Lennon - sort him a new contract

**BegbieHSC** · 14-08-2017 01:35 PM

Hi all,

Sorry to add another Lenny thread, but I felt that this subject deserves its own focus.

I'm just 27, and I know some are a wee bit longer in the tooth than I, but I genuinely think that Lenny is probably the best manager I've witnessed in an ER dugout.

With all the crap going on with the Huns and knuckle draggers, would it not be a real signal of intent, as well as a strong display of solidarity to get the man on a new contract?

Lennon is taking our club places, and he really deserves our support. C'mon Hibs!

It would be great timing and a smart piece of business by Hibs.

Better to wait and see if he gets jailed for his criminal activities over the weekend.
There's a petition going around, you know.

***BroxburnHibee*** · 14-08-2017 02:18 PM

I'd agree with that but it will all depend on what Lenny wants.

If he keeps going the way he has then Id expect a Championship club to come calling eventually but again is that what he wants. Was it not said his family are settled here which made a move back here desirable.

We should definitely be offering something though.

I'll split that one with you, since going by emotional damage this has caused the Sevconians, it'll no doubt be a life sentence :/

Indeed sort him out a contract, the knuckle draggers with about 1 braincell between them are also trying to get a contract for Lennon.

**Since90+2** · 14-08-2017 02:43 PM

Realistically we are the only club he will manage in Scotland over the next few years and his stock wont be too high in England as he struggled abit at Bolton. I would offer him a 2 year extension and say what he says , I suspect he would be fairly happy to get the deal done.

**~~Firestarter~~** · 14-08-2017 02:45 PM

Surely there must been one on offer.

Getting Lenny to sign a 4 year deal would potentially be our best bit of business in an already amazing transfer window. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but i'm hugely optimistic for our club's future with Neil at the helm. He seems to have brought a mentality which seems to be helping our club manifest itself as the big club we know it is.

Make it happen, Leeann/Rod!

**Waxy** · 14-08-2017 02:48 PM

Yes

**~~TheReg!~~** · 14-08-2017 02:49 PM

While we're at it, get SJM on a extended deal too!

**~~High-On-Hibs~~** · 14-08-2017 02:49 PM

He should be put behind bars...... at Easter Road

I'd be raging if he was any other clubs manager. Love him as our own.

***Hermit Crab*** · 14-08-2017 02:53 PM

Neil!!! Sign on the dotted line and keep the fans feelin fine!

**Shrekko** · 14-08-2017 02:57 PM

Doing an unbelievable job- we've got a squad we could barely have dreamt off before within the space of 3 windows. It wasn't even a shock we won at Ibrox coming up from the Championship- says it all.

New contract HAS to be in the works surely?

If we were to announce a SJM and Lennon contract extension I would be erect for months

**LithgaeHibby** · 14-08-2017 03:23 PM

It would also be quite poetic if, instead of some lengthy reply to the Club 1872 (ahem 2012) statement, the only thing coming out of ER this week is a brief announcement that NL has agreed a 2-year contract extension.

**Famous Fiver** · 14-08-2017 03:27 PM

If he gets the jail this week I'll gladly pay £20 odd quid to sit in his seat on the bench with my ears cupped for 90 minutes!!!

Would be a great show of support by the club.

Lenny gets us. It's good to see more people get him.

Great thread OP.

An offer has been on the table for SJM for a good few months.

**stoneyburn hibs** · 14-08-2017 03:43 PM

I think Lennons next move will be back to Celtic, hopefully not anytime soon though.

I doubt it.

***southern hibby*** · 14-08-2017 04:59 PM

4 year contract with a buy out clause of X amount of pounds ( I'd set this in the millions bracket).

We really have a winner and I trust him to make Hibs a force in Scottish football while we have him. Which means one thing we have to keep backing the team even when we have a bad spell to make sure the board get the funds too finance players he needs/ wants to bring in.

Think I'm trying to say if he see's the ambition from board and fans I think he'll stay for a while and be happy to extend.
