Broken_Glass Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 We have appointed Goodwin, Maloney is in a job for now at least. Goodwin has a track record of improvement. Maloney has nothing, he's a Glass therefore a non starter for me. Looking forward to seeing what Goodwin does in his first transfer window, who he moves on, who he targets etc. Love his interviews, no blame on players, positive, honest, just refreshing to have someone competent again in the dugout. 1 Link to comment

Apparently that gave him mythical coaching abilities. To have that squad of players at Belgium and not even come close to achieving anything is shocking. Surprised Martinez is still there. The coaches can’t be up to much Link to comment

winchester83 Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 Do you not remember AFC were chasing to sign Maloney as player / coach/ possible manager. Link to comment

paddy Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I always thought we wanted him as just a player - he all but signed but failed the medical. Then Celtic offered him a coaching role. Link to comment

winchester83 Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 Maloney would have been offered a coaching role as part of the package and with Sevco courting Mcinnes and everyone thinking he was bound for Mason Park who might takeover with a D o F supporting him? Link to comment
wicker83 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Scott Brown a shoe-in for the Hibs job Link to comment
Simply Red Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 46 minutes ago, wicker83 said: Scott Brown a shoe-in for the Hibs job Another total unknown quantity. A leader on the pitch but quiet off it apparently. No fucking danger should he be managing any spl side until he’s learnt his trade a bit. Ditto Glass, Maloney, Cathro etc. Seems really fucking obvious to me. It doesnt work. Gerrard being the obvious exception, got a few seasons and few quid, had Gary Mac as a coach, and the squad was in awe of him as soon as he walked in. Theres few ex-players out there that could do that. Certainly not Maloney, Scott Brown, Glass. These guys should be starting out in the lower leagues and find their feet. Hibs shouldve stuck with Ross or got a better proven manager as replacement. You’d have thought they wouldve learned from our DM/Glass mistake. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Kevin Thompson will be linked with it no doubt, but I reckon Hibs will move for Mackay. Link to comment
JamieMT Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Malky would be an excellent appointment, so i hope they look elsewhere. I'd have been very happy had we moved for him. Link to comment
Torry Tosser Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 After 4 months...Crazy some of these owners. OK things haven't gone well,he's only leaning the game of management,they knew that though before they gave him the job. Link to comment

Two former Hibs captains might appeal to the Hibees fans? If it's the 2 captains my suspicion is that it would be Brown manager and Thomson assistant. I honestly think Mackay would look upon it as the poisoned chalice it is. There's no guarantee he'd last a year. He'd be better off giving his current chairman a quick phone call and asking for a new contract/pay rise. McGregor can well afford to do so and might well be of a mind to do it to keep him out of Hibs' clutches Link to comment

Torry Tosser Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 That would be funny in a sense. Broon gets the job and brings his mate Glass in as assistant. Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Anyone know what's happened to hobos.net? Haven't looked in there for months, it doesn't seem to be in lockdown like they always used to fire it after a defeat.....but I cant seem to access their main forum. Registered users only now? If TT is correct about Glass being favourite it should be a fucking hoot watching the meltdown Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Tell you what, thank goodness Arbroath don’t have a wily old fox manager going into Fridays encounter against a manager who (himself) will expect to be linked.. He’d play havoc with any doubts Derek might have about Killie longer term! Link to comment

Would be seismic and rather funny. The job has McInnes written all over it. They'll realise they shouldn't have punted Ross and they'll go for him and that's why they've put Gray in charge until the summer. Link to comment

Kevin Thomson as the wild card. Far better option than Brown at the moment. Link to comment

Kevin Thomson would be an interesting shout for them but having only managed in League 2 and won it at a canter right enough i suspect they'll think it's too big a risk right now. Data Dave will be on the blower to Ron Gordon to give him some advice as we speak. ? Link to comment
