We didn’t progress at the rate to get the results required at Hibs, but it is the right foundation for that club, which is run in the perfect way.

Honest?
Calderwood admits he was lucky to have a new job so quicklyLast edited by Saorsa; 07-12-2011 at 12:23 PM.

Seems to have least started to accept that there these a little things known as results, and have some significance in the modern game.

No mention of Petrie buying players or not letting him do his job properly.
Here's some honest words from Blackpool Colin, you were useless, and worked yer ticket out of the club. I hope you fail, Birmingham are relegated and you are sacked pronto.

It's not the amount of young players that's the problem, it's the amount of rubbish he bought that now struggles to get a game ahead of the likes of Lewis Stevenson and the fact he only added one rubbish centre half to a struggling back 4.
So, honest enough to say he should have dome better but I'm not seeing a grasp of what went wrong.

And in defence of O'Hanlon, I've seen first hand how effective he can be in a half decent defence - its not his fault he's been put in alongside kids and muppets. Calderwood's done him no favours there.

Calderwood is the worst manager I have seen in my lifetime.
I hope Birmingham go down and he gets sacked. Ops I see someone has already said thatLess talk, more gifs. 21.05.16

I hope Calderwoods a success at Birmingham. I've no problem with him as a man, although he was ***** as a manager.

Calderwood admits he didn’t do enough
A bit late to be coming out with statements like that. I really do hope that Birmingham fans have to suffer as much as we had to over the course of the last year and quickly end up in a relegation dogfight. I like Chris Hughton but if there are casualties at St Andrews then so be it.

Self awareness is a worthy quality - lacking in some previous incumbents of course

The guy was sacked. He's come out and admitted that he failed and let the fans down. And still he gets abuse. LOL.

I didn't like him as a manager but liked him as a person. He seems like a genuine, nice guy. Sure he didn't do well but I still wish him all the best as he never did anything to offend us... I mean at least he was honest about the Birmingham stuff - how many players have said "I love Hibs, I would never leave Hibs for OF, not interested in move, blah blah blah and then gone on to stab us in the back. All the best Colin.

He was a crap manager, there is no denying that, but you must be such a bitter little person to actually hope that he fails in future employment.

Atleast he hasnt tried to make excuses for himself however his attitude to the job was his biggest down fall. He knew he wasnt doing the job anywhere near to the standard expected and still didnt walk, he was after the pay out and knew full well he would walk into the birmingham post. Wish him all the best in the future though and hope we never see anything like the football we were subjected to during his time here again!
In paddy fenlon we trust :pfgwa

But I didn't realise that was the point you were making. I thought you were saying that players regularly said they'd never leave for the OF. Pat Stanton might have said it, quietly, 938178031513 years ago, but I've never heard it at all.
