    As we think we've sorted out the technology side, and the format/guest, all that's left now is for a list of questions.

    Fire away below and we'll choose a selection of the best ones and ask as many as possible. Only rules are we want this to be really positive, so a break from the norm on recruitment/the board would be nice!

    He dosen’t know me as Young Nudger.
    Or should I say he didn’t.
    He might now.
    If you ask him if he spoke to a guy last summer outside the cafe at Elsecar Heritage - then he might admit that.
    But then again maybe not - he gave a damming verdict of the club - and because of that he upset people within the club for speaking to me (so I’m told).

    Would he have left if Patrick Cryne remained the custodian?

    And / or did he have faith in the current board’s strategy in player recruitment and sales?

    Hi Ben

    Put this to him if you dont mind.

    Having seen the club from the point of view of a fan, player, coach and head coach. How does he rate Academys and their place in our future success. How can they produce first team footballers for the Championship. Can it ever be value for money for us or will it always be a financial millstone.

    I remember he made a comment about our ability to produce anything other than centre backs by our style of coaching/play. What did this mean and what changes did he make.

    Bump (because 30 minutes on random meetings at Elsecar Heritage might be a challenge)

    Without getting into why we sold players does he think we had a realistic shot at the play offs that season?

    If he could’ve played alongside any of the team he managed, who? Why?

    you always here about the players that ‘slipped through the net’ - did we ever come close to signing someone who went on to bigger, better things?

    What happened to the Sam Morsy deal?

    What changed in the group of players that went from bottom of lg1 to beating wolves 4-0 in the championship?

    Can he explain the Angus MacDonald situation?

    Would he ever take a job as a coach after being a head coach/manager?

    Has he come close to joining another club since Hibs?

    What level is he happy getting back into football at?

    How much did he rate Scottish football?

    Has he ever spoke to winnall since he left? I remember the game v wendsday when we drew 1-1 he gave winnall a few words after the game didnt look pleasant ones, and previously said the 2 hadn't spoke since winnall went Wednesday.

    Also what did he think to Ethan pinnocks potential while he was head coach?

    I'm sure he treasures the memories of those meetings and can't wait to share them tonight!
