Motm in the 2007 League cup final for me.Surging runs and at least 3 assists. Most underated player of the 'golden generation' imo.
Would be delighted if this were true.

imagining the player that left us minus some pace, but adding experience playing CL and EPL football, i'm pretty bloody excited about this. he was always a smart lad, and this side of his game will have only improved - he'll rip this division IMO.

Think he could probably replace Humphrey as a right midfielder.

My Celtic supporting colleague was giving me his usual summary of the football gossip one lunch time a few weeks ago. He said "I see Whittaker is linked with Hibs. You won't get him. Can't afford his wages." I told him to watch this space. I'd absolutely love to give him the big told you so next week! Personal point scoring aside this would be a wonderful signing. Exciting times if we pull this off.

I think he could. Not the paciest but could offer decent quality from there I think.
What I like about that is that he could sit in if SDM bombs forward.

According to one particular fanny on JKB Whittaker definitely wanted to go to them but talks broke down regarding money!
As skint as they are, can't see us offering significantly more than them so clearly he didn't want to go to them!

A guy on the Bounce, who has contacts in Whittaker's family, reckons it's a done deal.

You can't say to someone that he will always get his game irrespective of who we sign.
A manager could quit and the next manager might not fancy that player and sign someone else.
What would you expect David Gray to say, "aw I was told I would always be getting a game"?
You sign a contract to make yourself available for selection not to have it written in tablets of stone you get a game every week.

Errrrr I must have missed the memo that explains the disadvantage to having quality competition throughout the squad.
Great signing if true.

However, we'll let the jambos cheer themselves up by convincing themselves it must be to do with money and not simply the fact that Hibs got under his skin and he fell in love with the club. Oh and is sensible enough to realise how much of a shambles they are

Watch how quickly he becomes not good enough for Hearts when they were touching themselves into a frenzy thinking he was going there.

Apparently we can't pay more than hertz so we're increasing our debt again.

David Gray's form wasn't great last year, some suggest it was because of the job he was being asked to do ? I am not so sure .. If we can bring Whittaker in it brings not only good competition but gives NL options to play a different shape if and when we need to change, Whittaker can also I believe play a few different roles, in midfield and defence, I think NL is building a strong squad that has good cover in all positions
and they all want to be at Hibs ! We need to realise that who is coming in is part of a strong flexible squad ... David Gray nor Lewis Stevenson can rest on their past few years, the challenge is there to up their game ..though have to say I would like a natural left sided player in preferably to give Lewis competition as I think he will get targeted a lot next year in this league ... Definitely want Whitaker in as he will improve us a fair bit ..Last edited by eastcoasthibby; 05-06-2017 at 07:38 AM.

Great bit of business. Would still like to see us add some pace in the wide areas and another front man. I personally don't want stokes anywhere near ER at the moment. The lads is a class act but his heads all over the place and the baggage outweighs the positives for me.

Because the Muppets know that right now, any decent, semi-intelligent footballer who has a choice between us and them, will pick us - it's not rocket-science !
We're on the 'Up' - thanks to 'Playing Within Your Means' they're on the 'Plummet' !

After meeting with Cathro, I think it was mutually decided that he simply wasn't intelligent enough and didn't have the right qualities. Playing in the premiership with Norwich and the Champions league with Rangers? I'm sorry but to meet the standards at Hearts you need to have a bit more about you.
