Will be sign anyone on the last day of the transfer window this year? A McFadden/Griffiths style coupe? A couple of youngsters from Everton? I feel fairly confident there won't be any more panic buy journeyman signed half an hour before the window closes.
I hope that era and that type of thinking is over.
Thoughts?

I think there is more chance that OTJ will go that Heff. Despite being rank rotten in both his starts,the fact he started alone suggests he's in Stubbs' plans

I can't help but feel that we are still 2 or 3 key players short of a squad that will realistically challenge at the top. Fingers crossed that Alan Stubbs brings in the additional new faces we need by the close of play. This said, I am impressed by the quality that Alan Stubbs has brought in so far. El Alagui, Gray, Kennedy and Allan will help us win more than we lose. Oxley looks a sound keeper, whilst Fontaine, hopefully, rediscovers his early Bristol City form and does the business at the back for us.

I doubt there'll be any more signing, but if there are, I don't think there'll be any 'big names' as they'll most likely be free. Sorry if I'm looking on the dark-side of things but I'm convinced RP is STILL pulling all the strings - LD might have arrived promising a better future but so far, I can't see any changes to the previous ways things have went at ER. Main one is, once again, as it has been for years, a close-season is almost over and, once again, it's glaringly obvious we are short of players that will help us do anything, let alone challenge for promotion. Meanwhile, once again, our closest rivals began getting players in at the earliest opportunity, giving these players time to settle in and bond with their new team-mates. 3 days of the transfer-window left and there's not even a sniff or a hint of further additions. Will 6 new-players (2 loanees) be enough to change a team that got relegated into a team capable of winning a league ???? ..........

Oxley isn't a long term solution, I think we'll sign a permanant keeper in January.
I'd have offloaded T-J, Heff, Craig, Robertson and Handling if I could, but I know we can only do so much at at time when they are under contract (the new Handling contract still shocks me). A CF and a RW who can also score a few goals would really help us, and maybe a versatile defensive player to cover at the back/defensive midfield.

Think we need a CF, a DM and a RB as back up to Gray.

Mmmm! With the Sparky deal looking unlikely - no chance Celtic with loan out a guy who scored and put in a good performance the day before and McFadden not coming, I get that horrible mat done feeling again about tomorrow.
Come on hibs - pull it out the bag tomorrow. Make us want to come back to ER!!!
