Heckinbottom to be announced very soon.

[Brooster]

Possibly today.

[hibsbollah]

Or possibly tomorrow?

All this stressing about short term appointments and media speculation, I just don't get it.

Let the river of zenlike mindful contemplation wash over you and be at one with the present:flag:

I think they’ll wait for another 24 hours to let the last remnants of Appletonitis dissipate into the ether. It’ll also give a few more hours for Heckingbottomitis to infiltrate our senses so that when it’s announced at 5pm tomorrow, we’ll be saying we got the man we were after all the time.

Got yet another brilliant song. To the tune of Sing Hosanna.

Give me football on the deck, keep me scoring
Give me football on the deck I pray
Give me football on the deck, keep me scoring
Keep me scoring to the break of day

Heckingbottom, Heckingbottom
Heckingbottom leads the great hibees
Heckingbottom, Heckingbottom
Heckingbottom leads the great hibees

Underwhelmed :na na:

[The 90+2]

We’ve got Hecky, Ram your specky!

[Paisley Hibby]

Just noticed this, sorry if already pointed out. When Barnsley won the Football League Trophy in 2016, Heckingbottom was the manager. They beat Oxford United in the final who were managed by Michael Appleton...

[The 90+2]

Underwhelmed :na na:

Great signing in champ man. Didn’t get seem as if he was going bald for about 10 years? I wonder if he is now.

[SRHibs]

Oh Heckingbottom, oh he is so wonderful.

[Northernhibee]

He is Paul
Heckingbottom
His surname sounds like bum

[CapitalGreen]

Barnsley were in League 1 and Oxford were in League 2...

[Arch Stanton]

His name is too much like Hackenbush for me to take him seriously.

Are we sure he isn't a horse doctor?

[LancsHibs]

2016 Football League Trophy Final at Wembley Paul Heckingbottoms Barnsley beat Michael Appleton’s Oxford United 3-2:cup: GIRUY Appleton:na na:

[greenpaper55]

I wonder if he will sort out the throw ins !

[CockneyRebel]

Scans better than most of our previous manager names.

[CockneyRebel]

Heckingbottom you make the Hibs world go round

Make it Hibees and it scans better?

[Wilson]

That's why I've got a tenner on Mallan to win the kentucky derby.

[Hamish]

Would be the first manager in living memory if he did.

BTW it is throws-in.

A.Pedant.

[flash]

Barnsley were in League 1 and Oxford were in League 2...

How much did you have on Appleton?

[SquashedFrogg]

How much did you have on Appleton?

Lol

If he does then at least we know Ryan McGivern isn’t coming back.

[Speedway]

When he lays into Kamberi, that’ll be a Hecky-thump, right?

[FRes Hibbie]

His name starts with Heck,
The rest you'll have to check.
Don't mention Appleton,
Or he'll break your neck.

I personally don’t think the club should even interview folk with rotten names. We need a manager who has a good rhyming name so we can fit it into songs, even if he’s rubbish. You still need a chant, how can we possibly get Heckingbottom Heckingbottom GTF into a chant. Shouldn’t be allowed 😂

[andybev1]

STV news had someone outside either eastmains or easter road (where are these things usually finalised?) and he said it woud not be long until an announcement is made.

I think these deals are finalised in Petrie's shed. Often with a mug of home made cider.

One of my earliest memories of going to the football is my old boy moaning that we always struggle to keep the ball off our own throw. I've now been going to games for 28 years and he's still moaning about it!

Heckingbottom has plenty possible rhymes.Farce being the most obvious

Possibly today.

And you say it’s gonna happen now
But when exactly do you mean?
See I’ve already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

[Real Emerald]

Well I’ve sent a special request to Ed Sheeran and he can’t work Heckingbottom into any love songs. It’s a missed opportunity 😡

[goosefat]

Unlikely.

As I understand it, this is the reason for the contract stalling with Appleton

Appleton: I'll take the job but we need to sort this 'firing the ball at a players neck as hard as possible' throw in nonsense.

Petrie: No way. That's been our signature move since 1875 and it's what Hibs fans expect to see, week in week out.

Appleton: I'm walking away.

Petrie: Someone get the number for Heckingbottom out of the bucket.

I've just left East Mains. Rod came out main door and didn't give too much away. Hickenbottom etc left by side exit 20 mins after Sky Sports had left.

Based on that, It’s probably fair to say you’re not getting the job mate.

So LD’s in charge and Rod’s not involved these days then?

[Waxy]

At least we know we are a bit picky now.

[malcolm]

You’re maybe about to take a manager/coach job at a football club... so obviously you’d want to meet the chairman before you commit!

[stokesmessiah]

It's not happening tonight you wouldn't think?
