Last updated : 29 November 2011 By Steve Forbes

Hibs boss Pat Fenlon has today confirmed his management team, as he takes control of the Easter Road club.

Assistant manager Billy Brown, who only joined the club a few months ago as former boss Colin Calderwood's assistant, has been kept on at the club, and becomes No.2 to Fenlon.

Also joining the club, and following Fenlon from Irish side Bohemians, is former Ireland international Liam O'Brien.

O'Brien was No.2 to Fenlon at Bohemians, but will now take on the role of first team coach, replacing the outgoing pair Gareth Evans and Alastair Stevenson.

Speaking to the club's official website, Fenlon said:

“I'm delighted to be able to put such a strong management team together.

“Billy possesses an incredible knowledge of the Scottish game and the strengths that Liam brings will be extremely valuable to the club.

“We all share a huge passion for the game and a desire to create a winning culture here at Hibernian.”

Good to see Billy Brown being kept on, and a big welcome to Hibs for Liam O'Brien from everyone at Hibernian-Mad.
