| 22. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 14:49 The grass is always greener... A Hibs fan I know said the football was dire under David Gray and he had to go. What did Scott Brown achieve at Fleetwood and Ayr? Why would Steve Clarke want to manage a Scottish Championship club? In any case, Russell Martin`s still manager of Leicester and I suspect our owners have more faith in our manager than some on here. Reply |
| 23. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 15:09 I would be sorry to see NL move on.he has the makings of a good squad and they look like a team who can compete in the premiershio if we can get out of this division. I hope he stays, there is still work to do. G Wardrope Post Edited (Wed 14 Oct 16:14) Reply |
| 24. Author: tentonhammers Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 15:23 For balance Wee Eck, do you have the comments from fans of clubs Neil Lennon has managed? Reply |
| 25. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 15:53 Well the Hibs fan said he enjoyed the football they played when NL was manager and he took them back into the Premiership. I know some Celtic fans don`t rate him but he had a decent record there. Tbh, I`m only interested in what he has done with us and I`d say `so far, so good`. Reply |
| 26. Author: The Boss Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 16:31 wee eck, Wed 14 Oct 13:09 Who said about getting rid of him? I’m sure the point of the opening post was what happens if he decides to go. What would I consider acceptable? Realistically in the top two but we aren’t going to be near promotion if we can’t score more goals. Don’t get me wrong I like Lennon. I usually agree with most of what he says post match but the point I’m making is would it be such a great loss? We haven’t achieved anything yet. I’m sure other managers in the division would like the funds and squad size we have. I like black and white (dreaming of black and white) You like black and white Run run away Reply |

| 29. Author: da_no_1 Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:10 Only 1 person mentions sacking him. Most are debating "if he goes" "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |
| 30. Author: WarringtonPar Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:13 The Boss, Wed 14 Oct 16:31 It would be a massive loss. In terms of achieving anything does a Scottish cup final not count🤷♂️ Reply |
| 31. Author: The Boss Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:19 WarringtonPar, Wed 14 Oct 17:13 I’d like to think an achievement for us would be winning a trophy and not just reaching a final. Similar to teams such as St Johnstone,St Mirren, Ross county, Inverness. I like black and white (dreaming of black and white) You like black and white Run run away Reply |

| 33. Author: The Boss Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:21 wee eck, Wed 14 Oct 16:50 So playoffs in a 10 team league is acceptable with our level spending? 🤦🏻♂️ I like black and white (dreaming of black and white) You like black and white Run run away Reply |

| 35. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:28 I am not sure there has been a high level of spending. In any case its about value not cost. The players we have at the club are mainly development players. I see it as a dual approach; develop players who may move on to other things and develop a team around those players to gain promotion. I think we are at the point where the players overall are performing as a team. You can`t legislate for players missing open goals. When that gets sorted, we are promotion candidates. The foundation is there. We have dominated in most games this season. G Wardrope Post Edited (Wed 14 Oct 17:48) Reply |
| 36. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 17:59 I see the goalposts are being moved again. It`s not good enough to reach our first Cup Final since 2007, we should have won it, regardless of the fact we were a Championship side. And the play-offs are no achievement as you only need to be 4th in a league of 10, despite the fact we`ve struggled to do it most years. For some folk it`s simple. throw a shedload of money at it and you should get instant success. Needless to say, nobody actually knows what any team`s budget is and parachute payments can be conveniently ignored. Reply |

| 40. Author: wulliepar57 Date: Wed 14th Oct 2026. 18:36 I`m not even considering this subject, every time a managers job comes up we hear it all the time they are interested in NL , maybe it` worth considering NL is happy doing what he is doing here and trying build something thatbhe can put his name against ! So as long as he is here he has my support , and we all know he is as frustrated as us at the lack of goals per chances , something i am sure will work out ok Reply |
