Maloney / Hibs - Lee Johnson appointed ( Merged )

[Haken]

I wonder if Maloney had been told he had one game to keep his job.  He had that look about him on the lead up to Saturday.  Wee shame.

Could happen, especially if this carries on. They're already surveying fans to get their view of a new stadium elsewhere. 

[joondalupjambo]

Going against the grain here because nobody knows what was in SM's contract.  What if there was a break clause in favour of Hibs whereby if he failed to keep them in top six this season then they could shake hands and part with an agreed low sum payout.  It just seems to me that as a business man Ron the Con would not sack him knowing he has to pay off all his remaining years.

The intention behind that question should be ringing alarm bells. If I was a Hibs fan I’d be seriously worried about where my club will be jn 18 months - 2 years

Great shout. Him or some American coach but Brown has to be a shoe-in. Another rookie coach would be some risk obviously. Brown's coaching career ay Aberdeen seemed to last about 2 days. He probably won't be able to resist coming out of playing retirement as well. I hope they go for experience and McInnes would be an obvious target, even though they'd need to pay for him. That will really piss off the massive section of their support who buy into the flair myth. Or maybe they could reappoint Jack Ross

That's some clause to offer to a rookie coach. Why would Maloney accept? And remember they sacked Ross months after extending his contract at huge expense. No, they'l be paying Maloney off.

They'll go for Malky MacKay this time.

I’ve heard he’s the likely candidate.

If Robbie has any designs on any of the County players, he might be advised to make his move sooner rather than later.

There's a fall - from plotting a World Cup win for Belgium with Martinez to being SACKED BY HIBS - which is pretty much Scots for 'unemployable'.

Too late for that now. They did try to Hack Simms' Legs, but he was too quick & strong. Mind you, they managed to hack McKay, Halkett, and Haring into next week.

Funny to think that just ten days ago they were all standing in the Roseburn singing 'We've got (doo doo) Shaun Maloney' 😄

I wonder if he was sacked with "flair"..

But they won't be paying the full contact.  There will have been clear severance terms in the contract. Not necessarily low but a rookie manager would be much easier to deal with than one that others wanted. No getting away from it though, this year has cost them big.

He really was the Hibs Cathro

Cathro has coached at a much higher level than Maloney ever will.

Mind we used to get absolute pelters under VR for the amount of coaches we'd had.  Hibs had just as many and now will have overtaken us the last, say 15 years I'd think?

 

Mental considering we were the batshit club apparently just how many managerial changes they've had.

 

Always said it all about Scottish football that while Hibs were getting through managers like a Leith trollop's douchebags, at the same time, Petrie was on the 3 man committee that appointed Scotland managers!!!!  Mental!!

Mind Blowing stats.

 

They are so wrapped up in their flair , that they just cant see the wood from the trees..

 

Long may it  continue ..  

 

Will be forever grateful to my late auld man and grandad for introducing me to Edinburgh's finest when "i was a young".. 

 

Since i was young......

Take the National Express when your clubs in a mess

and Maloneys gone.

 

From the thug called Porto

No Intertoto and the fans won’t pay

 

To the jambos who know that their clubs on a role not an I Pad stole

They’re going down their club is pish.

If St Mirren beat them they could easily lose all 5 games and it would all depend on what St Mirren / St Johnstone can muster up.

Ron doesn’t give a shiny one about Hibs as a football team and he certainly doesn’t care about ‘getting the better of Hearts’ 
 

Its merely an investment. He’s trousered a large portion of the Boyle money. He’ll flog Porteous in the summer and trouser that too. The only other asset they have is Cadden so he’ll be turned around and sold and he owns some prime location Edinburgh real estate he has already heavily hinted he wants to sell and move them out of town

We should bid for Cadden, as a squad player

There are many examples of Clubs moving to a different city, especially in baseball and football (not soccer!).  It often happens when a Club unsuccessfully tries to blackmail their host city into building them a new stadium.  When they don't get the shiny new stadium, they leave town.

 

I think Portree Hibs has a nice ring to it.

Tbf with their women already playing at Livi they could just become Livi Hibs , share the stadium , though they’ll still report gates of 16000 i’d imagine

[Bazzas right boot]

The timings of the sackings are what would alarm me more if I was hibs. 

 

No plan, just knee jerk reactions. 

 

Ross got sacked before the lc final despite having credit in the bank from the previous season. 

 

Maloney survived last week when they dropped to the bottom 6 but then sack him after a narrow 2-1 defeat in the sc sf. 

Not giving him a summer is also  strange. 

 

All his signings will be like Wtf? And get me out of here, best player sold, best defender looking to move ASAP and a few injured. 

Sacking him now will make things worse for them. 

 

If St Mirren beat them this weekend for me they will finish 2nd bottom, they will crash. 

 

Big Gogs has gone full Vlad. 

They just skipped the good bit. 

Like heading straight to divorce and missing out all the new dating sex if in a relationship. 

 

I wouldn't put it past him employing an American as manager.

If St Mirren win on Saturday I’ll definitely be down the cash and carry for a massive bag of pop corn.

 

A St J win, Livi/Abn draw and a St M win this weekend and it’s all to play for.

He is very much in the Griffiths mould, he wouldn’t play for Hearts and no one (except you maybe) would want him playing for Hearts.

Outside of Cadden I just don’t see anything in them thats remotely positive. Hes the only one in their squad id even look at if available too

They were only 4 points clear of 11th at game 33. The gap is 8 this time. Unfortunately that’s probably enough this time

 

 

Unfortunately Likley true, however if they get beat of st mirren this weekend and St Johnstone win I think it will be more about what St Johnstone can do as opposed to hibs getting out of it themselves.
