Next hibs manager

[Oranje39]

If we were choosing from that Ladbrokes list, I'm dreading next season now.

[Hibeesmad]

I spoke to Malky Mackay back around November. Had a great conversation with him about football. I also spoke to him about Hibs, told him I'm a Hibs fan in which he pointed out that his father in law and other members of his family are Hibs fans. I asked him about Stubbs etc and he explained how he was good mates with Stubbsy from the Celtic days etc. I then asked him tongue in cheek if he would possibly be next Hibs manager in which he replied "if the job was to become available- you never know, I'm looking for a job".

[Lester B]

Terry Butcher 14/1, WTF?

And Barry Ferguson at 10/1??? Who makes these up?????

[TAHibby]

I'll give folk odds of 140/1 for terry butcher to be next manager.... There is one chance and that's no chance

That lists the funniest thing ive seen for a while. Butcher and ferguson haha, atleast theve put a bit effort in thinking of they two amongst all the other predictable names

[Alex Trager]

Leeann's a smart cookie and will have doing her succession planning for some months now. I reckon the CV's landing on the door mat now are too late. She just needs to work out her criteria and bag the right candidate. Announcement within 48 hours?

This man gets it

[mjhibby]

There is no way Hibs have been sitting waiting on Stubbs to go, so Hibs will likely have been looking at possible people who may not have actually applied.

The whole point of succession planning is to be ready for exactly this scenario. Also had we not won the cup the review of the season last Thursday would have been a tricky one to say what Hibs were going to do never mind what Stubbs wanted. We'll find out soon enough if we were prepared or not. Manager needs to in place in 7 to 10 days with Europa league game only 44 days away. Was a wee bit miffed initially at Stubbs leaving so soon after the great day but now excited to see who we will get in.

[Purehibee_MYB]

I just hope Leann has something up her sleeve and it's someone no one has thought of because I'm not a big fan of any of the names mentioned...

They could put Alex Ferguson on there at 50/1 and you can be sure someone would put money on him, the bookies make a tidy wee sum on these kind of markets. There's always one as they say, and it costs them nothing to make up a list.

[Andy74]

I'm not bothered any more about being a fan or not. No one knows how well any given manager will do regardless of their background. Talking a good game has also proven to matter little.

The key thing is whoever it is gets our backing for an important season whether we fancied them or not.

[Edinburgher]

Billy Stark?

[coldingham hibs]

Probably already mentioned but what about Duncan Ferguson.

[jonny_hfc]

Gutted that he's away, feel he still had unfinished business regardless of the cup win and thought he would have seen it through to finish the job and get us up. Eternally grateful for what he has achieved with us, but disappointed he didn't give it another year at least

[Scouse Hibee]

Hope it's like the Stubbs appointment,no one had a clue until he was announced and no one predicted it would be him.

[Andy74]

Thought Eric Black might have made it onto the betting.

He might have seen the poll on here to sack him after the Falkirk game, who knows. As others have said he was only 10 minutes away from being classed as a dud by quite a few on here.

He would help us hammer out the top spot. Not my favourite character but he would definitely get us up

[The Ferryman]

Although he has just been appointed to Dundee United as Manager, I would throw the name of Ray Mackinnon in to the ring. He did well with Brechin and Raith Rovers whilst working with very ordinary players and in each case making good teams of them. There was also considerable experience gained whilst in assisting to set up the Scottish youth set up. He is also articulate whether in dealing with players or senior management and is his own man with good ambitions
Surely better than some of those already mentioned in the Forum

[Pretty Boy]

Brian Reid of Stranraer is quoted in the betting. Could be an interesting outsider.

I initially confused him with Billy Reid ex of Hamilton, when I googled him a name caught my eye. Graham Potter of Ostersunds in Sweden. 2 successive promotions and now in the Swedish Premier League. I've no idea how much money is kicking about in Swedish football, probably a lot more than Scotland judging by the Malmo side we faced, but I wonder if he could be tempted back to the UK.

[lucky]

Steve Evans just be asked about the Hibs job on Sky. He never ruled it out.

[weststandhibby]

Steve Evans on SSN - just been sacked and Jim Whine asks him if he fancied the Hibs job!!

[3pm]

Steve Evans appears to have declared some interest on Sky Sports News. I think he did anyway.

[B.H.F.C]

Steve Evans just been asked on Sky Sports if he'd like to come back to Scotland. Said he's not putting himself forward for it as Alan Stubbs is still in the job. But went on to talk about how good he is at getting teams promoted.

Not a chance. Can you imagine the compensation that would have to be paid?

[bingo70]

Lot of people suggesting managers.

It's a head coach we're looking for, sure it's a pretty subtle difference but it's a difference none the less.

I don't think it'll be any of the names mentioned so far.

Might not be that far fetched really. Back living in Scotland and the Celtic job is gone. I'm sure he was interviewed for it a few years ago, before he even went back to Celtic as a coach I think.

His shenanigans got Boston relegated a good few divisions nearly all in one go. I want him nowhere near Hibs and got to say for the first time ever I'd have a job supporting him if he appeared at ER.

No contact made to anyone at Stranraer. So unlikely at this stage. I've just asked their chairman

[gaz1875]

Strange how it always seems to be Hibs managers that are head hunted by other clubs. Take Neilson at the tramps, straight promotion and 3rd in the SPL and not a bit of interest :confused:

They've obviously got inside info on our legendary pie problems and Terry the Butcher could be the answer, hopefully the ****** are not looking in and the the rangers don't "swoop" for him first.

[FifeHibs]

Have you ever listened to Steve Evans being interviewed, no offence to yogi but he makes Hughes sound like a Cambridge graduate

[FifeHibs]

Rather have Di Canio going nuts than Steve Evans

[yekimevol]

Heres my wish list for the next gaffer.

1) Owen Coyle, did a really good job at St Johnstone, Burnley and Bolton until there financial issues hit but then went to a wigan team in crisis and recently left dallas due to missing his family back in the UK. All in all not a shocking record.

2) Stewart Mccall, did a very good job with motherwell for the most part and then got a shocking rangers team to start playing football which when you think about the state of them when we hammered them 4-0 is no short feat.

3) Steven Clarke, managed at a very high level under some great managers enough said to me.

4) Malkey Mckay, a tad controversial due to his known issue that he had but the English FA did not charge him with anything. But once again bar another not to great spell at wigan he had a good record with premier league teams wanting him.

5) Paul Dickvo, done a reasonable job with a cash scrapped Oldham team attempting to play decent football and a spell at Doncaster which wasn't great but it was a team in crisis and a hard job for anyone.

6) Ian Murray with boozy and Director of football. Many people wont agree but I trust Ian with the job so long that he has help. Ian walked into a club in crisis at St Mirren and done it without any of his own people with neither boozy nor Jack Ross at his side. But he did do a good job at semi pro team Dumbarton and with the right people I think he could replicate that at hibs. An old head like Strachan as director of football and Boozy as his assistant would do it for me.

Is their a book? If so who's on it?

Its coz everyone knows Robbies a jobby.

[Thecat23]

Steve Evens is *****. I'd also put good money on Leeann not even considering him for Hibs never mind him getting the job.

[Topographic Hibby]

Alan Johnston from The Pars.

Ex Jambo and old-co Gers, but a decent managerial record. Killie record is little iffy, but you can't knock Dunfermlines record this year. Who, BTW, are now competing with us for promotion.

Doubt he'd be as big a bomb-scare as some of the names on here............

[kaimendhibs]

At the risk of upsetting the pars, how about Allan Johnston? Ticks the boxes in the lower leagues

[Aldo]

He would help us hammer out the top spot. Not my favourite character but he would definitely get us up

Think he would do an excellent job Colr but it won't be him!!

Would definitely do a job though!

[The_Horde]

I don't think being a nice guy is top of the list of things to care about now. Getting the job done is the main thing.

I think it's crucial that the players, particularly at bigger scottish clubs like us, like the manager and want to play for him. Half the battle. Stubbs, Mowbray, Mcleish.. all had that in common.

Are they? the season hasn't started yet :confused:. FWIW I don't think they'll be anywhere near challenging at the top.

I like McCall but the Hun will be looking for a new manager approx Sep/Oct due to still waiting on their first points in the SPL - McCall would be off !

That comes under getting the job done. Whether the fans consider the manager to be nice or articulate or whatever makes no odds.

[essexhibee]

Dempster would never appoint Steve Evans. Would be amazed.

[Dublin07]

My Celtic supporting mate told me tonight he heard from two different folk that Owen Coyle would be our new manager. He said one of them is normally a decent contact.
I would take that but it's probably a load of pish.

[bingo70]

Any way of getting a list of current English premiership under 21 coaches? IMO our next manager will be on that list.

Eddie May will pick up the reigns for the time being. Dempster and Craig will be have to get their fingers out sharpish.

Miserable git, which is strange considering what a happy wee soul his dad always seems to be. I wouldn't exactly be very excited if it was him and I have a low opinion of managers who have a slice of transfer fees written into their contracts .... in what universe is that not a conflict of interest, I'm frankly astonished any club would entertain such a notion ... I would be utterly amazed if Hibs did and I'd be wondering if Leeann had lost the plot.

Not for me.

[LustForLeith]

Hibs are in a difficult position. if we go for a young manager and they prove to be any good they'll be off. Go for an older, experienced manager then there's a chance his reputation and confidence will already be dented and he might not have the hunger to succeed.

Anyway, there's my pessimistic view! Just hope the appointment is right and gets us out of the Championship, building on the momentum of the cup win.

[TAHibby]

Steve Evans just be asked about the Hibs job on Sky. He never ruled it out.

[LancashireHibby]

Having had a couple of seasons watching Lennon at Bolton, no thanks. Regardless of the financial limitations, he used to pick his team and formation out of a bingo machine and had a huge struggle to motivate or control his players.

[high bee]

Have the bookies been reading Hibs net? They've got Cathro, Kevin Thomson, Boozy, Mark Venus, Jackie MacNamara, Dickov, O'Neill, Houston, McLeish etc

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

I'd always remained hopeful Stubbsy would reject the move.

Now that he's gone I'm not entirely sure what our next move should be? The appointment of Stubbsy was a stroke of genius... can that be replicated again? I have my worries

Stuart McCall talks a good game on BT and seemed to figure out how to play against us so could maybe turn that around? I've always liked Owen Coyle though. Would be happy if we went for him. What about giving Ryan Giggs his chance?

If we go old school then my preference would be Billy Davies

[Hibbyradge]

Jackie McNamara would be my choice :flag:

You know he is the manager of York and they got relegated out of the league?

He also started the rot at Tannadice before getting the bullet.

[FitbaFolkKen]

A lot of the bookies figures will be based on what we have been posting, Ian Cathro at 16's on Skybet for example and he has had a couple of mentions on here.

I would expect the odds to give a better indication if we haven't appointed anyone in the next 48-72 hours.

[LustForLeith]

Whats Billy Davies up to just now?

If, hand twisted behind my back, I had to have a look at a manager operating in the lower leagues of Scotland, Stevie Aitken at Dumbarton would be the one. Did really well with Stranraer and not too bad at Dumbarton. But I think we should be looking at a higher caliber of manager.

[Hibbyradge]

Plus he must have great contacts down south with players on their books who could win the league next season. Not completely without merit, that's for sure.

He applied for the Celtic job.

[Nutmegged]

I can actually see Lennon being interested in this job, I saw someone mention it on Twitter earlier and immediately dismissed it but the more I thought about it and the more I read (think it was @AgentScotland) the more I genuinely grew into the idea.

He's a Title winning and Cup winning manager in Scotland, has managed in the Champions League very recently and is desperate to get back into management, add that to the fact he's back living in Scotland again and due to some bad press off the field wont likely be on many English Championship clubs radar in the near future then there doesn't seem appear to be much options for him at present.

I think Hibs could be a genuine challenge to Lennon, having been in this Division for two years now I think getting us up would be enticing, particularly if we could hold onto our better players.

I don't think he'd suffer from the same prolonged campaign of sectarian bile Stubbs had to contend with in the short term at least given we're not in the same Division as Sevco for now.

[Super_JMcGinn]

im sorry i was of the opinion the board sold all their good players and left him with n resourses to work with... i could be wrong.. usually am. and he took over York when it was a thankless task already.. again im probably wrong on that too

[OsloHibs]

The bookies list is very worrying... Some of the names on there make me weep.

[HoboHarry]

The bookies list is very worrying... Some of the names on there make me weep.
They don't have an earthly clue at this point who LD has in mind. The threads on this in general have been a hoot - barely an ounce of imagination, just the same old tired names trotted out. I have complete confidence that she will spring another rabbit out of the hat......

[Matty_Jack04]

I'm of the thinking the bookies list so far doesn't make for good reading, I'm not sure about Lennon it's all well and good being Celtic manager they've got money to throw about look at how many poor signings he made there he won't get that chance with us just to stick the rubbish ones in the stand, he is living in Glasgow at the moment I've saw him a few times in the hotel in my area, I'd see if we could
Get delia to listen to come and listen to us I think Celtic never gave him a chance appointing his back room team for him and different ideas from a young foreign coach could help us move on, I just hope behind the scenes LD etc have been aware of what's going on so we can act quickly

[Beefster]

The bookies list is very worrying... Some of the names on there make me weep.

No

Jackie Mac was doing a great job until Thomson started selling their best players, why he took that York job is beyond me. He also brought in and brought through some great young players on the cheap and sold them for millions. I would not be upset if we went for him.

[Brooster]

I cant help thinking back to the shocking quality of football Yogi had ICT playing in the recent cup ties against us.....not to mention his botched attempt the last time he was manager of Hibs. No thanks.

When henrilk Larrson was linked with the Celtic job, was that just because of his name or is he doing a good job at his club in Sweden?

I am going to ask if i can get a price on Steve Lomas being the new manager, Good job at Stj, never quite worked out for him down south think Hibs would be a good challenge for him to get this teeth into.

[Hamish]

Maybe it's the fine print concerning the image rights that have stopped LD announcing the new coach.

[Jones28]

This, but does anyone see Lennon coming to us?

I don't see why not to be fair. A big club with a decent nucleus of a squad. His Celtic contacts could see us going a long way to getting Henderson back either on loan or a longer term deal.

He'd be an exciting appointment that's for sure and he wouldn't be subjected to half as much of the bile he got at Celtic.

Yes - absolutely no inside knowledge but it just seemed to fit the Stubbs type profile, and also he seems to be out of contract (no pay off). I cam across it as we (Hearts) seem to have signed their left back

Steve Lomas?

Nope last managed Millwall in 2013 after albeit a short time.

[Paloschi]

Cant believe anyone would want Hughes back. He did well in his first season when he had the likes of Bamba, Zemmama, Stokes and Riordan but he replaced them with the likes of Gow, Duffy and Trakys. He had a nightmare in the end and started the decline. The 6-6 game sums up his time as Manager.

[Paloschi]

Steve Lomas?

I really really hope not

[The Leith Dutch]

he wouldn't be subjected to half as much of the bile he got at Celtic.

Given that he was assaulted by a supporter of our arch rivals and the fact that we're doing a frankly delightful job in getting The Rangers to hate us that may not be a given :greengrin

[GloryGlory]

I really really hope not

Me neither. He did a good job with the Saintees for a wee while, but not much before or since. Been out of football for a while, which to my mind always speaks volumes.

[Moulin Yarns]

I work in Perth, and the answer is not for me. Non football reasons.

[ShadesLongThrow]

She is speaking to two people today.

Andy Goram?

[Caversham Green]

what we need is a manager like stubbs and Mowbray cutting their teeth in the 21s in the english league. .no thanks to Yogi tried and failed.

If we are going down that route I'd put forward Martin Kuhl as a candidate. Same job at Reading as Stubbs had at Everton and very highly regarded. He was caretaker here for the few weeks between Clarke and McDermott and might be up for the permanent post this time, but given the current shambles at the Madejski could well be looking elsewhere.

Of the other Reading connections:

Nigel Adkins - A bit tippy-tappy but took Southampton up to the Premiership. His relentless positivity gets a bit grating.
Steve Clarke - Definite no from me. The Hibs job is probably 'beneath him' in any case.
Brian McDermott - If we got the one that took over from Rodgers I'd be delighted but his latest stint was disappointing - maybe 5 months wasn't really enough given everything else that's been going on. Of the three I think he'd be most likely to take the Hibs job.

[Thecat23]

Andy Goram?

That made me chuckle 😁

yogi slowly being backed in to fav. 6/4 - still can't see it. Only positive is he's free but Leeann sounds quite articulate, can't imagine how their catch ups would go....

Neil Warnock? Applied for Inverness and Aberdeen jobs before, loves Scotland and Edinburgh.

Done a remarkable job at Rotherham last season to keep them up.

[Thecat23]

Because he doesn't fit from what Leeann said after we appointed Stubbs. Unless she's changed her mind I don't think it will be any of the ones been mentioned at all.

I agree. Our 2 best managers in recent years (IMO) Stubbs & Mowbray, both came out of left field. Both also shared certain characteristics such as having prior experience of the Scottish game & having a non managerial ( coaching ) role at a respected English club & being popular with management & staff. For those reasons I think Gary Holt is an excellent shout & fits our profile. Mind you there's a young man who knows ER inside out, was at Cup Final with his family supporting Hibs & is doing a great job at possibly our biggest rival next season.

[500miles]

I honestly can't see why we'd go back the way and appoint John Hughes. As shown in our collapse during his tenure he was out of his depth.

He's a much more experienced manager, with a higher level of success and has actually won things. He improved ICT when everyone only predicted inevitable decline, has had teams sold out from under him, and appears to now be able to keep a professional distance from his players.

I think timing is key for managerial appointments, and with George Craig as DOF and our head coach based system, Yogi's sport science led, team spirited style would be effective.

[The goalie]

How about...........James McDonaugh ?

[sydneyhibee]

Did Leeann not empty him when she 1st joined

Who?

[brog]

Did Leeann not empty him when she 1st joined

No, the restructuring at the club which brought in George Craig etc meant he was originally offered his job on different terms. I don't want to go into personal details. By the time we got our act together & came back with a better offer he had accepted the outside job.

[brog]

Who?

See post above yours.

[pacoluna]

No Thanks - as much as he was praised for his role with the youth team, none of them actually made it.

[silverhibee]

Because he doesn't fit from what Leeann said after we appointed Stubbs. Unless she's changed her mind I don't think it will be any of the ones been mentioned at all.

With you on this, Leeann has had a few weeks to look at who is available for the job, I think she will go for a young coach/manager who has already managed a team for a few seasons and is looking to move on "just like Stubbs" wouldn't surprise me if we looked abroad for our next manager.

But I would say Owen Coyle may be in with a shout.

James McD was with PH from the age of 16 & oversaw JC's time in the Development team after his release from Yams. Do we give credit for JC's emergence to Yams? I'm not advocating J McD for manager but it's churlish & inaccurate to try & airbrush the good work he did from our history.

[Skåne Hibs]

When henrilk Larrson was linked with the Celtic job, was that just because of his name or is he doing a good job at his club in Sweden?

Because of his name. IMO very average as a manager

He's managed Landskrona, Falkenburg and now Helsingborg.
He was awful for Landskrona at the end of his stay. Good for Falkenburg and average so far at Helsingborg.

He wouldn't come to us and I don't think I'd want him. When things went south at Landskrona (small club, small budget) he had no answers.

I think there has been some interesting names mentioned on here, but I do not want Yogi back.
Loved him as a player, but he was out his depth as a Manager.

I also hope Leeann remembers the Fenlon effect if they're considering taking a risk with anyone unproven in uk Football.

[Bad Martini]

Maybe Hanlon, I wouldn't put Cummings emergence down to McDonaugh.

Really?

So he was scoring for fun in that team, played in position and scoring some absolute rakers (I seen many games myself). He was improving and that wasn't down to the help of the manager?

I recall being at Livingston one night when Fenlon was sat behind the goals with the whole stand to himself "watching"....it took him months after that to play Cummings BTW, depite Jason scoring a pile that night including one of the best overhead kicks I have ever seen anyone score at any level, from around 18 yards....unstoppable.

All that down to who then? Hearts who threw him aside? Hutchie Vale who he left long before to go to Hearts? His PE teacher? You can go back as far as you like but the team he done well with and thus broke into the Hibs team was the team McDonaugh was running.

Note: that's only to discuss the Cummings point. I DONT think McDonaugh is anywhere near the right person for the job. Im ****ed if I know who is a) available b) up to it c) not an ex-hun/yam/etc. I DO know ex-players and favourites are unlikely to be the answer. Or Butcher!

It has to be said, Scott Gemmill ticks most of the boxes in the Dempster template: articulate, ambitious guy with a strong background in coaching focussed on youth development, looking for his first major role in charge of a club. Pretty much where Stubbs was 2 years ago.

Don't think it would be wise to give me the Hibs job - I think the pitchfork brigade would be on the march on the first day. Just thought he had an interesting cv and the interview suggested he was articulate, intelligent and ambitious. Big risk though..

There used to be loads of betting stuff on Merseyside about managers. At one point when he was in charge of Liverpool Benitez was said to be leaving. Didn't turn up for training. All of a sudden a flurry of bets went on him being the next manager to leave until bookies stopped taking bets. Then people would lay him (snarf snarf) to be next manager to leave. Bentiez never left and those who laid him made a fortune. I think the reason he wasn't at training was he had a cold and was instructed to stay away. Same thing happened with Moyes at Everton at one point. Love a wee betting coup like that!

[QMU-1875]

Got a text from a mate that plays for Swansea (dont ask who he could get in trouble), there coach Dave Adams really popular with a lot of the players especially the younger lads has texted a few of them suggesting hes about to make a big move and finished it with that wee (NG) green and white flag. Screenshot was sent to me could be on his way up, interesting as would fit the Alan Stubbs "promising coach" type mould. Dont shoot the messenger just passing on info!

Harry Redknapp played the odds over his move from Portsmouth to Southampton too. His game was to deny, deny and then deny again until the odds lengthened enough, he then gave the nod to his chums who lumped quick cash on him to take it at which point he said 'Ok I'll take the job...' No wonder all the reporters love him!

Got a text from a mate that plays for Swansea (dont ask who he could get in trouble), there coach Dave Adams really popular with a lot of the players especially the younger lads has texted a few of them suggesting hes about to make a big move and finished it with that wee (NG) green and white flag. Screenshot was sent to me could be on his way up, interesting as would fit the Alan Stubbs "promising coach" type mould. Dont shoot the messenger just passing on info!

Certainly sounds the part - http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/unknown-swansea-city-coach-who-10669513
