When the dust has settled at Easter Road, it must be worrying for the Hibs supporters to know that their new manager's track record for loyalty means that if there's a marked improvement in the team's performance, he'll quickly be lured away by an even bigger(!!!) team and they'll be left in the lurch.

 

Better then to hope for poor to average performance so that at least their new manager is likely to stay for a while.

 

What a dilemna!!!

I have no idea of his motives. It's taken the wind out of my sails.

There's a possibility he's after the Ibrox job which may become vacant In 2 years...When McCoist fails to make an impression in the Premiership.

 

By then, Butcher will have likely improved Hibs. He may be using them as a stepping stone back to Govan.

Have you seen the Hibs fans in the opening sequence for the Scottish football coverage on Sky Sports? Phwoar!

Feck me you are catching on     That may already have been planned !!

Doubt if anybody who's managed Hibs would ever be considered "Rangers-minded".

I suspect he burnt that bridge when he put on his green tie!

Alex McLeish??

Good point!

Putting on his green tie, Huh!

 

 Funny you should say that , I had noticed today how darn quick he was to adorn his princely neck with it and apparently over the moon with it. Hope he wakes up in a week or so with a male Leprechaun in his bed trying to get into his green pyjamas.

 

It's almost as if ICT never really existed for goodness sake.

...or Ipswich! Couldn't see him turning that opportunity down when McCarthy bins it. Hibs will give him the chance to answer the "can he handle a big club?" at interview. Given the nonsense this week, he's probably in discussion with the Ipswich chairman already...

Hibs won't, unlike ICT, offer him a new contract when they are bottom of the league.

We know how this will turn out...
