Not heard a peep from him for a while, is this normal for a director of football? I would like to hear an update about what the plan going forward is, from the guy that’s meant to be in control of the footballing side of things

Actions better than words perhaps?

He'll be lying on his office floor in a pool of sweat right now.

Nah, he should have been hosting a series of drop in sessions across the UK to speak to Hibs fans up and down country. A much better use of his time than identifying players...

Cannie believe B McD has been so workshy

glad you’re around hadn’t heard a peep :)

[allezsauzee]

I'd rather he kept his cards close to his chest to be honest. I don't really feel the need to know in advance what his plans are as long as he's doing a good job. I'd say the recruitment has been significantly better since he's arrived but we have a few years of neglect/incompetent recruitment to overcome so it's not going to be an overnight job.

[Since452]

If the loans can propel us up the league and change our performances then he'll deserve the credit. Time will tell.

This is why i think Monty's not gone already.

He hasn’t gone already because it would be absolutely moronic to do so.

Hardly.

There would be a business case for letting him go and a business case for keeping him. Results aren't good enough. Fact and with the statistics to prove it. It wouldn't be moronic to hold your hands up and admit you had hoped for better. You could argue that it would be moronic to persevere with the wrong man for fear of losing face.

Not that I think we're doing that. The club obviously have a lot of faith in Monty and his playing style. Faith that still needs to be realised in performances and results though.

"Not gone already".

Gies peace.

Could you imagine getting rid of a manager so quickly. Especially when we have signed up to his ideas and philosophy. Basket case stuff.

Lee Johnson didnt last long under McDermott

No. It would just be moronic.

Did we not get rid of Maloney quicker? We have previous. I don't think he'll be sacked though unless we find ourselves in a relegation scrap.

Okay.

[Northernhibee]

Was he recruited by Kensell and:or Ian Gordon as well?

Might be another worth punting if so. A proper clear out.

[HendoDelivered]

McDermott seems all for the manager going by his interview before the game.

[Gloucester Hibs]

Wouldn’t trust him with another managerial appointment tbh. Or another transfer window.

[ScottB]

Hopefully the Black Knight guys can send us someone that can run the football operations / pick a decent manager / plan a decent transfer window.

[Unseen work]

McDerrmot was a decent manager, I don’t believe he watches us and thinks we’re any good

[Wheat Hound]

Another failure of an appointment. Crying out for experienced & capable defenders and he recruits 3 x 20yr old loan defenders. Shambles

[PH91]

Our recruitment since Ross left has been a disgrace. I haven't seen anything from BM to suggest it is going to change soon.

We might have millions to spend in the summer but it won't get us anywhere if it's the same people spending it.

[Chorley Hibee]

I've never understood why so many people on here have spoken about him as if he's some sage of the game.

Quite how he approached that window just gone with the idea that two 20 year old, pretty much untried centre halves, as being the answer to our on-going issues there, is beyond me.

[7Hero]

Brian McDermott has said more than once he was surprised he got the Hibs job.

Kind of says it all that.

Doesn't it ?

You mean our recruitment since Mathie left has been a shambles. Don't forget, lots of people wanted him gone because we missed McGrath and were pleased when he went .

[Chipper1875]

They said they wanted someone with experience of Scottish fitba and then appoint someone with no experience of Scottish fitba . Ian Gordon and Ben Kensell have no clue about running fitba side of a fitba club

He signed Tait and Dan McKay both useless

[Hibees1973]

Can anyone here seriously say that recruitment has improved since Mathie left. Really.

Recruitment has had loads more money at their disposal than Mathie had, yet the squad we have now is a disaster.

[Torto7062]

Spoke to Brian in the Chairman's Club after the game and some arse tried to give him it tight.
Fair play to him he kept his cool and walked away from daft.
Clear to see he wasn't happy with the performance today

[ScottB]

He can go with the manager he appointed, quite what he adds or has improved is a mystery.

Maybe Black Knight employ some folk who know what they’re doing…
