John Collins resigns

[Frankie 505]

New scotland manager then?

[j1mgg 3,766]

I hope not.

Full story isnt on bbc yet just breaking news

[bluenose_72 198]

petrie said yesterday no approach had been made. id be disappointed if he became new scotland boss, he is another young promising manager who will most likely miss the day to day involved in club football and will be gone by the end of the year and we will have to start all over again in search of a new manager.

It's a queer one to say the least, yesterday it's the official opening of the Hibs new training complex, today he's away!

[Stardog 11]

FFS he better not get the Scotland gig. I've almost got as much management experience as he has.

[docspiderman 1,228]

1 win, 3 draws and 2 defeats in the last 6 games may not have been good enough for Hibs with their illusions of grandeur.

[Rohan 23]

that was very out of the blue.

Opening their new training complex and all then suddenly this.

Maybe he's in for the Dunfermline job

[Boab 73]

John Collins for Fulham, ex player and all? Sanchez under pressure...

Is a surprise though this happening, big blow for Hibs

[the goal machine 7,804]

I wouldn't mind if he got the Scotland job. Has did a good job with Hibs.

Perfect timing for him going into a game againt a struggling mhanks team and he resignes 2 days before. Very weeird timing.

Hope that Hibs go to prove apoint on Sat now and heap even more pressure on wee chesney

Dead cert for Scotland, he realises Hibs are going nowhere and are just a feeder club as we all knew anyway

Good shout, Boab.

Although some Hibs fans say he is going to Celtic, after all most of his team went there, and Strachan is the next Scotland boss.

Let the rumours start.

Cheers, another interesting point

Hopefully the mhanks joab efter WGS gets the bump on Jan 3 !

[ben dirs 10]

hardly a masive shock

[chrism_scotland 165]

Bit of a shock, can see him going down south for Fulham maybe rather than going for the Scotland job, not experienced enough.

[FlippinEck 3,708]

that is very odd, he was making good progress, he might have got some money to spend and they just opened their new training complex as has been mentioned, could he be the scotland manager? maybe but im sure theres been interest from england, its a shocker and a strange one to say the least

maybe they want to take advantage of the new manager always wins his first game so they can win at parkhead

Strange one, didn't the players revolt against Collins last season?

I'm sure i read that Colllins was disappointed with the vision of the club. He wanted to keep the likes of Brown & Thomson and when they left he expected a little cash but didn't get any.

[docspiderman 1,228]

Maybe Petrie has agreed to sell the rest of the team to one or the other of the gullible sides who have over paid and donated millions in the last year for Hibs players.

[Blue Stars Bearette 1]

cheeez thats a shock...he would be wasted on the Scotland job though he should be at a club

strachan better not get the scotland job, hes got one hell of a fight on his hands for the title this year and celtic are starting to fall to pieces under the pressure. I dont want them to be be able to use the " we lost our manager halfway through the season" EXCUSE when we whip their asses and win the treble. Fecking great timing from collins though just before a match with a celtic side not on great form. Hopefully the players will want to up their game at the weekend to show the new boss what they can do, i would love to see them beat celtic. That would be a cracking christmas present!!!
