Had to happen. I slated him a lot basically because he was crap but always a pity when folk lose their jobs. Saying that, they wouldnt lose their jobs if they were any good at them. Also it would have been his dream job, its obviously been too big for him!

**~~Sergey~~** · 04-10-2010 08:05 AM

Correct decision.

Should have been sacked after the 6-6 match.

**Hibstrooper** · 04-10-2010 08:05 AM

For the best however my initial reaction is still a little shock with a touch of sadness it didn't work out

***cabbageandribs1875*** · 04-10-2010 08:06 AM

had to happen and i for one am quite happy, but now he's gone hopefully people on here dont start the yammish name calling/personal insults which happens when any of our last 3 managers have 'left'

***easty*** · 04-10-2010 08:08 AM

Probably had to be done but we need the right man to come in now, and for me that isnt Jimmy Calderwood!!!

***greenlex*** · 04-10-2010 08:09 AM

Unfortunate but inevitable.
Onwards and upwards

**Magnifique** · 04-10-2010 08:09 AM

Thats a good boy Rodney, you know it makes sense

Now get on the blower to Tony

**The_Todd** · 04-10-2010 08:09 AM

Now that it's happened I'd like to thank Yogi for his efforts. There's no doubting his passion and enthusiasm. Yogi clearly cared for the club and I'd like to think he'd be welcomed back to ER as a supporter.

Cheerio yogi, and thank you for your efforts.

Always a shame when a manager loses his job, however it was obvious things were not working out.
The players need to take a good look at themselves as well.
The next manager needs to be someone who won't take any of the players crap and tries to breed a winning mentality.
If any of the players don't like it then get rid of them.

Thanks for the good times as a player john, just a shame it never worked out as the manager.

**Westie1875** · 04-10-2010 08:11 AM

Wow, it had to happen but i really didn't think the board were going to act. So, who next?

**Barney McGrew** · 04-10-2010 08:11 AM

I'm sorry that it didn't work out for Yogi, you could see he has the passion for the club.

It is however the right decision.

My sentiments exactly. All the best John. Cheers.

***easty*** · 04-10-2010 08:12 AM

Could have been so different for him...

may struggle to get a decent job now, hope not though.

**Calvin** · 04-10-2010 08:12 AM

Correct decision and good timing. Hughes can't say he wasn't at least given a chance when results started to go bad, but it's clear that his position had become untenable and with the international break ahead it was the right time to act.

**SidBurns** · 04-10-2010 08:13 AM

Had to happen sometime!

Who we gonna get in then!?!?!?!

Managers out of work that we could 'realistically' get plus others:-

* Kevin Blackwell
* Jimmy Calderwood
* Gary Bollan
* Martin Allen
* Chris Coleman
* Iain Dowie
* Alan Shearer
* Jim Gannon
* Paul Hart
* Glenn Roeder
* Stuart McCall

Any of these tickle anyone's fancy!?!

I was pleased with the appointment of Hughes and wanted so much for him to do well.

I had put his poor patch with Falkirk down to the loss of Latapy and felt that his eye for a player, and the fact that his Falkirk side were often difficult to beat and attractive to watch in spells, would serve him well at Hibs.

I have felt for a while that his removal was inevitable but my heart still sank when I read the news on the official site. Strange. Despite all the poor results it was never about hating the big man or wanting him to fail - it was always about wanting the best for hibs.

A big decision has been made by the board (and Yogi if we can believe the term mutual). I applaud all parties for that. As far as I am concerned it is the right time.

I wish Yogi all the best in getting his managerial career back on track.

Good luck to the board in appointing the right man to take us forward.

***Teo10*** · 04-10-2010 08:15 AM

Sorry it didn't wotk out.

Thanks for your efforts Yogi and all the best!

**Gatecrasher** · 04-10-2010 08:15 AM

Wow, to be expected though

Thanks for the effort yogi but not good enough at the end of the day

**khib70** · 04-10-2010 08:16 AM

Absolutely the correct decision, albeit a bit late in the day.

Yogi never had the ability to manage this club, and we would never have progressed under him.

On a personal level, I wish a fellow Hibee all the best for the future

**MussiHibee** · 04-10-2010 08:17 AM

Most Likely Be Micheal O'Neill

Fits in with ex player routine....hardly inspiring.

couldnt agree more

**Heckys Wheel** · 04-10-2010 08:19 AM

Very sad.

Please Hibs, no more ex-players. I'm running out of idols.

***Spike Mandela*** · 04-10-2010 08:19 AM

Good luck in the future Yogi.

NEXT!!!!!
