Pat Fenlon

[Keith Murphy]

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen,

Before we start let me just say that im not a Hibs fan or at least wasnt till Pat Fenlon took charge. For the record im a Shamrock Rovers fan(no wise cracks lol) anyway I just wanted to say a few things about ur manager. Over the past few weeks since Pat took over I have been on several Hibs sites to see what the reaction has been to him. I have read alot of crap about him i.e he doesnt no what he is doing, he isnt the man for the job blah blah blah. Well as someone who has been a life long shamrock rovers and league of Ireland fan let me just say a few things about this man u have in charge now. This man trust me IS THE REAL DEAL. He has won countless league titles in Ireland with 2 different clubs(Bohs & Shelbourne) and done it with virtually no money. This man nos the game inside out and is a great leader and motivator. I no from reading stuff on other sites that the players took over the dressing room when Colin Calderwood was manager. Trust me this WILL NOT happen under PF. This man will get rid of all the trouble makers and make Hibs a force to be reckoned with. Some of u may laugh at this but im telling u if he is given the time this man will make ur club fantastic.

Just to finish I wanted to say that the league of Ireland has lost its best manager in years and I hope that all u Hibs fan realise what u have. This man is a legend in Ireland as a manager and he will turn ur club into a force.

Thank u and I hope ur club has lots of success under him.

[DaveF]

Cheers Keith.

I knew nothing about Fenlon before he arrived but in his short time here he has already ditched most of the dead wood and brought a sense of excitement and optimism back to the fans.

I like the guy and with luck, think he will do us proud.

GGTTH

I'm surprised you think there has been a lot of negativity about PF. Sure, a few may have reservations, but I think his arrival at ER has been generally met with optimism and enthusiasm.

I was reading some of the other sites like hibees bounce I think one of them was called and alot of guys on it were saying he only has this amount of points in 11 games and so on thats why I had to try and reassure u all lol

[Sodje_18]

I think we've definitely employed the right guy this time, can't remember the last management team we had that were this ambitious and animated. On the touch line he's very Martin O'Neil-esque imo.

Turning around what we had and how we were was never going to be an overnight job, Good luck to your team this season too

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Thanks for that, Pat.

Thats exactly who he is like and im telling u this man will make u good very very good but I just hope Rod Petrie gives him time

I think people were wary of him in the beginning, and probably had a right to be given the last few managers we have and added ti the fact he was pretty unkown to us. Howeverthere is an excited buzz about Fenlon, not only from the hibs fans but from the media and many others involved with football.

As I said earlier to DaveF go to wikipedia and check him out.Im not 100% sure but he has won 5 league titles as a manager in Ireland in about 9 years with no money

Cheers for the info! Never even knew that, I really am beginning to get excited about Hibs at the moment. I haven't seen a lot of his new signings but going by highlights and reviews on here it sounds like they've been doing really well. He's seen the areas that we were particularly weak in and he has strengthened him. The board obviously have faith in him and it seems they are prepared to back him, going by the January window.

There has been a much better feel around Easter Road since he has came in. Calderwood just killed the place - even when he was first appointed he was greeted with disappointment from some fans - he was just so bland, uninspring, clueless and it seems that Fenlon is the opposite of all these things. When I listened to a 5 minute interview with Colin Calderwood I found myself drifting off, not really listening to what he was saying. With Fenlon though and always find myself interested in what he is saying, not only does he talk a lot more sense, but he just sounds so much more enthusiastic and that he feels grateful that he has the oppurtunity to manage Hibs - unlike Calderwood who showed in the summer he never really cared that much, and to be honest treated the club with a complete lack of respect.

It's just great now that we finally have a manager, who doesn't take his position for granted, is enthusiastic and also has football knowledge to go with it.

Thanks mate, think you'll find that the majority of Hibbies are very much behind PF. Dead wood gone and individual positions (that we had all identified for some time) dealt with (even if by short term loans). I have no doubt that he will be a success at ER. Keep following the Hibs.....you know it makes sense......

[Keith_M]

Come on, just admit it, you're actually Pat's agent. There's no point trying to convince us he needs a pay rise, you need to speak to Iron Rod.





Can't say I've heard many Hibs fans say he's not up to much, quite the contrary in fact.

PF, I think he's done a great job so far, as good as anyone could have hoped for really. As long as improvement continues and we are steered clear of relegation, I'll be very happy to have him in charge for what will be an extremely important next season for us.

That's what I thought. Not immediately but after about 30 seconds. Time will tell. Could be wrong.

[blackpoolhibs]

How true is it fenlon had no money to spend while managing in Ireland?

[edwards]

Keith the last thing we want Fenlon to do is fail but football is a funny old game. Felon has probably taken over one of the worst squad of hibs players I have ever witnessed. He has brought in a few loan players which will hopefully get us out of the relagtion problems we are in.
Our defence was one of the worst in Scotland and he has went out and brought in a few decent loans, lets hope Paddy is as good as you think he is.

Could be wrong about what

[Ferryhibby]

Good on ya keith for sharing that with us...think the board have done well here appointed a man with huge balls and character...anyone crossing a religious divide over there and handling it that well deserves loads of respect..the fact hes proved to be a winner seems to be rubbing off on some of the playersw..Stevenson and Wotherspoon to name but two, i love listening to the guy, he speaks a lot of sense and humerous unlike our previous manager...there was a comment from a Dundee Utd fan a couple of weeks ago saying they really dodged a bullet not appointing Fenlon...we'll see GGTTH
