Who's Next?

[Dashing Bob S]

Ian Murray. Knows how to win in the championship with limited resources. Probably knows what it takes to get out of that league. Personable, straight-talking. Good match up.com for Leeann.

[SlickShoes]

Jim Duffy via Helicopter needs to start ASAP.

[truehibernian]

It's a given.

Don't agree. Not ready IMO. Proven manager needed.

Or we need to be lucky and unearth a gem like Mowbray.

[Robinho08]

McCall is being linked and knows LD.

[Stevie Reid]

I know may will dismiss him, but I'd be happy with Ian. Achieved incredible things at Dumbarton despite only getting the players for four hours during the week, and says he'll be taking his team to Ibrox, Tynie and ER next season with an expectation of getting results. We need someone like that.

[yeezus.]

Would Simon Grayson consider leaving Preston?

[Stevie Reid]

Would Simon Grayson consider leaving Preston?

Maybe, just maybe if we were SPL - but I would still doubt it very much. Nae chance in the Championship.

:aok: too much of a step down I guess considering he may well take Preston to the Championship next season.

[Stevie Reid]

Yep. English Championship the 5th richest league in the world!

[GRANTON_HIBS]

Somebody currently unemployed so no compensation to pay out. Tony M.

[Iceman1875]

Ian Murray for me although I think Owen Coyle would be a decent shout.


At Easter Road we play...

[Aldo]

Would Simon Grayson consider leaving Preston?

Good manager tbh but doubt it.

[gillythehibby]

Ian Murray. Knows how to win in the championship with limited resources. Probably knows what it takes to get out of that league. Personable, straight-talking. Good match up.com for Leeann.
Not experienced enough for the HIbs job. Would be good number two tho to learn the ways of the JEDI. :greengrin

[Itsnoteasy]

Somebody currently unemployed so no compensation to pay out. Tony M.

JC

[Stevie Reid]

Not experienced enough for the HIbs job. Would be good number two tho to learn the ways of the JEDI. :greengrin

If we were SPL I would say that Ian plus an experienced figure would be the right idea - but he's had practically two years managing in the league we are now in, and he knows what we're all about.

Jim Duffy was an experienced manager when we appointed him and he openly admitted that he completely underestimated how big the job was. Ian wouldn't - and I don't think he would accept having to play second fiddle to someone.

[Aldo]

JC

Nope not for me. Thought he was poor tbh.

Plenty of managers out there that would do a job but JC isn't one of gem unfortunately.

[jonny]

Paul Hartley anyone?

[bingo70]

Definitely not Ian Murray.

[nribs]

Paul Hartley anyone?

Nah he just took Dundee up and is probably enjoying putting his team together.

[MG1965]

Billy Davies??

[nribs]

Billy Davies??

Please please no for whatever reason I can't stand the guy.

[tamsonsbairn]

Russel Latapy.

[Sumner]

Jim Fuddy, 4 month contract, followed by Jocky Scott 3 week contract..

.. revolving door added to the "infrastructure" of the building..

... Petrie continues to run the club into the ground, hiding behind Leanne

[lord bunberry]

Murray for me as well

[PatHead]

Would like Jackie MacNamara myself.

Seems to be able to work on a budget and get the best out of youths.

Even with us being in a lower division Hibs are a bigger club than Dundee Utd.

[Unseen work]

I want a manager:

We have not had before

Plays exciting football and fresh ideas

Has reasonable experience

Good contacts to build up a good mix of squad

Is this to unrealistic? Hahah

Please not any of - Kenny shiels, Danny Lennon, jimmy caldwrwood, Russell latapy

[sauzee=legend]

Pat Stanton as manager with Paul Kane as assistant.

[TheGreenMan]

Whoever is next NEEDS to come in with a club philosophy that is driven from bottom - youngest age groups - up to the 1st team and take full control over all football styles and youth development. We have failed badly with this recently and any of our good youth players look stand outs until they arrive in the 1st team because they then play under guys like Butcher or Fenlon who are playing a style of results 1st, performance 2nd and a completely different philosophy from any of the youth teams. Our 1st team and manager shouldn't be isolated from our youth teams the way it currently is, it should be a continuation of the players development and they should come in knowing their job already - and in theory be playing with better players and therefore become better players themselves until they are sold on for profit, reinvest and repeat.

I'd rather take 2 years to come back to SPL and have a well drilled youthful Hibs side (with decent experienced guys here or there) playing an entertaining brand of football, than sign a team of any old SPL journeyman from Inverness/St Mirren etc playing hoofball and in 5 years time be back where we've been the past 5 years.

Now is the time to rebuild, we need a model throughout the club and the manager - and the next one after that and the one after that as well as each of our youth coaches and scouts should have to follow that model. I made this point to Petrie at one of the LWT meetings before Butcher was brought in that it should be the club that dictates to the coach - as much as is possible - obviously there are a set of scenarios where you have to adapt - but in the main to assist with bringing youth players into a successful 1st team. He gave the usual patronizing look of 'I'm listening to what you say but have no interest in taking any of it on board' and said that there are many conversations held during recruitment processes and it'd be difficult depending on manager demands - but this to me HAS to be how we proceed as a club.

[blaikie]

Jim Gannon ....

[Golden Bear]

James Mcdonaugh anyone? - does he deserve his chance giving the sterling work he's done with the youth teams and the pleasing manner which they play the beautiful game? I'd say he's got a head start on anyone else given the current state of the Club.

[nribs]

Gary McAllister

[Dan Sarf]

In Leeann's TV interview with GS, she said, "I've got good contacts." IMO, that signalled she already knows who she's going to bring in as Manager.

And all that evasive/diplomatic stuff about, "getting the right support staff in place," meant she'd already decided that TB was getting his jotters.

[Franck Stanton]

Could well be right

[Thecat23]

I honestly don't know why so many want Ian Murray. He's a young manager and believe me Hibs would be a massive step up from where he is. TB found it difficult to move from ICT to us so for me it has to be Stuart McCall.

Done it consistently with Well and his teams play good quick football.

[ferry hibby]

has Tommy Wright signed his new contract at St Johnstone yet - certainly seems to get the best out of some of the players and win a cup

[nribs]

I honestly don't know why so many want Ian Murray. He's a young manager and believe me Hibs would be a massive step up from where he is. TB found it difficult to move from ICT to us so for me it has to be Stuart McCall.

Done it consistently with Well and his teams play good quick football.could we realistically get McCall? Could we realistically get Murray? Not saying Murray is the answer but I would imagine it's more realistic?

[AlbertK86]

can't see MCCall coming.

Think Murray would do well but may be a bit early for him.

Coyle if he was interested would do for me but would like to see James McDonough involved seen as we are seemingly having a squad of one player for each position with a youth as back up

Doyle and McDonough for me

[West hamBERNIAN]

Don't agree. Not ready IMO. Proven manager needed.

Or we need to be lucky and unearth a gem like Mowbray.

Or just get mowbray

[Unseen work]

Peter Houston????

[hibby67]

Who's Next?

F@#k knows but someone that can get a team playing good football, can get the best out of youngsters and can unite the fans,

[Dashing Bob S]

Ian McParland will be offered the job.

This comes from sources close to me - the voices in my head after too much alcohol.

[blackpoolhibs]

We have appointed that many clowns recently, the only option is to get the best one now. Get Coco in, no expense should be spared.

[Dave-O]

This for me, it's too soon for nid, **** me we could end up ruining the guys career before the next agm, experience and contacts is what the next manager should have, cause there cannae be much money left the way we pay folk off. :rolleyes:

[ekhibee]

We have appointed that many clowns recently, the only option is to get the best one now. Get Coco in, no expense should be spared.
So who do you think should be the next manager then?

[andy1875]

Gary Locke.....

:greengrin

Stuart Baxter
Steve Clarke
Jose Antonio Reyes (player manager)

:taxi :greengrin

[GreenLake]

Rio Ferdinand player manager.

[Turkish Green]

Proven Experience v Future Potential

Personally I would like a young unproven manager with potential talent BUT is there anyone that fits the bill in such a short time span. So it will likely be an ex-manager currently without a club. Owen Coyle sounds good to me. Whatever, I hope they ignore the fans as they know nowt.

[Lucius Apuleius]

Somebody currently unemployed so no compensation to pay out. Tony M.

Don't think that should be a stipulation. If we have to pay comp to someone then so be it.

[jamieross]

James Mcdonaugh anyone? - does he deserve his chance giving the sterling work he's done with the youth teams and the pleasing manner which they play the beautiful game? I'd say he's got a head start on anyone else given the current state of the Club.

Would love to see James get it but it wont happen i dont think. Should be head of the youth academy though.

[cleanyman]

Dick Campbell.

[Scouse Hibee]

The people touting Murray probably wouldn't even think about him as the next manager if it wasn't for the Hibs connection, I would rather see him continue his education with a smaller club. Hopefully LD already has someone in mind.

[West hamBERNIAN]

Agreed. All the best to him but we've taken too many chances with managers.

[West hamBERNIAN]

Dick Campbell.

Surely not.?

[HibbyAndy]

Dick Campbell.

:hilarious

Aye barry

[greenpaper55]

What about "iv'e been places" Broon,

[Gordy M]

I think we are gonna have to 'take a punt' on a young up and coming manager, or an experienced manager who has been sacked or 'failed' at a previous club. I really dont know who would be best tbh.

[Sumner]

What about "iv'e been places" Broon,

.. Hell NO

[1987kev]

It's got to b someone that's going to make a statement to hearts and rangers that we are going for the league. Love Ian Murray as player captain off the club but the timing no right. I honestly can't see anyone who has manage in the epl coming to us. Somebody with experience and likes to play will do bobby McGee.

[joebakerforever]

It was reported previously that Stuart McCall commented on the crowd at Easter Road being on the home players back and he would not like to be the manager in such an environment.

Would he change his view if offered the job ?

[H13BYM]

Michael O'neil

[HibbyAndy]

Aye...Cause he is a better manager than anything we have hud in recent years.

They wouldnt boo his team

[blackpoolhibs]

So who do you think should be the next manager then?

Pay me the salary plus pension benefits Petrie gets, plus throw in a nice car, and i will give you my thoughts.

[21.05.2016]

As I mentioned before, don't think Ian Murray is experienced enough to come to hibs as manager atm. We need an experienced manager to handle the pressure at ER.

[nribs]

Pay me the salary plus pension benefits Petrie gets, plus throw in a nice car, and i will give you my thoughts.

So until then we will have no more of your thoughts? ;)

[blackpoolhibs]

So until then we will have no more of your thoughts? ;)

Aye because everyone who post on here is employed by Hibs, paid a good wage and knows all about what it would cost to bring a new manager in, and who would be interested or indeed available? :faf:

[bingo70]

As I mentioned before, don't think Ian Murray is experienced enough to come to hibs as manager atm. We need an experienced manager to handle the pressure at ER.

Funny how Barcelona, Celtic, the rangers, Swansea, Norwich, hearts and many other clubs have promoted inexperienced people from within their ranks but hibs need an experienced manager to handle the pressure.

:aok:

:not worth

[Matt92]

We need someone who will galvanise the club. The new manager needs to be a solid and passionate figurehead who will bring every last one of us in behind our team to create a siege mentality in this league. Every team will want our scalp whilst Hearts and Rangers will have a punishment redemption agenda so we need to go into this league with no prisoners, all guns not only on show but firing.

We need to show we mean business, so we need a fighter. Ian Murray for me.

[erskine-hibby]

Don't know, but they will have to be experienced, have a good record of developing a squad and takes no nonsense from players. This, of course, is going to cost. Plus, any manager worth their salt is going to ask "what have I got/going to get to play with?" A quarter of soor plooms and a bag of crisps isn't going to cut it.

[eastmainsmsh]

Just saw range rover coming out of east mains silver with rtp on a reg there was a big silver new BMW Jeep as well lol wonder who it could be ? Rodders ?

[weonlywon6-2]

McCall is being linked and knows LD.

My daughter has told me we have made an approach to Motherwell for stuart mccall ,i have no idea how she knows though !!!



Ps -i think twitter might have something to do with it !

Neil Lennon. He would get a challenge like her craves, both Rangers and Hearts fans despise the man and he would take no nonsense in the changing room. No brainer! What's he up to?

Don't see why not the coverage of allsvenskan is non existent he would at least have more exposure in Scotland also be in a lower tax bracket in scotland ;-) the money in pro football in Sweden isn't much greater than scotland in relative terms

[pontius pilate]

I would like the club to think out with the box have a look at Europe or even sth america

[hibeesam]

There is only one man for this job paulo di canio

Eh ? :confused:

[Unseen work]

no chance mccoll would come imo. The reasons for me is;

1- He will see what happened with butcher, massive success at caley and terrible at hibs then sacked after 6 months
2- Very good squad at motherwell and are in europe
3- Has more ambition and his next move will be in england

Just because dempster worked with him at motherwell doesnt mean he would take the job

we can all pray though :greengrin

All in your opinion tho ?

I think he'd come

[Waxy]

Whoever it's going to be i hope they're here by next week.Much work to be done.

[Callum_62]

Would love it to be McCall out of all the usuals quoted

Always liked him as a manager, and plays football the right way

Would definately get the feel good factor back

Murray - id be slightly worried its too soon for him....and I dont see what the fasination is to have a 'Hibs connection'

he would pull all the fans together though

Apart from that, no one else I can think of excites

[erskine-hibby]

Is McCall not a hun?
Just waiting for the call from castle grey skull.





Just thought I'd get that in before anyone else.

[ekhibee]

Aye because everyone who post on here is employed by Hibs, paid a good wage and knows all about what it would cost to bring a new manager in, and who would be interested or indeed available? :faf:

You've still not given a name. Strange, you were at the forefront of wanting Butcher out but you don't have any idea who you want to replace him? No Stage 2 for you then.

[tjay]

What worries me is the time it will take and who's looking after the young talent we have. Mikey Stewart made a hell of a lot of sense tonight and if I was Leanne I would get Boozy in to work with the remnants to build up the confidence and get them smiling again.
My son is a student coach and has nothing but high praise for the man and his modern approach .
we need to nurture the talent we have left

[NOLA]

Nevio Scala put his name forward yet?

[blackpoolhibs]

You've still not given a name. Strange, you were at the forefront of wanting Butcher out but you don't have any idea who you want to replace him? No Stage 2 for you then.

When i am paid enough money like Petrie is to make an informed opinion taking in all the relevant details, then i'd give you my opinion.

FWIW, i have no names but i'd go for the best available foreign coach we could afford, and only bring in foreign player.

This country has a huge lack of quality players who lack technique strength and also lack the professionalism of their foreign counterparts.

[Unseen work]

All in your opinion tho ?

I think he'd come


yes as i said all imo, for me if i was him i wouldnt go anywhere near us

[Itsnoteasy]

Jackie Mcnamara jnr

[IberianHibernian]

Whoever it's going to be i hope they're here by next week.Much work to be done.Disagree . League doesn`t start for another 2 months so we should use time to look for best candidate . Will be disappointed if we appoint someone in next week or so and hope we wait till July at least .

[The_Horde]

Jackie Mcnamara jnr

Would be fantastic.

Won't happen though.

[nribs]

Disagree . League doesn`t start for another 2 months so we should use time to look for best candidate . Will be disappointed if we appoint someone in next week or so and hope we wait till July at least .the Diddy cup is the end of July? When is the opening game of the season?

[ionahibby]

Disagree . League doesn`t start for another 2 months so we should use time to look for best candidate . Will be disappointed if we appoint someone in next week or so and hope we wait till July at least .

July is leaving it far too late considering pre season friendlies will be 2nd or 3rd week in July. We need a manager in pronto to start player signings so we actually have a team to put on park.

[Cameron1875]

Johan Mjallby
Billy Mckinlay (ex Fulham assistant)
Gary McAllister

Any of those 3 could be a shout?

[Hibeesmad]

Not sure if he's already been mentioned but Steve Lomas?

[The Pointer]

Whoever gets the job, I hope they immediately instal a culture of mature professionalism amongst the players, which has been pretty lacking in recent years with them seemingly more interested in getting pictured in George Street than a football pitch. Time Hibs' footballing culture moved into the 21st century.

[Criswell]

Is Gazza out of Re-Hab yet? I am sure he could do a good job for us.

[Greencore]

Riordan and o'connor player managers....

Seriously though?

No idea, I think we won't go for an experienced scottish manager though.

[ads913]

Used to like Billy Davies but he seemed to have messed up big time in his last venture at Notts Forrest. Maybe we need to look at the spanish coaching or get Tony Mowbray back.

[Captain Trips]

He may or may not work at Celtic but I think the guy they brought in will do well, I would be looking at some of the other managers in that league along with Sweden etc. There are some managers over there with good experience.

[JimBHibees]

I think it would be good to look outside the box IMO. Possibly along the lines of who Celtic have just brought in a young progressive Scandinavian coach. I know they were playing Hibs but if we had a team of young talented players who played the way that Malmo played with pace and skill then that would imo be the sort of coach that we should be looking at.

If it was a Scottish or UK coach would be sounding out Steve Clarke as think he is a very good coach and may fancy a step back to make a step forward.

[edwards]

Jacjie Macnamara jnr and Mccoll both good but get the feeling it will be someone out of contract as we have not that long ago paid Inverness compensation and now have to pay Compo to Butcher and Malpas .

My Three

Owen Coyle [ needs to get back in ]

Paul Sturrock [ has regularly promoted teams and can surely do it for us.]

Alex Mcleish [ Again out of a job for to long and has had a good relationship with Petrie before ]

All out of contract and could possily do a job for Hibs.

Dannny Lennon also out ofcontract !!!!!!!

[Lago]

Thanks
Not sure if he's already been mentioned but Steve Lomas?

Now your just being silly

[bingo70]

I know he's just joined another championship club but I thought charltons appointment of that ac Milan youth coach was a bold move that I liked. Would be happy if we did similar.
