    Aye, that level of insightful comment and debate is just what I come on here for.

    One of my mates spoke to him in Magaluf over the summer. His words were that he fully expected to be at Hibs this season.

    Good we need continuity throughout the coaching staff if we are to build on last year.

    That's a bit strange since I saw him washing his car outside his house in Mussy just last week.

    Fair enough I took it to mean he was supposed to be away on holiday. As in not at home. Which he isn't.
    Glad I cleared that up

    To be honest I'd prefer if he wasn't at Hibs next season. I think he has to much to say for himself and is the type who would undermine Fenlon. I also didn't like his 'old friends' act at the final. Is he even a good coach? We've made no progress since he came last season. He doesn't comes across well in interviews either... But appart from all that I like him

    This is one of the problems Hibs have. He and Jumbo Jim made up the management team that took Hearts (with all their lith money) through a fifteen game period with out a win and were subsequently sacked for not being good enough. However, someone at Hibs thinks Billy Brown is good enough, I don't. In his short period in charge Hibs were woeful to the extent they were the worst I've seen. Nothing I saw gives me confidence in him in any way shape or form. He is part of the problem and should be replaced with someone more capable and inspiring. Rant over.

    I'm lead to believe that none of the current first team coaching staff are particularly good out with Thommo (GK Coach). The irony as Calderwoods coaching was meant to be first class.

    Cool

    I'm happy for Bill-B to be back with the coaching staff for the pre-season and to have input into who PF buys in / signs up.

    I dont give a flyin **** where he has been in the past.

    How does that song go ... ? "He's one of our own !"


    Lets all get behing the Club, Directors, Management, Coaches and players!!


    Cant wait to see the new look team - Glory Glory to the

    It's difficult to pass comment on BB as I have absolutely no idea of the extent of his influence or his actual responsibilities.

    Let's face it you have the best teacher in the world and the pupils are a bunch of no good numpties then any influence will be negligible!

    I think the opinion of players who have struggled to make any sort of impression in an average SPL over a number of seasons about the merits or otherwise of different coaches/managers must be taking with a huge pinch of salt.

    That would be all well and good if he wasn't talking about "mixed emotions" before the biggest game in our history and trying to prepare our players for a team he has such fond memories of.

    Billy Brown may or may not be a dirty sneaky jambo *******. But I thought he would have had more of an impact on the team mentalility than he did have last season. That's what he should be judged on. So far he's just come across as a moaning faced git with little impact on the team.

    First class as in it was game related, fun, challenging etc. Not possession boxes, lack of anything game related and lack of anything enjoyable.

    Think we are all aware that Calderwood let himself down with his man management or lack of, but theres a reason why he's so highly regarding by Chris Hughton and co and that is his coaching ability.

    Current sessions are not enjoyable. Simply passing on the views that i have heard..............

    IMO good training with the right mix of man mangement, coaching etc is vital in the performances on the park. Mowbray was the perfect example.

    Ties in completely with info I heard as well, funny enough described as clueless in comparison to what clueless used to achieve in his sessions!

    Good, they are there to work and when they are so good at their work that they don't find it hard anyone, they will be able to enjoy the fact that they are actually footballers now and can progress training to something they might enjoy.
