Hibernian January Transfer Window thread

[Joe]

Could this Peteborough player be Danny Swanson? His contract is up in the summer as well.

Ive heard from a good source that we are actively trying to sign boyd but nowhere near a done deal. He mentioned a few names of which Alan Hutton was the most intriguing.

Hutton was a name mentioned to me last week as well. Would be a terrific signing imo.

Edit - Now I think about it, it might have been you that mentioned it to me mate, it's fair to say I was kippered when I saw you last week

He'd be an unbelievable signing, never understand the stick he gets playing for Scotland, think he's a terrific player.

That said I think there's next to no chance, if he was to consider coming back up north again it'd surely be to the rangers and I'm sure clubs down south could offer him a lot more money than we could.

An excellent signing indeed Bingo.

Hutton wouldn't take a wage drop to go on loan in spain again there's no danger he'd come here. He's on around 60k a week apparently.

this is a bit yammish this thread, with some of the names being banded about.

60k for playing reserve team football and training with the yoof team. No wonder he doesn't want to leave.

Never say never Slenj! I am sureMr Butcher can be persuasive

Think the key word here is Unbelievable Petrie brought them in to do what they did at Inverness which was unearth talent from England and else where that are cheaper options but can be sold on for Profit He has to recoup all the money he has cost the club asking and firing .could be wrong maybe he is more ambitious than that let's wait and see

I wouldn't underestimate the pulling power of Terry Butcher. I don't think any of these names are too fanciful at all.

I suspect a good few thousand a week will be freed up as well in the next fortnight with players leaving.

There will of course have to be an agreement with these players to leave and a compensation package agreed. but we will have a few extra bob hitting about the biscuit tin for one or two. (I would hope)

Just signed for posh mate. All will become clear pretty soon I imagine! Don't want to get in trouble.

Kyle vassell possibly ? Just signed him from non league in November might want to get him game time !

For an SPL club he would be a really good signing, but at the level he has been playing at in more recent years (when he has been playing...) against Premiership teams or better International teams hes looked out of his depth. Brilliant going forward and unbelievable energy/stamina, but I think against anyone decent hes poor defensively and tends to get caught out.

I think wages would be a huge problem for a club like us, but his career is going down the toilet at the moment (he basically just plays for Scotland these days), he maybe needs to re-evaluate his position and go to a smaller club on lower wages to get his playing career back on track.

ir Hutton is still registered with villa they are due us a favour after steeling Des,time to call it in

There is no way Hutton is on 60k per week....20/25k maybe....there are very few players in the EPL on 60k per week +...and certainly no one at Villa...


Anyway, I'm sure he can get a decent move - so outside our price range I'm sure.

Hardly "World Cup Stars" we're talking about though, is it?

Murphy is well within our range and Hutton is a Scottish player who essentially failed in England. Money is one thing but he may be in a position where he's comfortable enough that getting his career back on track is what matters. I never thought we had any real chance of signing Liam Miller until we did, and to a lesser extent it was the same with Stokes.

Tyrone Barnett??

[Brightside]

No need for Boyd and no chance of Hutton.

His name certainly makes the most sense from the Posh website.

Not an out and out striker, but would really help with the supply...

See Steve Marsella.

As an aside, this info came from a Celtic source who also mentioned that Lennon is crapping himself about losing Forster, not least because he's got no real plan B in his sights.
