Delighted for him. Didn't work out up here but had a chance to chat with him once and he was a very clever chap, fantastic football knowledge and spoke well of the club.
Hope he does well.

That is actually pretty funny he's got that job whilst we are all squabbling over Jack Ross remaining in charge.

Have you been speaking to yourself in the mirror again?

Marvin Bartley (who didn’t really get
Much game time with him) says that Hecky was the best coach he’s ever worked with

Must have break clauses built in.
Ask him if we can have a loan of McBurnie

Hecky has been given a FOUR and a half year deal. That is crazy in this day and age in that league. Wow.

Pleased for him. Never worked out at Hibs but as said if Doidge had his shooting boots on could have been different. He also had Boyle out for pretty much his whole time at Hibs and we know what a difference that makes to us. I think he was very unlucky to get his jotters and if our league form continues as it has then it will be interesting to see how quickly the Board would think about a change of manager. Ross seems competent enough for me and I'd far rather we got into the habit of backing rather than sacking managers

We've had worse. I think he had a lot of good ideas, I don't think you take the lead that often without some idea of how to set up a team. Injuries to key players hurt him a lot.

Yup I was fortunate along with some others to visit the training centre when Hibs.net sponsorship funded the gps stuff. He was not much longer in charge and you got a bit of a sense of defensiveness but to be fair he fielded and handled the questions well and in details.
what I took from that was - he was intense, a deep thinker of the game. He talked about the importance of fitness and sports science - you’re not an athlete you just won’t be considered down South - so if we want to sell there essential. He also acknowledged it needed to be more that fitness and that psychology has a part to play. He didn’t come out and say a lot of the challengers were in the players heads but I think that’s what he was hinting at. Doidge could have been an example of that. Wasn’t Hanlon also injured?

I was pretty hyped when he came in as I believed his philosophy would revolve around high pressing and intensity. He talked about that but the reality was the opposite and not one of his signings were in that mould.
Might do a lot better with the resources available at Sheff Utd to be fair, where the squad is already good enough for promotion.

Good luck to him.
He had the right ideas but needs to improve his motivational skills. Hopefully the time out has helped.
