Nobody.
Results will put bums back on seats, but as you say, we need a leader.
We need a no nonsense "my way or the highway" type of manager. Someone who will be 100% direct with the players about what he wants to achieve at the club and anybody who doesn't wish to comply can hand over their locker key.

If you want to see bums on seats, and at the refreshment stalls, and running around on the pitch, and in the dugout, Tynecastle is place to go.

I think the obvious answer to that - at least in the short term - is Michael O'Neill. Of course it's just as important that he puts points on the board. I think he can do both but of course he will need a bit of time to get things going the way he wants.

The way people are talking if Michael O'Neill doesn't: win every SPL game, get us into Europe, win us the Scottish Cup, oust Rod Petrie,remove the board,fill the stadium, bring down ticket prices,get rid of the gulls, improve the music,bring in new caterers, improve BTG, and make Tam McCourt look useful he is going to be deemed a failure.
Talk about huge expectations on his shoulders

As you suggest, results over the piece and leadership are what really matter rather than instant appeal, although it would do no harm to have both as could well be the case with both of the above.

I think HIbs fans are looking for, and board are trying to get one - a ''WOW'' signing as manager.
Strachan certainly fits the bill as a no nonsense expereinced manager at a high level.
Michael O'Neill is untried outside of Ireland and the lower Scottish divisions.
I've got little doubt that Strachan will be there number one target.
My understanding - despite what has been said in the past, is that he nearly did come as manager once.
I think he'd be interested but the only thing he would want would be a guarantee about money for players - and I think STF would have to, despite his reluctance to - become involved in any negotiations if he was to come here, as I think he'd be tapped on t'he shoulder for 'further investment''.
