As much advice I like Stendel, it’s a risk to see what he would try next season...but Neilson knows our league, will likely bring some decent players (Shankland fingers crossed!) and I felt he had unfinished business with us. Brought us up after one season, already showed Hibs how to do promotion. Come home Robert Yea I’m sure he will just be able to bring along Shankland no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man who signed Sammon. The man who played Juanma wide left via Aberdeen. The man who basically gave Hibs the scottish cup. What goes through the head of people on our board? They get the fans onside with all the recent statements, then drop this on us. They really don't know much about football. I kinda agree with this and I'm not blown away. That said, he was a young manager with us and you've got to think he has improved with his experiences at MK Dons and Dundee Utd. He had us flying and playing on the front foot in his 1st season with us, most importantly made a good transition to the SPL but was rough around the edges. I'm willing to get behind him 100% - and we need stability over style for the next couple of years, whatever league we find ourselves in.

teamof1958 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I thought Stendel was the wrong appointment at the time. Results under him have shown this to be correct. Re-appointing Robbie Nelson makes perfect sense anyway you want to look at it and I don't understand why factions of our support would be against it.

The Merse Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Neilson was clinging on to results previously but sometimes you can tell things aren’t right before you properly hit the skids. Just like under Levein last year, you could tell we were about to drop from near the top to mid table obscurity. And again, that end of season form was a pre-cursor for what happened this year. The majority of those backing Neilson were blindly backing Levein until far too late too. Sleep walking towards it. Holy shit, how good is it to talk about football again?
