Good luck in the future Alan...sad to see a Hibee leaving from the management team....

***Billy Whizz*** · 03-09-2020 03:02 PM

Disappointed to read this
Got to know Alan quite well when I went to the development games

Best of luck Alan, hope you get something soon

***Vault Boy*** · 03-09-2020 03:04 PM

Thanks for all of your work Alan. What an amazing moment for a Hibs fan to be a part of.

Hopefully he finds a new role soon.

**Since452** · 03-09-2020 03:05 PM

I'd like to see him back maybe in a coaching role one day

For some reason Jack Ross must fancy Craig Samson more..

Am I the only one who doesn't get this? See it on Twitter all the time as well.

Probably just the comfort of having worked with Craig Samson before. Personally think it is good for a coach to have a strong coaching team who he has worked with and can trust. Think that worked well with Stubbs and his assistants.

Seems that way, and has to be supported if the Manager wants it. always thought Alan was doing a good job (albeit from a fans viewpoint )..decent keeper performance in recent seasons ...

Think Samson is signed as a goalie too

I thought he should have been coaxing Marciano off his line to collect more cross balls and to improve on his distribution of the ball.
I think in the last few weeks there has been an improvement with both and maybe that is down to Samson!

He is Billy. Seen he had a squad number on the SPFL site at the start of the season.
Didn't fancy him as a keeper when he played, but hopefully only called upon in a real emergency.

Thanks
Have you got a link to this, can’t seem to find it on SPFL site, which is a nightmare to navigate

I would say Rocky appears more commanding on cross balls however may just be feeling confident and in good form.

Good luck to Combe for the future! Was with us when we won the cup so I’m sure he’s more than delighted with his time here.

Spot on. Often wondered what exactly the goalkeeper coach did with Marciano. Most folk recognise he has a weakness at crosses and distribution. In previous seasons it never got any better but seems to have improved recently. Whether a change of coach has helped in this regard time will tell.

Good luck AC

Sad to see him go. Maybe return in a coaching role in future?

Already been said on this thread and it's not getting any better with age..

This is a guy who lifted the scottish cup as part of our coaching team. Sincere thanks for all your efforts Alan!

**The Wireless** · 03-09-2020 06:52 PM

Maybe sentiment but always disappointed to see anyone with the Hibs DNA leave our club. I understand there are circumstances either way and accept the hopefully amicable outcome. Thank you Alan for your work and dedication and the very best for the future.

Am I the only one not getting the return to coaching role apparent joke or whatever it is?

Nae idea. Can’t even mind reading many posts ever about a player returning as a coach apart from Whittaker maybe.
