List of Hibernian F.C. managers
This is a list of the people to manage Hibernian. Hibs did not officially appoint a manager until 1903 because they did not incorporate until then. From 1875 until 1903, the club were run by a committee,[1] although Dan McMichael was effectively the manager when the club won the 1901–02 Scottish Cup and the 1902–03 league championship.[2] Phil Kelso took charge for season 1903–04, but left the club in April 1904 and was replaced by Dan McMichael.[2] Long-serving managers since McMichael include Bobby Templeton, Willie McCartney, Hugh Shaw, Eddie Turnbull and Alex Miller.
Willie McCartney took charge of part of the league-winning side in 1947–48, but he died in office after a Scottish Cup match in January 1948.[3] Hugh Shaw inherited that team, and went on to win three league championships in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Alan Stubbs won the Scottish Cup in 2015–16, ending a 114-year drought in that competition. Eddie Turnbull, Alex Miller and John Collins all won one Scottish League Cup each. Bobby Templeton, Bertie Auld, Alex McLeish and Neil Lennon all won second tier championships.
