Mister T Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 17 minutes ago, John Findlay said: Selling Boyle mid-season has been Ron Gordon's worse decision to date. Make no bones about it. Ron Gordon calls the shots. They can say they have committees for this and that, but Ron makes the final decision in the end. The old cliche. He who pays the piper calls the tune, has never been more apt as far as Hibs are concerned. Yankee-Peruvian Screwball pied piper leading the hibees rats to their doom? Yes please.

Unknown user Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 50 minutes ago, Nunya Business said: To counter the “Levein Factor”, they have the “Hibs Factor”. They need to get the next managerial appointment absolutely spot on. But even then, the structure within the club is a mess too. Their chief exec. signed off on a deal with a scam crypto company, the head of recruitment headhunted Maloney and the duds who came in January and their fans are showing new levels of apathy. They’re not in a good place at all. The zoom call was a delight, Yankee Ron sitting there telling them that recruitment in January had been a success, and not one dissenting word. Superb!

I'm hearing more and more about how headscratching their setup is. Nothing from inside the camp as such but certainly people who've always been close or are in the game in Scotland watching on agog! I think it's possibly even scattier than it looks. Big red flag would be that they've lost a good few people behind the scenes who genuinely cared about the club & the community & replaced them with faceless business execs who are there to make money. That's coming from some of their fans on twitter as well. Really makes you appreciate what we have with FOH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthVodka Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I think Maloney at times was told that certain players should be playing, surely he’d suss that mueller was murder pretty quick in training - sounds like some of the players did there can be no excuse for that Rocky guy though, I think he was a Maloney signing and is/was sheer comedy on the pitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboT Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 4 hours ago, Deevers said: Leeann Dempster (who was at least competent) left for a reason. She saw the writing on the wall with the way Gordon wanted to run the club. It’s a shambles down there - so much for Tom Farmer selling up to someone who had their best interests at heart. It’s an abject mess and I get the impression it’s going to get worse. Karma is a wonderful thing. I have to agree with this comment. We had a few laughs at Dempster but she did seem to know what she was doing and was highly thought off when she was at Motherwell. It just seemed really odd when she left to go to Queens Park, made me think there was more going on there than everyone knew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGorgie Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 East mains is ideal. Their so called state of the art training ground was built over the ruins of a clapped out dairy, which formerly was a coal mine.
