    SSN Live from ER

    Just had a short piece:

    1) NL won't manage Hibs again
    2) No comment from Hibs until severance package sorted
    3) Strachan unlikely, although he is pals with Petrie
    4) New coach will have to work within structure in place
    5) Club still trying to bring in players before window closes.

    Make of that what you will.

    PS Sounds like the reporter had an off the record briefing.

    Was it Luke Shanley doing the reporting?

    If so, he has very good contacts inside ER so that will be 100% spot on.

    No - sorry, didn't catch the name, but not Luke.

    Maybe both parties trying to cut their losses and keep it out of court?

    Would like Strachan but if he isn’t interested then move on. Hopefully a few players in over the coming days, we have a very productive recruitment team so no doubt they have players in mind

    Yep. Legal fees will be ginormous and washing your dirty linen in public never reflects well on either party.

    If they are discussing a severance package, as SSN suggest, then it is likely that both parties realise the relationship is irretrievable and it is better to move on.

    If I was a player I don’t know how I would feel about joining a club without a manager. New manager might not rate him at all.

    suspect the only players that would come would be either

    Young prospect and joining s club our size is far too big an opportunity to miss
    A player that knows they will walk into the team - no matter who the manager is

    Andy walker just on, very sensible stuff from him, yeah I know, board have backed Lennon but he hasn't delivered, look at Killie and St Js above Hibs and will struggle to get a top 6 finish, the board are right to have worries about where Lennon is taking Hibs, you just can't keep asking the board to stump up more money.

    True but the coach will work within the existing system we have at the club

    I think leann has previously spoke about setting up a specific identity at Hibs so hopefully she can convince players to join even without a head coach in place

    The market at this time of year is different though, generally a lot of 6 month loans or short contracts, players just want to get playing and teams need a body.

    If it was summer i'd agree but I think it won't make much difference right now who is in charge, anyone coming in now is likely out of favour an not playing at their current club at the very least.

    I would never, ever have believed I would see Andy Walker and sensible in the same sentence.

    'New coach will have to work within structure in place'

    I wonder if that means retaining the existing backroom staff, academy set up, coaches etc - with the exception of Parker I would expect. I would have thought that might be a problem if we brought in an established, high profile Manager who would probably want a say in all football matters and how they are run.

    Maybe we're going to get a rookie, or.............................AS back, who will already be content with the structure?

    Sounds like SSN making it up on the spot sing dotnet as the source of his information. Anyone of us on here could have written that script.

    We have been saying for the last few years that this will be our operating model. Head Coaches will come and go.

    That was always Hibs plan. Tried to copy what Southampton have in place so that when changes did take place it wasn't an almighty upheaval every time. Any new manager would have to fit certain criteria.

    Personally think looking more and more like that, might be totally wrong of course.

    Could do a Man.u. and get a caretaker manager in for the rest of the season?

    You can see them giving it to AS until the end of the season for stability; knows the set up and many of the players, etc.
