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!

The picturea of Forrester doing the rounds give me no doubt that a 34 year old who has looked after himself is a better shout than him currently.

I can't post pictures because I'm on my phone and such things are beyond my technical capabilities but he's got some gut on him and it's all belly. If Pennant is shattered in his photo that suggests to me he was busting a gut rather than just going through the motions. Will he sign? If he does will he be any good? I've no idea but if the coaching staff feel he's performing well enough in training and the current squad are impressed by him then he's good enough for me.

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

Hope you are right. We need a new striker (Moult please) as soon as possible.

We need at least 2 strikers maybe 3 if Graham leaves!

Neil Lennon should join .net and conduct a pole:

What players should I sign?

The 5 players with the most votes should be signed immediately, whether they want to or not. The result will be the bestest ever Hibs team.

I'll put my faith in the coaching team to judge him on what they see but got to be honest this isn't exactly filling me full of confidence.. either he wasn't good enough when he was training with us last time so we didn't sign him, or he bumped us and signed for Bury instead of us after we gave him training facilities. why the second chance? he surely can't have improved?

Actually I think he could have improved. In Jan his fitness could have been shocking, he's maybe been working hard at that and he's come back a fitter, and therefore better player. Since Jan I've dropped 2 stone, down 5% body fat and my running times along side my general strength are greatly improved by following a strict regime and I'm older that Pennant. If I can do it he can.

[Pete]

Training is obviously tough and I'd be more worried if he had posted a picture saying he was enjoying himself.

As for Pennant, if he's good enough he'll join...and if he's good enough he'll surely do a good job. We won't be making signings for the sake of it and people should relax.

And I'm sure half the people judging this guy were no angels themselves when they were younger. Choirboys.net

Ideally Graham will move on with 3 coming in Aldo - or maybe 2 with Shaw getting more of a look in perhaps??

Yes it is. Moult & Stoksey in my dreams. That's probably unrealistic but i will more than happy if we sign one of them..

Not sure Shaw is ready going by some of those who watch the Development Team however NL and co will decide!

I am sure NL's master plan will be revealed in due course

Looks pretty fit to me

He made two starts for Bury. Hooked after 45 & 66 mins.
Lennon does seem to favour experience, which has merit, but I'd be way more excited if we were going after Jordan Jones, who still hasn't signed new terms at Killie or forking out for Motherwell's Chris Cadden, or St Mirren's Lewis Morgan, although paying fees is probably not realistic.

Fair play to you for your own personal achievement there mate, very impressive!
I'm still remaining sceptical with Pennants fitness though.. if his fitness was that bad back in January then i doubt Bury would have signed him in the first place, and if he had improved significantly since January then surely he would have featured more than 7 times for them.. time will tell though, as i say i've got faith in the coaching staff to make the right call when it comes!

I'd like to give pennant the same kind of deal we gave Humphreys and if he performs in the first few months then we extend it, if not we release him in January

If that's not a good reason to sign a player then what is....on the downside i dont think many people would be watching the game

[Pretty Boy]

I just want to know how anyone can judge him as 'past it' from that picture.

Every transfer window is the same utter nonsense.

His record over the last 4 years is a far better indication than the photo.

Interesting, has the pedigree but does he have the desire now. Hopefully he does and can prove it to get a deal.

You need to learn from past experience. For example who can fault the knowledge of those who assured us that Efe was a bomb scare and Commons was fat and past it? I always take posters seriously when they rush online to tell us how s***e our possible signings are.......

So does he...

[Slavers]

He has a bit of quality good pedigree might fancy a 1 year deal to see how he copes with the spl at 34.

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

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

Quality over quantity!

Mikey Forrester? Russian sailors? What the **** are you boys on eh?!

I thought Efe and Commons would be great signings but I think Pennent would be absolute mince.

looks like she's wearing clothing from our mint green range, i'd need a closer look at the label(if there's room for a label that is)to be sure it is

[S4uzee]

I thought we had stopped going for these type of players ... Sodje, Agogo spring to mind

Not just past it - in the throes of pre-senile dementia. It would be easy enough to put your top on inside out, or back to front, but only a serious sufferer would dress himself in such a way that the lettering on the badge is the wrong way round.

[Baw187]

Not crazy about this signing if it comes to pass but then again, he might do the business. Lennon knows better than me I expect.
