    And in what part of that interview does he say anything about something he doesn’t understand? Ill advised and over the top, maybe. But what does he say that’s incorrect or him trying to be Fergie? If anything he was too honest as his assessment appeared spot-on (even the bit about them not playing for him again 😁)

    Hibs have sacked a manager with a lot of managerial experience, rangers sacked Beale with ample coaching experience. Malky Mackay got punted recently. That’s off the top of my head (anyone else gone?)… so the managers that have been emptied in this league so far all have experience?

    Neither hearts or Aberdeen are about to sack their managers. Whether there’s comments on kickback or here, or not. Hearts could be third again in a matter of days, Aberdeen have a cup final to look forward to, and played in Europe this season thanks to Robson’s pretty phenomenal turnaround when he took over… Admittedly he might be gone early new year depending on how the next couple of weeks go.

    Kettlewell is currently managing his second club.

    Again, players moving into coaching and management roles isn’t unique to our league, and they don’t all fail. This “ex-players pretending to be managers” thing is just a nonsense line in my opinion. The vast majority of managers across the world are ex players and all have to start somewhere.
    I think the examples I've given are all fair examples, and don't see how it's nonsense at all.

    I just don't think a top flight club is where these guys should be learning their trade. I also fully accept that you will be able to name several examples where it has worked out well for them.

    Anyways, it's no big deal, and doesn't affect us in the slightest.

    Looking at other clubs' forums' though, they're kinda screaming out for more experienced managers. I totally see why, and wouldn't be wanting Robson to be given more time if I was a Dons fan for example.

    Been a while since he actually succeeded in a job though?

    Always had the air of a good appointment and a guaranteed place on most Championship shortlists, but there's a dwindling amount of actual achievement on his CV these days.

    Another one of those weirdly inflated managers who seem to always get another job?

    Sunderland promotion when numerous others failed.

    AN is a good manager, I’d have loved Hibs to go for him had timing worked out.

    Fair enough, forgot about that.

    When he had that post-Hamilton and Preston high then I'd have loved him at Hibs and would've seen him as a potential Scotland manager. Time just seems to have left him as quite an uninspiring and unexciting manager, from the lazy outside eye.

    He got them several quick wins after they looked relegation bound under Scott Brown, so they're still very much in touch with the teams sitting above the bottom four. Likely to pick up again if the 'streaky' tag is maintained.
    Check out his latest overview on the Fleetwood Town Facebook page. Same egotistical pish about having managed big clubs and impenetrable waffle.

    Thank god we’ve got Monty.

    Probably more money and closer to home if he was still Preston based.

    Sunderland look to be about to announce Michael Beale as head coach. They sack Tony Mowbray and replace him with this clown, weird club 🤪

    It had been coming tbf, always hard for teams like this to compete in that league as Heckingbottom found out. Feel sorry for Cooper as the fans loved him but the owners looking at the monetary side of things.

    No disagreement from me but another of those who strangely don't seem to be out of a job for long though.

    He got Wolves promoted and then had them finishing 7th in the Premier League in his first season, getting them European football.

    That's a very impressive thing to have on his CV for a club the size of Wolves.

    If Cooper waits a wee bit he might be a good shout for the Forest job when they hit the Championship 😄

    Wee Lewis has been in and around the Hibs first team for about 12% of our existence. He's played for 39% of all our permanent managers.

    Most Forest fans wanted Stevie Cooper to be given more time. His name was sung at every game and not a single ‘Cooper Out’ chant from supporters. A handful of keyboard warriors however were busy demanding he was sacked. The club’s recruitment policy was part of the problem. 43 new players over last three windows - bit of a scatter gun approach.
