    He blames players for most things. It's still not why he left us for Sunderland.
    Not the whole reason but part of it.

    Nope, he called out Dylan publicly accusing him of suddenly being fit due to his contract nearing it's end. He accused other players of not manning up and playing through injuries, didn't help Hanlon that eh as he struggled at the end of the season.
    Didn't help Porteous either who has been out of the game for months.

    Not convinced tbh. Seemed to play well and happy enough at end of season.

    Career/financial move for me. Same reason most other players leave.

    That was one of the worst man management decisions I've seen in football.

    I was told there was very little difference in either offer, maybe we'll never find out exactly why though.

    This boy is taking a pounding on the forum at the moment, he had a better record than John Hughes and Mixu Paatalainen despite inheriting an infinitely pisher squad, courtesy of Colin Calderwood. Never seem to hear Hughes or Mixu being ridiculed on the forum
    On what planet did Pat Fenlon have a better record than Yogi or Mixu?

    Fenlon had a win percentage of 35.6%, higher than Yogi (35.2%) and Mixu (30.7%).

    People tend to forget that in the 2012-13 season we did threaten top six at one point before some unreal referee decisions.

    We actually topped the table after the first round of fixtures.

    I met Fenlon in Dunlin once when on a business trip and he told he had to do all the loans from lower leagues because Petrie gave a small budget.

    He was nowhere close as bad as he's remembered as. That run that saw us to the top of the league was brilliant, including beating Celtic on the way.

    U huh yes. And on what planet did Pat Fenlon have a better record than Yogi or Mixu?

    Win percentage is one of many metrics to judge success. Being responsible for two of the most embarrassing results in a clubs history would be another.

    .. or just admit you didn't realise Fenlon's win record was better

    I think I was aware but it’s not relevant. I’ve had this debate before with Andy74 when he was Fenlons cheerleader. Threatening the top 6 doesn’t make him successful.

    Finishing 2nd in a cup means nothing. Especially with two of the most limp performances in memory.

    Yogi finished 4th. Mixu had 2 6th place finishes. Their points per game would likely beat Fenlon’s too. That’s before we get onto the 2 worst results in Hibs history.

    Except he really wasn't responsible for the Hearts final, unless getting us there against the odds makes him responsible?

    Yogi lost 4-1 at Hamilton and 5-1 at St Johnstone with Riordan, Stokes, Zemamma, Bamba and Liam Miller. That is much more embarrassing.

    Mixu did a decent job but it was definitely time to go.

    To be fair i actually didn't mind Pat Fenlon. The guy put everything into the job it was just too big for him. Loved that he was at the 2016 SC final supporting us. I don't have any ill feelings towards him. I was just making the point that Lennon shouldn't be hailed for winning a piss easy Championship. Especially huffing and puffing our way to winning it. Any of our recent managers would have managed it.
