New manager odds

[truehibernian]

IF true it cannot come as any surprise to anybody on here

Makes me even more determined (and I've been placid) to get rid of Tom Farmer :agree:

[Finbar]

Hibs need to show a bit of ambition here. For years we've been signing average managers and players and hoping that they do better than expected. We have to get a good one this time, no mistakes.

[Keith_M]

Petrie will have his horribly arrogant mitts over the appointment......sadly I am hearing he is very much still pulling strings. I cannot stand the man now......he is the ruin of Hibernian FC :agree:


So you don't believe Dempster then?

it’ll be my recommendation (http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/spfl/leeann-dempster-responsibile-for-recruiting-boss-1-3444534)

When asked about Petrie, she said...

“I’ll be doing it myself, but I’ll maybe be asking another board member to attend [the interview] but if you want to ask the question ‘will that board member be Rod Petrie?’ the answer to that is ‘no’.

End of the week she hopes. That's good news. I'm convinced she's going to get the right guy in.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink!


That article seems to suggest they know more than Hibs.net about who is on the shortlist and will be interviewed. That can't be right, surely :confused:

I have not heard anything.

Neither have I really. Just wanted to join in.

Neil Aspin anyone?

[blackpoolhibs]

Me too. :greengrin

[s.a.m]

You're wrong. Only imminent signing is Matty Jack. Even he is ****ed off that no one has ever filled his role, so he's coming out of retirement to do it himself. :agree:

[rcarter1]

Would be delighted by this if true! The Dutch always seem to have a level headed intelligent approach to the game. His likely contacts would be a big bonus. Really would love this appointment...

Utter rubbish - how could you possibly "have heard"

Stop posting nonsense.

Trust Leanne to get the right manager and we move on

[lord bunberry]

Boy on the bounce seems to think we have made an official approach ith McCall.

Great just what I've always wanted, Kenny Black in the home dugout at er.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Great just what I've always wanted, Kenny Black in the home dugout at er.

What's wrong with him?

He was probably the biggest thug in the hearts team at that time, and that hearts team was filled with dirty hatchet men. I couldn't stand him back then and I still can't stand him now.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

I don't think there is much money being placed add to the fact no real string rumours hence no movement in the market.

I wonder if messageboard threads are where most string rumours originate from?

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

Black has been at Well since 2011, not St Johnstone?

Strangely enough I was out tonight and no one mentioned anything at all about the managerial situation which ties in with our suspicions.

[Green Man]

I heard something tonight. It had nothing to do with the new Hibs manager though.

[Golden Bear]

As far as I'm concerned the wall of silence is falling on deaf ears.

[Auckland Hibs]

Steven Pressley :agree:

FWIW I'd take him at ER ahead of many of the other names that have been banded around.

Seems to have done a pretty decent job so far down South on a very tight budget.

[Speedway]

I spoke with a scout of an English Championship club yesterday, he told me Coyle is not interested in the job.

Now that I do believe.


Rumour flying about Steven Pressley the boy Craig who just came in likes him. Good with young players ticks the boxes for what Hibs want

More chance of Reg Presley getting the job.

[hibs supporter]

Venus is now 4/5 and McCall is now 7/4 on sky bet Murray now 9/2

[Graham Law]

Fairly sure if someone goes and sticks a couple of hundred on yourself for the hibs job you would soon appear in the betting ? Very fickle market place and only takes small and or regular chain of bets to change the prices of the betting.

Not that I encourage you all do this as he will never get the job , but as an example if all you guys (and girls) with internet betting accounts (say 20 plus people) all went online and bet say 10 pound each on Nacho Novo at his current price of 25/1 he would drop to 4/1 or 5/1 for the job.

[Graham Law]

On the topic of betting did anyone ever take over the beat the bookie section when I left for OZ ?

Made you guys a few quid in my time doing that - maybe lost a bit as well mind :-)

[SeanWilson]

Been more money for McCall now.... hes back in to 7/4 and Venus out to 6/4 (skybet)

[silverhibee]

Go Dutch!...feel that Dutch coaching staff could at last make proper use of East mains !

[MrRobot]

Seeing all those pictures of JC has made me want him back haha

Would be ideal if we got JC as manager, Murray as assistant and Boozy as first team coach. Even Murray as manager, Collins as DOF and Boozy as assistant would be very promising.

[HappyAsHellas]

I've got a copy of a Hibs training video from last season. If I remember correctly it showed Collins trying to hit a coo on the erse with a shovel and missing.

[Lmc2105]

Sky Bet.

Mark Venus 6/4
Stuart McCall 7/4

He was 11/2 yesterday.

His odds have slashed massively the space of 24 hours.

[Bronson]

McCall the new favourite with skybet at 11/8. Venus 6/4, Murray 10/3.

Any of the 3 would be fine with me, McCall has done a terrific job at Motherwell and his relationship with Dempster makes him my personal pick.

[Lmc2105]

I have been informed from a very reliable source who asked IM directly yesterday that Hibs have not contacted him. Probably puts him out of the running

[Lmc2105]

In the last 24 hours at least yes a fair whack has been stuck on McCall

[Hibernia Na Eir]

McCall would be first choice for me.

[DC_Hibs]

Billy McKinlay is apparently interested in the role. Worth considering anyway.

[silverhibee]

You apply for the job not wait for the club to contact you.

[cleanyman]

You apply for the job not wait for the club to contact you.

Murray has a 2 year contract with Dumbarton.

Of course he wouldn't contact Hibs

[fatbloke]

I've got a copy of a Hibs training video from last season. If I remember correctly it showed Collins trying to hit a coo on the erse with a shovel and missing.

I will finish this for you shall I?

.....a shovel and missing on the three occasions he attempted it.

I've heard folk raving about him as a coach for years but I'm surprised he's not been given a chance anywhere yet?!

Well i hope it is!!!! Id quite like stubbs as the new manager. Someone a bit different, knows the scottish game, and if he is on martinez coaching staff then id imagine he likes to play football on the deck? Only my opinion.

[Paisley Hibby]

So we would need to pay compensation and would have less for playing budget. Can't get my head round why we would do that when there's loads of good guys we could get who are not in a job.

[bingo70]

How do you know we'd need to pay compensation?

I'd be surprised of Everton stood in his way of he got a chance to become a manager, especially fir what would be a small amount of money.

[WestCoastHibby]

Steve Clarke would be a great appointment IMO.

From a supporter view, I would love it to be Ian Murray with boozy as a coach or assistant.

My kind of shout. Whoever it is he should be given a one year rolling contract max, with BIG bonus and contract add ons should we return straight back up. Same for players a fair basic rate but enhanced "performance" related pay.

Get some competitive spirit back in the club.

[BoltonHibee]

So we would need to pay compensation and would have less for playing budget. Can't get my head round why we would do that when there's loads of good guys we could get who are not in a job.

I'm sure Everton would not be seeking compensation for Stubbs and would be easy to deal with.

[johnrebus]

So we would need to pay compensation and would have less for playing budget. Can't get my head round why we would do that when there's loads of good guys we could get who are not in a job.

Can't see him come here though, with a load of ***** players and low budget.

Not really got a load of ***** players, most have been freed. He'd be coming here with a clean slate abd a bigger budget than most teams in the league.

Stubbs? That's out of leftfield! I remember applauding him on when it was gis first appearance back from cancer. Celtic had that minging bumblebee top I'm sure.

[SteveHFC]

Uninspiring but happy to be proved wrong and will get behind him :agree:

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

He's always had a soft spot for us since he came on as a sub at ER after his spell out of the game due to his cancer. He got a great reception and he's made reference to it a couple of times in interviews and in his book

[bingo70]

Good point, wonder if he remembers the reception he got that day and plays a part in his thinking. Realise that's unlikely but I'd like to think he thinks well of us because of that day.

[Del Boy]

Speaking to him in next few days... This is going to run and run

If the story is true.I'm sure Hibs will know what compensation if any will be due. If this is the guy Hibs want LD has said the new manager has to show a desire to manage Hibs so if he does it could be quite straight forward.

[The_Horde]

Unless they've already had an application from him for the job and the permission is just to offer it to him?

Could be done and dusted by the end of the week.

[BOB MARLEYS DUG]

That would be interesting I think he's at Patrick just now?

Dundee Utd I think.

[hhibs]

[QUOTE=WestCoastHibby;4066862]My kind of shout. Whoever it is he should be given a one year rolling contract max, with BIG bonus and contract add ons should we return straight back up. Same for players a fair basic rate but enhanced "performance" related pay.

Get some competitive spirit back in the club.[/QUOT



Agreed ,this must be the way to go,must incentivise success and cut out failures.

[JimBHibees]

It's Stubbs! Bring on the big scouser to the Hibs :thumbsup:

Would it not be better if the players were able to understand what he said though. :greengrin

[JimBHibees]

How do you know we'd need to pay compensation?

I'd be surprised of Everton stood in his way of he got a chance to become a manager, especially fir what would be a small amount of money.

Sure they wouldnt as they would see it as him furthering his career.

[nribs]

Dundee Utd I think.

Correct not sure how I got that wrong :)

[Franck Stanton]

If it's Stubbs, fine, if it's Venus, fine, just get the finger out and make the appointment. I know it is a vital point in the development of the Club but every day a new name is added to the list and immediately becomes "favourite to land the gig". Just get it done and dusted and we can then move on to getting some players in .

[TRC]

I reackon that we will have a massive announcement with manager players sponsor, all rolled into one.

This appointing a manaqger thing is a bit of a hit or a miss every time....just have to wait and see how he goes.

Hopefully he'll do a Mowbray rather than a Butcher.

But whomever it is, we're getting closer and closer to kick off and we aint got a freckan team yet.....:rolleyes:r

Going through a selection process for a new manager. Interviewing them etc etc

Farcical why????

[Speedway]

Sacking a manager, receiving applicants, interviewing all parties interested personally, making up a short list, negotiating terms, coordinating an announcement - time elapsed so far to do this - one week.

Farcical right enough.

[BVB Hibs]

Even if it means not getting players in til late and a poor start to the season, I'd much rather get the managerial appointment spot on than worry about timing.

We could coax Sir Alex out of retirement and he too would get us relegated so until Petrie goes we will be going no where - have held off since speaking but the option of another sacrificial lamb 6 months down the line without Petrie going is inevitable

That is some haircut on Stubbs! Think i had a parting like that in about 1983.

But back on-topic, if it's him then that's ok by me. Young guy still, and despite the feelings of some Toffees, i think he may do a job for us.

[Spike Mandela]

Surprised bookies take bets on a new manager. It's not a sporting event it's a business decision taken by a company, surely the chance of info getting out to punters is real and inevitable.

[cat1875]

Great reception for Stubbs that day. The boy behind me followed it up with 'right, parties over stubsy.....someone kick that ***** in the ****ing baw' which, while harsh, was very funny.

He has watched the reserve league in England for the last few years so might not be a bad place to start

[IanM]

We could do a lot worse than Stubbs, just about anyone on the skybet list is unimaginitive, flaccid etc..

[jimmyboco1875]

95% of us including me wanted butcher last time, in my eyes he was the perfect guy for us, it didn't work out so who's to say a guy like stubbs working with a premiership under 21 team might just be what we actually need, fresh ideas and also a good knowledge of decent u21 players

I know but for me it's too unimaginative, Surly there is some gem from over sees we can find who would bring new ideas, a new flavor rather than another English defender. Let's just give the job back to Terry.

Another English defender takes charge, I want more for the club than that. However, If he comes let's hope he's fantastic.

Like for like? One experienced manager with scottish football background against and EPL coach.

Unimaginative? He didn't appear on any forum suggestions, bookies list or paper gossip until thr mail article saying we wanted talks. It's hardly been an obvious choice.

[Lewis77]

That's the point, I can't give you the name of some little known South American gem of a manager because I am just a fan and it's not my job to find one. As a fan I entrust the running of my club to those who are supposed to know what they're doing, who have expertise. The fact that I feasibly could come up with a name like Alan Stubbs is the worrying thing.

I am just a touch gutted because I wanted to be excited by the new manager and Alan Stubbs just doesn't do it for me.

If he gets the job I hope he is a great.

I would of gone all out to get Rene Meulensteen. Dream bigger than Alan Stubbs.
