Hibernian have made official approaches to find out how much it would cost in compensation should they appoint Bohemians' Pat Fenlon or Shamrock Rovers' Michael O'Neill as their new manager. (Daily Express)
Not sure I would be happy with this considering the calibre we have already been linked with,but as I say,it was just on the gossip site
I heard from a relative of an ex-chairman about 30 minutes before Mowbray was announced that it was either Mowbray or Andreas Brehmer but there was definitely nothing on the public forums on here or the Bounce as I recall checking to see if anyone claiming to have 'contacts' had come up with it.Quote:

I think it's a lot of pish though, i don't think we're after either of them.
very very good source :thumbsup:
My brother-in-law heard form a mate who was a mate of Mowbray's 1st wife's brother* that he was getting the job. He told me on the Saturday or Sunday but I couldn't get a bet on it.Quote:

I've no idea what John Park is like as a coach but he's just been Celtics chief scout so hopefully he'll have a decent amount of contacts, Billy stark might actually be a decent shout as manager, he could be the older head the clubs been crying out for because we've been an absolute shambles the last few years.Quote:

I would suspect if you walked into a Bookies to put cash down on a complete unknown 100% outsider they may well suspect you know something and say no!Quote:

If its the same John Park I am thinking of,he has been at Dundee Utd and also Hibs,and was credited for coaching the youngsters during both clubs better years,im sure he was with us at time of mcleish and mowbray,and they could not speak higher of the guy if i recallQuote:

Well he was there when we produced the 'golden generation' and since he left there's been a lot less breaking through into the first team...Quote:

Chick Young has confirmed Hibs have spoken to Clarke and Stark, source….probably the main board.
Clarke and Stark is a done deal and will be announced on Monday (ties in with Reilly’s prediction), source from a young player in the squad.
Clarke has walked away, source unknown, decent but is not always 100% correct.
Clarke is booked into a Hotel for Monday, source, poster on the main board, backed up by PM poster.
No chance of Hibs appointing Clarke, source one non playing Hibs employee.
Scala now back in the running, source third party, from one of the keepers.
Clarke will get his second interview this weekend, he is in town
Anyone who rhymes with Park or Stark or Clarke said to be in the running
Pat Fenlon and Colin Calderwood also quoted.
Basically no-one knows anything. Other than a few posters who have about 7 previous posts coming on and telling us what they heard in a :taxi: or got on a text. Almost certainly Yams on the wind-up.
Big Tony took a Celtc team to St Midden and got beat 4-0. We've got to move on - he wouldn't have anywhere near the quality of player available to him this time round IMO.Quote:

If we are still in the hunt for Clarke I have to believe they will agree the deal before Saturday - say by Wednesday? If it takes much longer then they must be looking elsewhere. I am just trying to take a punt at the timetable. Clarke comes back today, final negociations, tell press contacts that a decision is made - then a press conference. If Clarke knocks them back, which is possible, then who knows what the date will be.
Tad harsh I think,I know when he was at Dundee Utd he stole a lot of guys from under hibs and hearts radars when the boys were with tynie bc or hutchie.And it was a coup for hibs to get him as he had the contacts and he got the youngsters to Easter Road.Then he left and the conveyer belt of stars stopped coming to us and went to celtic.As you say,he has not coached top side,but as a number 2,he can spot the talent to get them in door....imhoQuote:
