TBH Hibs barely got a mention, on the other hand he was quite happy to talk about Rangers and how that's the biggest job. I did agree with what he was saying about Scott Brown though. I'd like to see Brown as Hibs manager someday, but that's just my opinion.Quote:

Guys a total weapon. If he was chocolate he'd eat himself. He also constantly refers to it as 'footy' and it really annoys me.Quote:

Can't imagine too many clubs being overly interested if they think he will be looking for the next step after being in the door for 5 mins.Quote:

Hodgson about to take over at Watford. Guy must be about 80 by now - has been around forever 😂 more fool him, can’t be needing the payday at his age.
It’s Watford. Sign a 2 year deal, get paid off after a few months…Quote:

One thing he could do is behave like a top manager, show that he’s got the nous for it. And an important part of that is not talking about managing other clubs.
Looking forward to Watford sacking him in April.Quote:

Don't see how, when a new owner comes in, there's always a good chance they'll want their own man on place, McCann will know that.Quote:

Wonder if Sunderland might be interested in Neilson? If there's odds tomorrow I might put a punt on Alex Neil though.

Some of their players are amongst the best in that league - a league they really need to get out of - and with the right man in charge they should really do so.
They're a tough crowd down there though and I don't think there would have been any coming back from yesterday's result (probably the worst in the club's history) for Johnson.
Lennon linked with Sunderland on the BBC gossip page.
Because when you've tried everything else to get promoted, may as well get someone expensive in to call the players a right bunch of *****.Quote:

I heard a few of them justifying their behaviour by saying no fanbase had suffered more in recent years, which shows a severe lack of perspective as well.
“If they're going to get a new manager in they're not going to get a manager as successful as myself in the door”
Derek Adams on the lookout for a new club - such a (self proclaimed) successful manager should be in with a shout for the Aberdeen vacancy?

Me too. His St Mirren side was assembled on a shoestring budget (second lowest in the league 2019-20) and he seems to have them playing a decent brand of football.Quote:

I think Goodwin's an excellent manager.
From a Hibs perspective we could do without him going to Aberdeen.
Another risky experiment, similar to their own last appointment and our own current one, would be more likely to crash and burn.
A manager with a decent record at a lower level and deserving of an opportunity to work with greater resource might be a problem.
I'd have been very happy with Goodwin at Hibs - was between him and Neil for me, if we had to replace Ross.
Sunday was encouraging though, hopefully we'll kick on and improve from here.
You'd think £250k to release Goodwin wouldn't be an issue for Aberdeen but i was reading that they went over budget on players for this season and they have their stadium to build (think it's still going ahead). I like Goodwin though. Wouldn't have been disappointed if we'd gone for him.
Cormack's family trust does have the cash to splash some seem to think. He's paid off McInnes and now Glass and his coaching team and needs to pay compo to another team to snaffle their manager. He's blown a full season's worthof football budget on one job and cannot afford to burn cash in the short to medium term. Sheepies about to learn about living within his means and the long slow rebuild, probably starting in the Championship.Quote:

I think Goodwin is a decent coach. Wouldn’t have minded him at Hibs
Like him too - think he’ll do well. Mind you , think Ross would do better .Quote:

He is simply flavour of the month because they are on a decent run just now. I know they beat us recently but it's not as if they played us off the park or anything.
You never know how somebody will do at a new club but he wouldn't be for me.
