Hearing there's a major stumbling block in regard to funds guaranteed for players and Petrie wanting to keep Nichols. Source is from inside ER.

[TheReg!]

I think our Rod has been caught out cold here, as everyone knew that TB was the no1 target and it was let slip to the press, TB will be asking for more in terms of who, what, where and when and ICT will be asking for a decent'ish wedge for compo, Rod will have to play ball as it will look like he f?cked it up if it doesn't go through regardless.

A friend in Inverness says the deal's done. He got the word from "a cracking source" within Caley.

I would like to keep Nicholl too, but if he has to go for the greater good then so be it. He should have no say in football staff.

Good grief, even our pursuit of new managers has become eye-bleedingly boring. :rolleyes: :devil:

Wonder if TheCat23 has more ITK information :wink:

[Gordy M]

For what it's worth, the opinion of one of the guests on tonight's Sportsound was that if Petrie doesn't land his man, he is as good as out the door.
Thats not exactly how i heard it, tbf to jackson he was saying that hibs could be a huge club in scottish terms, and that butcher would be perfect choice for manager. He said that if petrie failed to get butcher he would be as well leaving as it would be a major mistake not to get him.

[greenlex]

yup ICT would be shouting it from the rooftops.

I for one am grateful that people pass info on true or not.

The fact that we are playing ICT on Saturday is merely muddying the waters. I fully expect an announcement of positive nature to be made on Monday.....

but who would be in the ICT dugout? if butcher decides to stay out the dug out, he could not then change his mind and stay with ICT i dont think, it surely has to be a yes or no tomorrow

I suspect the very reason it has been left in 'limbo' is because we are playing each other

Jimmy Nichol's future shouldn't be a decision for Rodders. The new manager should have whatever team he feels is best.

[nonshinyfinish]

100% the Butcher deal has fallen through and Avril Levein will be filling the gap. He slipped in through the tradesmen's entrance at ER today to sign a 7 year contract.

That said, my source is a total slaver and a figment of my imagination.

I can believe the 2nd part but struggle with the 1st. Whatever funds we give a new manager they'll be a lot more than Tel is used to at ICT. We've spent a lot this season & it may be we have to cut before we expand but I would be astonished if that was a show stopper for TB.

Petrie will be hating this. He's got to get his man or he'll have hell to pay. We simply cannot end up with a 2nd or 3rd choice manager again. Just another failure waiting to happen !!

No pressure Rod :greengrin

[hfc rd]

Thing is though, if the Butcher deal had fallen through or that he decided that he wanted to stay at Inverness, would he not come out and say it that he wants to stay and that he is going to be in the Inverness dugout this Saturday?

If this is true i would like to welcome Terry Butcher in the way that i greet all new players and managers (providing they have enough vowels in their names)

I dont know if he has a nice bum but his anagram suggests that it was destined to reside at easter road.. E.R. CHERRY BUTT

or for those with a sweet tooth, you may prefer... CHERRY BUTTER

Welcome To Easter Road.

On the other hand, he seems to have re-asserted his legendary control over leaks to the media whilst negotiations are going on. Since the announcement that ICT had given permission for TB to talk to Hibs, there has been nothing new coming out via the MSM.

Plus I am sure a manager with Butcher's experience of the SPL already has a shrewd idea of what budget is available at Hibs.

Wish they'd just get on with it so we can move on. :agree:

I want it announced by the time I get back today. :greengrin

I've told him a million times not to do that.

[Hibbyradge]

It will be a shame if it's not announced today as I genuinely think the news would persuade more folk to go to the game.

(Thereby, at least partially offsetting the loss we'll incur from implementing SMAXXA's Let them in Free initiative and Hibercelona's free buses.)

[pacorosssco]

am I the only one starting to think he is going to say 'no'

[Golden Bear]

I've just visited the Stadium via Google Street view and there's absolutely no sign of the cad.

There can be no other possible explanation.

[joe breezy]

am I the only one starting to think he is going to say 'no'

Based on?

[greenpaper55]

If he was going to say no then it would have been done by now, i imagine the major difficulty is that we are playing ICT tomorrow.

[oramhibee]

If they beat us tomorrow- he'll be out of their and in the Hibs dressing room as quick as possible- if we win, he'll stay at Caley. Who ever loses is the club he'll be at- "Oh, no. This club lost, I better get their and help them out!!"

[pacorosssco]

Based on?

dunno a hunch a feeling.

[California-Hibs]

am I the only one starting to think he is going to say 'no'

Nope, I've been thinking this for the past few days now.

[Phil MaGlass]

IMHO, I think he has already decided to come to Hibs but does not wish to rock the boat, which is fair on all parties involved giving the fact theres a game between the two teams, if he tells ICT before the game he was leaving then that would be a little unfair on ICT, they would be a wee bit deflated and hibs would be on a high, only fair really.
I wonder which paper will be first to put "Footballs worst kept secret" as headline.

Hopefully the evening news lunch time edition

[The Sea-gull]

I'm naturally a bit of a pessimist (it helps make dissappointment easier to take!) so until it is announced that he has signed I'll always feel a little bit like he is going to say no, especially the longer it goes on.

If he doesn't come, I'll be dissappointed as have started to want Butcher the man as well as him being just an experienced SPL manager with the right credentials for the job.

That said, the plus side is that presumably if he does reject it this will be confirmed over the next three days which would then leave us two weeks to get someone in before our next game. Surely we could manage that.

But they'll know either way before the game anyway. Butcher can't let someone else take ICT for tomorrow's game and then decide he's staying.

Why not? These things will happen in work all the time. How often will an employee get a couple of days off for "personal reasons" and someone else covers for them. A few days later they come back and resume their job.

I know football is different from your average work place but not always that fa removed.

Maybe it's just me, but if he's still ICT manager and doesn't take his team tomorrow then that's more unfair to them than announcing any decision today. If he's still deciding, then he is still employed by ICT so he should be doing his job.

[smurf]

If he's still their manager tomorrow then he has to take his team against us. For all concerned an announcement today makes most sense. And I feel we will get it. Hopefully...

[Speedway]

Terry's decided to stay but Backpass wants to re-start his managerial career after the Motherwell and Swindon Town debacles.

Kenny Cameron is happier with that because Marsella stays with Butcher.

Rod wanted to keep JN and Backpass has agreed to have him as assistant.

Deal concluded at just after midnight this morning.

Malpas to be announced as new Manager today. Butcher will be in the ICT dugout on Saturday.

[Andy74]

Agree. Not doing it is just stupid if it's been agreed. Not announcing and him not being there for Inverness will lead to more comment.

And you would think that also for ICT this is the preferred route. Surely they don't want a manager managing against the club he's all but left to join....

Completely agree makes sense for all concerned. As it happens I think it will be announced today however any interview, scarf above head photos will be kept till Monday though TB will IMO be watching from the stand.

needless to say, I am not getting much work done today.

[jacomo]

From the Scotsman story today:


It seems likely that he might now stay away from tomorrow’s league encounter – which, as so often happens in these situations, pitches two sides already in negotiations over a manager against each other on the pitch.

Really? Anyone else think of a scenario where two teams play each other whilst negotiating for a manager to move from one to another?

I remember Norwich poached Lambert from Colchester in the week after Lambert's Colchester had gubbed them, but they weren't in negotiations prior to the match taking place.

Huns played Hibs at Ibrox while McLeish was moving through there. Donald Park managed Hibs and Advocaat temporarily stayed in charge of them. I think the Huns had already "unveiled" McLeish but he wasn't officially in charge of either team.

A conversation with an agent has made me wonder if MM maybe would be better getting the gig at ICT and us keeping JN to be Butcher's number two.

He said MM is boring and his training is poor, not a patch on JN.

I'm in two minds, a bit of me thinks ICT haven't done too badly with MM's training but leaving him up there would save us having to give ICT compo and also having to pay JN off.

FFS scoop, he's not even here are the stories of crap training has started. Remember they said that training under PF and the Dublin taxi driver was crap. Time for the players to shut up and get on with it. Not having a go at you about this. Keep the info coming

I'd rather MM came actually. If he stays then we'll start getting fantasy stories about RP not paying for MM and forcing JN on TB.

OK :greengrin

Whatever floats your boat Mikey :greengrin

[borstalboy]

A conversation with an agent has made me wonder if MM maybe would be better getting the gig at ICT and us keeping JN to be Butcher's number two.

He said MM is boring and his training is poor, not a patch on JN.

I'm in two minds, a bit of me thinks ICT haven't done too badly with MM's training but leaving him up there would save us having to give ICT compo and also having to pay JN off.

I'd imagine that if TB does sign, he'd have conditions as to who he wants on his coaching staff. If that's MM then you have to side with the manager, regardless of what anyone has to say on the training methods.

[scoopyboy]

FFS scoop, he's not even here are the stories of crap training has started. Remember they said that training under PF and the Dublin taxi driver was crap. Time for the players to shut up and get on with it. Not having a go at you about this. Keep the info coming

FFS lucky I never mentioned players, I said agent.

FWIW the Hibs players reckon JN training is excellent and the Dublin Taxi Driver was crap.

[WhileTheChief..]

What's all the panic about? We've known since last weekend that he's coming. Chill out folks :)

[Greentinted]

Apparently all three of them have signed according to someone on Caley Thistle Online.

So long as it's no yon Jennifer Melfi wannabe, the info is probably sound.

[scoopyboy]

Agreed but if MM wants the ICT job then TB might feel it would be wrong to persuade him otherwise.

An agent with an axe to grind perhaps? The compo is small fry if it means getting a tried and trusted coaching team in who get is into top 3.

Don't think he has an axe to grind tbh.

No guarantees of top three with or without.

[Craig_in_Prague]

Boring or not, it seems to have worked.

Football training should be boring! (in general), as they need to keep repeating things, until they learn it etc.

Basic control, pass and move.
(Although, the better technically you get, the more fun training could become, as you learn more difficult drills and technique)

Even at youth level football, I found the better teams I played for, had the harder & more boring training. Not a coincidence.

Players should work hard and remember it is their job afterall, East Mains should be more of a boot camp than a 'couple of hours' messing about outside.

[scoopyboy]

What was the Dublin Taxi Driver thing? Never heard anything about this?

Players name for LOB.

[Matt92]

We must give Butcher and co plenty of time. They achieved fairly remarkable success considering the size of club that Caley are, but it took over 3 years to materialise. Butcher is a winner and will not take **** from anyone in the club, he will be a great manager in the future and IMO is exactly what we need right now. We have good players, just need more tactical awareness and fight to blend the process together which Butcher and co will provide.

[Alex Trager]

Players name for LOB. Does anyone know why

Perhaps they may be able to teach our players to take throw-inns. When we get a shy we loose the ball nine times outa ten.

[Craig_in_Prague]

Perhaps they may be able to teach our players to take throw-inns. When we get a shy we loose the ball nine times outa ten.

I thought if the other team put the ball out, you have to give them it back?
Well, that's what supporting Hibs would make you believe eh!

totally agree though, it's pathetic how we just chuck it up the line or give it away......Hopefully TB will finally be the man to sort this basic stuff out.

[jacomo]

Does anyone know why

and corners... Can't remember the last goal we scored from a corner.

[judas]

Personally, I couldnt give a rats arse who is no. 2.

If Butcher has a preferred no.2 then that's good enough for me.

It's called supporting a new manager.

[MurrayfieldHibs]

and corners... Can't remember the last goal we scored from a corner.

And scoring goals?

[TheFamous1875]

Butcher possibly has the potential to become a top manager down in England one day (how he does at Hibs will determine his true potential), and I think this is the level of manager we should always strive to employ. If they're good enough for Hibs, then they won't stay for too long. We should always employ this (potential) calibre and have a continuity to our club and sustain success. Swansea are a good example of this.

Easier said than done, but we have a good grounding to make this a viable possibility (hence the appointment of Butcher).

In quantum mechanics, the uncertainty principle is any of a variety of mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties of a particle known as complementary variables, such as position x and momentum p, can be known simultaneously.
