    Just my opinion but see him as another player who will get caught out with the pace of the Scottish game. Worried if this is the kind of players we're looking at. A 34 year old winger?
    Totally agree. His best days are long in the past. Hope we don't sign him. We need someome younger then 34 old winger...

    Do we hand him over to the opposition captain at our big pre-season friendly?

    We had a 33 year old winger on loan last season who scored 2 of the most important goals of last season.

    Hope this is not a sign of things to come? A 34 year old winger who averages about 12 games a season over the last 4 years?
    Couldn't be less impressed.

    For all saying that this wasn't on his Instagram, it was. If you follow him, you can view his story that he shared with his followers today and this is on it.

    If we can sign someone who can run faster than Aaron Hughes and Bruno Alves we will skoosh the league.

    Doesn't fill you with a lot of confidence does it. Of course maybe we just offered him some training facilities....

    Oh for a matchfit, uncontroversial, 20 goals a season striker to pop out of the woodwork.

    What a disaster, one minute we are looking at no one and the next minute we are letting someone I don't like train with us, maybe it's time for hibs and I to get a divorce. Worst close season ever.

    I don't think he'd be a good signing at all.

    Last played in the English Championship over 2 years ago, since then he's been in the Singapore league (where his coach said he wasn't good enough to start - http://www.espn.co.uk/football/singa...up-final-coach) and at Bury (where he only managed 7 games since January in a team that came 1 point above relegation, in a mostly dog ***** league).

    I'm glad we're getting folk in to take a look at them properly in training though.

    Pennant would be a great signing
    He would be an appalling signing.
    Has done nothing decent in 5 years.
    Not just over the hill but down in the valley below.

    If he comes it won't be for the money so my take on it is that he wants to play regularly.

    Have we really got to the stage where we can turn up our noses at this kinda quality?

    Hope he signs.

  23. #52
    No no no. I fear for us if this is the kinda player we're looking at

    We've previusly linked with Greg Stewart who match better and yonger then Pennant. Stewart signed with the Dons. And now we need to bring someone like Stewart. I think Pennant is not an equivalent replacement.

    A bit dramatic.

    We've signed 3 players that are nothing like this. No harm in having a look and he certainly has proven he has talent.

    We don't get players like him in his prime.

    I don't know our relationship with the Rangers so it may make it difficult to impossible but Forrester or O'Hallaron have got to be better shouts that Pennant. Playing 7 games last season for Bury doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. I hope we didn't overspend getting Efe and Rocky in!

    Ourselves along with the yams and Dons are being linked with everyone each other is being linked with.

    Lazy journalism IMHO!

    I am sure we will see some signings in the next week!

    If we were speaking to Stewart then does that not show we are showing the very ambition you are asking for? He chose the club who finished second and have European football this year over the club who were promoted. It's not out with the realms of possibility that his decision to go to Aberdeen wasn't purely because they paid him more.

    The comparison is quite stark.

    I agree with you here. Pennant isn't what we need.

    Forrester is mince with O'Halloran not far behind him.

    A fit Pennant even at 34 is better than those 2.

    Quality over quantity!
