    They will absolutely sack him if he finishes bottom 6. Absolutely no danger he’ll be here next season if that happens.
    He was being sacked at 81 mins today but then Dundee lost 2 goals and Motherwell kept him in a job by winning.

    Motherwell can now get him sacked next week if they beat Hibs.

    After a torturous few years , I'd bite your hand off for a McInnes or Robinson.

    Wasn't a success at Stoke
    How did he do at Shamrock Rovers? Or in charge of northern Ireland? Especially against a seemingly amazing Scotland team last week when he was in charge of a team of nobodies apart from the boy from Liverpool?

    If you are looking for a manager who can get third or fourth in the league then get someone who has either done that before in the Scottish league (McInnes for example) or a comparable league not someone who has the potential or is learning his craft. Hibs need to start employing people who have actually got success on their CV not the potential.

    If the BK are wanting someone who can manage Hibs to get to third in the league and European football , they will have someone else in mind who can do just that. I think Foley will have recognised that the Gordons and Kensells of the world couldnt choose the next manager competently and will get someone else in , most probably someone from outside Scottish football.

    NM has had his opportunity to audition for the role but he will know himself he is not up to the current job never mind trying to take Hibs to the next level.

    Let's push the boat out and go for Jose Mourinho 😁

    If it does happen at the end of the season then I just want someone who actually knows how to improve us as a team.

    Yesterday seemed to have a bit of everything, poor at the back at times, not really creating much through the middle and very poor in the final third.

    I'd take Derek McInnes in a heartbeat now. Happily ride out a few years of being a competitive team again and some solid recruitment to get ourselves back into a half decent state to actually achieve something. I cannot be arsed with another project, just give me someone that knows what its like to go away to Ross County midweek and get a result, or how the League Cup group stage works without it needing explained to them like they're five years old.

    Derek McInnes - no more projects

    Maloney - inexperienced
    LJ - no Scottish managerial experience
    Monty - see above

    It’s never been more obvious is a simple choice

    Experienced

    It’s very unfortunate.

    Can’t say how I know this but it’s straight from the horses mouth, he doesn’t want to work under an American ownership after cormack. I also don’t think a DOF would help hibs case.

    Such a shame as he’d having us competing with hearts consistently.

    The merry go round continues with absolutely mental left field appointments that are deemed ‘exciting’ and ‘a bit different’

    Craig Levein taking 6 points off us as st Johnstone manager is certainly not ****ing exciting, although it might be ‘a bit different’
    Cormack isn't an American
    Some people say I display apathy, but I don’t care what they think.

    Why is no thrills on your list? Is that not exactly what you want as a fan?

    I don’t think there’s any chance whatsoever he would want the job so your one man list isn’t as simple as you’d like.

    McInnes was the obvious choice last time and we must go for him now. Other than him I would take Ian Murray but that would be the cheap option.

    Mcinnes, o’neill, Robinson. Has to be one of those 3

    McInnes for me. It's too soon for Ian Murray and I'm just not sure about Michael O'Neil now. Alex Neil would be a shout but I think he'll end up back at Sunderland despite his acrimonious departure last time.

    Yep. We need to play the ‘hibs way’, whatever the hell that is. Would rather win football matches personally.

    That wasn't the case at all. Of course those who think the people running the club can do no wrong will blindly drink the Kool aid though.

    Maybe, but only in the long term.

    They’d get results first, and fans would take that.

    I think their “industrial” styles are just as exaggerated as the nonsense idea that Hibs play a better style of football.

    I’d take McInnes in a heartbeat and I’d be looking to try and pull in either Ian Murray or Scott Brown into the management structure too if that was possible. McInnes has the experience, knowledge and weight to make an impact on the squad and the club. Murray or Brown would bring the Hibs ‘cultural’ content we’ve been desperately missing. No danger anyone is taking a derby lightly with either of those two there.

    It’s not like we couldn’t afford it, look at the money we’ve been pushing away in manager sackings, bloated squad and Kensell’s salary.

    He's taken 6 points from 2 games thus far.

    I'll bet you money he makes it 9 points from 3 games if we finish bottom half.
    He's always been a very decent club manager and carries too much savvy for a relative rookie like NM. He'd actually do a solid job at Hibs but that will obviously never happen.

    I've stood by NM, but yesterday really exposed his inexperience.

  26. #115
    Derek McInnes but I doubt he would take it.

    For a box office move, OGS.

    However, all irrelevant because even if we lose heavily on Saturday, I don't see NM going.

    Hard to believe we're still peddling this myth after watching years of mostly dross. Fans want a team which can win games. Stlye is secondary.

    Do you have an alert or something each team McIness, Keane or Lennon are mentioned on here?

  30. #119
    McInnes is a no brainer now. However, I feel this ship has sailed.

    I reckon though that with the BK guys around the club now McInnes is not the kind of guy they would want. They will have their own guys in mind for manager. I've always felt that the last three guys appointed were either inexperienced and/or with little knowledge of the game in Scotland. Three managers who The Gordons and Kensell could manipulate and control. No danger they will be able to do this McInnes. At the AGM it was alluded that Ian Gordon still has some influence on recruitment. Another red flag for McInnes to avoid coming here.

    Much as the BK's have a minority stake in the club, surely they would not want The Gordons and Kensell selecting another manager anyway.

    What a mess.

    That second link is about a game from a season where his Aberdeen side finished 2nd in the league, 9 points clear or Rangers. I’m no sure that’s the anti-McInnes flex you think it is.
