "real" managers and match their ambition. Looks like the makings of a good partnership.

07-09-2017 05:43 PM #60This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show QuoteLennon, whose side face St Johnstone on Saturday, said: "We all have romantic ideas about the game and where we want to go, but the most important thing is if you are happy and enjoy the players and enjoy the environment. And I very much do so.
"It's a very precarious job being a football manager and I'm privileged to be in a job and a club like this. And when you are here you want to make the most of your time, and thankfully the board have agreed to extend my time here.
"My ambitions are here - that's why I signed a contract. I'm not looking anywhere else. I haven't done since I walked in the door.
"It's been a good move for me, professionally and personally. I owe the club a debt of gratitude and I want to repay them with success on the pitch and hopefully make them some money along the way.
"I'm not looking any further than what I have here at the moment. I don't think you can. Sometimes, when you start doing that, you get distracted and lose your way a little bit."
Lennon captured three titles during his four-year spell as Celtic manager and he hopes to win more silverware at Easter Road given time to continue building.
"In the modern game, particularly in England and even abroad, managers don't get enough time to put in place what they want to do," he said. "In Scotland it is slightly different - there are plenty of managers here now who are in their third, fourth, fifth seasons.
"You saw Derek (McInnes, at Aberdeen) sign a new deal, Brendan (Rodgers, at Celtic), now myself - that's a good sign that there are not trigger-happy chairmen around.
"And it gives me a target, an incentive, and scope to work with people and achieve the targets we set."
Lennon's decision to sign was made easier by the club's strong stance following three bids from Nottingham Forest for midfielder John McGinn, the final deadline-day offer reported to be BŁ1.5million.
"Forest came back with a couple more offers which were much more like it compared to the first one," Lennon said.
"We respected that and engaged with Forest and told them our valuation. That wasn't met so I was quite confident we would hold on to John.
"I have spoken to him and he is quite happy to keep his development going here. If he keeps progressing there will be a number of other clubs coming in for him over the next six to 12 months.
"He just has to keep concentrating on developing his talent and making his game a bit more rounded."
