Stubbsy at St Pat's meeting tonight

[Glorious St Pat]

Thoroughly enjoyed tonight and well done Gogs and the boys organising it getting Stubbs, Doolan and Craig along for a very frank Q&A session. Very moving speech from Brandon Walker's uncle too RIP.

Loved Stubbsy's honesty and hearing his philosophy. Special mention to his comments about the the Rangers which went down well. Question from Suzy about DEEK and sadly he won't be joining us in any capacity.

Futures bright.

Stubbsy rejected an offer from a club recently but went onto to say that his ambition is to get promoted. Very happy with the club, has complete trust in his staff and players. Also confident of promotion and that we've got the the Rangers "rattled". His best player he's played with was Rooney.

He also talked about how he found Easter Road intimidating as a player and always had hard games there. He said how important it was for supporters to get behind the team, how much he appreciated the support he and the players get as it makes a difference. Finally supporters really needed to put excuses aside and come back to games.

We need the support.

When is his contract up?

[PatHead]

Should add he sees us as "comfortably a top 6 Premiership side" and "we could equip ourselves well with nothing to fear in the top league"

Cheers seems odd asking him to sign another one a couple of months later. Good to see him being honest with the answers though, like it.

Good point cheers I need to read better. Would have thought it would have been an English club.

Does that means Hibs allowed him to speak to this club? How else could Stubbs reject them? Unless of course the club are duty bound to advise him if there is anything official.

wasn't at the meeting but don't think we should get too hung up on this. He stayed here. Seems to me he wants to get the job done (promotion) but clearly if he was to get a really good offer you couldn't blame him. All we can do is play our part but encouraging the team and hopefully in numbers.

The way he does things is really respectful. Like Colin Calderwood he isn't a born and bred Hibby so doesn't have as much of an emotional tie with us as some would, but he clearly would like to be a part of a big club down south if he gets the opportunity but unlike Colin Calderwood he seems set on leaving us in a good position and giving us all his attention, and also won't go with the bag of sweeties bull**** talk to try and garner attention.

If a big Championship club came in for him in the close season and we'd been promoted I'd be disappointed that he's gone but would want him to do as well as he could as he's an absolute gentleman when it comes to Hibs.

Totally agree - he also said that he has high standards and ambitions that he's instilling into everyone at the club. Also he want to leave a legacy of "good memories" for us fans after he's gone.

He also thinks we are a better team without Scott Allan considering whose come in to replace him. Still in contact with him and wishes hmm well but he had to do what was best for the club at the time. He was prepared to leave Allan in the stand for the year but that wouldn't have helped anyone - club or player.

Just confirms we are lucky to have him and vice versa for giving him his start as a Manager.........long may the relationship flourish GGTTH

Stubbsy do you fancy talking to Real Madrid? "Nah". Offer rejected - hibs didn't let him speak because it didn't get that far is what it sounds like.
