Good luck and thanks Lenny and Parker.

[Vault Boy]

Thanks for your efforts guys.

[matty_f]

All the best Neil and Gary - it was good fun while it lasted!

[WhileTheChief..]

Well thats a whole pile of keek.

We suspended him so we could carry out an internal review of what exactly if he hadn’t done anything wrong?

Total BS statement.

[WillowbraeHibby]

Move on I suppose, nowt else for it.

[bigwheel]

Thanks Neil and Garry - always welcome back from my perspective - Thanks for all your work and best of luck for the next chapter of your career..

And right Hibs - let's get going again!!

I would have to agree with you. Weird state of affairs?

[JeMeSouviens]

Nothing to see here, move along, move along ...

Really sad end to a rollercoaster ride.

[Broken Gnome]

Absence of any Leeann Dempster comment quite telling?

It’s called a settlement.

[Souter96Mac]

Thanks Neil and Gary for your tenure. Looking forward to who we get in.

[CapitalGreen]

Amazing how many people are desperate for Hibs to air their dirty laundry in public.

[blackpoolhibs]

Thanks to the club and Neil for issuing this statement that many wanted, thanks for clearing everything up, we can move on now, and those fans who wondered what the hell had gone on wont ask anymore question.

[aljo7-0]

Thanks to both. Shame it has ended this way but hopefully onwards and upwards for all

[Stevie Reid]

Really couldn't care about the statement not explaining what happened, and think it's benign nature is for the best.

I am hugely grateful to NL and GP for their time at Hibs, and am very sad to see them go - but I'm also excited to see where we go next.

Total BS statement.

Hypothetical situation to explain the kind of circumstances in which that could happen, totally legitimately:

Person A raises a concern that Person B has been threatening Person C.

Person in charge has a responsibility to investigate, but due to the nature of the allegation (which at this point is only an allegation and therefore could be with or without merit), it's appropriate to suspend Person B to remove them from the situation.

Investigation takes place, witness statements are gathered and on the basis of the evidence, the allegation is dismissed.

Entirely correct way to handle the situation. Suspending someone is not finding them guilty or even suggesting that they are guilty of any wrongdoing.

Maybe the speculation of events last week was not the sole reason for the outcome but probably the last straw in a series of events, not conducive to the well-being of the club. I think the club has acted properly and responsibly.

It is strange, right enough.

[SRHibs]

As we can see, nothing actually happened, but club and manager just both spontaneously decided things were no longer working and that parting ways would be best for both. Thanks for clearing things up Hibs!

[500miles]

Maybe we should get Rod, Leann and Neil on Jeremy Kyle to air the dirty laundry for everyone's satisfaction.

This was always going to b e the outcome unless you wanted a legal battle and a press coordinated PR war.

[hibsbollah]

Its the Omerta.
The Sicilian mafia has nothing on Hibernian FC.


Thanks Neil and Garry

[Barney McGrew]

Oh well.

A very carefully worded HR friendly statement, and as suspected we’ll never know the real story. Non Disclosure Agreements ahoy, and the only winners are the lawyers on both sides.

Time to move on.

[hibby6270]

Nothing else to see here now. Time to move on.
Thanks Neil and Garry for the memories. GGTTH

[Pretty Boy]

It was always going to be like this. It's not in anyones interests for our dirty laundry to be aired, particularly in the courts. Agree a settlement and declare publicly no one is to blame. HR 101.

It's good news for those who want to bash the club regardless, it's good news for those who want to bash Lennon, it's good news for the gossips and it's good news for those of us who want to move on.

Let's be honest NL and Hibs were never likely to part with a firm handshake. It's been fun while it lasted and I wish Lennon and Parker well. Ultimately though I'm a Hibs supporter and where we go from here is all I really care about now.

[GloryGlory]

Thanks, Neil and all the best.

I will particularly miss your unmatched ability to effortlessly wind up Sevco and Sevconians!

Good kuck also to Garry.

I did think it off that it was a Rod Petrie comment and not a Leeann comment.

[muzzhfc]

Thanks to both for everything. Time for us all to move on for the good of the club and season!

[Sir David Gray]

I don't believe a word of that statement but it was what I expected to come out.

All the best to the pair of them and good luck to the board in replacing them with similar quality.

Not really.

If she was involved in any 'incident' then it's probably been agreed she'll play no part in the end game.
