Ian Murray Next Manager

[ColintonHibs]

Heard it here 1st

[HibeeHibernian4]

That would be a ****ing disaster if it were true, fortunately it’s not.

[Steve20]

Absolutely no chance.

The club would just be driving fans away. Replacing a terrible manager with another one.

[bingo70]

I don’t think this is true for a second but our of curiosity how is he getting on at Airdrie?

[PaulSmith]

Their fans want him out.

[Hiber-nation]

Their fans want him out.

That's surprising, they are doing well, in the play off places although their home record is poor.

Anyway the OP is obviously slavering.

[WhileTheChief..]

It might be nonsense but I fear it’s the type of appointment we’ll go for next.

[Pretty Boy]

I think I'd rather keep Heckingbottom.

[WellingtonHibby]

Lol

[MacGruber]

Heard it here 1st

Thanks Colinton - that cheered me up a bit. Ian Murray lol. Good one🤣

[H18 SFR]

I commented on another thread about Ian Murray last night after hearing (apparently originating from a friend of his) that he could be part of a new management team as an assistant.

[steakbake]

I’d sooner have Ian Murray the MP

[judas]

That’s enough now Ian.

[The Captain....]

A boy in my work is a season ticket holder at Airdrie and my impression is that they are as bored watching their team under Murray as we are under Hecky.

Think I will say this on every manager thread ask Gordon Strachan see if he is daft enough to take on the job.:agree:

Exactly. People seem to think that getting rid of the manager will make everything rosy. It’s a massive gamble - how many managers have Hibs had that have been a success? Nothing is guaranteed.

That’s to do with the recruitment of a new manager, not the decision to get rid.

The risk in keeping this guy is greater than the risk of getting rid.

So getting a Butcher, Calderwood, Fenlon, Blackley, Auld, Stanton would be good? These guys were all expected to be great appointments.......

[BILLYHIBS]

I have said on other threads it would be good to have a Manager and players on board that get HIBS and the fact that we are not just another team and that we do not sit in at ER and s##t it off the Uglies and always play with one upfront home or away and are scared to enter the final third and do not know what to do if heaven help we actually take the lead in a game and cannot see a game out

Sort it HIBS or the fans will leave in droves

The current Manager has no interaction with the fans whatsoever

No of course it wouldn’t. We could always keep Heckingbotton given the positive results he getting eh?

[Allant1981]

A friends son plays for airdrie and going by what they say murray is no where near ready or good enough to manage hibs

[Yorkshire HFC]

No of course it wouldn’t. We could always keep Heckingbotton given the positive results he getting eh?

All I’m saying is there’s no guarantee that a new manager will be any better. Maybe being a football manager isn’t as easy as we think?

I don’t think it is an easy job but it’s their chosen profession so it’s up to them to be competent at it.

We can’t keep one guy for fear of the next guy being worse. What if the next guy turns out to be good and have the success of a Lennon or Stubbs?

I know - but who is the next guy?

If Heckingbottom was deemed the best option 6 months ago, then do we go for the person who was behind him in the queue? Or has Klopp become available?

I don’t know who the next guy is, but I don’t get paid a six figure salary to decide these things.

The club apparently succession plan so I’m sure they will be well down the line of sorting this mess. Or will they?

Regardless, we need to bin the current manager. We’re in an absolutely terrible state. And it’s only going to get worse.

Would rather have Duncan Murray than Paul Heckingbottom

I could see Ian Murray in the management team but not as the boss

[Eyrie]

Exactly. People seem to think that getting rid of the manager will make everything rosy. It’s a massive gamble - how many managers have Hibs had that have been a success? Nothing is guaranteed.

Alternatively, how many managers have taken us backwards as quickly as Heckingbottom?

[greenflyer]

Ian Murray and Jack Ross were together at Dumbarton for a while.

Its nonsense, get in people who are good. Ex affiliation to Hibs should never be a pre requisite

Good shout. Think Murray was manager and Ross was assistant at the time.

What makes anyone think Ian Murray will change our current predicament ? Dosent fill me with any confidence what's so ever. Even quicker route to the Championship :rolleyes:

[H18 SFR]

That's exactly what I heard, done coaching badges together etc.

[MWHIBBIES]

Didn't here it here first, been linked before. It was based on nothing and was never going to happen then as well.

[silverhibee]

Wouldn't surprise me at all.

[Danderhall Hibs]

Is this the MP we’re talking about?

[emerald green]

Any managerial appointment carries an element of risk.

However, the current head coach at Hibs has been a failure, and it's time to appoint someone else who can steady the ship, so to speak, and keep Hibs from falling into the Championship.

[AlbertK86]

Jack Ross was Murray’s assistant at Dumbarton and by all accounts Ross was the one that made the team tick.

When he left Dumbarton struggled as has Murray’s managerial career ever since.

Could see Ross bringing him as an assistant if he replaces Hecky

You don’t have to hear that one as it actually happened. It’s on Wiki and everything.

In which case, are you in any position to say whether the current manager should stay?

As you say, you don't get paid to decide these things.

He didn’t struggle at all. That’s what got him the St Mirren job. Ross with Nid would a great appointment.

Of course I’m in a position to say he shouldn't be there, there’s plenty evidence to support that judgement isn’t there?

I would say, in this case, even his mother wouldn't say he should be given more time.

I see where you are coming from. Fans are entitled to judge results, and performance, and demand a change.

Fan power choosing a manager is rarely any good. We need look no further than Butcher.

Strachan with Boozy and Murray 🤞

[madhatter]

Strachan with Boozy and Murray 🤞

Fans always seem to have this fascination with ex-players...never understood it. Unless they are good enough then absolutely no thanks. Talk of Strachan with Gray and McGregor as assistants as well. Ian Murray...absolute madness. New owner wants to make us more global and to grow the club from what I can tell. Having Strachan (guy who essentially said he had sort of had enough of management) does not do that.

We may need a short term thing until the end of the season but even that shouldn’t be a “has he played for Hibs or Celtic?” thing.

[Weegreenman]

No thanks!

[IberianHibernian]

When possible new managers are discussed , names of 3 ex St Mirren managers come up . Stubbs , Ross and now Murray . Stubbs and Murray were failures in Paisley and Ross was after leaving St M . If talking of ex St Mirren managers would Danny Lennon not be a better choice ? Won LC with St Mirren playing good football , ex Hibby , lots of experience and would be cheap ( doubt we could afford an expensive manager after compensating present management team ) .

Yes, an ex-Hibs player currently managing at a much lower level is the answer for us. In fairness to the club, the way our fans look for new managers is probably as ambitious as the club is perceived to be.

Every transfer window and every managerial appointment sets the ex-Hibs switch immediately. Fed up with it. You’d have thought that we were a very successful club as we’ve got a history of recruiting ex-Hibs players as managers...

Sadly not, we’ve been good at sacking them as they’ve rarely, if ever, been good enough.

[mentalhibee]

Would be delighted with a combo of Ross and Murray!

[judas]

I think you’re wrong there.

I’ve heard at least three hundred managers on here, each with a unique insight into how things should be done.

They all make it look very easy indeed, so I’m sure in must be.

[IberianHibernian]

Would be delighted with a combo of Ross and Murray!Why ? Ross failed at Sunderland after doing well at Alloa and St Mirren ( Danny Lennon did even better at both clubs and might be available for much less money and won a cup with St M playing the Hibs way ) . ian Murray failed completely at St Mirren and left us under a cloud .

[CloudSquall]

At least we've got a ready made name in "Ihun Murray" for when it all goes tits up.

Ross took Sunderland to ply off spots this season. Hardly a failure.

It was the lowest league position the club has finished in its history.

That’s not great.
