Think they’ll need some better players, but I don’t think they will be bottom though

If they get a good slice of any SJM fee they will be able to improve on what they have and Stubbs has a good eye for a player.

Livi are a near cert for 12th, IMO.

I don't see there being much between St. Mirren, Hamilton, and Dundee though.

You’d have though so, but having a plastic pitch will give them an advantage at home

[mutley]

Just spoke to my mate who is pretty much ITK with St Mirren stuff and thinks that Stubbs will be officially announced as manager today. He then went on to say that he give they get the Hibs Stubbs and not the Rotherham Stubbs. Personally I think he will
be good for St M, and I am sure we will give give a great reception at ER.

Did Killie's home form not do the opposite, until the tail end of this year then it became spectacular?

I'm not convinced I buy into the theory.

Great move for him and for St Mirren, feels like a really good for for both.

Stubbs was a great appointment for us, rebuild the team and help create the team sprit and ethos we now have. Yes he made mistakes but it was his first managers job. Better managers than him have made worse mistakes in their career.

Two cup finals are enough to convince me hell do just fine there. Expecting them to be around top 6 positions and play some good football. Our league needs more teams who play Stubb's style of football so a welcome appointment, I hope St Mirren fans turn out and support him.

The Scottish Premiership is the place to be if you are a British manager...the EPL is yesterdays news !

The way I remember Stubbs is that he took over when we were in the depth of despair. He left us after the cup final when we were euphoric!
Total legend who along with Leanne gave us back our hope, joy and respect.
Out of everone who has left and then came back to ER I hope that this man gets a proper heroes welcome!

This is the correct perspective.

When Stubbs joined Hibs, we’d just had thousands protesting outside ER and telling the Board tae GTF.

When he left, we’d just had 150k people on the streets of Leith for a party.

That was not all his doing, of course... but he played a massive part.

I just cannot understand folk who want to denigrate his contribution to Hibs. It’s absolutely baffling.

Exciting times for the league.

Pretty jealous of St Mirren though. Good thing for us is you couldn't see Stubbs for dust the last time Rotherham showed a bit of skirt so hopefully he can be persuaded to come back to ER, should he be required and desired.
** Not looking for a Stubbs debate but if anyone wants one, let's have it

[Elephant Stone]

Will he try and sign any Hibs players? He'll be keen on Bartley for sure, hope we keep him though.

[Diclonius]

St Mirren should do fairly well this season, Stubbs is a big game manager and all their games will be big games.

[Hibs Class]

Hope he does okay there. Think St Mirren played some decent football last year, and if they can maintain the gap over Livingston then worst they can expect is a play-off place. I'd expect them to do better than that, although doubt they can achieve top six.

Yes.When they qualified for the top six they had slightly more away points than home points.Think St.Mirren will really struggle.Manager and probably best player gone ,not a good start.

[Onceinawhile]

Genuinely hope St Mirren win every game apart from the four against us.

Of course we will win every game and finish top, so it's not a problem.

[Stranraer]

Hope St. Mirren do okay. If they stay up I'm sure that will be an achievement. Hamilton defo to go down for me.

[Lago]

I am pleased for Alan Stubbs & hope he does well, for the sake of Scottish football, but I don't get this we must get him back to ER. That ship has sailed.

[The_Horde]

Put your money on St Mirren having a good season but narrowly missing out on the top six.

OK I'll bite.... Stubbs was on the verge of being sacked by Hibs ... until he won us the Cup. He also thought he couldn't top a Hibs Scottish Cup win - a reasonable conclusion. Nothing to do with the pull of Rotherham, more the right time to move from Hibs.

Hamilton 12th, Livi 11th and down.

[JimboHibs]

A man who holds the club very dear to his heart,the emotion he's shown whilst commentating on derby games has been clear to see & he's an absolute gentleman the visits he made to children & supporters who were poorly speaks volumes about him.Without doubt he'll forever be a legend at Hibs and wish him nothing but success for the future.

Hamilton always pull it out the bag, canning deserves a shot at a bigger club.

I refuse to believe the tired excuse, regardless of the amount of games we played this run of results was nothing more than pathetic.

You’ve picked a game that we won to show how bad a manager he is?

[ano hibby]

Hibees 3 Rangers 2.
Jambos know that it’s true..

Won’t hear a bad word.
Good luck Stubbsy

[Billy Whizz]

Seemingly appointed on his ability of bringing through the youth. Not having a go at him, but I felt he wasn’t that great at doing this at Hibs. He used to occasionally go to Development matches, never got involved. Where as Lennon goes to nearly everyone of them, and coaches as well!
Just my opinion of course

Should have added that he brought a lot of good plates to Hibs, much much better than we had, so has some great contacts and persuasion skills!

[Paloschi]

Stubbs was better at recruitment and identifying good young players to sign instead of bringing through youth. That may. D to do with our youth players at the time. Apart from Cummings nobody made an impact

[Scouse Hibee]

Good for Stubbs, he came to us at a time of turmoil, gave us our greatest day and left us in a better state than he found us. Nothing could ever dampen my admiration for him. We have moved on leaps and bounds since then but that cup win laid the foundations and for that he deserves our admiration.

I agree. Plus we then got an upgrade in manager, so it was a win win for Hibs.
