    It’s definitely not true, as he has recently spoken out saying that he’d like to work abroad if he gets the right opportunity
    Working abroad is different from having a family settled in Northumberland. Different scenario...ask Boyler

    Sure Ross is a Dundee fan so couldn't see him take the United job.
    Really don't think these kind of things matter tbh given he never played for them.

    Maloney wasn't given a fair crack at Hibs. Hope he does well he had loads of ideas and will have learned a lot from his time with us. Expect Dundee to be challenging.
    While it's fair to say he had his difficulties it is also fair to say we were struggling big time and can understand why the club got rid as there were not enough signs that things would improve if he was given longer and had another window.

    Might suit Maloney and Dundee. They should have the squad to win that league. They'll certainly be favourites. Interesting to see how he gets on but I've already primed the Dundee fans at work not to get their hopes up.

    Tend to agree though not sure his legs seem long enough though looks like how he normally dresses.

    The sacking of Mcpake was utterly bizarre. Hope he absolutely smashes it at Dunfermline.
    Bizarre in respect they got McGhee instead that is for sure

    There are definitely parallels between Hibs and Dundee in terms of sacking managers who have done relatively well and it backfiring.

    Was McPake not sacked during one of Dundee’s best spells of the season? Where as Ross was sacked during one of our worst spells in years?

    In some respects there was parallels, in some they couldn’t have been more different.

    I zoomed right in and it looks like Maloney to me! Definitely maybe. At first I didn't think it was him.
    Can nobody do a crop and edit or do I have to do everything myself? Honestly.

    Agree.

    I think results wise he can’t have a lot of complaints about getting sacked. He can have a hell of a lot of complaints about the backing he received though imo after having the best non old firm player by a mile sold for a huge fee the minute he was in the door and then having him replaced by a bunch of young laddies with little first team experience.

    I don’t think Maloneys time at Hibs really told us anything about his ability as a manager. Jack Ross wasn’t doing any better with a better squad when he got sacked and I’m not all that convinced most other managers would have done much better with what Maloney was left with post Boyle.
    Exactly . Even resultswise , what were club expecting without Boyle and 5 or 6 other first team players out every match ? Even then , the performance against Dundee Utd in last pre split home match was one of our best of season and Hampden semi showed he certainly knew how to motivate players . We were very close to 4th and a cup final .Maybe even that wouldn`t have been enough to keep him in job . i wish him well but if he`s Dundee manager ( not sure if it`s confirmed ) I think he may have a hard time as I doubt he`ll have resources to buy a better squad than ICT , Partick Th and maybe others . He`ll have problems with fans understandable dssatisfaction after sacking of McPake and employment of McGhee though after Hibs he should be used to unpredictable decisionmaking . If he can overcome those obstacles and get Dundee promoted he`ll have learned a lot from his time with us and Dundee and will be in demand elsewhere .

    He was given as fair a chance as anyone else would’ve got. The football was absolutely dire and the results were embarrassing.
    4 months and no windows is a fair chance? Embarrassing comment. Maloney may or may not succeed. Hibs have treated him shamefully in any case.

    He did get a window. He largely brought in awful players.

    Maloney is arguably the worst manager in our history and at very best may only be saved from that accolade by Butcher. Didn’t make himself popular and the football was atrocious.

    He got more time than he deserved.

    If it wasn't for the injury list he would have been punted after two months not four. It bought him time. Painfully out of his depth.

    Come on now had he had a fully fit squad to pick from he’d have had a much better chance at it the injuries played a huge part, he had to try and build the confidence of guys like wright Scott and Campbell all pretty much unused and unwanted by Ross became first picks for Maloney.

    Having the options of fully fit players such as doidge Nisbet magennis and Clarke from the start would have made things a lot easier, he’d lost all 3 of the players that made JR’s season so good the previous year throwing in the Boyle sale any team and manager would struggle losing 3 who made so much impact

    Wonder where Dundee would have finished had McPake not been bulleted in favour of the disastrous McGhee appointment.

    Dundee are a basket case of a football club. I don't know how anyone could watch the slow car crash that was Maloney's tenure at Hibs and think "he's the man for us". In almost every metric he seemed found wanting..tactically, problem solving, subs, communicating ideas, working with the media. Maybe he'll have learned a lot and be able to put it into practice at Dundee but it's a hell of a risk imo.
