    Lennon ready to talk....

    NEIL LENNON is ready to speak to Hibs about sensationally replacing Alan Stubbs just a week after narrowly missing out on a Celtic return.
    SunSport Online understands the out of work Lennon is keen to hear the future plans of the Scottish Cup winners who are desperate to make a quick appointment following the exit of Stubbs to Rotherham United.
    It’s believed the Hibees have made their interest known in the 44-year-old

    Just can't see it although after Bolton I think he'd struggle to get a decent job down south so who knows...

    The Sun are usually pretty accurate when it comes to Hibs stories (transfers that is).

    I wouldn't be shocked if this was accurate nor would I be unhappy.

    In normal circumstances, I wouldn't want him anywhere near Hibs. But for the sheer sake of winding up THAT half of Glasgow......

    An unsavoury character, a thug, who has achieved nothing when faced with any sort of competition.

    No thanks.

    He has won the SPL he knows Scottish football. Neil Lennon should welll be able to get us promoted and if he didnt it would IMO be his fault before board, if we hire Gemmil or Cathro type then the boardwould be fully to blame IMO.

    Every manager is a risk, Neil Lennon is less a risk than somebody who has never managed

    Lennon would motivate the players. They would certainly have more dig about them which is something we've lacked hence we struggle against battling teams.

    Not sure if I want him though but certainly wouldn't be unhappy if he did. Not initially anyway...

    Out of all the names mentioned this was the one I liked most. I just didn't think he'd be interested.

    Winding up the Huns is an added bonus...
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    It would certainly be an interesting appointment, for a number of reasons.

    We need a manager with experience of managing at a high level and one that has connections to get us back to the spl in this regard lennon ticks all the boxes for me from a footballing point of view, but as is said above it is the sun its been reported in

    No thanks.
    Hated him as a player and can never forget his off the ball kick at Tam McManus.

    But that was as a player.

    He beat Barcelona on the way to last 16 of Champions League, in my book that's some pretty good competition.

    And his last game in Scotland was a Scottish Cup win so we've got that in common

    I'm not sure I really believe this is true. But one clear upside, no more soft touch Hibs - for anyone.

    Last 16 of the Champions League?

    A fine acheivement faced with considerable opposition. He also won the then SPL far more handily than his successor managed.

    The rest of the post is a total character assasination which is a bit off unless you have encountered this side of him personally. Surely the way the media has acted with regards Hibs in the last couple of weeks has taught us not to take every story or half truth they publish as gospel?

    This as bizarre as it seems actually seems to have a bit of truth in it.

    Would be straight out of left field as they say and would wind der Hun up no end.

    Think he would be exactly what we need to win the championship in all honesty... Far too often teams have kicked us off the park and our superior squad struggled (think Falkirk)....

    Under this guy make no mistake our superior squad woul very quickly learn how to kick back and kick harder.

    I have to say it would also be absolutely classic Petrie. You think you're getting your own way and the last word with the independent inquiry aye? I'd like to introduce our new manager to you....

    I always kind of liked him as a player, the sort of player I wished we had. He knew his limitations and he did the job he was in there to do well.

    As a manager though...no so sure.

    Indeed we have to go up no ifs or buts, Lennon IMO is orshould be more than capable of winning this league, risk indeed but far less of a risk than untried manager.

    Promotion is only goal. If LD thinks Lennon is best man to achieve that, and we can get him, then I trust her judgement.

    FWIW - could not care less what the Huns think. After we humped them in the Scottish Cup Final, they are even less relevant than before.
