    New Manager

    Yip I know we have one but he won't be here next season. Butcher wasn't my first choice I wanted Archibald at Partick Thistle. Ideaky I'd have wanted McCall should we have retained our SPL status. Now we need to build and I think Ian Murray has to get the gig.

    TB was the majority of fans choice for the job. However, should he go, Ian Murray has to be a stick on for it. Has experience now and knows the division!

    Good shout as well actually.

    Would welcome him, Mowbray or Collins tbh.

    All of them seemed to 'get' Hibs to some extent.

    History suggests it won't make any difference. Plus, we're down. The damage is done.

    I'd take him but doubt he'd leave a shot at European football for the Championship.

    We are right to be looking for a new manager, but I don't think we have a month, as that would take up to the beginning of July, the same month pre-season starts, and if the new manager is to train anyone he will need to be in within a couple of weeks tops to start recruiting let alone training. We need a team in place for the opening day of the season, none of the past adding in August or counting down to the January window.

    The damage is by no means done. We have to get back up in a season.

    Easy to pick a manager eh?

    TB was by far the fans favourite, maybe not yours but for the majority on here.

    If Ian Murray was to get it and fail Whose head would it be on?
    Never said it was eh!?
    I know he was the majorities choice I remember getting shouted down when I wanted Archibald. Not saying Archibald would have worked out better. I guess what u class as failure because it's not going to be easy getting out that league.

    Lower leagues in Spain don`t finish for a few more weeks though some clubs have finished and managers may be available . May be the same in other countries . Sure McDonough and Maybury could do the job till someone else was appointed .

    Hibs must and I mean MUST get out this division at the first attempt. Pay as much as possible for good standard players not journeymen.

    If we don't come up first time around we could be unserious trouble financially as well as on the park.

    Butcher can't survive this and will be hounded out. With this squad remaining as it is we are a bottom six team in the championship, even if Ferguson comes back from retirement.

    If we really are starting from scratch then we need to do what Swansea City have done from the appointment of Martinez onwards and develop a way of playing football that every manager must fall within. All the success stories in Scottish football recently have come from teams that play football the right way, but we managed to pick a management team whose techniques come from the footballing dark ages.

    Of course, first and foremost we need to be strong enough to get back up, and it won't always be pretty. But going to ER has been depressing for a long, long time, and if teams like Hamilton - who combined controlled possession with incisive, quick passing in the final third - can flourish in the Championship, then we should seek to do similar.

    Don't you think a decision should be made imminently?

    We can't go on with this bunch of players. New manager needs to be in now.

    We will remain a mediocre to poor team until we get owners/CEO's with some ambition.

    On the decline for the last 7 years and mismanaged from the top down.... Who gives a **** about the infrastructure when it's going to be wasted and less than half full ever week for the next good knows how many years.

    Until Petrie goes we will just stumble from one disaster to another.

    What manager in their right mind will want to come to us????

    All of June to make decisión . How many out of contract players would we want to keep anyway ? If any want to stay , they can risk waiting till new manager arrives and makes decisions . Not many players sign for clubs till end of June anyway and we won`t have a league match till August .

    Why would McCall leave a good SPFL side who are in Europe for a championship side with rank rotten players? Yes, we are a bigger club but i don't think he'd come. Although i think Butcher won't go anywhere i'd personally have McLeish. Although Owen Coyle would be a decent shout imo

    I really don't domt think we can get by on folk doing a job, we need someone in who understands the league we are going into. The fact is that it is going to be tougher getting out of that league than it is finishing in the top three of the spl.

    As as a club we need a significant change. We had 5/6 years of constant manager change and the task of getting rid of a team of players just about every year. I think that is an impossible task and has been the biggest factor in where we are now. Looking back to when we were a decent side we had a set team with players that we got excitd about getting a contract extension, that could not be said to be the case for a very long time.

    Until there are serious changes in the boardroom, I couldn't care less who our manager is as it won't make a blind bit of difference.

    You could put Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck in there for all I care.

    Could you clarify the bit in bold?
    You mentioned if Ian Murray was a failure. It depends whst you class as failure?? Should he not gain promotion is that failure?

    Guys guys. C'mon eh!!!!

    Let me tell you something. There is no way that Coyle, Mcleish or Mowbray are coming to hibs. Don't be absurd.
