Keane is a terrible manager, Lambert average at best.
Not my choices. Moyes is my choice but depends if he can get the budget and control of the team.

I would like to see Norn Iron continuing to be successful but Michael O'Neill would be a great choice.

Would cost 750k to get him. Can't see Celtic wanting to pay compensation to get him though.

The IFA were thinking ahead. He knows the Scottish game well, probably should have been Hibs manager but NI benefited from Hibs loss in the end. He turned NI into winners and has been Lafferty's best manager. I certainly don't want Keane. Moyes would be great though.

Warbs is the manager of the year, he pumped your mob.

Rangers handed them a 2 goal head start and should still have had a draw. Wouldn't worry too much about that game as it was a friendly for us.

Btw, you tried the same pash, when sally was there, & look how that turned out !!

Are you telling me that because. Warbs won a tin pot third tear cup, wins the league & getting in to the final of the scottish cups better than wot Hibs have done, getting to a semi & a final, could also go up in second place to the prem ........... on the budget that hibs have, I'd say Warbs should get a run for his money, only my opinion tho

look forward to wee francos spin * rolleyes *

If you are looking at it like that then Celtic should be absolutely ashamed that their £20 million team was pumped by Rangers the other day.

Celtic weren't pumped by Rangers. We drew 2-2 and lost on penalties. Hardly a pumping. Rangers played well in first half but Celtic did better in 2nd half. Extra time was 50/50. We had 33 shots on goal, 10 on target.

Where do you get your £20m figure from?

Well done The Sons, great 2nd half fightback today, to secure a 5th season in The Championship.
Achievement & a half. 👍👍👍

Will Cove Rangers or Edinburgh City beat East Stirling in the bottom of league 2 play off decider?

It will be good to see some of the Highland and Lowland league teams replacing some of the teams who stagnate at the bottom half of league 2 every season.

How would East Stirling fare in the Lowland league next season if they get relegated?

If Cove from the Highland league get through to the final and beats East Stirling that there would be an odd number of teams in both the Highland and Lowland leagues as the Highland league would be reduced by 1 club and the Lowland league would be increased by 1 club.

Difficult to see where Edinburgh City would get the fanbase to support a league club given their ground is in Hibs heartland, a short walk from Easter Road.

I notice WWE dressed 2 of their heels (villains) up in Celtic tops today, wonder if they're trying to tell us something- https://twitter.com/RusevBUL/status/723931356460421120

Probably the best part time team in the UK all things considered. That was 9 points from 12 against St Mirren as well who were in the top league last year.

I do think there is a fair chance of east Stirling going with edinburgh coming into the league

But isn’t it better for the league that the bottom team in league 2 can get relegated now and replaced by a team from the Highland or Lowland league now.

There are a few teams in the Highland league, Lowland league and Juniors who are better than East Stirling, Montrose, Queens Park and the like. To have had such teams guaranteed to still be in league 2 after being so poor at the bottom of the table for so long was appalling.

The same 18 clubs in the once upon a time closed highland league guaranteed to be facing each other every single year for so long with no prospect of the champions to gain promotion to the main senior league was unfair on the champions.

And the champions of both the Highland and Lowland league (looks like Edinburgh City) will definitely want to be playing in the senior leagues next season and perhaps gaining promotion again in the near future.

Aye. Thanks. Don't forget we 'own' Hibs too Never thought we'd last 2 seasons in the 2nd Tier, never mind a 5th season.
It's a tough League, next season looks even harder tbh, we could be the only part-time side left, with Alloa now going down, unless Stranraer or Albion make it through the League 1 play-offs.
Look forward to visiting Tannadice next season

Looks like Lambert is favourite, touting himself at any rate.
He didn't do very well @ Blackburn though, 7th bottom of the League.
