Brown confirmed Hibs No 2

Billy Brown has been confirmed as the assistant manager of Hibernian following the arrival of new boss Pat Fenlon from Irish outfit Bohemians.

Brown had been No 2 to previous manager Colin Calderwood and was placed in temporary charge of the team when the former Scotland defender left the club earlier this month.

Ex-Newcastle and Republic of Ireland midfielder Liam O'Brien has joined the Easter Road club as a first-team coach but Gareth Evans and Alistair Stevenson have left the club.

Fenlon said: "I'm delighted to be able to put such a strong management team together. Billy has an incredible knowledge of the Scottish game and the strengths Liam brings will be extremely valuable. We all share a huge passion for the game and a desire to create a winning culture."
